Re: CAH:1991 Honda Accord EX Coupe
took my hub in to get new bearing pressed in they said the hub was fucked went to junkyard grabed a whole spindle for $75 it has some bearing play will need to get it replaced in near future but it didnt seem to make any noise when moving the car around the driveway.. insureince company is closed so i cant test drive it until tomarrow
Re: CAH:1991 Honda Accord EX Coupe
Man I kind of liked that fake wood nonsense. :lol: Looking good though, if you put as much work into this as the CAHatch I'm sure it'll turn out awesome.

Aww, all that for nothing :gun: Did you try and reset the ecu by unplugging the battery for a bit?
Might as well just go for a new one in my opinion lol.
Re: CAH:1991 Honda Accord EX Coupe
