I think I know where the next meet's going to be. Damn.Didn't really like the way this one turned out, but it's a good example of what 250 North out of WV looks like:
That goes on for like an hour.
Uh-oh. What's this filthy mess?
Yes, indeed. Still not entirely connected thanks to my outrageously rusted cat flange.
Still not quite finished with this piece; the driver-side bracket is fubar'd, dropped it off at the shop this morning.
New (to me) head unit - this replaced the OEM tape deck, which still works. I can play CDs now!
2 x Infinity Reference 1052w 10" - I actually bought one of these three years ago to put in my Prelude, but wrecked it before I got around to it. Bought the other one a couple weeks ago. Both brand new, never opened like five years after they were made.
Rust is a little worse than I thought it was... got two new quarter panels in the basement waiting to go on.
So yeah, actually been getting some crap done this summer. I still have a couple other parts on the way and a few other things in the shop waiting to be put on. School starts back up next week so time and funding will be dramatically reduced for a while. Spent most of my time working on someone else's car actually.
More to come!
holly shit dude...nice goodies. Funny thing when i got my accord.....At the junk yard....it came with the DC strut bar LOL....i was like HOLLY SHIT. your coupe is clean guy. O BTW i put slice on each hole on that rusty cat flange(with a cut off wheel)...then hit the bolt with a punch and wala came out....took me a good hour or 2...but that shit is coming off as we speak.

Nice new toys for the ride
Wow that much have been a shocker... I've only seen A20A3's in person before this one. I guess there are more than a couple members with them but I'm still psyched to have one. And I think those bolts are actually pressed into the flange. I cut one off (took like half an hour, shitty air compressor) and the other half still wouldn't budge. It has all these little grooves around it that make it look like it was pressed. Whatever, I'm having a shop smash them out tomorrow.
Heck yeah, I'm pumped. Looking at your many engine bay pictures has really got me motivated to put nice stuff on.
looks great man! and dont hate on the rust! its weight reduction

Honestly, at first (when it was half-ass connected) I was disappointed. Seemed like it lost torque below 3 and didn't really do anything else. After I had the flange fixed, it sounds a lot deeper and at around 4500 it starts making some power. I'd definitely buy it again.
congrats...il hope my coupe will be dc'ed up buy next month

Labor Day weekend at the shop:
'After' shots:
It's getting there.Got at least one more minor project to finish before winter.
DC short shifter:
Hits the heat shield constantly, and obviously needs a new boot. The knob came with it, that'll be leaving eventually also.
