    Mine...

    If i got asked to describe my car in one word, id have to say, S T O C K!
    The only thing ive done to it so far it put a new sound system in it, painted a few interior parts, and taken off the falling-down roof liner, which is on my to do list to fix... anyways, feedback wanted for stuff i can to to this thing to make it better







    Yes i know the wheel covers are gay, but the next thing i want is a set of nice big shiney rims!

    Remove pinstripe, no white letter tires, replace taillight, remove "pioneer" sticker from dash. You'll be set after that. Nice looking car otherwise and I wish I had that engine.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    Clean Looking ride! :cool2: Normally, from what I have noticed, the quickest and easiest thing you can do to totally upgrade the look of your car is to get a custom set of wheels and tires! And if you want to see how your car will look, just check aroung this board. Other than that, your car, your tastes! If it were me, I would do a paint job. I never liked the black bumpguard on the doors and matching black section on the bumpers. Here is a link to my car, where you can see how clean they look with the black painted to match the car.

    Firstly the white letter tires i did ages ago, and after the first few days i thought it looked stupid, but i havent got around to getting any tyre black to paint the browish tyres, or tried to clean it off. The pinstripes i dont mind too much at the moment, but when i get enough money a paint job is a must, and i do agree with you paynt3r, you car does look a lot cleaner with the mouldings and bumpers painted, but if i did mine, it would stand out because the rest of my car is off-white. I should try polishing it to fix that. I dont like the blackness of my bumpers, so i tried to buy some like this: But another guy got to the car before me, so i missed out. I liked them better with the white on either side of the black bit. At the same time if i got that car, i would of been able to replace my tail lighs as well, to the ones like most of you guys have, as supposed to the "block" ones like mine. Pioneer sticker on the dash will come off when i paint the dash, i just stuck it on there to see what it would look like. Kroy, the red thing under the hood ARE airhorns, and i tell you, with Timaru drivers, i wouldnt be without them
    Wheww, that was a lot. Cheers for your comments guys Feel free to write more if you can be bothered, and i hope those pictures/links start working for y'all!

    Lol, sorry to all you guys wanting RHD Conversion kits, the reason why mine is a rhd is because i live in New Zealand, and incase you didnt know (Im sure you would) We drive on the left hand side of the road I dont know where youd get one from, only thing i can think of is if you import a RHD if you really wanted one lol. And Crwa, wouldnt you rather have your 88 lx-i than my 86 exl.s lol?

    that car is great. gotta love the B20! i say keep the dual tip exhaust look. keep the white paint. as for wheels, dont get anything chrome, unless it looks quite sporty. i wish we had sportier 3gees here in the U.S. i think i could get one from south america that was not U.S. type, but anyway, i like your car...my bad, B18. i only looked at the valve cover! cool anyway.

    yeah that's the same b18A from the US 90-93 integras, not a b20a. except the US teg's b18a is fuel injected. the fuel injected version of the euro/JDM accords is the b20a. anyways, if you guys wanted that engine, just swap one off a teg and call it a day. you can always bore out the b18a by 0.2 liters and new 2.0L high compression pistons with forged rods and you got yourself a kickass b20a. it's a direct bolt-on with placeracing mounts or european or JDM mounts like that 3gee right there. that's what i'm planning for my next new engine. get a 90-93 teg b18a remanufactured and bored out to 2 liters with JDM mounts or placeracing mounts....whichever is cheapest.....with performance internals. i wonder if Sean can do this for me....hmm....plus with Sean's turbo....damn!! b20a turbo power.

    ...

    Most of the jap accords came out with dual tip exhausts i think. I will keep it, until i get a sports exhaust. i could stick one out each side but i dont think that would benifit me that much. I dont think my car looks ultra sporty - the coupes look more sporty lol, so i wasnt really planning to get anything too chromey for the wheels, id like some 5 spoke mags, like Stalker whites or somthing along those lines. Back onto the RHD thing, if you really wanted to get your car changed over, im sure there would be a company over there that could do it. Ive heard of some place over here converting cars from LH to RHD, so im guessing its not impossible. The engine is a B18a, but thanks to the cold weather of this "summer" and sitting outside in the frost (I think ive got problems? i should try living where some of you guys live lol. mind you if they call this summer, come winter we will probably end out getting snow ), its not preforming how it should. really really sluggish and very unsmooth gear changes sometimes (Not thanks to my driving :p). So im going to give it a tuneup, and after that put a new cold air intake in and after that a new exhaust. after that it might be a tad better. But on only $50 a week, (Part time, still at school) that might take a while
    Cheers for comments

    If that's the same b18a as the integra's, are the mounts the same as the a20?? Or did honda make its own mount conversion to put a b-series into the 3g?
