    Re: Turbo Accords... who still has one?

    I still have my setup but its apart once again and it will be until i find out whats going wrong with it. At the moment im looking at buying a new car so far iv looked at an 06 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT and i want to look at the 06 Civic Si but it wont be released until december. I have things going with work that will make a big change in my income so things might work out. At the moment i just want to strip the entire car and do it all the way body, interior, and engine all in one shot instead of one area at a time.

    We shall see how winter goes right now the accord has a stock B20A in it and is running other than i just found the radiator upper core is cracked and now leaking and the injector seals are leaking so more than likely i will rip it all apart and get the body work rolling if i dont get caught up in a new car.

    Turbo's are very addicting so i still want to finish this thing. I got a lot of attention this summer with it and never got the chance to race the thing against another car so i cant say how fast it really was. But it was a lot faster than the stock B20A i can tell you that and i could rip tire (with the LSD) at higher speeds than i ever expected. Its fun but frustraiting as hell with all the time and money invested so hopefully the new shop i plan to use has some good insight on whats going on.

    I was wondering what were you up to with your car. The above statement answers my quesitons.

    How is Steve and his LS/Vtec doing? How about Mark? I got a new number and have to give him a call.

    Dont know i have not seem them in a bit. Im starting to get my motivation back after going to my friends shop tonight and seeing a skyline motor in a 1972 Nissan "Z" plus my friend just got a late 90's V8 TT Lotus. If things work out i will get my car in his shop for winter and rip it all apart and start from scratch and do a full body restoration bottom up.

    And i got some new stuff going into the accord if i get my way so we will see how it plays out in the spring.
