    Talking I love my new car

    To start im A20A3's brother and i used to have a 87 hatch but i had to sell it. i just resently purchased steveDX's accord and im very impressed with all the time, dedication and effort that was put into this car. im very surprised no one else bought this car. I was gonna go CB7 but, i saw saw this car in the market place and had to buy it. as far as the oil pressure problem im convinced it's the hose and/or gauge. the motor sounds great no signs of low oil pressure cold or after it's warm. the shifter bushing has been ordered from honda, it's on the way. im having the front lower control arms replaced with the ones that came with the car and it's going to be aligned as well. I bought a new battery today and the car starts right up everytime now. sounds great. great job steve. pics coming soon. all in all, definitely an awesome 3G Accord.

    Re: I love my new car

    i fixed the low oil presure, it was the hose with the fittings to the gauge. i put a new on on today and it fixed the problem. i got the shifter bushing and im ready to put that in. when i get my DL in like 2 weeks ill be having the car inspected and i will be driving it around easton. steve thank you very much just keeping you posted if your reading this.

    I was wanting to buy this car, but as with the rest of the 3geez community, I could never afford it.

    Great buy!

    Re: I love my new car

    damn someone actually bought it... i was going to buy it but finances ran tight.

    since its in easton MD....i would like to know if you and your bro would be interested in a car meet back in york,PA on june 23rd? steve you can come out and see your car. the meet is at john rudy county park. it is a civic meet but not only civics attend. last year we had everything from a camaro SS to a damn geo metro. but it was fun times. everyone there would appreciate the work done to this car...i know i have in the past. ive met steve in person and seen this car in person and let me tell you. this car is no joke.

    heres a link to the thread about the meet. http://www.clubcivic.com/board/showthread.php?t=103012

    anyone here is welcome to come along. we love all hondas! lol but if you want to go please register there and post that youll be there...or just show up. we will have a cookout but please post there if you plan on eating at the cookout...so we know how much stuff to buy..

    the guy organizing the meet has a new FiT but....he has to trade it in on a pickup truck for family reasons...were all not happy about it but you gotta do what you gotta do.

    Re: I love my new car

    yeah the motor in that car is solid no leaks, and the oil PSI turned out to be the gauge line after all. steve definitely did a great job and i would definitely be interested in replicating the mounts/linkage/maybe axles/whatever possible later on down the line if anyone might be possibly interested...

    i'll be making sure he doesn't kill it...

    Re: I love my new car

    Glad to hear you got the oil pressure problem fixed. That pisses me off tho cause I could have been driving it for a year instead of it sitting around. Oh well. Keep me posted with your progress and I'm glad you're happy with it.

    On a side note, I'm now looking for my new car. Turbo power coming soon.

    Re: I love my new car

    update : car crapped out coming back from a clubrsx meet across the bay. $200 to get it towed back(at 1 in the morning hahah) we thought it was spark, disassembled the dizzy and put it back together and back on, no problems with spark. fuel press. started diving so we think it's the pump. the pump is getting power so i dunno. we got tired of coming to dead ends with it so it's at the shop right now. me and naggzy(my bro) are looking into a JDM LS and then putting his vtec head on it, or CRVtec...pics and updates coming soo. (we finally have access to a digital camera now!)
