looking good!
Thanks alot guys!
I dont want to keep it stock, but I'm not going to shave the sidemouldings. It's a huge task to weld them shut and I'm afraid I wouldnt be able to make both sides symmetric.
Thats a very sharp observation I didnt make them yet because I couldnt decide if I should trust my measurements of where it should be or wait untill I can line it up together with the bumper. But I think it's mostly because I was lazy.. I've marked up where the holes are supposed to be according to my measurements though.
Yea those spotwelds takes a while to drill out.
I would like to get it done this year, but it wouldnt surprise me if it takes longer.
I agree with You on this one, not least those panels are wary thin, like 0.6 mm if not less than that. I'll probably gona remake mine. dnt really satisfied with my work.Originally Posted by thegreadane
About the engine, did You rebuild it at the same time as You work on the body or? I bet it going to look like ShowItem. all shiny and new.
Well. Keep on doing so You'll get it on the road this year

Hopefully but not likely hehe. Yes that's right I even forgot about the thin panels, you run a risk of warping the panels horribly, which then will require loads of bondo to make them straight again, and I dont like bondo...
Did you weld yours?
The old A20A3 engine wont be going back in. I plan on just installing one of my B20A's, which will get cleaned up and maybe get some new gaskets, but I'm not planning on any serious bling on the engine this first time around. but we'll see what happens, maybe I change my mind.
Yup, and not least while You weld, metal have tendency to wobble as well. Ouh, You mentioned it. LoL...
No i didn't weld mine thats why I will redo those, I just used FiberGlass Filler. Its strong substance, but if anything happen's at the maul for instance, someone bump in to me, it will crack. So now I'm looking for a garage and a parts car... But its least of my problems, I just noticed that cancer spread on passenger side, under rear wheel arch, so I need to do this as well.
I have a request for You. If you can find part number for me on that black box, that goes behind digidash, I'll might find, by part,nr. in Japan. Can you do it for me?
Thanks

I can look it up for you when I get time to intall my JDM EPC, but I very much doubt you can get it new from honda. I've requested other parts of that setup from honda, and nothing was available.
If anyone reeaaly wants a digi dash I suggest looking into an s2k cluster instead. they are much more simple. I helped out a friend install one in his '91 civic and that was a breeze, compared to my own digi dash.

New goodridge brakelines with stainless fittings and TUV approval. One kit for each accord. paid £173 GBP ( ~$350 US) for everything. Seems like a very nice kit.
Can You figure out how it works?
OMG!! where's it's face??!! OMG
Screw it, I'm replacing the entire rad support I decided. I didnt like all the rust spots it had everywhere. Here's the new one, which isnt from Honda so it wasnt so expencive.

It's from a company here in Denmark called NOR : http://www.nor-as.dk/
I think you have "Mekonomen" in Norway, right? They sell the parts from NOR.

I payed 2000 DKK but that was with a 31% discount.
looking good man keep it up.
that fuse box relocation is amazing, the front of the car looks nice too
lol. The fusebox relocation is finished I just need to add the battery cables and wrap all the wires back up. I like where I placed the fusebox, since theres still room for the glovecompartment and the black plastic cover that sits above your feet to cover up the blower and the heater duct.
I made the glovecompartment so that it functions normally and when I need to acces the fusebox I just pull up the tab on each side of the glovebox, and then it opens up enough to allow access to the fusebox -as illustrated on the pics. And the glovebox light will provide the lighting needed to see what your doing when you need to replace a fuse. It's as if the fusebox was meant to sit there I cant access the lower main fuses though but I think I'll be alright.
coolio
