    New 3G owner

    Hey everyone, I've been a member for about a week, so I wanted to introduce myself.

    I just bought a 3G yesterday, a white 89 Accord LX-i sedan with manual transmission and 220K miles. It runs but needs a bit of work. I'm looking forward to getting it fixed up!

    I'll post pics once I find a camera, but it's no different than any other stock LX-i you've seen before.

    Re: New 3G owner

    Thanks for the welcome, everyone! Finally, here are some pics of my 3G and RSX I took today:






    It really does have all 4 alloys, but the tire on the one you don't see is extremely dry-rotted, so I put the full size spare purchased by the previous owner on instead until I can get some new tires.

    3rdgenhatchDX - very perceptive! Yep, I'm in NM.

    I finally found my real camera (the others are cell phone pics) so here they are:


    Engine bay.


    Passenger side of the car, plus my roommate's 89 Buick.


    Interior's surprisingly comfortable considering the car's age.


    Still have the stock Honda cassette player.


    Lots of miles on this one!

    I've already benefited greatly from being a member here - seems every problem I've had so far has already been discussed, so I haven't actually had to post any question threads yet. I've already had to replace my TW sensor and resolder my main EFI relay, and I can't imagine that I would ever have thought to check those things on my own to fix my intermittent starting problems (which are finally gone!)

    For now I'm just planning on getting the car back to good working condition. After that, I haven't really decided yet, but I've got time to think about it!
