Well, I am sitting here thinking of going to sleep, but I'm pretty much wide awake, so I figured I would post up some of the goodies I have waiting around for the accord. Lots of the other bits are stashed in my piles in my basement, and as you can see it is a bit of a mess... So, those will be found only when they need to be hahaha.
So, to start it off, some of the stereo bits that will be going in... Alpine DVA-7996 & XM box were in the car already, now to come are Focal 165KRX2 component speakers, Steg K4.02 (This will run the 165KRX2 actively), Alpine PXA-H701 processor, and RUX-C700 Controller (i tracked down an older one and swapped mine with someone so all LED's match). Still to come: Steg K2.02 (sub amp) & Focal 21wx x2.
Next, the all important b-swap parts. PRI mount kit, axles, rywire obd-0 to obd-1 harness, hasport hydro clutch converter and civic clutch MC (will try and make this setup work). Not pictured are the wiring harness, and shift linkage.
Now, some of the JDM & EDM goods. EDM taillights and rear fogs, JDM corners, JDM wing, EDM/JDM fogs.... I have power folding mirrors and digi climate controls kicking around somewhere too.
Now, we finally cleaned our garage out before winter hit... I think this basement is going to be my next project. Clean this up, organize my car parts and create a space where I can lock myself away and listen to music, chill on my computer, and generally be left alone... only space like that now in the house is my bedroom, which sucks.
Here is the mess now:
in that pile are many parts such as: sway bars, new carpet and floor mats, oem car cover, misc trim pieces for interior, etc....

Oooh I can tell this is going to turn out awesome!
Wow! Focal is nice stuff, and you got their component set, which will sound increadible!
Bass like Base... Not fish.
Dibs on the foglights!
When are you going to pimp it with the new engine and all? Do you still need to get the engine or do you have one already?
Yup, I love my Focal. I had a set of Morel's in the accord last year, but didn't like them too much, so last summer I ran Focal 165VB, now those are going to civic duty, and I took advantage of my discount for the new ones before we all quit at my last job.
Never!!! I love my fogs! ahah.
I am hoping that by the time the roads are clear in the spring that I will have it up and going with pretty much everything. I do still need to get a motor, but I have a couple hook-ups for that who I will call on when needed.
I have had a shitty fall with some personal/medical issues and such which pretty much halted funds coming in... Now that I am back on my feet I am going to Vegas in January too hahaha. Once that mess is over, focus will be back on the accord.

200+ ALL MOTOR LS VTEC
Well, a bit of a delay happened with being unemployed over the winter, but I have a good job now, which includes being able to get parts at cost, so things are back under way.
2 Weeks ago, I had my buddy Chris over to help me finish pulling my motor. It has been a few years since I pulled my last motor, so this was kind of a pain in the ass. Getting the axles to come out of the transmission proved to be a bitch, and we ran into a couple stupid mistakes pulling the motor out (forgot to disconnect things lol) but a little while later the motor was finally out.
Motor pretty much ready to come out, me playing with axle

Now... I have been contemplating for a very long time what motor to go with in my car. I still haven't entirely made up my mind as to my future motor plans, but I will either be boosting the new motor, or putting a vtec head on it and going NA.
My reason for choosing the B20z; The motor was inexpensive, I have had other priorities come up to spend my money on, and I want the accord back on the road. It has really good torque and decent hp output, and leaves me open with options for modding.
I am currently deciding what clutch to order, and will be doing that this week hopefully, then I will do a few tune up things to the motor before dropping it in.
Got the motor from a local shop www.jdmsource.ca I got a very clean motor, and a good price. They even delivered it to my house for free.
Integra S1 transmission... cheap and cable.. I don't like the feel of hydro clutch as much.
When removing my radiator hoses... my upper rad hose took a huge chunk of the upper end tank with it, so I decided to get a new radiator. After some research and measurement, I came up with this:
Mishimoto full size CRX radiator
Fits pretty well... I have a spare upper rad crossmember which I will hack up for a trial fit.
