    Today I tightened up my alternator belt and lubed my speedo cable, and even though the cable still rattles it just drives so great.

    Re: My 1988 Honda Accord Lxi, Still Under Consruction

    I don't think that i could ever sell my accord, one of the main reasons is that, it is my first honda and i love her to death. My wife even told me that i am not allowed to sell her, cause she likes her to much, and she has never owned a honda ever. And yes i konw that i am talking about my car as if she was a person the kicker is she is. She has her up downs and about 1 week out of the month she is a bitch, but anyway there is no way i could get rid of her at all.

    it was made by a member here on the forum, Justin86.
    here's a link in the trading post https://www.3geez.com/forum/sr_classi...p?do=ad&id=109
    the strut bar in the pic is a new design he made, it's a single bar instead of dual

    Bad thing is that i have had 2 other accord 89 sedan and a 89 coupe, i took the motor and tranny out of one to build up on. and used the other one for body parts and interior parts, the kicker is they both ran, Besides the coupe needed a head gasket, I had to scrap them cause the people i brought them from dipped out of state and forgot to give me the titles. I only payed 400 for one and 250 for the other. They are all over the place here around Cincinnati

    No i actually got them from this website, they don't carry them any more but HELLA brand is just a good. What ever you do, do not get the headlights with the city lights in them, they leak and cause moisture to get inside and destroys the inside. but here is the link to the HELLA ones, a little more costly, and you could probable find them on eBay. Good Luck
