Good work, looking much nicer.
Is that alternator fitting well? Looks like the position of fixing eyes (the two holes where fixing bolts go through) seems to be a bit different from mine. Am wondering if it fit well? I am also considering replacing alternator and I noticed there seems to be two variations.
Is yours A/T? If so, I strongly recommend Honda genuine ATF (I know it is a bit expensive) as our A/T needs very specific ATF specification.

Plus, if you want to experience real smoothness of the Honda A/T, I recommend to replace all the ATF by disconnect the 2 ATF hoses at the bottom of the radiator and replace as much as possible.
Believe me that would be day and night difference in the smoothness.

good work
The alternator is for the Carborator model. They gave me the wrong one at store. I took some pictures try to bolt it on i couldn't and there i found the problem. I returned that one and ordered from ebay.com one for $14. At the store was $65. The one i got now it has four connecting holes/pins the carb one had only three.
About the A/T fluid i will change it and i'll let you know what happend. It works pretty good so far, but i 'll take your advice and get some Honda A/T Fluid. Thanks Again
Thanks man. The car is good and it runs like a champ. I'll change the fluid as the epic1400cs recomended.good work
Thanks again

looks like you are enjoying the hell outta your 3g.
are they an awesome car or what eh
ha! that gutted interior pic reminds me of my car when i first got it. it was that same color but the paint was really bad so i just sprayed it flat black. when i gutted my interior it looked just like that too.
Yes man, the car is good, gas is cheap "for now", beer is cold the B-B-Q is warm, come and join me.....
My paint is bad too, not a big deal, inside is clean like a 5 star Hotel. got to take same pictures. Thanks
I miss that B-B-Q, but there is always next week.
I guess the bird wanted some of the BBQ
cool pics
holy crap thats a big bird.
anyways. overall the car looks clean. looks good.
WTF is that a heron?
This thread is awesome.Keep up the good work man.
yep, looks like a great blue heron. those faakers can be very nasty. Not as nasty as a swan, but they have pin-point accuracy (and fast at that) with their beaks (sp?).
Looks like a great little camp-out spot. Didn't they have some woods where you could have setup the tent instead of a parking lot? Car does look good though. Glad that purchase worked out for you.
