[headbanger]

Nice

[snoopyloopy]

hmmm, no ps. tempts me to just remove mine since all the fluid leaked out 18 mos ago and as a result no longer works. anything tricky when doing that i should know?

['A20A3']

nope. its all pretty cut and dry. just cap off the rack where the lines connect. keep some fluid in there.

[snoopyloopy]

yeah, i think that's where it leaked out from, so it's empty already.

[markmdz89hatch]

i like it. that's a very cancer free body on that 3G.

is that the infamous krinkle finish powdercoated valve cover?

[Joay]

Dude, I looked for those wheels for like a year and couldn't find any (that weren't on a car). Car looks good, same colors as mine.

[AccordB20A]

not a bad car

['A20A3']

thanks guys.

nope its just the red duplicolor paint hahah

i want a 2nd gen lude valve cover and i have gold paint for it


i got a good deal on the enkei's, and they're discontinued so they're hard to find.

it has a little bit of cancer - it's from jersey

but all in all its good.


i refuse to get a civic. ever.

SE-i cupholders
removal of all sound-deadening "asphalt" looking shit in the trunk, and what was underneath the rear seats

[Pico]

Looking good

[Bass Man]

Dang! That's pretty nice. Put some Fat Fives on with some 195's and you would be set.

[Dr_Snooz]

Very nice! I like.

['A20A3']

[Rendon LX-i]

so how your catchcan setup....lol reason beening im working on mine. Did you just run a hose from the pan tube to the catch can...?

[MessyHonda]

nice car.....are you still going to turbo?

[Tdurr]

super sex. That is all.

['A20A3']

so how your catchcan setup....lol reason beening im working on mine. Did you just run a hose from the pan tube to the catch can...?

yep thats exactly what i did. PCV systems kill piston rings at high rpm's.

['A20A3']

nice car.....are you still going to turbo?

i want to. badly. butttt...... i can get a GSR complete swap right now so its a pretty big tossup for me. i can replicate my brothers placeracing mounts, send in his axles to the driveshaft shop and have them make me a set, and then drop in a OBD1 GSR with a new head on it. but after spending all that money i would only be in the 14's. but i would have awesome aftermarket support. and vtakkk.

or i can spend all that cash on my turbo setup and i believe i can get it into the 12's with the stock motor and good traction. plus with all my weight reduction i think i could do it.

i dunno.

i need help. i cant make up my mind. helppppp!


what do you guys think i should do???

[Joay]

If you're keeping the car for a while I'd spring for the GSR swap. Even if you're not as fast to begin with, you'll have a way better engine and equally better possibilities for it. You can always build that motor.

If you're not set on keeping a 20-year-old Accord for a few more years maybe just buy the turbo, have some cheap laughs, and take less of a loss when you sell it.
