Got any pics of how you installed the hood pins? I've been thinking about getting some of those aerocatch pins also, but wasn't sure how they would fit on the hood since the pins are flat and the hood has several different curves.

thats the only pictures i have really. They fit pretty well. they of course had to be installed backwards so that i didn't have to build fancy tabs to hold the posts. other than that they work great.
Looks good nice job, thats the same spot I was thinking about installing them. If you get a chance snap a pic of the under side of the hood.
hehe okay... its just cut away with a dremel and maybe a 4" makita grinder. its not pretty yet, but i can take some pics to show what we did.![]()
It doesn't have to be pretty it just has to work.![]()
ya thats a good motto, i share the sentiments lol it works just fine...
nice wheels!!!
holly shit they look awesome!! hella cool how much were they?
and them tires are begging to be burnt out
1988 Honda Accord LX-i Coupe 123k miles.
haha those are brand new 0 mile Hankook RS-2's, they won't be burn off if i can help it.
hoodpins were about 90 bucks i think.
Very nice work Boba!
You are inspiring me to see if I can get any work done on mine.
What kind of timeline are you setting for yourself right now?
And whats wrong with looking good AND working right!![]()
i still say that the intercooler you have is only big enough to cool a fart blowing threw it... not the T3/T4![]()
im just saying
Put on your gas masks... this shit runs rich
Yeah I agree, I may be pushing my luck once I get up to my power level goals.Oh well, bigger intercooler can be arranged if I hit that roadblock.
How much hp does that ic support?
I think I might have the same problem as you. My ic is supposedly only able to folw enough for up to 350 crank hp.

my turbo is good for 678 cfm... http://cheapturbo.stores.yahoo.net/gat357trw63a.html
hahah but is the head prepared to flow 500 cfm?? who knows...
dunno what kind of hacks it will take to fit something like this: http://www.siliconeintakes.com/produ...ec27b7d7709fb4
Well my intercooler is the same size as both of yours so i guess we'll just have to see how it goes.
tires shredding yet?

Alex, i was talking to Chris yesterday when we were putting everything back together and I asked him about driving it and he said, "of course, everybody who has put a lot of hours into this can drive it, you, Zeph, Alex"
i laughed and said ALEX???!?! he didnt do shit
chris then replied yeah but still... he mostly pissed me off by distracting me when i would work on it.
so yes alex even having relativity no part in the build you still get to drive it, thus showing that you are in higher favor as a friend then anyone else.
enjoy

Alex did a lot of heavy looking on in the beginning phases and helped out with motor swap... IIRC... it was all sooooo long ago.You all put in your time!
Yeah its funny how plans change, you can tell how my sickness evolved throughout the thread. Definitely not going to be a low budget daily driver build. Although I sometimes wish it was hehe.
The car is pretty well buttoned up again and just needs me to throw on the 1 bar map and restart the tuning process. We will see how it goes...
Hey nick, shove it.
Zeph had to redo all the work you did anyway.
I sit and talk/listen to Chris all day long at work lol.
And besides, I already have a quick car to drive --- where's yours?
Wow....Alex told you lol...Damn chris im ready to see how she flys....I want a ride in it to if its a okay with you. You can even drive my boosted 3geez. your a good friend. Put some pics up bro and some vids man.
