Just got this from a friend 1989 Accord coupe

[speedpenguin]

Fixing the AC would still qualify as keeping it stock.

[bryan42688]

vac system is the only bad thing with these car's but there is no problem at all with keeping the emission systems , just make sure to take extra care of it as if you getaleak in it , you could have any number of problems as far as not starting you should tap the gas pedal to the floor everytime before you start it , this is my personal experience i have 191k on mine all stock , with a stage 1 vac removal Starts up first time everytime ,


will you be joining us at the pa meet?

[Honda_Hobby]

Got the fender fixed. Changed all oils and filters except transmission oil that one is tricky even to get to. Where and when is the meet in PA? I need to work that into my schedule.

[GLICIOUS21]

I DROPPED MINE 1.5 INCHES ON 17s WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF MODS 4 FITTMENT. THE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS PASS OVER THE WIDE REAR TIRES BY A CENTIMETER BUT THAT SHIT DONT TOUCH AT ALL.

[GLICIOUS21]

I thought about lowering it but then again I dont know if that will do anything good for the ride. As ghettogredy mentioned no power in either of these accords so going fast isn't an option. I was thinking on getting some 15inch rims tinting the windows and basically it for now. Anyone got any idea what size rims I can put on it without rolling fenders?

How are you going to walk a Celica GTS but not be able to pass an Integra LS?

Just curious.

[GLICIOUS21]

These integras had vtec n 1 had hondata ecu n other had full msd ignition mod. I aint got none of that advanced mod shit. I ran a nuespeed intake, skunk 2 injectors, straight piped exhaust and hi temp oil lines with hi pressure air hoses. My ecu, headers, ignition system was all stock but i stayed 2 car lengths with dem.my bro got a 5spd cb7 with f22. It got 9mm wires n a short ram n i beat him by a car length. D series without enternals got demolished.a20a3 aint no joke 2 b a 2.o single cam without vtec bruh.

How can this person get away with all caps?

[GLICIOUS21]

Lol. Idk what i did lol OR HOW

[Honda_Hobby]

Thanks for all the advice. Unfortunately for me mine is a carb engine so I wound a shop in new jersey that sells jdm b20a motors I want to swing by there next week to take a look and ask some question. I think that engine would be a perfect fit for my accord.

[bryan42688]

where is that shop in new jersey can i get the name and number please

[JonnyD]

nice looking coupe you got there...my driver fender looks just like your passanger one lol. damn women and hyper extending our doors :P

[9shorty20]

i actually have a set of really nice lowering springs. they rode like stock and were a little lower (maybe 1.5 or 2 inch) and i didn't have any problems with rubbing, bottoming out, or any major camber wear either. they just weren't low enough for me though. i can sell em to ya

how much??

[Honda_Hobby]

One is located at 314 colfax ave in clifton NJ (877)2497990 and the other jam engine depot I lost the adress but still got the phone number (201)9559556. Good luck hopefully they got what you need.

Yeah it's pretty clean for a 20+ year old car. But I still would like to repaint the whole body and clean everything up. As for the fender I got that straightened out and painted for $100 bucks. Those guys next to CitiField will do anything real cheap.

Truth^

And back on topic looks very clean for sure, but these damn New York plates are so ugly I'm not looking forward to putting them on my car at all

I think they kinda look good only on few cars with specific color. They remind me of british plates.

Agreed they seem to look decent on some colors but most don't look good with them the old plates seemed universal

[speedpenguin]

MD just changed their plates. I haaaate them.

The old ones were nice and simple. I'm going to be paying to transfer my old plates whenever I get a new car from now on.

[Honda_Hobby]

Took some more pictures. Its funny how this car grows on me. After driving it non stop for a whole month and 5k miles later I can't really drive my SUV anymore and putting $20 worth of gas in it everyday when it cover a whole week in accord.

haha funny how they grow on you but looks good, but it could use a drop

[Ayeobe]

Gotta love the 3rd gen. I couldnt drive the civic i got free cause i owned an 87 EX-i beforehand. Its an addiction, but it costs less than a new car, and its more comfertable, so theres realy no reason to go to rehab. lol

[Civic Accord Honda]

lol they are addicting, see the calico colored pos in my sig? i still miss that pos

[Honda_Hobby]

Yeah its totally weird. For example today i noticed a piece of plastic molding missing from the side of the drivers side door and man I got pissed. I've seen scratches the size of a book on my truck made by someone that didn't get me this angry. I'm actually planning to go to PA junkyard to look for the missing part just because it doesn't let me sleep at night. I want to find that person who broke that piece off and choke them to death.
