I noticed Messy. That's awesome... I wish I had some vtaKh!!!..lol. I didn't even realize you were doing a b-series swap until I saw Roger post the pictures on Facebook.
Seriously though, I am hoping to drop a vtec head on the motor over winter along with some other power goodies.. Heck, I still havent even driven the car with the new motor, I am getting so impatient sitting here wanting to drive it! Only a few more weeks though until I am re-united with her!

yeah i had not driven my car since sep09 so when i got to drive it i had a blast. never owned a vtec car so i need to relearn how to drive this thing. now i know why they come with LSD because the front left tire breaks lose if you drop the clutch too fast

The Accord is on the road, and has made her way to the stereo shop. Western finals for IASCA and USACi are in just under two weeks and I plan to be making an appearance and seeing what she can do.
Check engine light came on while my buddy was driving it, but I imagine that is because there is no intake on the car and crank vent on IM is open right now. I will scan it for codes though before driving home, and see what it says.
Word is she drives well though, and pulls pretty decent.... I am getting so impatient, I cant friggin wait to drive this thing!!!!

I will be taking all of my camera gear, and my GoPro HD with me when I go to pick up the car this weekend. I leave on a plane tomorrow night, but won't get to see the car until Saturday. I will be sure to take lots of pics and video this weekend Messt, and will post them up once I get back into town on Monday night/Tuesday.

Well... Roughly 10 hours later, and 1200kms, I made it home with the accord. I am super tired, but the drive went off without a hitch! I do have a check engine light on, but I believe it has something to do with a disconected vacuum hose, I will sort it out shortly.
Car drove great, and I took a couple of pics, but will take lots more this week... But for now I am super tired and going to sleep. Stay tuned 3geez! Lol

Glad to hear you made it, too bad you couldn't stop by for a visit!
Cool beans man! glad you made it back home safe!
Thanks guys. Roach, sorry I couldn't stop by either. I was already a day late heading back for work. Had a super busy week/weekend getting caught up with work and such, haven't had a chance to snap new pics, maybe tonight.

It's all good man, we live decently closer now so it's still possible to meet up in the future.
Any updates?
yeah have you dohc vtecked this beast yet lol
I've been pretty busy with work and such lately, haven't been on the forum for a while.
Finally got around to swapping my rear discs on, got all the SS brake lines on and such too. Just order a new VSS, and probably ordering a reman steering rack this week too. Aside from that the Accord hasn't gotten much attention as I was out of town for a little while. Next up is replacing my shitty ground controls and such... time for real suspension.

The sleeves on the rear are kind of messed up, as in I woulnd't really feel comfortable selling them to anyone. But the fronts and front Koni's will be up for grabs.
