Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
I dont wanna do any more body work until after my turbo is all said and done...
Yes i have beaten turbo b16's and b18's before... Believe me or not...
Mods: Greddy Evo2, straight 2.5" piping from the header back, JRP Race header, ECU Reflash, Custom Intake, Skunk2 race springs, rebuilt tranny, and a few other small things that i cant think of...
Also running on royal purple and i have race plugs in that are diamond cut, along with some 99 octane gas.

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
Wow where did this kid come from?
I never seen this kid rolling around town. Please private message me so we can meet up and do some runs. I have a camera and I wanna capture this magical F22B1 in action versus some fast cars.

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
Yeah I have a 95 ex and on my best day im not pullin on a boosted b series unless they let you win!
Door handles same color as car (not carbon fiber sticker!)
Need to be lower
Rims are weak
Need front splash guards to not just the rear
Skunk2 sticker needs to go along with the AGX ones
The pep boys Honda license plate needs to go
I say slam the **** out of it and get better wheels!
also get rid of the ebay brand corners, bumper lights, and grill. and painted brake drums = not cool.
And dont let people put you down for driving an accord.

accords are so specialized that parts are only had in forums you mentioned, ebay, craigslist, and the like. there is no main area to get them. that's why i like building accords, the parts are harder to get and work them in together is an art!
Basically you cant build a cd like an dc or eg. its something that should take time and you should be able to be proud of your car when its done.

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
I think oem headlights/corner lights would look better, with an oem front lip.
I dont think your wheels look good on your car at all, white or black.

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
im getting alot of different answers here and ideas! I like this! As far as the lights, i am gonna get JDM Corners sooner or later, after i start some body work. These are just stand ins because my oem ones were like nasty *** yellow. My splash guards rubbed all over when i drove so i took them off, i cant go any lower because i already bottom out like crazy, or trust me i would. The wheels are sex to me but im sure sooner or later they will be changed too, im looking into a CF grill and a lip but im pretty sure i wont get a CF lip because it will be ripped off by a parking bumper or a driveway sooner or later. The bumper is going to go asap anyways because it doesnt mount up right for some reason... And the hood will become CF when i do my body work as well! Thats about all i can think of right now.
Oh and im looking at buying a JDM F22 to build after i boost this motor because i know sooner or later i will blow this motor because it has 185k miles on it and boost is gonna hate that... So i was trying to find one right after i get my turbo build done.
Just a few of my ideas, just need some money to do it now.
Oh and i have an idea for a tranny that is still in the making, but im talking to a guy...

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
I don't think you got the "hopes and dreams" concept.. Also boosting a F22 is garbage, and I don't know how you can beat a boosted b16 or b18 either while being N/A. My accord can keep up with b16 and pull an LS and that's with both cars N/A.. And my car has a K series in it so I think you might need to wake up from that dream of yours... As far as the rims being rare? Looks like something from Sears. I think I need to find some of our sick 5th gens from Hawaii and give you a few examples of that your car needs to look like.. This thread made me LOL...

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
And when you say that you have tranny ideas, I hope you mean something like a 5 speed swap.. But honestly just get rid of the car and buy a hatch maybe...

Yeah an accord isnt something you should take on if you are not willing to go 110% its not like a hatch or dc. You have to have a love for it and its not for everyone

Re: My 5 Gen Accord!
I have no budget! I spend about 95% of my money on my car when i can. Im still in school so i cant work full time so i cant make as much as i'd like to. Otherwise i would have more done to it! I got my JDM CF Type R Spoiler in today. That will go on soon, CF Mugen style front and rear lips, Hood, and Grill will be on as soon as i finish my custom turbo build. Shouldnt take more than a month to get that done before i tune it. Then as far as the 5 spd thing goes, i cant really explain it so i will just let your imaginations run wild... Its gonna be an auto but with independent bodies in it so i can shift into first at anything lower than 80 or so and have hella torque from a roll but at the same time i will have a gear to launch out of from a dig. And when i dont want to shift i can just put it in D and go with the auto style. I will try to find a video of my friend's Camaro that did it, its bad ***!
