Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

I get it. I don't expect huge gains at all, he just thinks it's all cool. Handling will be next after the interior and engine maintenance is sorted out. Still waiting on the previous shops to...

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

Probably going to look into tunes for him once all the maintenance and car is sorted out. I am doing a major tune on my twin turbo Cadillac CTS now (HP Tuners MPVI2) should be in low 11's to high...

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

He is actually a very safe driver. I worry about theft though as I also heard people still steal them. I found a DC Sports header for him.

For the bushings is there a write up online? Will I need...

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

Love the stoptech pads on a street car. Getting ready to go CTS-V3 Brakes on my VSport and along with all the calipers I picked up the Z26 pads.

I am ready to tackle the undercarriage. That is...

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

He has new but generic tires. Once they are toast I will upgrade him to probably something from Cooper's RS3 line up. I had them on my commuters and they are great. I run the Michelin SS usually...

Re: My son bought a 1995 Accord LX yesterday.

Yesterday the locks all worked once or twice he said. I am thinking something is wiring or switch related. He has been driving the heck out of it so once he gets to a stopping point we can sit and...

Re: Whats the best headlights (bang for buck) on a 95 Accord sedan?

Re: 95 accord sedan, speaker upgrade.

Thanks, that Sony with the D class amp is interesting but I dont think it has a tuner.

What are the chances the 1995 Accord LX Sedan had the rear subframe for sway

My son just bought a 1995 Accord Sedan LX. What are the chances it can accept a rear sway bar? I was reading the early DXs didn't have the mounting holes, but later models did, being this is an LX...

Re: FB22B engine oil leak under distributor

I didn't have a lot of time to look, but that was where it seemed to come from. That should be an easy fix if so.

FB22B engine oil leak under distributor

My son's FB22B (89k miles) has a small leak right under the distributor. What is usually this fix? Also is there a shop manual out there?

Thanks
