I used to live right down the street from there off Winchester and Hamilton right behind th McD. My Family lives right off Bascume by the Collage.

 

I used to work on hamilton at the jiffy lube right there. Jiffy lube on hamilton and san thomas express way.

 

Would that be by the mall,or the other way? Not the mall off San Carlos,but the one with the big target.

 

yea.

 

So i am pupped up right now. I have been looking for some D1S HIDs that have the aftermarket wires for the ballast i have. Well There was a guy with a grate feedback on ebay selling some 6k bulbs,but know one made a bid and there was only 2min left on it. So my horns popped out and at the last min,i made a $10.00 bid and won..lol
Now i have everything i need to do the fitting.

 

Hey im kinda new to the tuning scene, Ive been interested in it since i was just a little kid but now I'm 19 years old and i own a 2000 honda accord EX with an f23a1 engine (graduation gift last year) that is so far completely stock except for the new intake i just installed (by myself) and the stereo i installed in it last summer. I know it was kind of a cheap intake, i plan on buying an elbow and a straight intake tube to convert it into a cold air intake for now since i dont have much money being that im a college student and cant work many hours to make enough money. I dont have many pictures of my car but this is something that i do plan to build more on top of so that it is a car i can call my own, and it wont be like any other regular accord. Though i will be throwing in the wrench time i am open to any suggestions about my setup and any advice. I am posting in the "Built not bought" thread because that is exactly what i plan to do, and im still new here.

 

Welcome to the forum man. The best way to look for ideas on building your ride is to look through the forms. Please,lets see the pics of the car man. What other plans you got for her?

 

Here are a couple pics, i hope they show up on here (i already tried including one pic on my first post) i took that one with my cell phone the day that i got the car and then this one i took a few days ago after installing the new intake (used a much better camera)

here are the links in case the pics dont show up on the thread

Like i said i plan on doing the cold air intake, new header and new exhaust system. I thought about maybe putting on a body kit at some point but i may just do a lip kit instead. ill probably get new coilovers and lower it a tad bit more, brembo brakes and as for rims ill probably keep them stock till i need to buy new tires considering i also just bought new michelin tires in december since the tires that came with my car had almost no tread which made it scary to drive around after it snowed. Ill try to get better pics of my car and of course as the progression of what i put into my car grows ill try to post more about it.

 

New to the site.

Interestingly enough, mostly joined to find some good deals on parts for my twin turbo build for my 2009 Pontiac G8 GT - It's the 6.0L LS2 block. Doing a pair of Garrett T04E 60mm/60 trims hanging off each manifold. They're TE44 turbos from the Grand National scene. Browsing around seeing what most folks use for wastegates on low boost, high flow setups. I'll need 33lb/min from each turbo to feed the motor, keeping it around 7-9psi MAX. Since each bank is 3.0L, want to be sure I go with a wastegate size that will accomodate low boost - my guess is 44mm, but wonder if I can get away with (2) 38mm Tial's?

Anyway, post on. Checking in from STL. Referred here by a member, twkdcd595.

here is my 1st ef project. I'm brand new to this. An awesome friend of mine is teaching me the trade. So far I love it. Ill post more pics later on. I bought it bone stock for $200. So far I did the wire tuck, change the seat, drop D16z6 motor, swap the tranny to manual. bought those wheels for now, cause i had 2 busted rim that came with the car. I love this car like a fat kid love cake. can't wait to bring it out in a few weeks.
