I am interested in buying a 94-97 Accord... Ive got a couple questions for you guys here...

What is the code for this gen of accords? Like 90-93 Integras are DA's.... and what gen are these style accords?

From 94-97 what changes were made each year?

Is it possible to find a fully loaded 5spd accord in these years?? I have looked but cant find..

Are carbon trunks avail?

Ill update later if I think of any more questions...

Thanks alot guys and gals.

 

im not sure what code these are but 94-97 is a 5th gen accord.

The changes are very minimal cosmetically, the 94 and sum 95 accord only have a single pair of tails on the corners and 96-97 have another pair on the trunk itself.

Engine wise you have the 2.2l non vtec f22b2 and the 2.2l vtec f22b1 witch came in the ex models then in 95 they started the release of a v6 3.0l vtec J30a1.

Now the 95 v6 is rare and most of them came in automatic but there were plenty of 5sp accord made during these years

 

I bought a '95 EX vtec. It had a manual. I wasn't even shopping for one.

Are 5th gens not prone to rusting out? I hardly see any with rust....(now, CB7s on the other hand...)

94 4 cylinder only
95 they added a V6 for the 4door.
96 and 97 changed bumper lights and tail lights.

You can find 5 speed EX in 2door and 4 door. EX by the way is fully loaded. If you get the 2door, the antenna is integraded into the rear window. I believe the 4door still have mechanical antenna on the drunk.

5spd with 4 door EX are more common than the 5spd 2 doord EX. (this is personal observation and I have no stats to prove it.) Good luck on your search.

really? i always thought the 5spd is more common on the 2door rather than the 4dr (much like how the civics are between 2dr and 4dr). then again i havent been really looking into it but I havent seen a 4dr 5spd nor a 2dr AT

ive a 2dr 5spd by the way

 

Thanks for the help guys, couple sites like edmunds and **** helped me out too.

Im looking for a 4door ex 5spd then. :D Prob. about spring Ill be looking....


As asked before, what about carbon trunks??

 

almost anything is available in carbon fiber

yes, the Ex model is the "fully loaded" one. comes with f22b1 (sohc vtec) all others are f22b2 (sohc non-vtec)

probably.
Ill update later if I think of any more questions...

 

i bought a 95 2 dr 5-spd LX from a dealer used. at the time i spent over a month searching and that was the closet i found to a 2dr 5-spd LX. The dealer told me that in those years honda pushed for the 4 door auto's to be sold and manufactured typically 2-3 2dr 5-spd's PER dealership. so outta those take your pick on how many are EX.

 

VIS has a carbon fiber trunk for 5th gen.

 

If I'm not mistaken, the 95 V6 engine had no VTEC.

 

I just bought a 96 EX 2 dr 5 speed for $4300, found it in the paper after a week of casually looking. So they're out there, just gotta look I guess.

 

There are companies out there that have cabon fiber trunks. Also with the V6 model the nose is longer which would make it harder to do an H22 swap if you ever wanted to, according to sport compact. Also it's better to go with the V-tec model if you plan to do an engine swap later there is a little less wiring. Also I know from looking myself I don't know about everyone else but a 5sp 4 door is more common than the 2dr. That's why I finally gave up and bought the 4dr 5sp after 2 1/2 months of looking.
