Default Just got a 91 lx 4door today

YESSS.... i have been wanting one for a few years now, but I will have some work to do to make it noticeable, I will need some pointers in the days to come, so far i have noticed that pretty much ALL the gaskets need to be replaced, including head gasket. I think the clutch and pressure plate are stuck or something because u cant shift when its running but it shifts smooth when its off, BUT....if u start it in gear it wants to take off even with the clutch in, so have to rip the tranny apart, Will be some bondo action and I will post some pics up, ALSO if anyone has a driver-side tail light for sale or wanting to just give it up, please lemme know. PICS SOON!! happy to be in the ED.. EF.. family now!!!

Im not sure if its the clutch cable, it has a good amount of movement to it, im guessing internal, but im still going to buy a new cable there only like $35. and I love the LS meshes and how they sit, I cant wait for mine to start cleaning up.

oh ya I was driving a 97 accord pretty clean but my wife got into and accident and we only got $780 for the car, so I had to find a 4 door for cheap, I was wanting a 91 4door even when i was driving the 4door beast

replace it with another one, like one from another sedan or possibly upgrade to another cars style for better pressure etc(some one jump in on this)

thats why i ask. the HB bumpers look the same as the sedan but a EF HB lip will not fit a sedan at all.
the sedan bumper is longer then the HB one. but u can put a HB bumper on the sedan but u have to change the filler pice replace it with a hb one

I'm interested in this as well... I've heard of seat pan swaps, but never seen a comprehensible write up, maybe someone will post one, I had a cd7 before I got my ed4 ex 5 speed. The accord was clean but parts was soo high so I ditched it
