VERY nice, matter of fact, if I had a white accord, thats what I'd want it to look like!

btw, was the mugen lip hard to get on?

thanks man...

the mugen lip actually wasn't as hard to install as i thought it was gonna be. i basically had to drill new holes in the lip (to match the holes for the stock lip), hacksaw about an inch or so off of the edges of the lip, bend the ends of the lip a little bit when bolting it on.

i think there is a DIY on this in the DIY forum, but i think i'm also going to do my version also. it's not real hard though.

[TypeRLegend]

NICE CAR!!!!!!:laughy:

[rebels]

thats sweet man. i like the jdm corners and the whole jdm look. that's not over done at all and its nice and clean. 100% props to ya man! where u from? check out my ride in the members section.

[cowdexaccord]

nice car man , lol i pretty much have the same car but i have 7 spoke chrome rims. i'll post pics soon , but mad props on ur ride.

[DsR_CB7]

wow...the blk on white contrasts looks GREAT...white cars look sooo clean...

[ProjectCB7]

That CB is SICK!!! Where did you get that chin spoiler (the Mugen thing) I want that BAD! I love the amber corners but where's the side markers!? LOL! Really nice work, man! 10/10 definately.

[shawn.hayden]

for all those who want a mugen lip, go by this guide:

for 90-91 owners, get a 94-95 Mugen style Lip

for 92-93 owners, geta 96-97 Mugen style Lip

it just seems that its easier if you do it that way, or so I've heard from the Mugen King (ZigenBallz from Accord Tuner)

shouldn't really be any different. i have the 94-95, and it wasn't too hard to fit. personally, i would reccomend the 94-95 lip for ALL 4th gens (based on my experience with it)

[growguy]

accordtunerx, i am on a quest to make my car look like yours, looks great btw, minus the black hood.

gj on your car looks primo

[xplode]

its a Carbon fiber hood bro.. haha. neway steve i really like what you did with your car.. btw whered you get the AEM liscence plate frame i been looking all over for it .haha

thanks man. lol, the frame was included free with the purchase of my AEM CAI. looks like you'll have to drop that 'modified' stock intake for an AEM short ram or CAI...

[cowdexaccord]

how did u get ur cf hood to fit so good??

[pillypimpinit]

well VIS and Fiber Images hoods tend to fit well.. you can tweak how the hood sits by messing with the screws that hold the hood on the hinges...

yeah... i did have some problems with the hood though. it wouldn't close for awhile there, because VIS welded the hood hinge on the hood a bit too far back... and it wasn't latching. i eventually had to move the actual latch forward by putting a few washers behind it... and i also had to use a dremel tool to shave a little bit off of the hood hinge. now it closes fine.

also.. the hood actually still sits a bit higher on one side than the other. it's not really that noticeable though, unless you're nose to nose with it.

i have learned one thing though - your stock hood is going to fit better than most aftermarket hoods, even with it being VIS and tweaking the hinge positions. it really doesn't bother me too much though.

Steve,

Ur ride is tight, but do you need the front license plate? If ya don't, I'd lose it. Takes away from the looks, but I know some states are *** & require that shit.

I was wondering what you did to the interior and that dash looks mad tight, QUALITY!! Now hook us up with some more interior pics, u carry that color combo inside throughout ur car?

[Accordchick90]

Sweet ride! It really looks good!!! you have a gift for taking pictures! I'm impressed. :nod:

actually, i don't carry that color combo throughout the inside of my car. i don't have any other pics right now, but the car's interior is just the stock navy blue and grey. the dash trim is the only part i've painted white as of now. i'm actually selling that dash trim, if anyone wants to buy it. i'll probably post it up in the classifieds forum here soon with more pictures and information.

[accordtunerx]

here are a few pics of my new a'pexi world sport catback exhaust system. i will take time to write up a review in the reviews forum later on. but i'd say that this catback is probably one of the best mods i've ever done to my cb7. :boink:

lmao...Crawlin & I are like girls...always changin our minds :lol:

yea, just needed to be mounted higher...looks good & what did you mean by "best mod i've done?"

what do you like about it other than looks?

[kings_blend]

i like the DTM style tip on your accord, i have it on mine and i know i would regret the can style one, but everybodys got their own taste right........

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by HondaFan81

what do you like about it other than looks?

well, the look of the system is hardly what makes it the best mod ever. i love the sound of the WS. it sounds very smooth and quiet... almost like one of those stock audi or bmw exhausts. it really deters the cops - because it doesn't make your car sound like the typical 'rice burner'. it's got a nice tone to it ... like i said, very subtle though. i've also noticed a definite performance gain... ALL throughout the powerband. the acceleration (in any gear) is much smoother and it seems as though the accelerator is a bit more touchy... i don't have to mash the pedal as far to pick up some speed anymore.

i think that the catback optimized my dc sports header performance also. i might even bolt up a test pipe soon... maybe i can get some more flow and a tad bit more sound from the system. i think i'm also going to try and hang the exhaust even higher. because the hangers i'm using for the a'pexi right now are the same hangers i used for my previous muffler. so, i might buy even shorter ones.

it's a great system though. i love it. :luv:

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by kings_blend

yeah i liked how it looked, but that was just a muffler - and it was hella loud and raspy. i didn't want to bother with custom piping and stuff... i just wanted a system that was specifically made for the CB7.

[1CrawlinAccord]

So, you customized it so it would hang higher? Could you explain what you did? Did you weld hangers onto the hangers that already were on the canister? Also, the World Sport canister has hangers already welded onto it, right?

[accordtunerx]

well, i haven't done anything to make it hang higher yet. that's how its hanging right now just using my old rubber hangers.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid87/p4fcd4cdd85d9e757cf6c7f9e4de19eef/faa4e434.jpg

i'm going to go buy shorter rubber hangers and put them on in a few days though. that will probably make it sit a little higher. i'll let you guys know how that turns out.. and i'll get pics.

yes, the metal hook type hangers were already welded onto the canister when it came.

[1CrawlinAccord]

Ok, cool. Thanks for clearing it up for me. To me, it looks really good now. But, if you raised it up a little bit, I feel it will look a little better. Also, is there anyway you can post up a picture of directly behind the car so we can see what the exhaust looks like from exactly behind it? If so, I would appreciate it. :D

hmmm.... i think all of my exhaust shots are at an angle. i'll try and get some more from directly behind soon (before and after short hangers). :tu:

[1CrawlinAccord]

Thanks a lot man. I appreciate it. :)

[HondaFan81]

where u get these shorter hangers & how much?

thx for that & for the pics

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by HondaFan81

sure, np.

the hangers can be purchased at any regular auto parts store like NAPA. i'm not sure on the price... but they can't be too much. maybe 2 or 3 bucks for one? i'll let you know for sure when i go buy some this week.

yeah. i don't know how the sizes are measured, but just ask an employee at your local shop for their shortest available rubber exhaust hangers.

my current hangers are not the short ones.

1crawlinaccord, here's a direct rear shot of the world sport:

[accordtunerx]

ran my tread down on the two front nitto tires, and don't have the 250 dollars for a new set and getting them mounted and balanced. plus, it's just about winter time... and i'm gonna try and keep the konigs out of the nasty weather this year. so... i threw on my stock 15" EX wheels that i've painted black.

heres a few pics (you might need to brighten your screen a little, the wheels get blacked out on dark screen settings):

hey you should paint ur tail lights all red, except for maybe the reverse lights, its in the DIY but i only seen one guy do it, and can you send me or post some pics of ur front grill i just did mine and the fitment is shit.....

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by kings_blend

yeah i thought about doin the all-red tails.

your grill shouldn't fit any different. you are using the stock one, right?

i just took my chrome strips off and cut out that skinny, middle black piece that runs across the center grill housing (used a hacksaw). then i used this grill mesh i bought and cut it to the size and shape of the grill housing... then i used metal tie wraps to hold it onto the grill. finally, i painted my mesh black.

i'm still working on putting my strips back on. i painted them black... and i'm gonna put them back on, and then mount my mesh behind the grill housing instead of in front of it like how i have it now.

anyways, i don't have any up close pics... but i don't see why the fitament would change, because it shouldn't.

[kings_blend]

oh my bad i thought u had the 90 91 grill i just bouht it off ebay and cut off the shit in the middle and i used bondo for the H emblm space, i went to this paint store and they mixed up a brew of the stock paint but it chips so easily so im gonna repaint it, i got pics of the whole process for the DIY thread, but the grill also fits like crap, so i gotta customize it....

[Ron Z]

dang i cant express how tight your car is tunerx... its off the hizzotch or whatever... got any up and coming plans??

peace

[1CrawlinAccord]

Cool. Thanks accordtunerx. It looks really good. Yep, I want it now. Plus, I love the way your winter wheels look. May I ask what model they are? (What year Accord's did they come on? What trim line? That kind of stuff) Also, may I suggest for your next mod to be an auto to manual swap. Drop that slushbox automatic. I did. :boink: :tu: Anyways, the car is looking good man. Keep it going.

:tu: yup. (also came on the 92 EX coupe models as well)

thanks for the compliments guys. the manual conversion is definitely the next mod on my list. i'll probably be doing this sometime this spring. i'm considering bolting up an h22a (jdm or usdm) 5 speed tranny. this way, whenever i save up enough money for the engine swap... the transmission will already be set up and ready. i'm still not sure yet though.

[1CrawlinAccord]

Sounds like a good plan. DOH! I should have bolted up the H22 tranny.

[92accordDx]

what cat. are you useing with the apex. Is it stock or a highflow cat.

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by 92accordDx

well.. right now i'm using my stock oem cat for daily driving. i only bolt on my highflow/straight pipe cat when i go to the track to race. i think it may help a little bit. the only reason i don't daily drive with it on is because it makes the exhaust sound a little louder and high pitched, and also because of emissions.

i think all red on upper part of tail lights and take the reverse clear & carry it across horizontally would look better. so you get a red/wht look that goes with ur car

they dont make red/clear taillights for 92/93 coupes :(

[accordtunerx]

no, he's telling me to make the clear reverse lense section somehow spread across to replace the amber lense area of the tails. i don't think there is a way for me to do that professionally.

[cp[mike]]

and i have no idea what you two are talking about.

the cb7 coupe taillights. hondafan81 reccommended that i somehow make custom red & clear lenses. i told him that i didn't think there was a way to do it professionally.

[fliplyricist1]

just beautiful

[accordzoom]

toooooooooo smoooooooooooooth!

[xplode]

how long does it take you to unbolt and put on the high flow one?.. prolly 5-10 min rite?

[accordtunerx]

well, it depends on whether or not you have access to a lift or not. on a lift, yeah - about 10 minutes. but, if you try to change them out in your driveway jacked up or on jackstands... man... it takes me like an hour or so. it's not fun working with that much space; you can't get any leverage when your turning the bolts and it's harder to fit the cat back in between the downpipe and midpipe.

[accordztech]

hehe funnie, it takes me about 20 minutes on a driveway/my garage. power tools are your friend =).

you got a lift man?? hey...let me come by and work on my car, gotta clean under it. hahah

[xplode]

lol ztech u ***.. yourr only liek 10000 miles away..

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by accordztech

i don't have a lift... there's a garage with a few of them at the navy base here. that's where i take my car.

it's much easier than working in the driveway... even w/ power tools ;)

[HondaFan81]

Steve, I meant do what flipyricist1 did to his rear tailights...just like that would look sweet on ur car

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by HondaFan81

yeah, he bought a set of red & clear taillights. i can't buy ANY aftermarket tails period... because they don't make them to fit the coupes. the tails are designed differently on the coupes. i guess i could paint the amber area of the tails red... and leave the clear reverse part - but i don't know if i'd like that better than just leaving them stock.

[HondaFan81]

ooooh I see, well you suck :laughy:

I'd still take ur car ;)

[xplode]

time for a trunk lid conversion SteveOOO,, :tu:

[Renegade]

I love your car... so clean and simple. I've been thinking about buying another coupe for a long time now, and I would definitely build it up in the same manner.

I had the sedan trunk lid conversion on my car for a short time, but I forgot to switch it out when I took it to the bodyshop. They started on my car a little early and had already cut up the sedan trunk to install the R33 tailights. It sucks, I should have kept it, but now I'm stuck with an extra coupe trunk. Oh well, lesson learned.

[HondaFan81]

Steve, ur outta control with ur sigs ...but they be tight:p

thanks for the compliment renegade. that sucks about the trunk lid... i know it's gotta be hard to sell off the coupe lids too (since everyone wants to do the sedan conversion).

b00st it is. 14g (td05) turbo w/ a tyrus FMIC, custom mandrel bent piping, and some other 1g DSM goodies. should be installed as soon as i get out of school this May - hopefully along with the h23 tranny swap... but i'll have to see if funds allow.

[WiKKeDV16]

vrooom ppSSHHHTT! told ya there was a lil seeccreeet involved..:boink:

anyhoot.. bitching pics of ur cb7 steven as always.. clean ride..
gonna need pics of ur "other equpiment" too:lol:

What ya usin for the exhaust manifold and wastegate... ive been lookin at something similar as to what you are doing, but havent found an exact fit manifold unless you were to use like the 94-97 style... just wondering... peace

- dsm 1g manifold... it fits; but requires modification.

- td05 has an internal wastegate.

holy shit... i like ur car soo much... i want to get a carbon fiber hood too!! and get a mugen lip as well! and leave it black like you! i love the panda jdm look omg omg omg omg

it's actually just the stock OEM spoiler that came on it. if you wanted to purchase one, you would probably have to find it at the honda dealership (expect to pay some $), or at a junkyard.

P M : thanks.... your cb7 would look great with a carbon fiber hood - take lots of pictures if you ever get one :nod:

[d21x]

sorry accordtunerx, i sold most of the turbo kit. all i have left is a 96-00 civic dual gauge pod, NGK BKR6E spark plugs (1step colder), and a DSM test pipe.

i'd be glad to sell anything u need above. if u need any help on the kit, i have most of the info to install it and the Do's and Dont's on turbos (past EG coupe turbo experiences). oh and i know someone who's already did this install too. u know where to reach me, later!

[exrtuner]

that is without a doubt one of the cleanest accord ive seen in quite some time..... very nice

It's been awhile since i put my Nikon CoolPix Digicam to work, and the white 17"s are back on for the season - so i ventured out yesterday to a few different locations (after a car wash, of course). Shots were taken between the hours of 4:30 and 6:00 pm @ Lexington Park, MD. Let me know your thoughts on these. i have high resolution versions of all, if anyone is interested.

haha, thanks for posting my photoshoot in this profile thread elliot :)

you're always ontop of the game as far as image regulating (and just about every other aspect of the board).

thanks for the compliments from everyone else as well. i really appreciate it :nod:

i have many plans coming up for the spring/summer season including: blackhousing headlights, jdm sidemarker lenses, upgrade from coilovers to race springs, strut/sway bars, a little professional powdercoating of a certain color on a certain set of wheels... project 16 flat automatic, and soon after - a real power adder.

Anyway just wanted to say that im lovin the car, and maybe if i had been to cb7tuner before i purchased a bodykit and what not, id definetly be looking at this car as somewhat a role model for how id like mine to look! great work!

[projekakkord]

Lovin the car bro! Makes me wish I had a white coupe. Keep us updated.

Sweet mod for a sweet cb7. Can't wait to see it.

[accordtunerx]

ha, thanks for posting the pics elliot. you're always ontop of the game when it comes to keeping everyone updated.

and yeah... we had been working on the swap for a few days carlos... so i hadn't been online. it was just straight working each day. but there are some kinks that i need to work out. i'm not sure if you've seen my other thread in the "swaps" forum or not... but i'm missing the fast idle valve that bolts to the throtle body... and i think the ecu needs a little re-wiring... i'm getting an engine code for EGR... and it runs a little rough... which is probably due to all of the hoses disconnected around my intake and throttle body... but who knows. hopefully i'll have some time to do some troubleshooting this weekend.

but the vtec should be screaming by the time of the meet on the 20th :)

[cdgaccord90]

Hey, quick question. how does the apex ws exhaust sound. I have been debating on getting it for like ever now, but i havent heard nething about it. I would appreciatwe some feedback from someone who actually has it. Thanks

green cb7: not yet man, planning on taking it up there this friday though :) hopefully i'll have video and timeslips! i'm interested to see what it runs with the automatic tranny. then i can do a little comparison when i convert it to manual.

[accordtunerx]

updated pics and mod list on page 1: new slipstream wheels, BFG tires, sedan trunk lid swap and red/clear tails, 5g EX lip, and a few other visual changes!

yeah, i've had amber corners in the past.. but i'm done with those. i personally think that these clears are a lot cleaner and flow with the red/clear taillights really well. thanks for the compliment!

[jdm91cb]

cool atx u gonna change the bumper lights 2 clear also?

[92accordDx]

leave them orange it breaks up the front some what but yet its still clean look steve car looks great man pics dont do it justice. always loved the car man.
p.s. get the god damn video up :wavey:

[1CrawlinAccord]

Lovin' the wheels. Your car looks very clean. Good job.

[cp[mike]]

i absolutely adore your car, it looks even better in person. good choices youve made, very good choices...

[4thGen4dr]

Steve I hate you with your red clears and rota's! Those clear corners really make your headlights look like one pieces:tu:

[brownaznkid]

beautiful transformation, how long did it take you to find those corners? i've been looking for a long time for those things

[DsR_CB7]

wow..looks like a totally different car..looks better!

[HondaFan81]

I think Steve is going for more of a stocker/sleeper look so he can take on more peeps with this H22 on the street :nod: :nod:

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by brownaznkid

www.autodynamic.com : the lenses don't fit our cars though because they are exact replicas of the jdm two-piece headlight corner lenses - which you also have to modify. i had to basically fabricate a new bracket for the corner lense and cut some plastic off of the back of the lense. i should have pics of the differences later.

arittttteee... jay is the man... he's the ultimate for finding these corners at www.autodynamic.com and brought them to my attention first. everyone bow down to jay, the corner lense king :)

[ai2t]

steve.. did u sell ur cf hood?

ohh.. im lovin those wheels.. sooo hott

[Accord SiR]

Steve, your car looks good with those rotas, you got the sleeper/spoon look at the moment.

yeah, sold to 4thgen4dr.. he has it on his car now.. i revisited it at the meet we just had :)

[Fearit22]

I like the new wheels a lot. Except for the new wheels I liked it better before. The carbon fiber hood really set it off nicely.

[h22aAccord93]

nice

[Evisu]

Nice !!

[lowoctane]

dude i love the look!....and that sedan trunk lid doesnt look bad at all..

but damn man it looks hott! :luv:

[HondaFan81]

Steve,

how much these tires cost ya & where ya get them? They are good...

BFGoodrich G-Force Sport 205/50/ZR16 tires

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by HondaFan81

yeah, those tires are beasts. i got them from www.tirerack.com for 325.00 shipped. they ride VERY comfortably... i definitely don't feel bumps as much when driving. from what i've tested so far, they seem to handle nicely as well. they are also grippy - i can't chirp 2nd anymore at all. i hear that the treadwear is great on them, but check out the reviews on tire rack for more comments and feedback on that...

but yeah, for the price of 75.00/tire - these are the best bang for the buck!

[uncle_el]

i miss the carbon fiber hood and the front lip :(.

the red/clears are hella sexy though! i looked at this thread a number of times before it hit me that you did a trunk swap, lol.

car still looks good though. :D

[accordtunerx]

Originally posted by uncle_el

well that front lip actually cracked off on the roads here in the towson city (where i go to school). i was going up a dip to get into a driveway... and there was like a little cement lip of sidewalk that i had to climb over. well the lip didn't exactly clear, lol.

so i came to the conclusion that the mugen front lip is too much of a worry/hassle and the 5g lip has been more practical for daily driving thus far.

about the carbon fiber hood, yeah.. i'm semi-sad to see it go... but the money is going towards my auto>manual conversion taking place this spring. i also like the car's more subtle look now without it. with that hood on there, i stuck out like a sore thumb... and quite frankly i'm sick of the attention in general.

the white rims were nice too, but i'm just tired of those. not only did they also grab too much unwanted attention, but they got dirty wayyy to quick. with these slipstreams, i can't even tell if they're dirty or not after 2-3 weeks of driving on them. and i HATED the way my white rims looked when they were dirty. i also didn't like the way that those rims looked from different angles. the only time i truly liked them was when i was looking head-on directly at the side of the car.. and when they were in rotation.

i still get attention, but it's not as obvious now. the car just has a more cleaner/stock-like overall appearance. i wanted to set up my accord's exterior and be able to leave it alone - so that i could concentrate on making the car faster. and i wasn't 100% satisfied with my old styling. OEM style is where it's at!

well that's the end of my justification... thanks for your posts' ultimate compliment though Elliot!

[ztekuhng]

Steve your right about all the attenion with the hood, for some reason I dont get as many races anymore:( I cracked my mugen yesterday so im goin stock/winter mode taking the hood and lip off, I do like how your 5th gen looks and i was tryin to get that a month ago..... so Im doin that with the cf hood in the spring. Your car is great with the sleeper oem look:tu:

[ProjectCB7]

I don't even notice it anymore!! haha!

Nice work!

I saw your old stock rims today. lol. They're on 93accord2dr's car. At the Pittsburgh meet we had parts of your car. Intake, rims, etc. lol.

:boink:

feeee showww!

i liked it better before with the lip, cf hood, and the rated R's but it still looks good how it sits now. i think the oem tails would match better with the rims and the sedan trunk lid and yea.

overall it still looks good.. definitely wouldn't think that car had a h22a under the hood!

[accordtunerx]

time to post a few updated pics of my '92 as it sits today. i have LX steelies on there right now with the OEM hubcaps and all season tires for the winter time. check out my ultra stealth exhaust, too - i painted the canister flat black. that pretty much gets rid of the only thing i didn't like about the WS exhaust - the bling and visible size of the canister.

i wish i woulda got pics of when we unloaded my clip.. haha we had to use a fucking log skitter to drag it out of the truck.. ROFL!

[dwf137]

damn man... nice little sleeper look you've got going... I like the black exhaust. I concidered doing that to my muffler too. I did a little bit, but not the whole thing like that..

love those gunmetal rims you had on there..

[timmy0tool]

check out my ultra stealth exhaust, too - i painted the canister flat black. that pretty much gets rid of the only thing i didn't like about the WS exhaust - the bling and visible size of the canister.

dang IMHO the bling factor and the size are some of the reasons why i would buy a WS, but i like the stealth look too. maybe i should do it to my greddy SP. surely that would get the man off my back. :thumbsup:

[Huy009]

HOLY FLASH BACK! OMG lol humm i gotta find a picture of my car in stock form now lol

[ukaccord92]

hi tuner , hey love the car, in auctual im buyin the coupe this week, what up with the trunk lid replacement what was it like b4 .ive also notice you got the auto tranny you know what ive done the same swap in my 92 accord 4dr but here in the uk my is the cb3 chasis and a 2.0i at that . my problem is that ive notice a slight hesitation when ever i take off exp:- crossin ,traffic light, etc that sort of thing you think i should use the prelude fuel pump and filter also u got any idea what it could be ? let me know what sup ....but love the car im might do a f22 dohc swap the lude vtecs engine conversion are gettin flippin expensive to buy ......chuch 1


ps love the whiute wheel there hard to get here are they ray te 37 s ?

[accordtunerx]

timmy0tool: you would be singin' a different tune if you had seen this exhaust from behind at night time with headlights shined on it. it was about as bright as a headlight in itself, lol. it was just too much for what my car looks like now. i feel that this flat black look is more conservative and flows better with my new, more subtle theme. the look is actually race-inspired as well.. if you look at most of the autos in best motoring and other track racing media, you'll see that their canisters are either a primer color or flat black.

ukaccord92: trunk lid replacement wasn't hard at all, just basically swapped the lid on each car and used the same exact wiring harness we already had. before, it just looked like normal coupe tails.. the long 90-91 style. not sure about the hesitation... could be anything... but it would be a good idea to change the fuel filter anyways. the white rims i used to have were not te-37's.. they were konig rated-r's and are no longer in production.

thanks for the opinions guys :thumbsup:

[4thGen4dr]

Nice Steve, I was gonna get around to painting mine cuz silver tips look great with flat black canisters and your right about the glare bling factor I hate it also, good job.

do you still have that lip? if you do can i buy it?

nope, it got ripped in half going up a driveway.

[93accordexcoupe]

hey ATX how does ur suspension setup ride? i might be getting the neuspeed race springs and i was looking at shocks, then i saw ur setup and found out that those shocks are pretty cheap, so i was just wondering how it rides and all. oh yea and i noticed that ur future plans are koni yellows, when u get those would u consider selling ur blues?

[H23 Lude]

Ride looks nice, I like your sleeper look :thumbsup:

but the tokicos are nice too, i can't complain (i've had some horrible setups in the past). the ride is stiff and you can tell they're made for race setups.. so they're good in that sense. but i'd just personally like the adjustability for a street setup too. basically, its a good shock for replacing the weaker OEMs if you're upgrading to more agressive springs. good for the price!

seeing your car's ride height makes me wanna go lower!

[accordtunerx]

seeing your car's ride height makes me wanna go lower!why not? :) just learn those LA roads beforehand.. you don't wanna lose an oil pan, lol.

[Grumpys93]

[BBs91accord]

Nice clean ride :thumbsup: . How do you like your struts and exhuast??

[accordtunerx]

Nice clean ride :thumbsup: . How do you like your struts and exhuast??but the tokicos are nice too, i can't complain (i've had some horrible setups in the past). the ride is stiff and you can tell they're made for race setups.. so they're good in that sense. but i'd just personally like the adjustability for a street setup too. basically, its a good shock for replacing the weaker OEMs if you're upgrading to more agressive springs. good for the price!
as for the WS exhaust.. its probably one of the best modifications i've ever done to my accord. quiet and subtle looking (i painted the canister black) - its the ultimate sleeper catback. when people hear me coming, its all motor noise.. just the intake screaming. sometimes i feel that i'm being held back by the piping diameter and baffles in the muffler... but whatever, the sound is worth the loss :nod:

Accordtunerx like the car alot man in one of the pictures i see the Tiki bar your across the bridge from me.

[accordtunerx]

Accordtunerx like the car alot man in one of the pictures i see the Tiki bar your across the bridge from me.thanks man. yeah i actually don't live over there.. i live over in your area of st. mary's. there are a few other guys on the board in southern maryland too. we all need to have a small get together sometime this summer and talk cb7s. there is also a big meet being planned @ budds creek.. check out this thread: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?p=243469

[JDM4DOORLX]

Car looks great :thumbsup: Why cant any body with a car like yours, Uncle El, or Accord Inspire live in SoCal?

[accordtunerx]

^^ i know El is actually moving to the LA area soon. i might also be there in the future, considering i'm trying to break into the film industry. so we all might be close together soon.. who knows. :shrug: :)

[Liljord05]

i still dig the white rims and carbon hood stage...why did you have to leave it!?!?!?!?!

WHY!?!?!?!?!

[dohcvtec20]

Accordtunerx hey man i really like your car. we definitely gotta hook up and talk Cb7s.

[DUNKiNUTS]

The ATX doesn't have time for we ones j/k you should come to the meet in june at MIR. Steve why no pics of the man.?

[accordtunerx]

The ATX doesn't have time for we ones j/k you should come to the meet in june at MIR. Steve why no pics of the man.?my sister keeps stealing my digital camera, thats why... :idiots: i'll try to get some pics sometime before the weekend.. but i heard its supposed to rain for the next couple of days.

dohcvtec20 is already on the list for the md meet #5 at MIR dunkin. but we could also do a small meet sometime if we get some of the md guys together or whatever. let me know if you're ever in the southern region of maryland.

Liljord05.. i've posted about that before in this thread. i just got tired of the attention and wanted something that was more clean and simple. i guess in the end it just comes down to a change in taste.

[accordtunerx]

here are a few new pics of the ride after a fresh washing/waxing. i got the shots just minutes before the rain came.. as you can see. but i actually think that overcast days make for the best lighting and show the true colors of the car.

http://www.cb7tuner.com/interior5spd.jpg

auto>manual transmission conversion complete :)

http://www.cb7tuner.com/hoodpopped.jpg

http://www.cb7tuner.com/motorsidegood.jpg

i don't have any pictures of the auto>manual conversion actually being done right now. some of them are on my friends digital camera and i need to get them off of him. i was mostly taking video of it all and i'll try and incorporate it into the next video i make of my accord. but i can tell you guys that it took about 5-6 days to fully complete and was quite an experience. everything is running fine as of now, but i still need to make a few small adjustments and get an axle from an EX since i used one from an LX and therefore my ABS isn't working. apparently there is a wheel speed sensor on the axle for the EX models. i wouldn't recommend anyone doing this conversion if their cb7 is fairly stock. in that case, i would just sell the auto and buy a manual version of the car. i only went through with it all since i had done a bit of work already with the engine, suspension, etc. NOT that the conversion is super hard or anything.. i just don't think its worth it otherwise.

but overall i'm happy and still taking it easy on breaking everything in. i haven't really tried pushin the throttle or racing it and probably won't for a couple more weeks... but i can't wait. it feels really strong and revs pretty quick with the lightweight flywheel i'm running. i'll keep this thread updated and hopefully i can get together the rest of those pictures soon.

ahh yeah.. definitely have to thank cpmike, CRseX, pwrusr, and my friend Eric (not a member on the board) for helping me work on the car. without you guys, i probably wouldn't have this car anymore or else would be taking A LOT longer to get this conversion done LOL

[pwrusr]

http://www.cb7tuner.com/pointatshifter.JPG
:lol: great pic :D

Man I sure did learn alot when I helped you out on the final day of the swap. Your car sure does look alot cleaner now :bouncy:
keep up the work steve! :tu:

[J-specCb4]

STEVE! im gonna have to sit down and talk to you over the phone about this swap im terrified and need a lil bit of a pep talk so maybe you could help me out

[1CrawlinAccord]

Good job man. Have fun with the manual. Leaving the auto tranny is like being reborn. :)

[Boost_Lee]

Glad to see it done Steve, let me know if u think I should do the swap as well...

[Huy009]

LoL i hear ya about the 5speed conversion lol quite a experance eh? lol

[pr3dSi]

yea it was a good couple days for the swap, definately thank people on my behalf too for bearing with the living conditions, and the foreign lands u had to reach to get this garage....jk...but all in all most of the work was done during later towards the day, everyday, since i had to work in the mornings and i would pick up steve then head over to the farm lands...haha...but yea it was definately a lot of work, i'm sure its well worth it, and i'm sure steve would mention that too, but i'd agree with steve when it comes to doing this swap if u have a completely stock cb7 or any other car. It might be easier to just start off rite by getting the 5-spd in the first place....

but yea a good couple nights, cuz we mainly worked after the sun went down and i'll say this again steve:

IT WOULD'VE BEEN LIKE %689435489742 EASIER IF WE WOULDA GOTTEN RID OF THE FUKING A/C.
[/sarcasm]
that, once again is my opinion, a lot of people like the luxuries and the comforts of the A/C and would look past the problems and the "getting in the way" of numerous things. So ignore this when i say it: i hate a/c's theyre the one of the worst things to be put in a car, god..i'll stop now, i could write novels of how a/c's are not needed..

[cp[mike]]

very glad i was able to help with the conversion, i had a great time with steve and sunny (crsex). wish i could have stayed longer and got to feel it when it was done, but ill feel it soon. you still have my tools and jack :p

also be glad that it went as well as it did... this conversion has potential to have some really crappy stuff happen... like if that release bearing wasnt on right, youd be pulling the motor back out again, or somethign small could have gone wrong and been hard to diagnose...

anyway enough babbling, are you glad i encouraged you so much? youre going to absolutely adore your car now... take it from me and 1crawlinaccord (who im glad to see posting now): its like being reborn!

Nice pic, and its about time you did that swap. Looking good Steve. :tu:

[accordtunerx]

thanks guys. yeah.. i'm definitely happy about how it went down... it was a lot of work, but i KNOW it was well worth it.

oh yeah.. mike and sunny.. we can't forget about the sicknesses we kept passing around during this swap lol. i think there were about 3 viruses working against us that whole week :lol:

oh yeah, and walking into mcdonalds for breakfast covered in dirt and grease after being up all night working :)

or walking through the drive thru at wendy's :confused:

and i'm keeping my damn A/C :thumbsup: :p

[pwrusr]

I'm surprized you didn't spread the cold my way. all that coughing in my face I thought for sure i'd be in bed for a couple days :p

Such a good time for sure, and the car runs very well steve :tu:

[cp[mike]]

or walking through the drive thru at wendy's :confused:
story time!

i drive the group to wendy's, park, and we get out and walk through the drive through. we give the lady this story about how we are working on steves car in the development down the road, we have no car, but its late and we are very hungry and want food... so she lets us order and everything, and the greasy hands and clothes helps... then we get the food and walk and jump back in my car, and she sees. then steve gets out and walks back up to the window with some problem with his order and the girl is like "i thought you didnt have a car?!!?" lol...

still waiting on the video footage, doesnt need to be a cut/finished video, i jsut wanna see all our random footage again and show my friends/gf :wavey:

[accordtunerx]

sadly these are the only good 3 pictures that i have of the conversion/swap we did a week ago. nothing technical, but you guys can see the awesome setup we had in the garage :)

...said it too many times..and i'm gonna keep saying it....
GET RID OF THAT A/C

that is all

[pwrusr]

A/C feels awsome when you gotta deal with summer heat AND HUMIDITY in the north east :tu:

[YellowCord]

i love a/c very nice in summer, whenever i got into the car, then walk outside, i just want to go back to the car and stay there and move no where, it like freaking 100 degree outside, A/C is the best for summer

[accordtunerx]

i actually don't use my a/c at all in the summer time when it comes to keeping ME cool. i love the heat. i don't care if its 110 degrees outside, my windows are rolled down and the sunroof is open... always. the main reason i kept the a/c is for those rainy/muggy days OR when its really cold out and the front windshield fogs up to the point where i can hardly see anything. the a/c will clear that up in like 10 seconds and KEEP it clear. but we'll see what happens in the future.. if i take the motor out for a 3rd time for a rebuild or something, i'll probably take the a/c out too. especially if i get a daily driver on the side.

you guys define the word "poon" VERY VERY well..when u talk abt A/C...but dont worry asshole, i'm ripping that fuker out....and u know its happening soon...
