turbo90accord : 1990 Accord EX

Just ordered some sick wheels for slicks! 13x8 to fit the 24.5"x13"x8"

Wrap is nearing completion. Need to take car to glass shop and have them re-install mouldings cause they put way too much sealant on the windshield and cant attach the clips back in to hold the mouldings in place.

How goes the Neffy Wrapping?
Im curious to see a whole car wrapped in that stuff! I was about to buy some for my trunk and roof, but I wait to see how it looks first!

I'm confused what rim size do you have. like hoosier tires?
13 wide 8 tall for 24.5 inch rims??

nothing at all you can think of too buy.
Your anti aero kit rite...
s7 el gauge.

roughly how much wrap have you used.
will 40 square feet get me far?

The wheels are 13" tall 8 inch wide. the tires are 24.5" tall

i hate body kits other than mild lips especially on square cars like the CB.

I wouldnt change the lighting on the cluster either, i already have LEDs lighting it up and hate that! i prefer clean, sleeper look with all the flashiness in the engine bay where it belongs.

40 square feet is only 3 yards x 55inch wide of material. that will maybe do your trunk. I have used 17 yards so far and still have a fender and my bumpers to do..... ive spent a FEW hundred dollars on this project.

and ive gone through 8 cans of 3m super 77 @ 14.95 a piece=120$ just in adhesive.

compared too painting it's not bad price wise and looks so much better.
there also hasn't been any complaints about the wrap yet.
seems complete too me.

Slicks ship tomorrow, Killer deal, 150 bucks for both slicks used but only have 5 passes on them. usually 185 new.

wheels for the slicks are custom so wont get those for 3-4 weeks im told

Corrected my horrible idle issue. Found that when milling the runner section i went a bit far on the backside and opened up a small 3mm or so hole which was causing some of the issues. Welded that up then still had crap idle. Tuned fuel a bit and got it down to 2000rpm vs 3000 so we were getting somewhere, then found i had put my bad IAC on it, replaced that then idle starts surging and i was like give me a break, FITV needed adjust so did that and finally we have an idle at 1000 rpm. Car should be on the streets next week getting broken in and hopefully tuned as well.

Wrap is 99% done just have driverside fender remaining and installing windshield mouldings. Then remove all excess adhesive which there is alot of from overspray and then shine her up a bit. It came out really good and i took careful care of "weave" pattern. the sides match and the roof and trunk match so the weave all goes in the same direction so it doesnt look pieced together.


GOOD completed and running pictures in a week or so, I cant wait!

i had 3x combo... hole in the intake manifold from machining, faulty IAC and plastic nut backed out in the FITV.

My 2000th post woohoo only took 7 years to do it!

Status of my car... sad face! hondata is DEAD, no idea why but ecu will not turn on. really blows cause i was getting ready to drive the car and nothing from the ecu. verified it was the ecu by putting it in my daily driver and still nothing. hope my tuner can hook me up with some warranty action or a used one cause blowing another 500 bucks sucks.

Also, going to be making custom milspec wire tuck harnesses if anyone is interested. 500 bucks, 700 with a milspec connector on it. better than chase bays or rywire cause i sourced wire that is actually striped with OEM colors.

[turbo90accord]
