    J_Hart : 2000 Accord EX

    What's up fellas. I'm new to this forum so I thought I should introduce myself and share some photos.

    My first car was a 90 Accord LX 5-speed sedan, a hand-me-down from my mom when I was in high school. I loved the car and loved racing (my father built classic Corvettes and raced them on occasion) but never modified the Accord. I purchased my next car, a 1998 Accord coupe, during my senior year and began toying with the body and engine almost immediately. I totalled that Accord in 2006, and bought a 2000 Accord EX coupe 5-speed with the F23 later that year. I've been modifying it ever since, mostly for performance.

    A couple of years ago, I had a complete 'home-boy' all-motor setup with a stock bottom end, milled head, bisi level 2 cam and valvetrain, and some custom work on an H23 intake manifold. The car ended up making 176whp and 170wtq, but even with my H23 transmission, it just didn't feel fast.

    Turbo Setup

    So in October 2011, I decided to park the car and begin a sort of 'restoration' along with a modest turbo setup since the motor was showing its age (block was still untouched) and the body was banged up pretty badly with dings and scrapes.

    What began as a modest quest for 250hp, turned into a high-compression fully built long-block with a new trans and all the goodies.

    I'll let the photos do the talking...

                    Thanks fellas. I only had a few weeks to wrap up the build, but it was totally worth it. The car is with my father now getting all the body work accomplished. Hopefully it'll have new paint in the next couple months before I come home!
