Hey guy's, I did a 5 speed swap and am using a manual starter, but I am getting this very loud metal on metal noise when cranking over. Anyone have any idea to why this is doing this? I can see on the flywheel that the teeth are meshing. Do I need to try a new starter or what? I'm going to try shimming it but I've never heard of a Honda needing shims.

Where did you get the starter and Flywheel? are they both specifically for 90-93 Manual Accord? where did you sort all your parts from?
It seems to be coming from that area and truthfully it sounds like the starter and flywheel are not grooving together because the teeth don't line up.Last edited by Davids92Accord; 01-04-2016, 07:27 PM.

I was going to say, that is almost certainly a dying starter. You can tell by the slow crank, but they also start to sound like that when they are worn out. Usually happens between 200-300K on this gen Accord.
I have a manual starter on my car that sounds a little bad, but it cranks fine so I haven't changed it yet. I think that one had about 260K on it when I pulled the starter.
Glad you figured it out.
