90blackcoupe : 1993 Accord EX-R

[90blackcoupe]

wondering if you have any camber kits?
that stance is killer bro! please DO NOT mess with that height lol

I don't still, I had to raise it right now since its parked and i'm putting in work over the winter, but as soon as summer comes back around here it will return to its same stance possibly lower

[90blackcoupe]

what happened to all the sludge? lol

head all cleaned up
8 new intake valve seal
8 new exhaust valve seal
2 new cam seal







valve adjustment will follow once head is back on block, just need to wait for some gaskets and finish cleaning and detailing small little parts and things...

[90blackcoupe]

oem ftw

honda ftw




all original gaskets, seals and various little items all picked up today from honda.

damn! How much did that run you?

damn! How much did that run you?

about $800cdn and thats for a lot of shit, certain stuff isnt even in the pic i'll make a list of everything, but its not that bad considering she will be running good now some might tell me, "why didnt you just swap motor", cause if I did that I would just have another h22 with loss comperssion like most people who just buy jdm motors and swap them in yeah its nice they get them for cheap ect, but they are old motors with old seals and gaskets... the point of what Im doing is to restore power and have the motor last for years to come, she lasted so long already and ran good, with all the work now $800 isn't too bad considering she'll be around for another 10 years+ , and labour is free. diy.

[MyDianaZ06]

shit 800 is not bad at all!!!

and like you said...why do a swap when you already have a swap lol now alls you need to do is make that swap %100 complete buy rebuilding it to make it run 100% NOW thats a true swap brother

like you said...$800 jdm motor swaps are great but whats the point when its already abused! and if your doing a swap and don't even bother to al least look at the insides to check the condition is completely stupid! might as well go to the junk yard and get a motor their with your luck.

luckily When I got mine everthing was almost perfect when I opened her up...but still replaced typicall parts.

I bet if you dyno'ed it before you took it apart and compared it to a dyno run after the rebuild you would be amazed...shoot you will be amazed even with out a piece of paper to prove you...alls you need to do is drive it! keep us posted

[90blackcoupe]

yeah i should have ran it on a dyno before so I can have some results to compare againts, but it ran ok before I started doing all this stuff, she pulled good only burned about 1L every 5k (cause i drove her hard) and she had a funny idle problem, I did find my iab`s broken as well and a few sensor`s fubared, but now everythings should be running right I found an fairly minty shift boot in the jy yesterday the chrome ring around isn`t peeling(yes!) haha

damn oil pan gasket was original 17years old, sob was so hard to come out I must have spent about 30min to an hour just trying to remove the old gasket and clean up the pan.

Hey bud. Sick ride, I have a question about your retro though,
do you have any pictures of how you put the projectors in the headlights?
I have S2k Projectors with TSX-R lenses, and I have been trying to put them in some headlights. Any help you can provide would be great!

[vinbon63]

Super clean car man, I remember seeing you downtown once too, looks even better in person.

if your putting them in jdm onepieces headlights like me then you have to trim the s2k projectors lense holder and refelctor bowl down to fit inside the stock jdm headlights reflector which measures 3.5 inch in height and 7 width. you will have to cut the lense holder and relector bowls original mounting points, and make your own.

Thanks man, your coupe is really clean and original as well, seen you around a few times.
