rocketman_471 : 1990 Accord LX

[rocketman_471]

Other projects....

My buddy Eric's 90 Integra wiring issue with the headlights....







Fixed....


Current Condition: Eric traded this Integra for a 1990 Ford GT Mustang Foxbody

My friend Jesse's 92 Civic Hatch motor swap & front body kit....







AC deleted....


Old motor....


New bumper....


Current Condition: The new motor has a rod knock, so he's trading straight across for a CRX and gets to keep the motor out of this one! The CRX is in perfect working order!

Speaker install and sub system tweak on my sister's boyfriend, Gino

The truck....




Taken apart....




The old and new speakers....


Back in the car....


All buttoned up....


Current Condition: The sound system is all dialed in and sounding AWESOME! I didn't post any pics of the sub tweak because all the problem was a bad ground. Very simple, no work really.

~UPDATE 04/04/10~
I spent part of my weekend working on a V6 Toyota pickup with my bud Justin, repairing a busted head gasket and water pump. I only got pics of the head clean-up, but here they are....

Dirty....


Clean....

I replaced my headlight over this weekend because it got damaged in a storm a little while back, and I owe most of it to djcaz_aom's DIY on black housing OEM headlights: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...ight=diy+black

All of these photos were taken in my friends garage and on my phone

New and old....


Bumper pulled down and headlight out (I couldn't figure out how to get it un-hooked from the inner wheel well splash gaurd)....



All complete again....

UPDATE!!!

Yesterday, I had attempted to install a new fuel filter, and after cross-threading the first one, having fuel squirt everywhere, getting it so tight it stuck on and wouldn't come off, and after 4 hours of sitting and waiting for some vice grips that never came, I finially got the line off and a new filter on. During my "down time" that I was waiting on the vice grips that I eventually gave up on, my hood spacers arrived in the mail, after waiting for them for over a month! So hopefully I'll be taking some pictures tomorrow with the stickers gone and the spacers in!

If I've got the money, I try to do something all the time! Like today, I just replaced my front torque bar and installed my Energy Suspension polyurethane motor mount inserts.

but it was the craziest thing though. When I got the package in the mail, it looked like someone had opened it by ripping it and then taped it back together.
