good to see you did one of the more expensive mods first....glad to see your stickin with the car through thick and thin too! great job on the swap.
It made more sense to me since the motor was worn out anyways.
Worked out rather well too seeing as how I have car that'll easily last another 300k miles.

A preview of the cleaning:
Before, my hood had been coated with oil from a spark-plug tube being evacuated with an air hose. (on my old engine of course. ;P )
After, I somehow caught my finger on something and took a layer of skin off a corner of my middle finger. I'm literally sweating and bleeding over this car now.
My sidekick's camera doesn't do this any justice. too much overexposure regardless of lighting.
/sigh

thanks man, what are your plans next for your ride?
haven't really thought about my next step exactly, but I imagine it'll probably be something that's cosmetic in some way.
I'd like to get a bumper like yours with the fogs (any recommendations on locating one would be much appreciated.) and an ex lip. Also suspension is going to be done soon.
I'm in major need of a paint job too. poor thing is chipping and cracking all over.
All-in-all though, I'd like to keep my car looking stock, but with style.
a sleeper stance in a sense.
P.S. Your cluster swap inspires me with it's sexiness. I think I might have to follow your lead.

So I went to the track last night with mxcx and a couple other people with mustangs.
Nobody had a video camera sadly.
Being as it was my first time at a race track, and I've only been driving stick since december, I don't think I did too bad.
I started with a horrific 16.9 second 1/4...
and on my 5th and last run I did 15.8 seconds in the 1/4!
I was going to do one more when the track guys told me I was blowing coolant, so I checked and I didn't see anything.
I checked it again today though, and what do you know, I have a massive leak in my radiator.
Engine is fine though because it didn't start leaking really bad till after I drove again today (I checked the coolant level before I drove too.)
Atleast my dad is willing to help me out on this one since I'm waiting to start my new job.
Should be back up and running in a couple days if not tomorrow.

figured after a month and a half of not being able to drive it, I should update this thread in my accord's wonderful new functioning status.
strike axle set #2.
+1 to Amber corners
+1 to painted grill
+50 to much needed exhaust!
+1000 WORKING POWERSTEERING AGAIN!
Next up is a lower ground clearance and less body roll.
