mndude07 : 1992 Accord DX

[crx08]

Thanks to some help from Kevin, I am now the proud owner of a pair of odyssey knuckles...which I bought for only $30. Be jealous.

Oh and also, ran two civics the other night. One I don't know what it had but I completely walked it no question. The other one was a (quote from the owner: "single cam vtec d series with skunk2 intake manifold, full exhaust, not a piggyback but an apexi neo(which is a piggyback), intake, etc). Apparently this car was "tuned n' shit" and making 215hp, and its an auto....and I beat it. Those civics must be really heavy!

TROOF. np adam! just glad you got the for cheaper than what I paid. 5-lug here we come!

Thinking I want to take my rear speakers and put them up front, strip my rear speaker deck, remove c-pillar trim, remove headliner, remove spoiler, remove carpet, replace with black floor mats with velcro. This is all about lower CG. Better braking, better handling, better weight reduction. Its all stuff I wouldn't miss anyways.

Also, pretty much have the tophat design done, just need to check a few dimensions later on.

Sounds good. IMO 92-93 looks cleaner w/o the wing/spoiler.

Yeah I'm thinking a carbon trunk and no spoiler will knock 20lbs off the rear at least too!

[Clean_4th gen]

Damn, 20lbs sounds good. Are you getting a CF hood?

Eventually, yes. I want to make a carbon roof eventually too, but we'll see about that one.

[Clean_4th gen]

Sounds good, you have a DX so you're on the right path.

I love the manual features on my new car...makes it easier on me when I start modding it.

Yup, for sure. Less is better in a lot of conditions, though I do kind of wish I had abs after some more research. This car is going to get light though. Lots of the interior is going to get stripped out soon.

[Clean_4th gen]

Sounds good, doing the trunk too?

Carbon trunk? Yes, the trunk is already gutted out. Headliner, rear seat, spare tire, carpet, etc will all come out eventually

I was talking about gutting the trunk but sounds good. Do that, do the 5-lug swap, them ship it to Tampa, FL. I'll take care of the rest!

LOL ok, I'll do that if you send me a built K series engine!

Sure, but what are you going to drop it in? Not the CB7 cause it'll be in my hands by then.

Another CB7 lol.

Sounds good then. Everything is cool...as long as THIS DX is mine!
