NEW CAR PIC but bad quality, phone don't like the dark to much. I was at a friends house helping with music controlled Christmas lights. They're not great [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/6U55B32.jpg[/thumb] And (one of) my new rims that replaced the bent 17s. Old ones were VIA whoever that is, the acura rims are 16s and made by Enkei. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/cDP5u8h.jpg[/thumb] I plan on a small mod to change the logo to Honda, not sure how to go about it yet.

A CB9 accord if I'm not mistaken
It's a 95 Accord V6. So CE6 and only came in 4 door with a 4 speed auto. If banana's script was still working, you would've just seen that under my avatar but he's mad or something, i don't know. It still needs some work and TONS of wire tidying. Pic dump of stuff I've done and other stuff. When I first saw it.

As far as fwd sedans go, the accord is a good looking car
[QUOTE=Del91;46618796]As far as fwd sedans go, the accord is a good looking car[/QUOTE] I like to think so, but it's got a blind spot that forces me to about-face nearly to make sure it's clear to merge. I need 2 of those little stick on domed mirrors. VLN rates me bows cuz he be jelly of me superior luxury automobile.

Aw damn thats right, the next gen is still the same car underneath the new body panels isn't it? Captive rotors and all...
Cars in the rain look so damn sexy. It's just begging me to find an empty parking lot and do helllamad skids, bro. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/MauHizi.jpg[/IMG]

A 5 speed accord wagon is on my list
[QUOTE=>VLN<;46622753]Your license plate is gold.[/QUOTE] Actually I'm pretty sure it's stamped steel or aluminum.

Does it sound good with "then and now" pics? It does, doesn't it?

Just ordered a Skunk2 catback system for my Civic. I'm quite excited, it's the first aftermarket exhaust I've ever bought. Up until now I've been running a stock (albeit decatted) exhaust.

That gaping hole in the Cat might decrease its performance, and make you exhaust very loud.
[QUOTE=Del91;46620819]Aw damn thats right, the next gen is still the same car underneath the new body panels isn't it? Captive rotors and all...[/QUOTE] Not entirely, the CB Accord was more in line with the EF/DA/EG/DC's. The previous gen like 86-89 was even more similar with technically compatible struts and other pieces. Bradley actually found out that you could toss pretty much all the CB front suspension under the EF to convert it to 4x114. The next gen CD Accords are more inline with the Prelude and moved forward as more of a platform together with the Odyssey, CRV and CL until everything was turned on end sort of with the move to J/K.

You never see them though.[/QUOTE] In my eyes they scream for a F20B JDM Accord SiR motor with the appropriate manual LSD transmission that would slip right right in like stock. I would love to have a car like that for roadtrips lol, just toss a bed in the back. Manual swaps aren't hard, H/F uses shifter cables like an automatic so it's probably even easier, not that the manuals aren't that uncommon on the CB chassis.
Got my tails installed a couple days ago. This marks the end of my exterior modifications, for now. [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/27529672/Personal/RX8/Rearq.png[/img]

Sounded sweet, but not for everyone.
So i had an old 92 ranger siting around with tranny issues and some guy offered me this truck for trade its in perfect working order. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/f0OyLGy.jpg[/img_thumb]

I run a DOHC B16A2 though. Don't know if that makes a difference.

I run a DOHC B16A2 though. Don't know if that makes a difference.[/QUOTE] The Skunk2 catback is a nice piece really but it's going to sound like pretty much just like any straight through muffler. If you put a cat back on instead of a cat delete it should muffle it down quite nicely. Your other option is a resonator 28" or longer. Skunk2 is a cheap brand for the most part, however their more expensive items are good quality. They do however cater to the ebay crowd and try to compete by offering cheap garbage but they end up making up the same cheap Chinese ebay garbage for 2-4x as much as it's really worth.
I already knocked out the internals of my cat, so it's gonna sound like a fucking jet plane with the new catback. fuck. will post results, the UPS driver will be here with it tomorrow.
