Bisimoto's 2013 Honda Accord SEMA build

[SOHC-FTW]

To be honest those are some of the butt ugliest seats i have ever seen, and why is the top door molding lifted on the end and the seal chewed away right above it?. I have no issue with nitrous though it's perfectly acceptable even with all the time in the world.

i like what i see, the accord already looked clean itself. jus just put the final touches it needed to make it beast.

they maybe ugly, but maybe he had to work with what was available at the time.

those are recaro porsche-specific seats: http://www.design911.co.uk/fu/pt67_1...ro-Race-Seats/
being that he has been getting pretty heavily into porsche's recently i'd say he had a pair kicking around that he had re-covered. i personally think they look amazing in this thing.

as for the door, are you talking about this pic?

the fraying looks like slightly sloppily cut CF-look vinyl wrap, and the "lifting" is a visual illusion from the light-dark transition immediately under the trim

[SOHC-FTW]

Not a illusion at all lmfao i am on my TV screen and can zoom in. There is a gap and the seal is chewed up. I really don't care what seats they are, it will not change my opinion on them.

Thanks for all the chime in's, kind words and opinions.

Here are a few pictures of our other two SEMA builds:



Bisimoto 911 Porsche Cab Twin Turbo







2013 Hyundai Elantra

Now that's more like it! I must admit that I am sad to see the company seeming to be moving away form honda's. I understand the move though, new markets and a base of customers with more money to spend!

I demand a sound clip of that porsche, and that elantra has to handle like a go cart around corners.

Thank you, however we will not move away from the Honda/Acura market. We are only adding onto what we currently have to broaden our product lines and exposure to the masses. Much of the same technology you see in the Porsche and Hyundai such at drive by wire throttle body, coil on plug, and advanced turbo setups can be applied to Honda/Acura as well.

We will soon have videos and more information on the Porsche. We are still tinkering with her to get it dialed in.

Here are a few videos of the Elentra on the Dyno:

Im not a fan of the Elantra period, but it does look good. A little less on the graphics and added a lip kit with a few touchs of the sponsers would be alot better

I know about the COP swap setups on older Honda/Acura's. It is doable for 1/4 the cost of an AEM setup as well. As for the drive by wire throttle setup. They can keep that tech to themselves. I'm not a big fan. Only wires I use for throttle control are the 3-4 that are twisted together to make a throttle cable. I despise my wife's GA drive by wire throttle setup. The old peddle feed back just isn't there.

Yeah it is an Elantra, but I was still happy with the finished product.

Lol! Well the drive by wire setups we have developed, I can assure you this is not like your wife's car. Throttle response is instant and it allows us to setup more stable idle control for engines with aggressively ported cylinder heads and wild camshafts! Not to mention incredible traction control!

Check out this video of the DBW setup we developed being tested on the bench at AEM's facility: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqSh6YszNKI

What is Bisimoto Engineering's honest opinion of the build quality and performance of the Hyundai vs a comparable Honda? Please talk numbers, I'm a Mechanical Engineer.

Also, why was a nitrous system chosen for the new Accord rather than a supercharger or turbocharger?

Finally, for other people's education...the newest Accord is actually a little lighter than the previous one.
