brsteinbach : 1990 Accord LX

Stopping by to show some appreciation. Apexi resonator is a 4" diameter? That's awesome.

I am interested on how low it's going to hang. I want to pick up a Vibrant Performance resonator my self. 2.5" inlet/outlet, 18" OAL, and 4" OD around the casing. I can't wait till you post up some pictures of that.

So I took some pictures with a few friends and I also shaved the front license plate holes. Nothing big but I'll still post pics.

^A little plate I made to cover that hole to keep my bay clean.

I'm liking the pictures you take, you've got a clean engine bay..
Car looks good on those 15's still trying to decide if I should go 15 or 16 this really helps out a lot.

Yep, 4" in diameter, but have some bad news, and the reason I havent been on here or updated my thread. The old slush box (auto tranny) died on me a couple months ago. So I bought a parts car (5 speed) and will be swapping it after this horrible WI winter. Thanks you for stopping in! and sorry I didn't reply earlier.

Thanks man!!! I love my wheels but in a way I wish they were 16's, but don't we always want what we don't have lol.

Alright everyone, I'm sorry for those of you who like my car and were following my build and I apologize for it coming to abrupt stop and not updating.

So here are some updates!!

As many of you know from either reading on here or seeing some Facebook updates, my automatic transmission died and I ended up buying a manual parts car for the majority of the swap.

So on with the pics and a good amount of them, just a early warning some are Instagram copy's and all the others are raw nothing exciting.

[Andrewasoar]

I'm excited for the updates!

[brsteinbach]

So this is how it began, I was out cruising around and my transmission started to slip to the point where I had no gears in any gear lol . So I limped home and started to rip into her the next day.

How I got it (wheels flat and one spare) Sketchy going down the interstate with it on the tow truck like that.

Slapped my Steelies on it.

Random interior shot, it was disgusting! It was wet, moldy, stinky... Which is too bad cause the seats were mint besides the smell.

253,640 miles on the clock, this may be why the timing belt snapped cause it was never changed SMH! Oh well Worked for me lol.

Bay shot of the parts car, you can see the timing belt cause I popped the timing cover off to check.

Old aluminum wheels.

This axle nut broke 3 craftsman breaker bars, and it wouldn't come off with a decent electric (plug in) impact.

084 by brsteinbach, on Flickr

Oh yeah! It had brand new stock exhaust!

[brsteinbach]

And MOAR!

EWWWW

A little better.

If you can see it in the pictures, the engine bay of the parts car was horribly disgusting. They did not take car of that car whatsoever! It had a good 1/8" of greasy gunk ALL OVER the engine and transmission.

Thanks for checking out the progress everyone!

[Andrewasoar]

Nice! I wish I could find a new stock exhaust cheappp. I'm sick of my loud ebay stuff. But I'm glad to see you've got it converted. The first time I saw this car on stance works I fell in love with it!

Some random engine bay shots before she went out of commission

Yeah I put a new high flow cat on and took the can off my ebay exhaust to try to quiet it down.

Thanks a lot man, I appreciate it!
