crazymikey : 1990 Accord LX

[SOHC-FTW]

No car on this site is built for speed maybe with the exception being Ronald's cars. Even purely from an aesthetics viewpoint a WS2 is a nice upgrade. Keep your F until it pops. Only reason I went H is because old reliable finally gave up the ghost.

There's 400-600+whp cb's on this site lol.....IMO thats definitely in the speed class.

Keep up the work mikey.

[Mike1357]

I think speed in terms of cornering as well as straight line speed. Lots of power, but lots of suspension work too.

Mr. SOHC ninja edit...

[SOHC-FTW]

It takes alot more than power to go down a straight line and run worth a crap. Alot goes into a drag suspension setup aswell and if shaving 6+ sec off a stock cb isn't about speed i don't know what is.

And more than a few autox and road race their cb's on here aswell.

I just noticed your climate control in another thread, what's it from?

[Mike1357]

I suppose I am making a lot of assumptions with my previous statement and I will say that you are right about the other cars out there. Well, enough with screwin up Mikey's MRT.

Edit

I believe that's stock in certain models. There's a section in the owners manuals for them.

[crazymikey]

Mine's a base model. DX cars got the slider controls, while the LX/EX got the push buttons.

Ya know, I've never been in a DX, never knew they were totally different.

[keepinitclean]

Just noticed that too. I like it better than the dials to be honest.

And even with aftermarket mufflers on stock exhausts.

ebay catbacks are the worst.

But yes, you are correct. I would totally rusn a WS2 or something, but my car isn't built for speed....unless I do go ahead with an H swap. The F is just my reliable driver.

I run a WS2 on stock exhaust piping and stock intake tubing... the sound really reminds me of a stock G35 or 350Z in both volume and tone
('course the only reason I'm running a WS2 is because I picked it up for $40 off kijiji after my stock muffler rusted out)

Looks sweeeeeeet with the 9293 trunk/spoiler. But not feeling the rear lip anymore :P and you should really start looking for sidemarkers

[crazymikey]

Yeah, I need a matching rear lip to go with the front. One day.

[crazymikey]

So, I sold the parts sedan. I paid $1100 for it.

Sold it for 800. Sold the JDM headlights for 200, and sold my Tein springs for 150. Total of $1150.

Did I just profit $50 on a beat up parts car, and get free 17s, F&F coilovers, lip and bumper upgrade out of it all?! Yes. Yes I did. Don't ask how, because I'm still wondering LOL

[Quashish]

Don't ask just enjoy

[crazymikey]

Of the 950 I had in my pocket this morning:

-$200 paid to the wreckers on my tab
-$110 to credit card
-$110 to photo radar ticket
-$100 to phone bill
-$75 owed to my parents
-$50 to my roommate for his old phone to replace my drowned phone
-$150 for rental truck & trailer to deliver the car to the buyer on Saturday (this is why I got 950 instead of 800, he paid for the rental)

So I'm left with $155 in my pocket lol.

Your car makes me want to paint mine white.
