__________________________________________________ _______

hey everyone.. ive been on here more than 2 years.. yet i havent posted any pix of my CB7..
major construction underway:
currently rebuilding an h22a out of 2 h22 motors!
being painted Flamenco Black Pearl or Thaffita White.. ASAP, just getting some body work done first.

All the mod info and etc.

1990' Accord EX-R (Reppin' Kingston, Ontario Canada)
H22a swapped as soon as it's built which includes:
JDM H22a Head w/ Stage 1 port and polish and lapped valves
USDM H22a4 block (temporary)
ARP Head-Studs
Cometic High Pressure headgasket
Hondata style teflon IM gasket
ACT Extreme Pressure Plate with ACT Street Disc Clutch
ACT Prolite 8.5lbs flywheel
JDM H22a tranny
Running on a JDM P13 ECU Socketed for KhoiFAB Mild & Aggressive Street chips

-dropped 3" or so on TM coil-overs (temporary)
JDM one-piece Headlights (INSTALLED! Philips 4300k HID retrofit)
DIY 90' EX-R lip (top) with 92' EX-R lip (bottom) (temporary, until i find a 6th gen GReddy lip)
Custom debadged and screened grill
GReddy SP Exhaust
Autometer Sport Comp (black-faced).. Air/fuel, Oil Pressure and Boost gauges
real JDM ITR shift boot w/ ITR replica shift knob<-- whoever cares about that
2001 Prelude SH heated front seats

As for styling cue's i personally love the clean lines, clean looks, NO CHROME, NO RICE... OEM/J-Spec look.. subtle body mods and colours.. for a more FUNCTION OVER FASHION perspective.. with all attention to detail of performance and Engine work over any kind of BLINGFACTOR looks, NOT into body kit's whatsoever (BUt each to his own) i've been infected with the JDM bug for about 3 years now!

nice..........

*edit, i dont know if i like those 2 lips like that..

[93accordexcoupe]

ooo nice car man, i really like the white chop, u should try and get it as close to that as u can, thats cool

[cp[mike]]

the white and black chops are outstanding, i like the wheel choices in both. if you can, fiberglass/mould the front lips together before you paint the car, like you chopped in the white pic... looks really nice... good job on the car, post pictures as you progress

[BB6-SH]

Car looks good so far man keep up the good work

[mixmatch]

on the lips...it would look better imo if you molded them together as one lip or possibly molded them to the bumper also.

but looks like you got lots of plans

[H23 Lude]

looks nice dude

[Final 204]

yea if those front lips could be molded and smoothed together perfect that's actually a pretty cool idea hah keep it up

[sickoffthe206]

Nice car man Do you mind me asking were you can buy that skirt package?

[4genaccordfreak]

thanks to everyone for the comments..

all i did to fuse the lips was bolt the 90-91 lip from my old bumper to the new 92 bumper then self tap screwed the two lips together.. just be careful since there isnt alot of extra plastic to screw into.. so plan it out carefully.. and remember.. that DIY lips is only temporary until i can find a 6th gen accord GReddy lip.. although i havent found any under 300$CDN.. so it can wait till motor is swapped!..

Nice car man Do you mind me asking were you can buy that skirt package?

haha.. thats just a photochopped skirt package bud.. all it consists of is the smudge tool and alot of careful streaking.. thats it.. ahaha although i do have 5th gen accord Wings West side skirts.. since they are the cleanest ones i was able to get my hands on... but they fit totally different than the 4th gen skirts.. so im not sure what im going to do with them!

[oneoffaccord]

the best pic has to be the white with the work wheels. the frontlip have to GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[bracersi]

Go with the volks dude, those rims are sick.

[HYBRID ACCORD]

do the black with the enkeis
nice car!!!

[Granite CB7]

Really love your car! Also like the dual lips and the light blue w/ Bronze Volk's. Cannot wait to see this thing painted and then boosted! Nice work.
