Sorry to thread jack earlier. Anyway I absolutely love what you've done with your accord! I hope to one day have a paint job half as nice as your's is!
What happened though, after you got pulled over and they checked your engine bay? After that happened it seemed like all was over and you were going to have to get rid of it.

You have open lines and its ok, so I think something is wrong with my rack. It was only real stiff at certain points in the turn.
I have a dohc valve cover I want to shave and cut like you have it. I think you'll agree it wouldn't look right with the power steering line running across the crank gears with no cover. but I like how yours look with the greddy belt, plus the adjustability for tuning
Sorry to jack your thread tho
@Rilas, I'm thinking DX rack if I get a new one
That would be the best choice.

Originally posted by DCB7 View PostSounds like what I would think as well. It wouldn't look right tho with the power steering still on there. I even took my ps belt off to try it out. It made my reservoir overflow than a bitch, and it was stiff as hell. I heard it's not as stiff with the pump removed. I had a daily with no power steering once and it wasn't that bad. That was on 13 inch skinny wheels tho, lol.
My CB is mainly a daily cruiser now, and I realized I drive one handed almost always, so I may have to skip ps delete for now. Can't have it both ways. (Unless I had another ride more comfortable of course lol)

Originally posted by jdm_inspired View PostSo far so good. I heard about the risks of it, but I've been lucky so far. I'm not going off-road or anything but I can see how a pebble or rock can get in there. My theory might be wrong but with those gears spinning as fast as I think it does, the rock would have to drop in perfect timing in-between the teeth. Any rock bigger than my pinky nail I would even wonder how it would fly up the engine bay that high. In other words, I feel its pretty safe.
