Nice. i sounds like a classic. i never seen that version of a accord in my life. whats crazier is they make parts for it.
well welcome to the board. keep us updated on that project.

whats great is I live in the desert, which is perfect for the intake system I have setup. yea, i havent seen the same car as mine ever. it feels like a rarity, but I think there are a lot in european countries.
I'm thinking about making a large hole on the front fender. Shape it up to fit a forced intake system, ahh, that'd be so l33t! see this pic? its in the snow, i bet that car would never survive in the snow, it's small tires (stock) do no good. |

yea, always depends on the car. you see, i'm planning on either a hood intake or a fender intake. i have a carburator engine, which means i have the big ass round air filter, opposed to the newer cars with the small cone filters. having this type of filter, i dont need any filter at the end of the piping. - which ultimately means i can get more air suction through the piping.
 i dont think i can get 30 extra horse, but i think i can get 20. my car is about 2000 lbs or less, and with a smaller engine, any modding is highly effective. |

i dont know about beating V8s'.

A friend of mine told me to do a swap, preferably an Integra GSR engine... roughly 170hp. Combining that with the stock weight of my car, approxm less than 2,000 lbs,, I will have real good acceleration. Also with a swap, I will be able to have fuel injection for the racing chip, and a possibility for a turbo charger.
anyone have any ideas about: www.electricsupercharger.com ? this looks pretty impressive when its only installed into the intake. watch some of the videos, it has a cool sound to it too. only downfall is that this eats roughly 12v from the battery. |

maxed out, thing is, i dont know what the max engine size i can fit under my hood. currently, i have a 1.8L engine, which is real small looking. I don't get how I can pull so much right now with such a small engine... heh...
h22, is that a prelude? |

yes it is and that's what most accord owners swap into their rides. it was just a thought. The h22 is a 2.2 DOHC VTEC and the accord engine bay is pretty big

i was talking to some mobil enthusiasts the other day, and they said if i do swap it with a integra gsr or prelude engine, my car would definitely be in the 13's, due to it's less than 2000lb weight.
anyone know how much money a swap + labor would round out to? prob $5k? Thats a ton of cash... |

you can get the whole thiong done for around 3.5-4 on a GSR-B18c becuase those are a easy find in local yards. as for the H22a 5-5.5K more things need in the H22.

yes they do. youll have to upgrade your whole suspension and front axle. do the the enigne being a B series and your car being F series. the F series axle wont work with the B series motor.
