The only modification I could find when I got her was a Lukey sports muffler, so she was completely stock apart from that.

Welcome abourd

[YOanthony]

^ Cheers mate.

Took these photos tonight at an SA Honda Meet.

[Bludger]

welcome abourd mate.

any plans for engine mods?

[curtis265]

nice headlights!

[YOanthony]

welcome abourd mate.

any plans for engine mods?
Thank you. :)
As yes, I plan to drop a JDM H22A in there later down the track, with the appropriate modifications. Im looking to get about 200kw-300kw non-turbo. :)

nice headlights!

8) thank you!

[curtis265]

200 kw atw?

[YOanthony]

200 kw atw?

Yeah, sorry, should have said that. So I guess thatd make it a little more at the engine?
(still a bit new to all the performance side of cars)

[curtis265]

fricken heaps more. quite a bit of work with a H22 too although not as much with a JDM engine

just so you know - an audm h22 makes around 147kw at the fly,but only a bit over 100 at the wheels... :(

[YOanthony]

just so you know - an audm h22 makes around 147kw at the fly,but only a bit over 100 at the wheels... :(
Yep, thanks for the info! But yeah, that's why I want a JDM H22, as they make more power. I also have a guy here in Adelaide who can import stuff very cheap for me. He used to live in Japan and has a lot of friends over there. 8)
So you've worked with a h22 before? : o

[Super-DA9]

the jdm H22 would only be another 10kw maybe from factory most likely due to a small amount of extra compression and a better factory tune (from my understanding), but you need to make sure that the jap spec engine you're looking at is internally in very good condition otherwise it may only make the same amount of power as an audm version due to loss of kw from wear. which would make it kinda pointless haha. :)

however, if you're wanting 200KW ATW N/A you will probably need to swap out every part of the engine for really aggressive parts anyway so in that case having an audm or jdm version engine wont make a difference aside from being able to say your engine is JDM y0 :P

if 200KW is your target, have you considered boost? not saying it's the only way, but it's certainly easier to reach 200kw atw with a turbo setup.

what kind of price can your friend import your engine for?

[viinnh]

holy shit 25000K ?

hm, you make it sound like I shouldn't even bother with the JDM spec unless money isn't an option. But, money is always tight these days. >.<
You've changed my mind, I think I might go for the ADM and hope for the best. :)

I have considered boost, but I uhhh, I dunno. To boost a car that never came out with a turbo is illegal in SA, so it'd mean the car would be strictly for track. And I'd prefer to be able to run through the streets and still be able to use the car daily as legally as possible, but still turn out a great amount of power. :P

holy shit 25000K ?
Yes sir! A lot of people keep saying that and I don't know why. 25000k is the colour temperature, not the brightness. They're still only 35W bulbs. :)

[viinnh]

you must take a night shot of how it looks like !

[YOanthony]

you must take a night shot of how it looks like !

:) I'll take one next time I'm out in the car.
Although, the colour it's meant to be is purple (cause that's what colour 25000k is), but they're more white - light blue. -.o So the people I bought them from sent me another set. I'll take pictures of both and show you. :)

[YOanthony]

Got OEM brand new (still in the box + instructions) Stanley foglights from Indonesia the other week. Installed them today along with cleaning up my head unit wiring (when I installed, I just taped them together. I've now soldered a harness and cleaned it all up) and I installed a button to control my LEDs.

Turbocharging isn't illegal in SA, just need to get it engineered and then Regency approved. If you go through the proper channels it's ok, just expensive.

^ Boot trim. This is the colour I originally wanted. Matt black. :D Looks good I think. At the beginning of today it was gloss black, then chrome, and now matt black. :D

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f144/Anton2436/IMG_5422.jpg

Oh nice! How low are you looking to go?

[ekadelaide1]

Oh nice! How low are you looking to go?

not insanely low, just wnat a nice fitment :) u?

[YOanthony]

not insanely low, just wnat a nice fitment :) u?

With the stupid police of South Australia being super tight about height I have had to rethink what kind of fitment I'm after so many times. :/ But I've decided I'm gonna go low until the guard hits tyre. :) Will still be above legal too. :P Stupid Accord chassis' being so high!

Also as for fitment, probably looking at running 18x8.5 +30 or something, that will bring it right out to the guard. ;D

[YOanthony]

Took off the SiR lip today, stripped the gloss black, smoothed some bumps and hit it with matt black. :) Turned out pretty good I think! Thoughts?

My coilovers are coming from the US, and everytime I decide on a wheel, something always stops me. -.o out of stock, or not in the right offset, or not the right stud pattern. -.o ugh

oh sweet, us stuff can be super fast or super slow! haha yeah i know right! im scared about my wheels i ordered, ive heard from one source they are fine and the next i hear u gota roll the guards and stuff :s .

Did you calculate your offsets?
haha man you need to make your own thread so we can talk in there. :P We seem to be chatting about your car!

[ekadelaide1]

haha man you need to make your own thread so we can talk in there. :P We seem to be chatting about your car!

its 35+ offset, should be ok. haha yeah i know sorry :D just love cars!
what whels u considering for ur accord?

[YOanthony]

its 35+ offset, should be ok. haha yeah i know sorry :D just love cars!
what whels u considering for ur accord?

:P Did you measure it? Like, how much room you have left in the guard, how much the new wheels will push out, etc etc?

Was looking at XXR006, but apparently they're doing pretty shit and are on backorder, then I was looking at BBS LM1s, but I can't find sizes or offsets, then I looked at Work VS-XX, but they're like $3,500 new for 4 wheels. =.= I don't have that much. I been looking everywhere and can't find anything. :/ Looking for that sorta mesh style, but with about 2" lip. Perfect sizes would be 18x8 +35. That would push it right to the guard, not outside, and look perfect. :D Lowered it'd give it a nice flush look.

gota admit i didnt :) but they are only 15' so i'll work it outtt.

that'd be sweet to get a set of xxr006. 18x8 would be hell nice on your car god with that agressive look its already got :)
yeah ahrd to find a nice mesh rim, they r either to old skool or to bling bling haha.

The diameter means nothing when it comes to fitment. It doesn't matter if it's 15", 16", 17", or even 21". What matters is the widths and offsets of both your current rim, and new rim and the amount of room you have between the guard and your current rim. :/ Oh! and the amount of room you have between your control arms and rim.

Hahaha. Yeah cheers man! Just having trouble tracking any down. :(
I'm just having trouble with the size. :/ Don't care about colour, I'll just get them sandblasted / sprayed in flat black. :)

[ekadelaide1]

yeah fair enough. guess i better work it out. i gota admit i rush sometimes :D

yeah thers not alot of 18s around for honda :( haha yeah so true! aint that hard to do!

[YOanthony]

yeah fair enough. guess i better work it out. i gota admit i rush sometimes :D

yeah thers not alot of 18s around for honda :( haha yeah so true! aint that hard to do!

haha we all do! If you put a straight stick (or ruler) directly vertical with the ground so it touches the top of the guard and then use a measuring tape or ruler to measure how much room you have, you'll be able to see how much further you can go out so it stays within the guards. Then you can use an offset calculator to see how they'll fit. :)

man, I'm even starting to settle for 17s, which is what I got on their now. :/ UGH. So gaay.

wow, thats surprising! theres always the wholesaler websites for rota and rays and that,

[infurNOS]

Depends on your budget, if you want quality rims, Ozhonda traders on here have plenty especially jdmconcept (they also have website). I honestly wouldnt go any bigger than 17", with 16" being ideal. What size wheel did they come out with stock?

I emailed JDMConcept, and they said they couldn't help me. I emailed JDMWheelImports, and he said he could help, but the XXR stock is on backorder. Very unstable. I emailed him again today as he said by about August they should be back to normal. :/

They came out stock 15", and I would be keen for 18", but if I have to settle for 17" I guess I would. :/

My budget would be about $1,500 - $2,000 and I still gotta pay for tyres , balancing, camber adjustments and coilovers. :( Hopefully getting a bank loan for $4,000.

I think the MINIMUM loan through a bank is $5k, but that might be just the commonwealth according to a friend. So legally you wouldn't be allowed anything larger then 17". If you go 16" it will be cheaper all up but go for what your heart is set on, im sure the correct choice will still look good.

Nah, 4k will be aight. Spoke with the bank manager. :) I got my ways. ;) hahaha
And they put up the sizes. It's now 3 sizes above stock. So 18 is legal. ;)

Natural camber ftw.

Cheers. ;) I think it looks boss amazing how it is. :P But unfortunately I have to bring it up or maybe shave the hubs down. The guard is sitting 2mm off of the tyre. :/ And I like the height. So I will have to wait and see what I can do about this.

Lip took me about 20 minutes. :P Easiest thing I've installed yet. :P hahaha

[Ðerp]

Get the guards pulled/ rolled a tad, so long as the coils are nice and stiff with enough camber you shouldn't have a problem

[infurNOS]

Did you install coilovers yourself Anth?

Looks good I think.
I raised the rears, slapped on the +35s on the rear, and put the +25s on the front. Sticks out majorly, but my dad said we could put the +25s on the rear and then camber it in. :)
so I'll keep everyone updated on how it goes tomorrow.

For the rear doors. Will go in when I find some wagon rear trims.

[Jasemas]

Dat daws sound system brew

[YOanthony]

Starting taking apart the interior. Tested the new speakers, and they sound amazing! Can't wait to put them in the rears! I took the rear trim off, and it appears the rears have pre cutouts for the speakers! (which were probably made for the wagons!) Then I painted the rear trim to have a look what it's turn out like, and to see how to paint it (I've never painted fabric or vinyl).

http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/546891_515658681785748_367500419_n.jpg

What the black trim looks like inside the car. Still need to do the door handle, but look at the difference. It's so black! :D Looks awesome! Can't wait to do the rest!

[YOanthony]

^ The door handle painted and on there. Looks so awesome.
Used the flash so it would differentiate the colours.

It's super cool! Glad I did it! And the paint ran in like 3 different places on the handle, when it dried, none of them were left! Must be magic paint! hahahah! So happy with the outcome!

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f144/Anton2436/IMG_1731.jpg
^ Courtesy light (left) and door grip (right).

Don't have a pic of the door handle up close, but you can see it on the first pic. :) Turned out great!

They all turned out amazing! >:D Can't wait to do the other ones!
Although, I've finish my can of paint. :/ Thank god for staff discounts!

The other speakers will be going into the rear later next week. :D
This no upgrades the speaker system to an 8 speaker system.

[YOanthony]

How did you make the tweeter holes?

Amp and Sub next ?

I traced around the tweet housing, then got a scalpel and cut the vinyl out, then got a hole saw and drilled out the hole. :) Piece of cake.

Yep! :) Gotta put the old speakers in the rear doors, wire the front speakers and parcelshelf speakers to a 4 channel amp, then a monoblock to power 2 subs. :)
Gonna pound hard. ;)

You can see on the climate control the button all the way to the right down the bottom (under AC) doesn't light up much... if at all :/ I also gotta get some "downlight" LEDs for the top. The white ones I got in today are WAY too bright! :(

Anyway to make the LED disperse the light evenly throughout the cluster?

Nah. :( I heard you can break it doing that. Don't know if that's true, but I don't wanna risk it. :(

But seriously, my car means the world to me! :D She has a very large sentimental value attached to her and a very special place in my life. She's seen or heard about every part of my life over the past two years. :/ More reliable and understanding than a girlfriend and can still get my heart racing. ;) LOL that was weird to say. :P
Her and I have a special bond, and when I drive her it feels like her and I are entwined as one, that nothing can ever go wrong. I talk to her everytime I sit in her (driving or not) and I wouldn't sell her for any amount of money. I have money, and I can get more of it if I choose. But I would never be able to replace this car.

hahahaha the most asked question over all the forums ! No, unfortunately not. -.o I've had to put it off a little as I've had little time to run out to the shops and grab the materials I need to put them in. I've been pushing a lot of hard hours at work and university.
I am hoping my dad will go pick up what I need this weekend and start making the brackets for me, but he said he wanted to build a garage as ours has sort of ripped open with some of the strong winds and harsh rain :/
