vti-s manual???

[VTEC96]

Is the any vti-s manual 5th gen accord from factory. Also how hard is it to convert the vtis electronic climate control to an accord with the round dials for heater.

[poid]

yeh VTi-S came in manual from the factory. Since climate control usually is the bit that needs more sensors, going back to a normal heater control should be straightforward

hehe, funny thing u say that... not many manual VTi-S's around, but on the last accord cruise i think only one was auto, Robbie's...

i think...

I got a manual! and its for sale too!
Dang, i really should get off my butt and advertise it...

Poid, i think he is asking about putting climate in a VTI/Exi accord (who wants to get rid of climate???)... AFAIK its not really feasible. Better off buying my VTIS and selling the leather seats if you want the lighter pov-pack feel :) (jks - no offence to those with VTi & EXi accords!)

[Calvo]

i got gipped... no frikin climate control in my car... but i dont care coz i hate it anyways... haha

[h22a accord]

for a start you will need to pull out the whole dash, change the under dash wiring looms, add an outside air temp sensor, a sunlight sensor, an in car temp sensor.


if you can find a written off vti-s and get the wiring diagrams from both e vti and vti-s and are prepared to do alot of stuffing around then i say go for it! but it will be heavier.

thanks ppl, nah dont wanna get rid of my c/c panel. i wanna do up an accord. but want a vti-s manual. i love all options in a car. but it would be easier i think if i do a h22a changeover if the car is also manual.

Hey dominik how much you selling, why you wanna sell for, and is your manual from factory.

[Dominik]

Its a factory manual, highish kms (but that would probably not phase you if you are intending to do a swap). Asking $10k flat, it is lowered 3.5" on Kmac springs, blue mirror tint and simple 17"s. VTiS options such as Climate, sunroof, leather, cruise control etc...

Reason for selling? I'm importing a VIP car from Japan :D I want factory Air suspension! To hell with cheaper insurance and fuel bills, just gimme air!! LoL!

[Dominik]

Oh yeah, its got a 7" screen and Kenwood flip face CD player too (just needs one of the portable DVD players...)

[VTEC96]

cool. Every vtis iv seen thats auto has the climate control. the manual vtiS do not have it. Yous must be limited edition lol i want it lol

[poid]

mine is a manual VTi-S and has the climate control

Dom, your car has quite a bit less km's than mine doesnt it?

[Dominik]

240,000 (just under)... what are you on?

[Calvo]

hah, coz u rack up so many k's from wheel spin pete :)

[poid]

ahhh just more than me, i'm on 232k i think

BAH calvo :P

[h22a accord]

im on 228,000. engine and gbox are on 93000 :)

[Dominik]

Well, in that case i take it back. It has 'average' Ks :D

And cam, my car is from your way (Orange), so its a country car with country kms and none of that nasty sea-salt induced rust! LOL...

[poid]

mine was a perth car originally, then made its way to sydney, where it was living out west on a property. Then made the move to canberra. So the sea induced rust is missing from it as well (only hint i've seen is on the front crossmember, bit of surface rust)

[VTEC96]

thats weird, all the vti-s manual that are for sale dont have it. so far im lovin dominks accord the best.
