nice thread you have here jarkz..strickly for cd5-cd6.. you should organise a meet up or something. Before you do are you in NSW? lol.
And CD5 pepz.. need some opinion..
should i get a short ram intake or cold air intake for my F22B Vtec??
which one is better??
Note: Looking for better performance in a stock engine, not for racing just for cruzing, doesnt trash the car revs around 2-4..which give more HP and torque?
which one is better overall? I ve read a lot a lot of peps say its cold intake, alot saying short ram is better
need some help..thanks
If you can get a cold air intake then go for it. Always better than digesting the hot air from the engine bay using a short ram.
Here's some pics of my old cd5 (sorely missed):

Fair enough.. well i been shopping around and cold intake cost way too more then the short ram obviously it has longer pipes..
are both short ram and cold intake street legal?
More honda CD5 aerodecks in this forum

In terms of legal...the pod is visible with a short ram so yes it is illegal in some states.
You should be fine with the cold air intake.
I bought a short ram for my CD5 for $50 bucks with the pod second hand.
I remember at the time seeing cod air kits off eBay for around $120-150 shipped from the US.
let me guess your mods...
- sir headlight
- sir corner parking lights
- tint bumper lights
- 94/95 front grille
- type R lip
- shaved rear plate upper trim
whats next?
i gave up modding my cd5 long ago was just bored thought id post a few pics.
oh looks good man ! loving the lip btw where'd you get your headlights from ?
nice mod you hav there m8, how much did spend all together from the before pic to after pic?
hey im not ynot87 but i'll make a wild guess and say
jdm style headlights = $200
front lip = $200
grille = $100
around there ? im sure he will confirm
I've got those same headlights as pictured one page back. Bought them off eBay then for $150 delivered. I bought the same PU front lip for $120 delivered. Smoked bumper lights for $45 delivered. This was when the AUD was buying .98 USD.
yeh i got similar prices to xenonkuraz
lip= $150 from ebay delivered
grille= $60 from wreckers
bumper lights = $45 ebay delivered
headlights= $190 ebay delivered
gotta love ebay lol
lol yeah getting mugen style lip off ebay, so hard to find cd5 parts in aus (bris) ebay is best lol really need headlights tho. ebay headlights = cost 2 much :(
yeh its cause they are depo headlights from US not oem stanleys
ok, cause im still shopping around to get one of these..
dude, you bought the wrong headlight. the depo us version is for lhd car. they are made in taiwan and for US car. buy stanley for our (rhd) car.
no, lhd and rhd lights are not the same. the reflectors/lenses are not the same. lhd light is designed to steer the light away from the incoming traffic in your left side. rhd is the opposite.
same with projectors. there is however a light that has the capability to adjust to lhd or rhd.
cheers.
Has anyone got, or know of where i can purchase the JDM corners parkers to suit the JDM headlights? I purchased mine without the corners & are having trouble finding them now.
Still waiting on my rims, I'm about to spit the dummy... apparently 2 weeks away still :(
:d cd5 .................................
nicee
yeah I know, i should have bought them complete.
but i got the headlights for a good deal locally, but I've lightly sprayed the factory corners this arvo
with a lense tint. looks alright and will do for the minute.
I ended up getting (well not yet) Light weight - Fin II's in 17x7.5's.

yea man i love ebay my self. look wat i got for my dads EG sedan body kit its used but still good only $150
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....m=250450378652
I got my sound system all from ebay only cost around $480
2x10 inch 3 way pioneer speaker $50 , 12 inch customed pioneer sub $60, $60 12inch DUB sub, 12 inch sub sealed box $30, 2x10inch sub sealed box $30 each. And my DVD 3.5 indash player usb, aux, mp3, SD card reader thats $150, Boss audio 4 channel amp $100. Too bad dont have the cash for the flip 7inch that time because i was 17 yrs old when i got all these from my own pocket and its all brand new lol. :p
I love ebay!!
Looks good MixTapes. CD5's scrub up nicely with a simple lip!
^ nice rims and boot lip spoiler, or stock wing would look good imo.
thanks tmy, hmm yeah defiantly better & bigger tims not sure bout the boot lip spoiler but hmm
lol yeah ebay is great, but i only buy things off power sellers / sellers who have good feedback and sold heaps of items i'd hate 2 be ripped off
nothing much yet besides the 16inch enkei multi stud rims. I got them for $300 2 new tyres and 2 aight tyres. At the moment i have stockies at the front and the 2 gud tyres enkei rims at the back.
I been shopping around for body kit for my aerodeck its just soo hard to find a rear bumper. Or even tail lights. to put mods on my accord. Most of them are for sedans. Ive found some but there all gonna come from US and they cost a fortune on postage. But if i get a better job i might buy the front bar and skirts and maybe custom rear bodykit..
at the mean time ill enjoy wat i have and may be swap wit my dad's EG when i install the front bar. :)
anyones f22b1 still kick in ? cause i cant feel anything, have a feeling my rod bearings are FK*ed
mine still kicks in quite nicely... sorry to hear about your motor though.
randoms.

First ones kit is tooo big for me, Doesn't even look to be color coded properly :|
Hi CD5 lovers. I have a question and i think you guys are best ppl to ask in this forum. See the stock air pipe right? Can you take out the stock air filter and air filter box and replace it with the intake filter? and used the stock air pipe? If I can do that, what size is the intake air filter should i get for the stock pipe? is it 3 inch?
Just askin you guys coz i am planning to get the package of short ram intake which mean the stainless steel pipe and the air filter, but if i can just use the stock pipe and install short ram intake filter in there to save money.
thanks guys
stock piping ID is more around 2.5 inch on the F22b1's, but you can run a 3inch pipe with silicone reducers etc.
Another option if your after a factory look is to use a stock f22a or H22a intake hose and just adapt a pod or airbox.
hey jarkz what do you think of this one? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/94-95-96-97-H...3A1%7C294%3A50
short ram from Ebay?
I just want extra performance from the stock engine without spending too much plus looking fuel efficient.:)
thanks jarkz, i check race nation its CD ACCORD 93-97--------------- $139 for the kit. I can get a JDM cold intake from america in ebay will cost me $109 like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-9...Q5fAccessories
This is my ride. Just got it lowered! What do guys think about the drop? I was thinking of raising the rear a tiny bit so that it is aligned with the front. And also the wheels have slight negative camber. Wanna get it rid of that as well but it might scrub..

nice ride interfooler. imo i think u should raise the rear cause it looks funny for me, cause before my car use to sit like that, then i decided to raise it. what kind of suspension u got?
I got BC racing coilovers.
Got it locally from a shop. They are shipped from Taiwan anyway. All up $1450 fitted.
Not much really apart from a catback exhaust and K&N panel filter.
K&N panel filter? you mean stock intake with the K&N air filter?
Does it give you a bit of HP increave compare to stock Air filter?
I Been shopping around to replace my intake. because Ive seen K&N air filter for stock airbox same price for the short ram kit with the air filter so yea.
wow $1450 + fitted is good man nice, hmm if you lower it more wheels will tuck in
like your ride height interfooler.
Before i start is this possible in a stock CD5 grill? http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65486 this is in a EK civic but is it possible to do this ina CD5 stock grill?
and another question how many screws and where are they located to uninstall the front bumper bar of the cd5?
thanks
Yeah, you could mesh a CD5 grill using that method imo.
last time i took it off with the front bar i did it with the reo attached.... theres 2 on either side of the bar joining the guards, & 4 on either reo mount behind the front indicators from memory.
I was pretty tanked when i did it can't remember lol.
mixtapes- where did u get ur front lip from??
Hectic filo, how'd you go with your air intake setup?
Some piks CD5 aerodeck wagon..from accordwagon club
Finally got my rims yesterday, few pics....
