    I don't mind being knocked off, ridiculed, made to feel minuscule, When you consider the source it's kinda pitiful.

    Haha. Thank you. The black part that the rear lip is attached to is molded onto the bumper, so some people say it's a lip and others don't. But, thank you again. It was a pain to install.

    And that would be my car leaking. It's from banging my oil pan against the ground while driving around. I just need a new pan and gasket. Not that big of a problem.

    It wasn't my first choice. But it comes in handy when sitting in bumper to bumper traffic and driving between 1500 and 2000 miles a month. Plus, I don't ever see my car as a track car, so the auto will be fine for this car.

    Thanks. This forum looks better than most other accord forums I've seen. Plus there seems to be more active members here.

    Car crapped out on me. The crank pulley keeps coming loose. It has been tapped and a helicoil inserted. It held up good for a week or so, but it's loose again.

    I have a spare identical motor sitting on my side yard.

    I plan on replacing the timing belt and components, the water pump, and all leaky gaskets(distributor is leaking and oil pan). Then I am going to swap this motor in.

    The spare motor has been sitting for a long time. I was wondering if anyone had any more suggestions for my issue.

    Eventually. Championship white with black lower trim. But I still have jdm foglights to install (I need some brackets) and coilover sleeves (I have both of these just sitting around). The car is too tall in my opinion and needs too many other things before paint. I need new headlights and grill (I have 90-91 headlights and grill and a 92-93 front bumper; which leaves a gap between the mentioned pieces. Not noticeable in photos too much, but it kills me when I look at it in person. And an exhaust set up (I'm getting hooked up for free). So I have too many plans in the works right now to worry about the paint. But it will come eventually.

    Thank you. It definitely needs paint. But now I am chasing down an acceleration wobble. Tire shop said it was a bent rim, but I put it in the back and the acceleration wobble was still the same. Scratching my head on this one.

    About 3 weeks ago, the timing belt snapped while going 65 on the freeway. Pulled over as fast as I could. Dealt with AAA for three hours till my car was towed. I removed the front bumper to make it easier for the tow guy. So, I swap in a new timing belt and crossed my fingers that I didn't bend any valves. Started right up and runs like a champ. So...

    photoshoot with my wife and her s2k.





















    Looking for a job now so I can afford to do new mods this summer.
