    I totalled my 01 ex sedan

    This thread turned out to be quite the discussion, haha. Yes, I am not able to make a for sale thread so I didn't attempt it. I'm not actually wanting to sell anything off the car. I was more thinking that there are some parts of the car that are still in very nice condition and I figured...

    I totalled my 01 ex sedan

    The scenario involved neither a stop sign or stop light. Picture a four lane highway where it intersects but somehow doesn't warrant a traffic light. I was stopped waiting to turn left, another car was doing the same in the opposite direction. The traffic behind this other car had lined up...

    I totalled my 01 ex sedan

    Oh I'm quite alright. Unfortunately it was my fault, heavy rain doesn't mix with low light and old wipers. The wire you see in the bay is just zero gauge wire running to the trunk. You don't need to buy a grounding kit, just pick up some ofc 4 gauge and a few connectors. Easy job

    I totalled my 01 ex sedan

    Hey guys, I was in a wreck a few weeks back that absolutely demolished the car. It makes me sad to see the car I enjoyed so much in the shape that its in. I thought I would share a few pics as what is most likely my last post on the site. I purchased a 2006 TSX and will hopefully find a forum...

    You must be talking about cpcc, i am student there and that deck is the reason i cant go any lower. With the swap its pretty straight forward... 1. Get a prelude p5m ecu that is the year of your accord or newer. 2. Satisfy all emissions requirements of that ecu 3. Bypass imobilizer...

    For you audiophile elitists

    For sure the car environment is not ideal for audio bliss. I love the way my accord setup sounds but compared to my home setup, the car sounds a bit unfocused. However, i do sometimes sit in the car with the engine off and listen at lower levels. Blues sounds pretty damn descent in there if i...

    For you audiophile elitists

    I know this is an old thread but i have to chime in. I agree with what the writer is saying mostly; however, he/she is presenting the information in a way that key factors could be over looked. It basically said that great equipment will sound as good as great equipment. The problem is that...

    Alarm/ Keyless Entry

    Anything produced by DEI is a good choice. They make pretty much all of the systems named after snakes. You can do remote start as well if you want it. If you havent done 12v installs before then alarms is not where you want to learn. That being said, if you are going to try an alarm install...

    easiest way to get around 450 hp?

    i think a lot can be done for a 7k budget. My swap from an auto f23 to a 5spd h23a cost me a grand total of $1400. I dare say that if i was looking to boost it, i could make it happen for the remainder of $5600. high mileage h22's are super cheap and if planning to go turbo that would be the...

    Yes it was. The airbag that came with mine was a single stage so I think the airbag is from an earlier year. My car has a dual stage srs setup so for now the airbag isn't connected, but physically the wheel mounts the exact same as ours.

    Engine swap questions

    My hats off to you, I dont think i could have done the swap without a lift. Even with the lift I had issues because of the lower crossmember kept hitting the edge of the dolly i had the motor on. I was super paranoid of ripping off the IAB box as well.

    ill snap some pics and get them posted soon. The car exterior wise looks like any other granny grocery getter and the paint is utter ****e. The interior is as clean as ive ever seen on a car this old, the car came with the gray leather. The only visible mod on the car is a s2000 ap2 steering...

    Hi everyone! Ive used tons of info off of this site and finally decided to register. I have a black 2001 4dr EX and have used it as my daily driver for the better part of a decade now. I had no intention of modding the car until recently when the factory f23a decided it was time to crack. I...

    2001 Accord H22A4 Build

    I just finished my H swap and it is completely obd2 scan tool compliant. There are quite a few hurdles in the process and I had to pull info from dozens of resources to get it finished. First find a prelude ecu that matches your evap setup. The preludes changed the evap design the last couple...
