    Not worrying about smog check cause all we have here in Virginia is a state inspection which is just a check for safety, brakes, lights, wipers and tires etc...

    Weird sound that started today. I have video

    Now that I listened to it several times it almost sounds like the timing belt slapping the plastic cover does it go away when you rev the engine?

    you could also remove the belts to see if the noise goes away and if it does then its an accessory like a/c or alternator bearing.

    Here's the throttle cable adapter bracket close up pic. Turned the original bracket upside down to get the right angle for the cable.

    Well my throttle cable adapter plate I made houses both throttle and cruise control cables and what I will do is get a cable connector to join the cruise control cable to the throttle cable like a aftermarket cruise control setup will take all of ten minutes.

    I think he did. Has anyone taken the throttle shaft out of the Accords original throttle body and put into the h23a's throttle body? cause its longer by about a inch for the extra cable pulley.

    ^^^^ He's right the JDM ecu's do not monitor the rear o2 sensor so in Cali it wont pass emissions inspection but here in lower Virginia I don't have that problem so I fly a jdm pcf-901 for an automatic perfectly.

    H23a Vtec swap

    Alright got to check wiring to fans today and figured out my problem. It ended up being a stupid mistake when I was lengthening the wire for the fan switch I grabbed the wire to the vtec oil pressure switch!:hands: LOL, This engine and ecu doesn't use the vtec oil pressure switch so no harm no...

    H23a Vtec swap

    Well the first glitch found today after running it for a while is that the cooling fans are not coming on even with the A/C on so applied power to the fans connectors and they run so next I crossed the fan switch with a paper clip and nothing so I need to check the relay and any fuses related...

    yeah I couldn't believe how well its doing and I got lucky so far the engine seems really clean inside & out! some new pics got the header wrapped and installed just waiting on my test pipe and I wont have to worry about the rear O2 sensor cause the jdm ecu doesn't use it lol.

    yeah im using a pcf-901 jdm obd2 ecm which is almost exact drop in for a 2001 obd2 usa ecm with no immobilizer but my car is an automatic so its a perfect fit. Ran it a little more today just idling and a few revs still no check engine light which makes me so happy!
