    mx5Kev's Accord V6 Coupe,EUDM, new pics (56k warning)

    Well thanks :) Yep, your question is quite silly, because they are totally different cars. It doesn't feels like it's the same chassis. The ATR would be painful to drive everyday, the clutch is really hard, it toughen your left leg, so does the steering, no cruise control, no automatic...

    mx5Kev's Accord V6 Coupe,EUDM, new pics (56k warning)

    Hi guy's, I'm back in the south of France for a few day, I had some changes in my life recently. I came back to pick up the ATR. That's why I wasn't much posting recently. So luckily I wasn't in Nice last night and my relative are fine. I have a Kaisenspeed belt tensionner, 8 brand new...

    Diagnosing Oil Leak & Seepage Problem

    Most likely your cam cover gasket, your cam cap gasket, vtec solenoid and oil fitler bracket gasket and oil pan gasket. Just did all of those on mine, now it's leak free.

    No low oil pressure light?

    Thanks for your help, I have finally solved the problem. It was just the plug that was a bit corroded, not making contact. it is working fine again. I have put some dielectric grease to prevent that from happening again.

    mx5Kev's Accord V6 Coupe,EUDM, new pics (56k warning)

    Some news, Did a little work, I changed the shaft lip seal on the gearbox, the one on the top, I do not know the exact name, the one used to select gears and reverse. I had to go out today, and as I had some time, I took some pics in Monaco Port. As usual, the weather was bad :(/>...

    Another Koni question

    The spring should not be loose. With loose spring, you will have a disastrous handling on bumpy roads losing traction as it won't extend as it should. For example, when you fit shorter eibach springs, you need the bilstein b8 shocks with shorter struts to match properly the spring.

    No low oil pressure light?

    If I got what the workshop manual says, it shouldn't. The circuit is closed when the engine is off and it opens when on. I'm going to investigate that further.

    No low oil pressure light?

    As there was no bulb in the first place and had just enough led, I put a classic bulb. So no polarity problem. Tried the bulb it is not burnt. When I go to ignition it doesn't light up. That's why I was wondering.

    No low oil pressure light?

    Hi guy's. I have juste noticed something on my 99 Accord V6. As I was changing the dash cluster bulbs for led, I have noticed that next to the cel, there was no bulb. It looks like it is the oil light. I have tried to put a bulb, normal one, not led, to see if it lights up and nothing. It...

    mx5Kev's Accord V6 Coupe,EUDM, new pics (56k warning)

    Worked a bit on the AV6. I finally did my valve clearance and spark plugs. I'm pretty happy with how it looks inside, pretty clean, camshafts do not look worn. A bit of coal in the EGR lines. May be a good thing to clean it completely one day. And it would allow me to change the cam end cover...

    Trunk weight limits??

    Maybe that's the problem, your springs and shocks are getting old, maybe some bushings too;

    Trunk weight limits??

    Are you lowered already are something? What are your rims size and tyre size? I drove almost 1 000 km loaded to the top, including a Prelude gearbox, suspension, and lot of heavy stuff and the car was almost down to the floor, and it wasn't rubbing the tyres.

    mx5Kev's Accord V6 Coupe,EUDM, new pics (56k warning)

    Well, that's a third type of accord, the asian one this one. But I think it may swap too. On the coupé the best front end would be the acura CL I think.

    thanks, I imagine, I was hesitating with semi gloss, and finally took matte as it looks more like it was originally.

    Thanks, I gave a look at my tires today, well, I may not have been that slow anyway ^^ Today I did a little job I wanted to do for a while, painting my windshield wiper arms. I juste sanded them and painted in matt black. I'll see if it is enough or if I do the job again using a primer. As...
