    Where to buy a good JDM engine?

    I thought this was too good of a question to not already have been covered, so here's a thread for it lol. I'm looking for an H23 VTEC, but this can apply to any engine. It should have reasonable miles, decent shipping prices and be a complete package.

    DIY: OEM Manual Leather Seat

    Here’s the deal. My driver’s power seat slider was kinda loose, so I decided to swap it for a manual one. Not only do I like manual seats better, but it also shaves 17 pounds off the car! I picked up a manual seat from a junkyard for $50, and did the whole project in a few hours. The swap is...

    Infinite Bubbles!

    I just installed my Prelude/Legend GS brake upgrade. I also swapped on some SS lines, and decided to replace my rear calipers, pads and rotors while I'm at it. Here's my problem: I did one corner at a time, and when I was done I tightened everything up and bled the calipers. The front ones...

    Replacing Bushings

    I keep wanting to replace all the worn-out bushings in my suspension. Only problem is, I don't know what to look for. I don't want to have to piece them all together individually, so it would be just dandy if there was a complete kit for our cars. Does anyone know where I can get these?

    Lower Tie Bar?

    I came across some lower tie bars for the CG chassis and didn't know much about them, so I did some research. From what I saw, everyone who purchased them (lower tie bars in general) had good reviews, saying that it made a noticeable difference and was worth the money. I'm wondering if anyone...

    Performance Control Arms?

    Does anyone know of some performance control arms and/or wishbones, etc. for the 6th gen? If so, do you think these upgrades are worth it?

    Black steering wheel trim?

    I'm trying to figure out if the 6th gen came with an option for an OEM black steering wheel. All I've seen so far is beige or dark grey, even on the cars with black interior. Did any Accords come with this? Or can I swap the column cover from a TL, CL or Odyssey perhaps?

    FS: Acura TL Ebony Woodgrain Wheel

    I'm not the one selling it, but I saw it on eBay and they're pretty rare so I wanted to get the word out. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221800571518?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    Wiring Help

    I'm trying to install my auto-dimming mirror, and the instructions say to wire it up in the driver footwell area. I already have the wires fed through the interior panels and everything's in place, and I've already grounded the negative wire. It says to wire the positive lead into an...

    Do 6th Gens come with an OEM undertray or splash-shield that covers the whole bottom of the engine bay?

    5-lug Swap Question

    When doing the 5-lug swap, do you need to swap the brake lines too? I have a 4-cyl EX-L sedan with 4-wheel-disc.

    Illuminated Hazard Button

    I noticed that for some reason the red triangle on my hazard button does not light up, although it does on some other 6th-gens I've seen. And no, it's not a burnt out bulb. I'm wondering if I could just plug in a clock/hazard assembly with an illuminated button, and everything would work and the...

    DIY: Intake Heat Shield (F23)

    So I was thinking of cheap and easy ways to increase performance, and what I came to was a heat shield. Luckily the intake is already mostly blocked by the battery, but I wanted a more legit and effective shield. So I made one, and here's how. What you'll need: Cardboard Tape Sharpie ABS...

    Replacement Eibach Sway Bar Bushings?

    I just bought a used front & rear Eibach sway bar combo from another member. Unfortunately, the bushings that came on the rear bar are shot to hell, and need to be replaced before installation. They didn't come with the upsized bracket either. Luckily the front bar is the same diameter as OEM...

    Shockz 'n Springz

    So this is about the 14,573rd thread on this topic, but whatever. I have Tanabe NF210 springs installed, and I'm trying to figure out what shocks would best match them. These springs have a very subtle drop, and are designed for max ride comfort. Here are the specs: Front drop: 1.2" Rear...

    VTEC Upgrades?

    WARNING: POTENTIAL STUPID QUESTION ALERT! I only have a loose concept of what VTEC is and how it works. I know that it's a variable valve timing system, and exists mainly in the ECU, but I'm almost positive there is a physical VTEC solenoid somewhere... Anyways, I was just curious if there...

    WTB: Mini BBK

    I'm looking to buy a complete setup that includes larger rotors, larger calipers, and preferably matching pads. The rotors must be 4x114.3 (prelude or CL) and it must include all brackets and hardware for a plug-n-play installation. Please let me know what you guys have, thanks!

    Which Speakers?

    I'm gonna go ahead and repost the generic and classic "Which speakers should I get" thread. Anyway, I already have an aftermarket head unit, and I'm planning on doing full sound-deadening very soon. The only step left is to upgrade the speakers. I'm not doing an amp or subs, just keeping it...

    Lightened OEM Crank Pulley?

    I've already been digging around on this forum for info about lightweight pulleys. Based on my research (and popular opinion), I decided that an aluminum crank pulley isn't the best idea, since it has no harmonic balancer and will damage the crankshaft over time. And apparently, nobody knows of...

    4x114.3 Brake Upgrade Options?

    I'm just testing the water for brake upgrades on my 4-lug. I read the sticky on this, but almost all the options listed in that thread are 5-lug. Does anyone have any good suggestions for a cheap OEM upgrade to a 4-lug setup? I refuse to buy a 5x114.3 adapter or all new wheels, so that's out of...
