Here is my 2000 Accord Coupe EX-L 5-speed. This is my second 6th gen coupe, so I've had lots of experience modding and maintaining it. I've transformed the car through several phases, all culminating to the point where it is now.
Update: 6 June 2013
On Dec 1st 2012, I completed my forced induction build and spent all night tuning. I left on a military assignment to the Republic of Korea 7 days later and left the car at my parent's house so my father can get the bumpers replaced, take care of some bodywork and get the car painted while I'm away. Hopefully that will begin soon and I'll have some photos of the progress!
I also have some things I need to take care of before I ship the car to my next assignment. Here's an on-going list of what I plan to do when I return home.

I also have some things I need to take care of before I ship the car to my next assignment. Here's an on-going list of what I plan to do when I return home.
- Swap from Sportline springs to adjustable coilover sleeves so I can raise the car for shipping and inspection
- Install a Vibrant 3" Ultra-quiet resonator to reduce the exhaust volume a little for inspection
- Need new all-season or winter tires for Germany since I'll be arriving during the winter.
- Would like to have wider wheels and run a wider tire (255/40/17) for a larger contact patch
- Figure out what's up with my ABS sensor on the front wheel, causing an ABS light.
- Would like to swap the seats out with some 05-06' RSX-S seats if I can find them
