Really considering swapping to an AP1 S2000, H22 Accord part out?

i got the h22 in my 6g i will take alot of things off your hands

I'm hoping someone would want the custom header + exhaust and fuel pump. I spend around $2500 getting these two and they are impressive. In your state the exhaust would actually be legal.

If you do part lemme know cuz I'm ready to buy the seat(s) now

Ha Ha wow lots of offers for buying that's good. So the overall feel is that the aftermarket parts should go ok. Now what about the stock parts. What if I hold the Accord for pick-a-part purposes. Is anybody going to want stock parts off of it? umm airbag, spare, driveshafts... or should I try to put it back together and sell it as one stock 6th gen?

 

[ls/low'n'slow]

i say sell/trade(for stock parts) all your aftermarket parts and put the car back to stock them sell it as a whole

CF valve cover beauty plate!!! I call dibs!

I would say...keep the car...why?
CHEAPER, LESS HAZZLE, CHEAP INSURANCE, MORE ROOM, LOW KEY....

S2K is a cool car! don't get me wrong but you need to rethink about this choice

I cant dispute your want for an s2k. I sense an AP2 is in my future.

I'm not so sure this car is cheaper than an S2000, not with the mods I've done. Maintenance on the H, carputer and tires, brakes is about the same. I always get liability insurance too.

I won't argue the loss of room or low key aspect. I'll miss these dearly. Likewise I love the coupe penwork of the 6th gen, few cars are as drop dead gorgeous.

But for now this car is career suicide, I shall drop out of gradschool at the rate I'm spending money and time on it, I have to deny myself modding for a few years so I can get a solid degree. I shall return to buy a 6th gen that beats this, the all money can buy coupe 4 seater:

Ha ha nice. My buddy has been talking to me about buying an AP2 for a year now only for me to buy one before him weeks from now. Honestly though AP1 all the way. I'm sure the AP2 has a bit more grunt but it mostly comes from a leaner tune from factory. You can do that on the AP1 with a Hondata setup, at least in your state.

i may be taking the s2k route in about a year or so as well. i kinda miss my del sol and im already growing a lil tired of my accord. i hope you end up getting what you want.

i think you'll get the most money from parting out and going back to stock, and sell the car stock.

if you part out, i call dibs on Apexi WS2, im in socal too

Its not the motor that's swaying me toward the AP2, its the correction Honda made to the suspension. The AP1 have a nasty throttle lift over steer problem that can send you spinning into a gravel pit, or wall, or curb, or house etc. if you make a mistake entering a corner hard. My plan is to run the s2k on the track, so i need all the help I can get!


Hondata is available for the entire model year range, so that's a definitely no matter what year I may get.
