1. Is this your first car?
Yes.
2. How did you end up with the accord?
Well, at first it was my family's car. My dad and my Mom ended up to buy two other cars for them, so i decided to buy the accord off them. I'm very proud of this car just because every single thing on this car is from my own money. I've never received any money from my parents for my baby.
3. When did you first start modifying cars?
I started modifying the accord when it was still the family's car. It was 2006. My Dad at first didn't really care about it, but my Mom complained a lot about how it's too low and too "stiff".
4. Did you run into any problems along the way when you were modifying stuff?
Well, people always say "you gotta pay to play." From the axles, cambered tires, etc.
Another problem is my girlfriend being jealous to the car, but she's fine now. She threw out like four times because my car is too stiff hahaha...
5. Why do you do it? Why not leave it stock?
That's a question lots of people asked me. It's an accord. Why do you even bother to mod it? Well for me, to mod and fix up cars are just my personal satisfaction. Even if i get my next cars, i won't stop. I love to be "unique" in essence of not being the same as the accords that your mom/grandparents drive.
6. What other mods do you have planned for the car?
Right now my transmission is giving me a little problem. If i have enough money, i'd do the H22 or H23 tranny swap. Also fresh paint is in the order.
7. Any other cars you're tinkering with?
Nope
8. What's your favorite thing about your car, specifically? Which money do you feel was your best investment?
My Work wheels. For the "current" standard A.K.A hellaflush standard, the fitment is nothing compared to those crazy fitment wheels. But, there's something about them that just completes the look of my car. I was gonna sell them to get "better fitment" wheels, but my friends got mad at me becuz i told them i was gonna sell them. They said the wheels are perfect for my car.
9. Is there anybody you would like to credit or thank for helping you along the way?
Henry and Choi are the most important people for my accord. They helped me a lot. Also Thanks for Carlos (LilCharlie) for helping me to install the audio stuffs. Also thank you for the 6GA family. My girlfriend Niza for the understanding hahahaha...
