    Blah... need help desperately! Crappy situation/H22 swap related

    The neighbor of mine, who has been a mechanic for many years, did that already. It's broken.

    Blah... need help desperately! Crappy situation/H22 swap related

    Ya, I could always just find another F23, but that wouldn't be as fun :D But it looks like thats what I'll be doing if fixing the current motor is way too expensive or out of the question.

    Ugh, thats rough. Thanks for the help fellas. Now I have to figure out what I should go do with this hunk of junk. Sorry, I used to love my Accord, but it's just given me so much trouble (for keeping up with maintenance and such, really frustrating!!).

    Oh no, not being rude at all. I believe you. I just wonder how much the repair bill is going to be. Hah I was just trying to turn a large repair bill into a possible plus, getting at least the H22 motor I've always wanted.

    Yes, I would be sticking a H22 with a F23 auto tranny. Not dead set on the idea, but I didn't see any threads on it (searched before), so I decided to see if anyone had any info. on it themselves. Also like I said, I'd be interested to know what a straight repair for my F23 would cost with the...

    Blah... need help desperately! Crappy situation/H22 swap related

    I see... blah, oh well. I mean I definitely wouldn't be looking for crazy performance out of this craptastic automatic transmission to begin with, but if it is too much of a hassle then I won't waste the time nor the money. Just frustrating to be dumping so much money into the car. I just...

    Blah... need help desperately! Crappy situation/H22 swap related

    My car shut off going 40 mph last week, and threw a CEL (P1382 - Cylinder Position Sensor no signal). I thought it was the cam sensor so I replaced the distributor and that didn't work. I know it could be the crank sensor, but from what mechanics (friends of the family) have told us, the timing...

    -=[ Exhaust Manifold / Header ]=-

    Megan Racing is utter crap. I had the welds on their header fail on me. Just popped right off the flange that bolts the header to the block. Also the flex pipe started leaking on me. On the up side though, once it was finally fixed (sent a new one after a lot of b1tching) the header plus the...

    RedlineAccord's 2001 Accord coupe EX w/ club member's turbo S2000 (56k)

    I have the 4 cylinder. I'd have to take a pic of it, but I dont know what it is that sits in back of the headlight. I guess I've had bad luck with stuff. I got a bad hood from Extreme Dimensions (and I was at school, so instead of sending it back my bodyshop guy just did a LOT of work on it...

    RedlineAccord's 2001 Accord coupe EX w/ club member's turbo S2000 (56k)

    Oh, and for the record, the TYC projector headlights I got were crap. I was surprised. I thought TYC was really good for stuff like that. They fog up like crazy and the light output is horrrible. Its also impossible to aim and readjust the left one cause of something directly behind the...

    RedlineAccord's 2001 Accord coupe EX w/ club member's turbo S2000 (56k)

    Ya I live in central jersey, Freehold to be exact (right next to Englishtown raceway, which is awesome). I know I have to ditch my license plate but the cops around here are a pain. When I get my front/rear bumpers repainted soo I'll probably have them cover up the holes for the license plate. I...

    RedlineAccord's 2001 Accord coupe EX w/ club member's turbo S2000 (56k)

    Did a photoshoot with my friend and fellow club member who just turbocharged his Honda S2000. I think hes at 360 rwhp right now and next weekend he'll have his headgasket installed and upping boost to around 18 psi which will put him somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 hp and 300 torque. He has...

    Anyone dynoed their stock accord?

    My accord is the ULEV edition. I think one of the only difference is probably going to be a larger catalytic converter to lower your emissions. Hence why I probably saw decent gains going from the larger ULEV cat to the straight through test pipe. I/H/E will probably not get you 150 whp/tq. As I...

    Anyone dynoed their stock accord?

    HAH unfortunately I added a 15" subwoofer months ago for shows and SPL competitions (car audio competitions) cause I was big into that then and fabricating my own boxes and such so I don't feel jack performance-wise. I'm really really tempted to put together a turbo kit for this summer. The...
