    Square Wheels G6 17x9 +15 fitment

    I was thinking of getting a set of these and was wondering if I'll need to extend my wheel studs with a +15 offset or add spacers. Has anyone seen these wheels on a 98 -02 coupe?

    My Drivers Door Will Not Unlock!

    Resurrecting this thread because I just dealt with this issue a couple of days ago and didn't want to start a new one. My driver door wouldn't open, but the lock moved up and down. The latch assembly broke. First, I was able to get my driver's door open without causing major damage. I broke a...

    Brake suggestions

    I want to do a V6 brake swap on my 99 lx coupe with rear drums. I've read other posts about how it's really not worth it because of the cost and availability of parts at pick-a-part centers. I was looking into getting the Powerslot big brake kit for the front and just replacing the rear shoes...

    Head Gasket or thermostat?

    I just wanted to update on what happened to my engine. Apparently when you have oil going into the radiator and reservoir your engine is in bad shape. I ended up having a cracked head :bash: and I needed a new engine. Well I ended up with getting a low mileage F23A4, new clutch, axles, parts...

    car shudder

    My accord was doing the same. Found out the map sensor was bad and the a/f ratio was way off. The car was running rich and it was choking the engine. Good luck.

    Head Gasket or thermostat?

    Well the good news is that my father-in-law works for Honda parts and can get the parts at cost. The bad news is that I have to pay, but I love my ride too much not to. I'm going to have the engine rebuilt, so it can run another 200K. Thanks for the replies.

    Head Gasket or thermostat?

    Thanks HondaLuver83 for the heads up :thumbsup: Any idea what it would cost to have it done at a shop? I'll probably end up towing it to Top Tune (NASOHC's shop) in Orange.

    Head Gasket or thermostat?

    I noticed a pool of brown gunk on my garage floor this morning. My wife has been driving my accord (I know) to work. The car can be on fire and she probably wouldn't notice and keep driving. Anyhow, I popped the hood and noticed the coolant reservoir was overflowing with the same gunk. My...

    Replaced my lock actuator - still doesn't work!?

    AK, After reconnecting everything were you trying to work the switch with the door open? Honda usually requires that you hold the inner door handle out while using the switch. It's to keep you from accidentally locking yourself out. Also, what year is your accord? I have a 99 and I did not...

    Strangest start-up

    I have been noticing that sometimes it would take a couple of cranks of the key to get the car started, so I was thinking my starter was starting to die. Well the other day it wouldn't start and I did a recrank and then all of a sudden the engine starting making a high whining sound (belts) and...

    Gripe about body shops

    So here's my list of wonderful goodies that several body shops have done to my rides. 1. After welding my accord trunk they forgot to cover the rear window and I had rough spots on the glass. 2. They left the windows down and my interior was covered in dust. 3. I had bubbles in the paint...

    Gripe about body shops

    Thanks Mikeymike, I'm glad to see there's someone out there in body shop land that believes in good work. Too bad you're in NY.

    Bypass safety feature

    Just get a toggle switch and ground one side to metal and the other goes to the safety switch wire. When you flip the switch it tricks the Navi into thinking your parking brake is on and will let you watch movies. Hope this helps. Oh and by the way if your Navi has an internal gyro that...

    Filipino Roll-Call!

    Pac-Man put on a clinic last night. Diaz never had a chance. Diaz' after fight interview was hilarious too. I think he was just happy getting his 800k.

    Gripe about body shops

    Why do most body shops do a crappy job putting your car back together? Either they forget parts, half-a$$ the job and use random screws, or they can't color match the paint so now you have a two-tone. Oh and you might as well add two more weeks to whatever they quote you because I've never...

    Fiberglass sub Enclosure

    My buddy fiberglassed a 15" into his wheel well. That mutha hit hard!! I'd also port your back deck because it will bring the bass into your cabin and reduce the amount of trunk rattle.
