    Window motor

    Not quite sure about the window motor but I've replaced the lock actuator before and it helps to use a phone camera to see where screws are if they're behind the inner panel. Also if you have to take the window rail out they're kind of a pain. Just wiggle it up and down until it comes out...

    common oil leak sources?

    I know my rear main is leaking and I go through about a quart a month instead of taking it in to have it replaced. Probably drive 500+ miles a month, but it leaks at a pretty constant rate driving or not.

    Enne's 1989 Honda Prelude Si 2.0 4WS

    So clean, hope Selene hasn't been too neglected with the Prelude being your new baby. Haven't seen pics of the Accord or the Camaro in a little while. We need a group picture of all three together haha

    The mini nsx idea sounds freakishly awesome. Just gotta promise me you'd use a coupe so you've even got the nsx styled tail lights haha. Paddle shifters that are actually efficient sound like a pain and a lot of trial and error but it would be sweet to see in a CG

    Boogie's 98 Sedan LX (56k)

    Can always respect a clean stock set up, I just can't leave a car stock though haha. Can't wait to see the 5 lug swap and new rims

    Ah I've got an auto as well, about 165k miles and the transmission slips and revs high between 2nd and 3rd. Been driving it like this since it fell into my hands about a year and a half ago and the transmission hasn't ate it yet. I just try to let off the gas a little before it shifts when the...

    Gas smell

    Some exaggeration lol and definitely not as bad as the civics with d series engines but not the greatest sound imo. Maybe it's just the 4 bangers, not sure about the v6 models

    Enne's 1989 Honda Prelude Si 2.0 4WS

    Ughhh gotta wait till August... I'm excited. It's always fun watching car reviews in general but it will be way cooler to see one on a car that we've all seen cleaned up from the time you got it.

    Dang that's a good opportunity, I've always liked integras and the potential they have. As much as I love the CG I'd be considering this trade too. Looks like it comes with a couple of goodies too from that picture. Would be sad to see Frankenstein go though

    Gas smell

    What's not to love about the raspy horrible deafening straight piped Accord sound and making your neighbors hate you for the +1 horsepower in the old 4cyl? lol

    How to change accessory belt (without power steering)

    Step four though haha, quality write up

    Just Bought

    Welcome to the site! Transmissions definitely aren't the greatest with this generation of Accord (especially the autos) but the motor is pretty bulletproof for the most part if you're running it stock or with some minor bolt ons. It's usually difficult to find such a good database for an older...

    repaint or leave it?

    Fair enough^^ its possible to do it for less than a full paint job if you've got the time for it though, just putting it out there. Really depends on how bad your paint is and what color it is (sorry I don't remember what color Lucky is). Even without the wetsanding it could help with the...

    Haha I didn't even notice the rear wheels until RedRyder mentioned it, such an odd concept to me but it sounds useful

    Jeez you're a wiring genius, I'd be so confused with that many different ones to account for

    repaint or leave it?

    Can always try buffing, polishing, and sealing. Depending on the color it could help get some scratches/swirls out and bring some life back into the paint

    Enne's 1989 Honda Prelude Si 2.0 4WS

    Dang Regular Car Reviews? That's pretty sweet, I want to see that. It's good to see such a cool car being cleaned up so nicely. I always see a similar prelude si at work and it sticks out for how good looking of a car it is considering it's age. The pop ups never get old either

    An update on my early 20s, mid 20s, late 20s...

    I have a lot of respect for what you're doing, it's pretty inspiring to see someone work from the ground up like you've done. Glad it's working out well for you and you enjoy what you're doing.

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Shoot didn't even realize how many miles were on it sheesh, yeah on second thought rebuild might be the way to go haha

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Yeah the auto already eats it with a stock engine, trying to use it with more power probably won't help. New internals wouldn't hurt either but you might be able to get away without a full rebuild idk. Anyway glad the car is looking all clean again, that wrap is sweet.

    Door lock assembly

    Sure thing, it's definitely a pain. The door lock actuators screws are in such an annoying spot too, they definitely weren't planning on anyone popping the coupe doors open in a garage when they designed them.

    Oh gotcha, I'm gonna say it's safe to assume it's the same intake manifold then

    Valve cover breather filter

    Sorry if I'm not reading this carefully enough but it's just a swap right? Not a rebuilt engine? Also I believe the only variations of the f23 you're gonna get are the f23a1 and f23a4 (ulev) unless you got an f23a5 out of a dx (I've never seen someone with one of these) or an f23a7 out of a...

    Door lock assembly

    Figured I'd revisit this since I finally got some time to work on the door. There was a metal clip holding the lock cylinder in place but it was hidden by a metal piece. Had to wedge a screwdriver to lift the metal piece and then you can release the lock cylinder by pulling out the little clip...

    Never a bad idea to clean up the egr to see if that helps you out
