    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Having a beater that's fun to whip around in almost made me not want to do the swap. I don't blame you for taking your time. If I had the money I'd have considered J35A4/6-speed swapping the Accord and keeping the CL but found the TL-S instead.

    Sketch o5's 2017 Toyota 86 6MT

    A stock body FRS looks so good, you don't need for a kit for it like you might for a CG. These are aging very nicely.....shit it's been a decade already. It's kinda sad to see everyone chopping these up to go widebody. What happened to your fender?:superhack:

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Any idea what axles you're going to swap out to? I was considering Insane (mixed reviews) or Raxles, but their quote came out to be too much since they wouldn't accept my cores. I ended up buying brand new OEM axles (that hurt the wallet).

    Boshi's SSM 2001 Accord Sedan LX

    I love the TEs. 16s with the meaty tire and with a nice drop completely transforms these cars. I'd run a 5-10mm spacer to get the wheels flush but damn does it look fresh. I still have to do the rear suspension refresh for my Accord. I got tired of wrenching on the car for almsot 3 months doing...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    I'll have to look into this for my TL-S for sure! I was looking at the USA Spec BT45-ACU but can't bring myself to shell out $230 for it yet when my aux cord works just fine.

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Yeah sorry meant to clarify dash harness. Some people bring the dash harness with the dash swap so they're able to get some extra features. For street driving ABS is always nice to have even though I have the RL BBK upgrade. Does your CLS6 not have ABS? Mine saved my a** when I was dailying the...

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Lol I have the same dash issue, all of the vents are popping out of the dash since it's warped. One thing I heard is that if you do the dash swap, you can somehow get the side mirror to tilt down when putting the Accord into reverse like how it is in the CL. I do miss that feature, but that's...

    Unfortunately, I dont have the stock headunit. The CL came with a single din aftermarket radio :emotions122:. I remember I used to rock a cassette wired adapter in the Accord if your phone still has a headphone jack?

    This guy actually got his J37 topcover working on his Acura CL by using the actuator wiring. Something worth checking out if you're interested.

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Thanks Richard, if i count the time I've had the Cl donor car, it's been about 3 years to complete the swap haha. The subframe on my CL is mint...considering it's been covered in engine oil since I had a leaky j32 lolol, so I'm selling the shell to a buddy for $700. If you want anything off of...

    Blood, sweat, tears, and a LOT of cussing . Still have a long wishlist of things I want to do to the car. Might have to keep updating this thread

    L.E.D. Headlights

    Just saw that you're Canadian... I think the Canadian spec accords had the DRL. LEDs should still work but you might have to run a different harness that supports them. I know for my 08 TL-S that comes with halogen DRLs you need to purchase a LED DRL Decoder module in order to run LED lights...

    Boshi's SSM 2001 Accord Sedan LX

    Whip looks cleannn. Can't wait to see where you go with it! It's nice to see Accords being built and if going by your last build.... this'll be built nicely.

    DesiKid's 01 Accord Sedan EX-L

    Long but overdue update. Car is officially J32A2 and 6spd swapped from my CL-S donor car. Took me about 2.5 months to complete the swap from pulling the motor out of the CL, refreshing it, pulling Accord motor, and swapping in the new drivetrain. I was able to get the IMRC fully functional as...

    L.E.D. Headlights

    A high lumen output means you'll have a brighter headlight. I'm not sure if it's the same with LEDs but I know that for HIDs....the bluer the light went, the lower the output was. An example of this would be a 5k HID bulb having more output over a 8k bulb. Ultimately the high beams in these...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Yeah the Manifold Runner control. The J37 manifold does have butterflies but its a diff setup from the J32. The J32 IMRC uses a motor with a cable that opens and shuts the valve whereas the J37 IMRC has a motor that runs a signal from the ECU to open it and a separate signal to close. Most...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Yep the DBW is something I'm not the biggest fan of. The throttle automatically adjusts based on how you drive and if you're doing city driving it adjusts accordingly and gets sluggish. There's a quick throttle relearn I do weekly now that peps the car back up. I think I'll do a pedal commander...

    Richard's '03 CL-S 6MT

    Great to see you still posting on here Richard! I just bought a 08 Acura TL Type S 6spd as a new daily and tbh... the CL feels more fun even though the TL was more power lol. I just purchased the parts to refresh my J32 for the swap. Hopefully if everything goes well, the motor pops out of my...

    J32A2 + 6MT swap in my '01 F23/H23 5MT chassis

    Awesome work man! Followed the build early on but kind of fell off the site for a bit. Glad to see you still have the Accord up and running. Seeing a lot of Jswap guys go turbo now so hopefull we'll see the build updated here. You ever miss the blower? Mine's still in my basement 5 years from...

    Glad to see you're progressing with the project! Ever since I painted the Accord I dont want to drive it anymore lololol even though it's supposed to be my daily. Gonna push my beater CL thru the winter and pull the motor in the spring. Hoping to save money for parts to throw at it once the...

    Yeah I love it haha. I had the mufflers dropped a bit so they don't burn the lip, that's what happened to my last rear lip with the magnaflows. Sent from my VS996 using Tapatalk
