    iLIFT suspension actuators?

    Thanks for moving it, Red. Didn't want to start a new thread in case it's been discussed before. I agree with the cost factor being a turn off. Its a great idea though. I wouldn't opt for the automatic feature. Manual control is all I would want. The auto feature shuts off at 20-25mph, I...

    Flashing CEL, TCS Indicator, Misfire Codes

    OEM coil packs are usually overpriced. Majestic Honda for around 55-60 bucks (http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/auto/jsp/mws/prddisplay.jsp?inputstate=5&catcgry1=ACCORD&catcgry2=2002&catcgry3=4DR+EX+%28V6%29&catcgry4=KA4AT&catcgry5=IGNITION+COIL+-+SPARK+PLUG+%28V6%29). Aftermarket usually...

    Flashing CEL, TCS Indicator, Misfire Codes

    Thats not bad for a v6. I average 17-20 mostly city but my transmission is on its last legs, which in turn eats up gas. Just sort out the misfire and go from there.

    New Member rant

    - TRANSMISSION rebuild proof/receipt!!! - Pop the hood and look for any frame damage, low miles obviously. - Most paint will be peeling. The lighter colors like gold, silver and white seem to hold up the best. - Ball joints are known to fail above 150k miles or so. - Keep an eye out for rust...

    Flashing CEL, TCS Indicator, Misfire Codes

    Usually a flashing CEL is misfire. You would physically have to take the catalytic converter off and shine a flashlight to look at them and see if they are melted. Typically it takes prolonged driving with a misfire to do noticeable damage to the cats, so you should be fine. After the fix, if...

    Flashing CEL, TCS Indicator, Misfire Codes

    Random misfire, hopefully its not the ECU. If you drive on a misfire for too long then raw fuel is going to melt your cats causing larger $$$ problems. Check your cats if you can.

    Varnell's '99 J37 Stroker 6MT Coupe EX-L

    Re: Varnell's '99 J32 6MT Coupe EX-L Wow that's insane! Glad you are okay. Did you happen to search around for a bullet or damage to the interior. You know it went through the rear windshield but where did it end up?

    FS: 01 Accord V6 part out.....totaled

    I wish you were closer or I would take your transmission. Been searching for a donor car for the 6speed swap with no luck for over a year. At that point where I'm close to giving up on finding one and its down to what comes first.

    P1399 on cylinders 2-6: 02 EX V6

    clean your EGR, if it continues do a Valve adjustment. You could do a seafoam treatment to help clean the valves and see if that helps first. 1/3 bottle in gas, oil & through the intake manifold.

    What amp for stock speakers?

    TL;DR – That amp will work fine… Yes, that will work just fine. For the most part 5 channel amps are designed to run full systems with channels for Front, Rear & Sub. With RF you have three classes. PRIME, PUNCH & POWER. Basically you go from good ($), better($$), best($$$$!). There are...

    What amp for stock speakers?

    Should work no problem, I like this idea a lot. You can hard wire a dual USB port somewhere hidden and hide wires to the dash for your iPad and maybe the center console cubby for the connect so you can still access the button to pair devices. That way you can take them out of the car if you need...

    What amp for stock speakers?

    I hear this frequently and am still surprised. I've done countless systems through the years and all RF subs I've used have been perfect, including all mine and multiple other builds. Never once blew a RF sub! It all comes down to proper tuning and pairing proper specs from amp to sub. Those...

    What amp for stock speakers?

    No problem. Thanks for the Rep! Depending on what generation iPad you have, there are many adapters/converters to choose from. I would try and use the line out/dock connector for your audio source to bypass the built in amp in the iPad but you'll probably loose your charging capabilities...

    What amp for stock speakers?

    Warning: long post! I pretty much only use/recommend Rockford Fosgate in my systems. Stock speakers are pretty weak and will melt the voice coils in a short period of time with an amp hooked up. If you are going to run a 5 channel amp you would need 3 inputs for them (Front,Rear,Sub) so...

    Lowering springs

    +1 The HRs have been on my CG since 02. When the OEM struts failed we threw on some KYB struts, been well over 5 years now with the KYB's. Still no leaks and the ride is comfortable. Handling isn't coil over status but better than expected with lowering springs. No complaints here. I'll...

    Need help with CA Smog problems

    They recently updated the smog testing procedures in CA. "2000 model year and newer vehicles (except for vehicles 14,000 GVWR or greater) no longer require the tailpipe portion of the smog inspection." Quoted from here http://www.smogtips.com/new-smog-law-ab-2289.cfm
