    Widest tire w/ spacers and rolled fenders ?

    It's so odd, this site is so into stretching skinny *** tires, never mind the op specifically asks about the widest 'tire'.

    Aftermarket fender?

    dito I replaced my fender with a junkyard one a few weeks ago. They had two options 100 bucks for a used stock fender or 50 for an aftermarket. I got the aftermarket and 100bucks painted it right across the street. Looks/fits as good as stock.

    Tenzo R Type M V.1 Color options

    Bronze because I never had the balls, and always went silver. At least you don't have chrome etching, I do and it would look like *** with bronze wheels.

    Electrical problem...?

    that has nothing to do with your audio equipment. It's not a starter problem either since you are rolling. The only time my gauges went crazy on me is when I broke my HO alternator. I would check there. Get a new Denso 80amp stock alt, they are pretty beefy for stock imo especially for 700w you...

    Sound Deadener?

    Dynamat extreme is proven to work, buy it online and in bulk and it's cheap too. With other brands you risk it falling down on you just due to gravity or the aluminum is too thin.

    Aem V2 Air Intake: Accord 98-02 4 Cyl

    This may come as a little weird but that blow off whistle sound was only on the f23, on the H22 I used the same V2 and it's just deeper and throatier, no whistle. Never dynod the f23, aem claims some 9hp, it is probably half of that but I hated the stock intake and I don't mind the engine being...

    preview of my fiberglass boxes I built

    not big on the SPL gig but nice work on the fiberglass, that's a lot of hard work. I now wrap my fg creations so I don't have to sand them forever.

    I think I blew my subwoofer?

    My midbass did the same thing. I took it in for repairs today, part of the VC came undone is my best guess. You probably need a recone, my midbass can't be reconed so I just bought another.

    Pix of tonights work...

    can you replace the stock diff with a limited slip one? I know people swap in the H22 tranny with the lsd but I want long gears.

    Drift is the man! You guys will figure it out. CG on the swap and keep working at it, it's totally worth it.

    H22 swap is DONE!!!

    I have my H22 Vtec engagement set at 4400rpm. I don't fall out no matter what gear I'm shifting into. That's also not unusually low or counterproductive, that's were my tunner found it makes the most power under the curve. 202whp @ 6800rpm 175.5lb/ft at 5200rpm wtq here. Congrats on the swap!

    Sure: reinforce the deck after cutting it to fit take the windshield out if you want to mount it from the top take tensioner bars out, replace with 5th gen Accord shocks Seal any opening to the cabin to make the trunk an enclosure, this includes drop down seats, around the spring mount, between...

    Brake light rattling...

    I applied expanding foam to the whole rear deck, it's the only way you get the sucker to be quiet.

    Widest tire w/ spacers and rolled fenders ?

    I also want something bigger than 225/40. I'm thinking if we reduce sidewall hight we can can squeeze in another size up. BF G. T/A come in 235/35/18, I'm really considering these ones but they are over $200 a pop and apparently very noisy. I am however confident that these are doable with some...

    Rims/tires

    I'm a big fan on OZ ultraleggeras. Get them in 17x8 with 225/45 Falken 452 or Azenis for more grip.

    Which front camber kit to get?

    I have both. First I had the max positive camber one, the extreme. Witha 2.5 drop all around I was able to get 0 degrees upfront or positive camber, so 0 is the minimum setting, so yes it's for extreme drops and saving tire. I wanted an auto x setup so I bought the less extreme ones. These...

    2000 Accord EX

    Intake and a drop are great starting mods. The stock intake gave me a lot of troubles in the desert, getting plugged all the time and who needs a 4x4 Honda?

    Pix of tonights work...

    Never got to turbo my F23, went H22 instead. I thought it would be cheaper... wrong! Or at least just as expensive, this hobby is a money pit. How is the tranny holding up? I want to continue using my F23 transmission if I turbo the H.

    aem underdrive pulley

    pulleys are one of the worst things to put on a car. The crank one often misses the damper, the underdriving part makes your accessories anemic, your alternator may not even charge at idle, they slip, make noise need I say more. I'm taking off the PS Undorthodox oem sized pulley out tomorrow. I...

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    Even with the screws all kosher the caster is off. It looks like I will have to take it to a collision repair specialist that has an alignment platform too. Two things that I can think of: frame is bent Upper adjustable arm for camber throws off caster.

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    that is one sweet picture with the wheel off the ground Drift! I was looking at the radius rods today, if my caster is not back to normal now I think I'm very screwed. To get positive caster the rod needs to be shortened, which as far as I can tell is a no go. By adding shims the caster can...

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    Thanks Simon that looks sexy! Those are some nice caster numbers, I've been looking at my negative one with sadness, nice to see it's possible. I had my mechanic drop in today, it turns out I ****ed up that whole spindle swap business. The lower control arm screw threads were shaved and the...

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    Well, the car wonders during acceleration no more. Something happened a few hours ago and the whole axle came undone under cornering and full throttle. The wheel came loose at nearly 45 miles an hour and jammed itself good in the wheel well. Fender, side skirt and I imagine quite a bit of the...

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    did you swap the spindles too? I was talking to Drift today, he only swapped the brakes themselves, I guess that's what most people do. Do you have an alignment sheet? The reason why I ask is that with F23s you probably won't notice it, I notice it a ton but only when Vtec kicks in on the H22...

    V6 Brakes swap: Caster out of spec. Isolated case?

    Sure, but with the brakes come the V6 spindles too, maybe they are cast differently. If I see some stock speck caster degrees after someone has done the swap and alignment then I'll troubleshoot something else.
