    Varnell's 91 240sx

    The vision: So, it's going on fourteen months since I've had an engine in my Accord and I couldn't resist the itch any longer. Picked up this bad boy tonight for $2900. 170,000 miles, only bondo is on hatch for a windshield wiper delete and a section near the gas door. I'll most likely be...

    Post-It Notes instead of LEDs

    I wouldn't do it. Not sure if they'd catch fire and I wouldn't want to remove and reset the needles, but here's this for anyone on a tight budget.

    WTB: Advan Model 5 18x10 +19

    18x10 +19 5x114.3 Been wanting these for a while now. Preferably silver, but won't turn down a set without bends or cracks. I figure it wouldn't hurt to ask you guys to keep an eye out for me. One step closer to making my budget NSX. Pictures for your time:

    Super "Blood" Moon Lunar Eclipse

    For those of you in the middle and western parts of the States right now. This won't happen again until 2033. Unfortunately the south east is covered in a band of rain. I know you guys have some awesome cameras and I'd love to see some uploads. It's currently in the red phase as I'm typing...

    Spark from fuse box, car won't start.

    Okay, so when I was putting in my strut bars I accidentally left the fuse box under the strut bars. I tried to move the box so I could bolt the fuse box to the strut bar but accidentally touched one of the wires that connects to the 100A Battery fuse. I saw a spark and assumed the worst. I...

    [Video]: Cali Accord Meet 2015

    Great looking Accords in this video. Saw a few 6GA's that I haven't seen on this site; not sure if they're OG's or solely on V6P. Apparently the guy that covered the event rolled up in a Civic and didn't catch a break from the Accord crowd. Regardless, he has my thanks for putting up with it...

    VW Beetle Spoiler: Will it fit?

    Will it fit? It's not pretty, but yes... yes it fits.

    Glad I Don't Live In Cali

    kMjlle7Gm58 As far as stretching tires, there's obviously a limit. However, watch the torment professional drifters put them through. It's far more than an average commute will inflict on them. Reading through comments from the video I learned a few things about the decibel test. For...

    Honda's Secret Museum

    Most of these cars are stock and I didn't see any 6GA's, but still a great tour for anyone that appreciates Honda's heritage. In short, if you're on this site, you'll enjoy this video. eWac0tBBum0

    Tag taken and car towed

    I was pulled over today after a cop ran my tag. Apparently it has been suspended and my car is not insured. I was stunned since I purchased the car within 24 hours of my sedan being totaled and I immediately insured it. I went to check my phone. No signal. I couldn't check my online policy...

    [Updated 12/28] J32 Swap [Wiring]

    So I originally looked at hmotorsonline and they had one for sale for $3600. It included the motor, original type s transmission, mounts, sensors, ecu. I needed to make sure I had school paid for first, and they ended up selling it a few weeks ago to some guy in Mexico. I recently found...

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

    Picked this car up for $2,000 on Halloween 2014. It definitely needed some work but I was happy to pick up a project car. The strut towers had already been cut and the exhaust sounded surprisingly good with ebay mufflers. The inspiration: Completed Projects: -J32A2 Engine (2003 Acura...

    99 V6 Issues

    Alright, so I picked up this project car. I knew from the start it would need work, but I wanted something that I'd have to put my time into. I definitely got what I asked for. I knowingly picked up the car with a cracked oil pan. I dogged the car on the way home and it was a blast to drive...

    Black Friday 2014

    Post up any good deals you've seen. My plan was to build a PC this year, but after buying a 99 coupe and preparing it for a J32 swap...that's been put on hold. Newegg normally has some good Black Friday PC deals. Anyone know of a site that does deals on car parts? I wouldn't mind picking up...

    Abused 6th Gen

    I looked up at the tv and saw this new Farmer's Insurance commercial and it made me cringe. Mostly because my now totaled sedan was the exact same color. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=09yBMBzp1wI

    Insurance, totaled car, etc

    Alright, so I've never totaled a car until now and I'm not quite sure the best way to do this. I had an adjuster come out and tell me it would be totaled and I'd get $2,900. That's pretty generous considering the KBB for a 1998 Sedan i4 LX in excellent condition is $2,250. The insurance...

    Varnell's '02 Coupe EX 5spd 56k

    My 1998 Sedan LX was totaled on May 2nd, 2014. That night I picked this baby up for $2,400 cash. As far as I can tell, everything is stock with the exception of the muffler that has been welded on. Surprisingly, they left on the resonator and it doesn't sound half bad. I'll be transferring...

    6th gen in a movie

    Not really sure where to put this thread. Anyway, my girlfriend is watching Guilt Trip with Seth Rogan on Netflix right now. When I happened to glance over, I saw a lowered 6th gen with black aftermarket wheels. Just wondering if you guys know the owner. The scene is right at five minutes...

    Strange sound high gear/low rpms

    I've found multiple threads with the same topic on the internet ranging from subarus to mazdas to acuras. None came to a conclusion, though. Likewise the two related YouTube videos yielded no answers. To save some trouble, I know you're not supposed to drive in fifth gear while doing 20mph...

    Most you have fit inside your Accord?

    I originally thought fitting two passenger side doors in my car was the limit, but unboxing my new 58" flat screen straight from best buy took some effort and grace. The angle didn't work standing on the seat, so I had to sit it on the floor and pad the bottom with shirts. It literally touched...

    Ebay Posting: Wings West Lip Kit $500

    Not sure where I should post this. I found this yesterday and I know you guys like them. It says they only have one of two left. I bought the other. Originally $593. I offered $412. They counter-offered $563. I counter-offered $500 and they accepted. Not bad with free shipping from...

    Gauge Cluster Acting Up

    Alright, so I put in a euro gauge cover. I didn't disconnect the battery and while screwing the cluster back in I saw the temp gauge needle jump. It no longer works. Honestly, I was fine with that, but my spedometer needle just dropped dead while driving. It jumps on occasion now. I lost...

    Weight Reduction Thread

    I searched 'weight reduction' and 'reduce weight' and didn't come up with much. I have some pretty hefty subs, and I'm about to put a hundred pounds of Dynamat into my ride. I'm trying to offset this weight. I wanted to make this thread to compile the parts that can be removed to make a...
