    New exhaust set-up

    It'll sound marginally different. Different companies but basically the same thing. Thanks Red! There's about 18" of piping between the cat and resonator, then more piping. Hmmm, I would try replacing the long resonator with a cat and see how that works. If not, try some quiter mufflers.

    New exhaust set-up

    Thanks guys, it's always good to get some reassurance from fellow 6GA'ers. Much appreciated, the exact model the "Dynomax 24235". It's the same one the TL guys use for their "Stage 3" exhaust. Little drone during light acceleration, none during cruising, not even on the highway. Haha, we...

    New exhaust set-up

    Added a simple resonator to my old straight pipe set up and it's downright beautiful. Stock headers --> Stock Cat--> Dynamax Resonator --> 2.25" mandrel-bent piping (Mid & Rear mufflers deleted) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9Frc8RjFqfY

    Scary noise during hard acceleration

    Car is definitely not pulling to one side. I broke it all down early this morning brakes are fine. Suspension also looks ok. Found a bad motor mount when I got under the car though, can't believe I didn't notice it. It doesn't clunk the firewall when accelerating from a stand still like I'm used...

    Scary noise during hard acceleration

    Only directly while accelerating, it stops the moment I let off. It's a low-pitched scraping noise. And vibration yes, but is very minimal.

    Scary noise during hard acceleration

    Hey all. My '02 156k V6 is having a strange problem. I get a terrible, almost grinding sound during hard acceleration.. Only happens in 1st gear, and only in the higher RPM's, (I'd say 4k+). The sound appears to be coming from the front passenger area. Sounds like it could be something in the...

    High Mileage 6th Gens

    '02 EX-V6 151k. Still running strong on original engine & tranny. Most expensive job was the timing belt/water pump replacement. The paint on the other hand.. :henry:

    v6 vs i4

    IMHO. Having owned a V6 for 5 years. If your pursuit is going faster, then don't consider a V6 unless you are also considering a 6 speed swap. V6's sound a ton better though.

    CA smog with turbo!!!

    Eh.. Hurricanes do suck yes. Significant ones come far & few in between, though. I've lived in Orlando, Florida for 11 years & have only lost power for more than a few seconds ONE time due to a hurricane. Hurricane Charlie, 2002 or '03 if I'm not mistaken, granted it was for almost 2 weeks...

    6th gen non ABS

    A 6th gen is an odd choice for a track car. Who am I to judge though.

    Her name is BELLA ;)

    Speak for yourself, I want a 9th Gen.

    Just need some insight on lips and what not.

    Perfect lip IMO..... '02 Coupe front bumper with Sedan Wings West W-Type front lip. With OEM Coupe Skirts & Coupe Wings West Rear Lip. I doubt it, unless you are severely slammed. Our rear bumpers are stupid high.

    Need a paint-job. Need inspiration.

    Looks really good in low light, once it's in the sun it looks like the sky though. ugh. Indeed. How did you find that code? I do love that trim color though.

    suspension problems plz help.

    Now that I re-read his post. It could possibly be something else other than the UCA's. Noting that he said he is dropped on K-Sport springs. I don't think that is enough of a drop to have your UCA's hit the tower. I'm slammed on FF type 1's. Look at my signature, & my UCA's almost NEVER hit.

    Need a paint-job. Need inspiration.

    Beautiful paint indeed. I don't quite see my coupe pulling off that color though. Excuse the picture, but I couldn't find a good picture of a car with this color. This is the type of blue-gray I'm looking for.

    Need a paint-job. Need inspiration.

    So the paint on my NHBP coupe is horrendous, clear coat peeling on most horizontal surfaces, fade spots, swirl marks, the works. I want new paint, I don't want OEM Honda paint though. & I don't want something simple & direct. Nothing straight up black, or red, or blue. I saw a Golf TDI at...

    Rear Bumper Side markers...

    I don't recall anyone ever doing this, but seeing as how the front bumpers are interchangeable I don't see why not. 6th gen coupes have rear side markers, try to see if that rear bumper will fit your car.
