    nitsua98's 1998 Accord Sedan LX (56k)

    Alright, time for another quick update...I painted my wheels bronze. I was planning on painting them white but couldn't find any white wheel paint, and I liked the idea of having shiny wheels for once. So, updated pictures are now up! I am not sure how much longer this car will be mine...

    power door locks

    My drivers side front lock has been doing this same thing for a few months now...I just move the lock/unlock knob on the door handle up and down really fast a few times and the power lock will work for a week or so, until I have to wiggle the knob again. I am not going to bother fixing it until...

    My car had black sides...I painted them! I couldn't stand the black plastic. Can't you tell the color is off a little? I couldn't find the exact color to match...

    The steering wheel cover is from autozone, but I have seen it at other parts stores. I just put the valve cover back on, finally got the pcv valve grommet in. I am going to wait a little before I start my car, I think that is what you are supposed to do with the rtv silicone? Definately looks...

    nitsua98's 1998 Accord Sedan LX (56k)

    Well, I have finally found something that drives me crazy...The valve cover gasket!!! It was pretty much at one with the cover, I had to scrape over half of it out. I don't think it had ever been replaced and it came off in tiny pieces. After that was over with, I realized that the gasket...

    So...I guess I'm a new guy

    Hey guys, I'm new! I didn't see this section until after I started my ride thread, so go check that out to see my car. It is a 98 I4 sedan (auto). Well...I got my accord in 06 as my first car. I actually worked and saved my money, and figured I wanted a reliable car that I wouldn't have to...

    My budget is whatever I feel like putting into this car...which happens to be not much. I probably won't get plain springs because there is no adjustability. If I could find good coilovers for around 1k, I might go ahead and get them...but I want control over height. As for ride comfort, I...

    nitsua98's 1998 Accord Sedan LX (56k)

    Yeah, I figured I am getting the red/clears soon, so why not? I might actually just tint over the tops too, but I think it would stand out too much. I bet I will be pulled over within a week. Unless I am in direct sunlight, they look really dark. When I have my lights on, the red in the back...

    Well...I tinted my tails today. It turned out pretty good, but I think they might be a little too dark. I masked off the turn signal and reverse spot and tinted the rest of the light. It ended up being about 4 coats, but they were very light coats. Here are some pictures, and I will update...

    You know, I always thought it looked higher after I had it up to do something...I figured it was just me...I'll get some new pics later. Im thinkin about ordering some of those civic fogs soon.

    nitsua98's 1998 Accord Sedan LX (56k)

    Ok guys-I cleaned up my engine bay a little and got rid of the ugly blue paint. I had a little bit of black let over and did my header heat shield while I was at it...I'm going to paint the valve cover black but I don't know what color to do the letters? Anyways, I put my wheels back on and...

    I'm actually in Seminole, but I work in St. Pete and it's close enough. But...the skyway is about 40-50 mins. away. No way am I going to some racing meet! About the suspension-If it is possible to be done by myself, I should have no problem. I just thought you needed a spring compressor and...

    So, are the blue wire covers also tacky? If I take off the painted parts, I think I am going to take off the wire covers too...but I need to get black ones then because they are covering my amp, fog lights, and green cathode wires that run through my hood. Thanks for the comments, I am already...

    Alright, thanks for the comments and I'll def. look up a DIY suspension thread...What about alignment and all that? As you can tell, I know next to nothing about suspension other than the parts that make it up. About the engine stuff-I was a little younger, stupid and careless and thought it...

    Ok well removing 10 year old pin stripes is not the easiest thing I have done...I tried using a blowdrier but it took too long. After chipping my fingernails trying to just scrape it off, I sharpened a plastic spoon and used it to scrape the stripes off. This is much faster and the plastic...

    nitsua98's 1998 Accord Sedan LX (56k)

    Yeah, I painted the stuff a while ago and have kind of regretted it ever since. I still want to paint my valve cover...but who knows. I didn't know about the civic fog lights, are they a direct fit? The only reason I don't like mine is because they are just kinda screwed up there... I will...

    (EDIT) I used the format without adding "PERFORMANCE, SUSPENSION, ETC..." and then listing...I made it all one paragraph. I figured since most other threads didn't actually list "PERFORMANCE, ETC..", that it was acceptable to combine them into a paragraph. I guess I was wrong! Anyways, I have...
