    Project: A Quiet Accord (AFAccord's DIY Acoustic Treatment)

    While I'm excited to get my new chassis up and running again, I find my attempts to quiet down the car and improve my listening experience snowballing out of control. If you've followed any of my other build threads, you know this is par for the course. Here is my story... As I began...

    AFAccord's Body Restoration Thread

    As most of you know, I completed my boost build back and December, just days before I left the country. The body and paint on the car was in pretty bad shape, but I only had time to focus on one thing before I left. My dad has been helping me out by hiring a friend to restore the body to new...

    Photo Request: Intercooler Piping

    I haven't seen many clear photos showing how everyone chooses to route their piping and mount the FMIC. I'm looking for photos of front mount intercoolers and charge pipe setups, as well as reviews pros/cons of your particular setup (ie. clearance issues with piping and bumper cover) to make...

    Selling my Garrett turbo. I just bought this brand new from Greg at Go-Autoworks; it's only been out of the box once for this photo. Hybrid T3/T4 .63 a/r 57 trim. I've decided to go with a different turbo better suited to my goals, and returning this one would cost me a 25% restocking fee...

    Picking My Color

    I've been checking all kinds of car colors lately, looking for the perfect one for the Accord. I don't really want a super dark gun-metal, but I'm not ruling out a darker shade of silver than SSM. What keeps catching my eye is a silver with a very slight shade of bronze, similar to Honda's...

    Chrome trim over window removal

    This has been touched on before in reference to blacking out the chrome trim, but I really need to know how to completely remove the chrome trim surrounding the windows on a coupe. The front pieces seem simple enough, but how do you remove the trim along the bottom and around the quarter window?

    Hello all! This is my first true attempt at a home theater other than the typical HTIB. Honestly, it's geared more towards a 2.1 style 'music theater' than a movie theater, though I do like my eye-candy. :) So here's the equipment list: Sharp Aquos 60" LED TV Pioneer VSX-1021-K Receiver...

    This is not a completed project yet, but the hard work is done, so I decided I would share. This is not a DIY Guide (yet), just a series of progression photos from today. I had some new black-housing lamps with clear strips that I bought to redo my last retro with these projectors, since I...

    More courteous alternative to horn honk?

    Looking for a setup similar to what Toyota has with their quiet 'chirp' when locking and unlocking the doors. I know wiring will have to be redone to accomplish this. Anyone seen it done before?

    Well, maybe not forever, but for a long time nonetheless. I haven't been to this site in weeks it seems, if not longer because I've been busy packing up my house, making appointments, and getting my legal matters straight for an upcoming deployment. I will be leaving in about a week...

    Why I Turn off my Phone when on a Date...

    Cause I know some joker is going to text me something stupid, and take my attention away from where it needs to be (with the girl). My buddies and I went to Myrtle Beach yesterday, where we proceeded to get stupid drunk. We started drinking around 3pm. I stopped at 6pm to prepare for a date...

    Went out shooting in town with my wife this evening, and ended up shooting her. (No pun intended) Here's one from the set... 50mm, f/2.8, ISO 200, 1/400sec I processed this on an uncalibrated monitor that tends to result in a warm and sometimes greenish cast. Let me know what you think...
