    Sorry to bump an old thread like this, but if mods could please lock this thread. Accord is long gone along with all these parts.

    6GA Member's Before and Afters

    Those 527s are definitely my favorite wheels. Had some on my coupe, and will be putting some on my new project as well.

    Out with the old, in with the... Older.

    Would be nice to have it looking like that one day. I'm trying to get my progress together, but all I've really gotten done so far is a tune-up and a bit of preventative maintenance. Got lucky last week as well, sprung a leak from the heater hose and almost got stranded cuz I didn't want to...

    turboing a high milage car?

    I did a lot of searching about this when I had my accord too. To be honest, I wouldn't trust the auto tranny to hold even the slightest amount of boost. And if your going to do a full 5-speed swap with turbo build, you are better off just going for a full out H22 conversion. Unless you do the...

    Out with the old, in with the... Older.

    Those are the only plans so far. Coils (which are ungodly expensive for the FC), better lookin wheels, and Idk what DTSS is. Will look it up right now though. Also need a roll bar though. I really want an extreme dimensions kit for it, but I don't wanna worry about having to paint it. I did...

    Lol yeah I know, I know. From one problematic car to the next. Although it is going to take some getting used to, and A LOT of extra maintenance, but I do know that the previous owner has kept extensive care of the car. It runs great, and loves to freeking rev! Seems like the RPMs just never...

    Out with the old, in with the... Older.

    Been a little bit since I've posted on the forum. Reason being, I've sold the CG3 and never need help with problems anymore. Seems like all I ever did was ask questions about problems I was having. Got less then I would've liked for it, but if I was looking for a return on it I wouldn't have...

    Looks fresh man. Would love to re-finish my stocks and fit them with some spacers as spares.

    What will go first?

    I've been waiting, researching, and saving for 2 years now and I still don't have my h22 swap. And as said previously, it would take an extreme act of negligence to blow your motor, beating on it is just gonna make it run worse and piss you off even more. Save YOUR money, do some research, buy...

    Plasticoat Paint from dipyourcar.com

    There is a whole crew devoted to this here in Houston. They use the dipyourcar.com stuff and they have a few cars that are really nice actually. (Bright Orange WRX wagon, and a light blue Cobalt SS) couple of my buddies have plasti-dipped cars as well. Would I do it to my car? No. Does it work...

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Yeah it seems like 640 would be a normal rpm to drop to for an auto but I know that knocking is not normal. Ill check the map next time I drive it. Which PID is it to check the MAP?

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Drove around during my break today. Not much to report. Everything seems normal. Checked throttle position, at idle its 9.8%, raises gradually, drops as soon as I release the pedal. Fuel pressure is fine. Nothing strange to report really. Found out the when the idle drops it is only dropping to...

    Problem Installing coilovers need help ASAP

    Whats up with that right rear bolt giving everyone problems. When I did my springs I hit the **** out of it with a high torque air impact and the bolt just snapped. Still had to torch half of it out of the shock.

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Alright, any specific PIDs you would recommend on my dash? Also yeah that WHP test is pretty off. I highly doubt I'm getting 96.1 to the wheels on a freshly rebuilt motor with only a minor issue like this and no CEL. Nice to know how slow my 0-60 time is though. Need to find me a quiet stretch...

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Trying really hard to make sense of this app. Every time I run tests they are named stuff like $$&24683&* then it says test complete. Doesn't give me anything but the gibberish title and test complete next to it for all the sensor tests. Everything shows green though.

    Engine rebuild?

    First of all if nothing is wrong with the car now, then I'd save your money. Don't fix what ain't broke. Also for the V6 your thinking of the 6-speed swap I'm assuming, not 5-speed. As far as pros and cons, I have a newly rebuilt motor with around 5-6k miles on it since the rebuild, and I can...

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Connector for my torque app got here today. Set up my car's profile information. Gonna gather as much of this information as I can tomorrow. Making it my goal tonight to learn how to use all this stuff. Also gonna log my 0-60 time and 1/4 mile time just for s**ts and giggles.

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Got me a galaxy S3 a couple days ago with my upgrade. Torque app is installed, OBD connector should be here in a few days. Can provide better information then.

    idles too low with A/C ON > how do i raise idle?

    Should blow just as cold as any car. I would get the freon level checked and fill that up first. One of the cheaper first steps you could look too.

    idles too low with A/C ON > how do i raise idle?

    Is the A/C blowing cold in the car even if its hot outside and the engine has been running? I know my car struggles a bit when I turn the A/C, and my car needs freon. I know it needs freon cuz it won't blow cold if its too hot outside. Which sucks...

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    I love this forum man. You guys are the best. I'm so glad to be learning all this stuff about my car. I wish some of you gurus lived in my area. Only thing my friends know stuff about are 240's, but everyone knows about 240's...

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Huh, that Autel scanner is only like $65. Might just ride this out til next paycheck and buy that scanner as an early Christmas gift for myself, along with the other shopping I'll be doing. You've been awesome man. Wish I could repay you in some way. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it.

    New XXR thoughts?

    Not diggin' the color options. As far as how they look, they wouldn't be my first choice, but they certainly aren't ugly.

    Very strange fuel related problem.

    Haven't cleaned the MAP sensor. Not sure what TP stands for (Toilet Paper :lawl:). Pretty sure its short for throttle position sensor, but just an assumption. and no I have not cleaned that either. On a high note, since the seafoam the car hasn't done any knocking, but the idle is still lower...
