Hello from Germany!

Hey everybody,

I'm Bruno and this is my Coupe in Nighthawk black, full trim which I've owned for 3 years now.
I have been trying to join this site for a long time, but it was blocked here for some reason.

My uncle used to own this same car from 2001 in the same trim, but sold it long time ago.
Since then, I wanted to get the same one when I get my license, which I did.


It has been fully restored, repainted, 5 lug swap and put some work into it. Nothing performance wise, because we're pretty limited here in Germany with mods.

I might put a H22A7 from the European ATR in there when the stock F20 dies though.

Welcome to the site. Not sure why the web address would have come up as blocked for you but I am glad you were able to join! I love seeing 6GA's from other countries. Your car looks great, amazing to see one of these restored.

Do the headlight washers work? Where is the switchgear located for that? I am always curious about features USDM models didn't get. Always want what you can't have I guess haha.

Thank you man!

The headlight washers do work yes, but I never used it. It used to sit under the OEM radio, but once you install a 2 DIN radio, you need to relocate the whole switch holder, so I got rid of everything.
I'm planing on putting everything back when I get the OEM fog lights.

Here is an image with my old radio.

Really nice, simple and clean. Takes me back to the old days when I had mine.

Welcome to the site. Loving the wheels. What are those? I love how the EUDM coupe's trunk taillights don't light up with the parking / headlights turned on. Was something to do with the rear fog lights regulation iirc.

Thank you! Yes, that's right. It's the foglight issue, which I'm to relocated, to make the tail lights look like the classic NSX tail. I swapped in the US tail lights too at the moment. Getting the turn signals to stay on is not that simple though. So I'm working on that.

The wheels are TEC Speedwheels GT Evos in 18x8. The funny thing is that, those are obviously replicas of BBS LMs. BBS world known, German Brand so far so good... BUT These Accords have 5x114,3 which is built in the Japanese BBS plant and by German laws, they don't have the same quality standards as the German ones, therefore it's illegal to use them... Make it make sense.

So yeah, replicas are allowed, original wheels are not.

Really nice, simple and clean. Takes me back to the old days when I had mine.

The interior is not looking that clean anymore. I'm working on getting a nicer steering wheel, but I want to keep the cruise and radio controls. The center console is getting a new carbon look. Right noew they have a carbon wrap which doesn't look all that good anymore

Welcome

Thank you!
