my build a slow but steady pace will win the race

Might have said this before? gotta pay to play, shoveled snow off the walkways at 2 am and have been looking for solutions on my mount issues well I found it right here all of it.

I bet these guys could fab someone up some mean mounts for any car http://www.ballisticfabrication.com/Link-brackets_c_24.html

as you can see there are many solutions here waiting for my decision I can now rest in peace wakin up at 7:30 its 3:30 now O no

Can't wait to see this thing boost. Are you building the block at all? Btw that is one of the sexiest garages i have ever seen...so much space for shenanigans.

lol you guys have the same hood, and rims, and going boosted

it's a good look, y not

If only my car were dark blue, then they would be identical. BTW where did you get that turbo manifold?

For the front support beam try something like this to replace the front mount. By shrinking the size of the mount you should be able to sneak by a downpipe. I wouldn't get rid of that manifold, it's toooo baller!!

A company called Explicit Speed Performance makes a whole new front support beam for 5th gen accords with traction bars.

good luck to you bro... build it right the first time!

pretty much the same looking doesn't look like you have enkei's though and is that a vis hood? anyways...................

got the manifold off ebay I see that spoolin performance offers one as well.

for the mount not shure exactly what I am going to do but I have a few real good ideas. deffinatly going to keep people updated on that it may take me a while but that has to get figured out first.

I have traction bars in my mind they will be custom home made units there so easy to make I cant justify paying to have them pre made.

O yeah even with an identical mount (depicted above by akoutmos) my down pipe won't fit. I either have to go up or down from the mounts on my block before I can go over to the sub frame as the down pipe will barely clear the area that the mount is attatched to the block. this is after I weld in bends ect for clearance

 

[akoutmos]

I called a while back when i started my turbo set up. They told me that their manifolds were equal port while the f23 is unequal port. if only i had the welding skills i have now, would have spent my money more wisely, and TIG welded my own manifold together. Def want to see how you put your traction bar setup together, been lookin at makin one for my accord since it suffers from massive whell hop from a dig.

What engine management you going btw?

 

[Russianred]

Wow amazing progress man!

That manifold is sooooo sick!

Akoutmos, I think he's wavering between AEM EMS and S300 for engine management.

forgot the f22a and b are different

going for hondata but theres a 2% chance I could use the aem I have allready. you can still make a manifold if its fancy enough maybe make annother and I'll buy it. as for the traction bar I am going to worry about the 1000 things I need to do to the car before that then I will go back and re do the entire suspension paint ect. I have a 3 year plan for the car seriously.


update on the car: havent been to the hanger for a few days been busy working and dads got the gate key so I gotta go with him when I go and hes leaving friday till the 18th . butttttttttttttttt I have a plan for the engine mount!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so next time I make it to the hangar I will have a few progress pictures I promise
