you just have to cut your bumper and put this part in there

I must have missed something....you moving to Germany?

Um... Tall gears... Autobahn... Yes, please? Lol I'm moving to Germany next year.

Wait a second.... What the ****?

Yup...

The European bumpers are available in England, I would talk to Ubik, and I think there are a few others, maybe someone from Australia can confirm if theirs' look like that? I know the European ones do.. There ARE genuine 6thgens in Europe, not just Torneo-style Euro Accords.

Good to hear.

I know, I just wanted to blend in a little better, and I need to replace my rear bumper anyway.

Hey I joined up to compliment your build. I have a 2000 lx 5spd that I will be breaking into this spring. I was considering an H22A swap, but after reading though your build, I may consider an F23 build. Good info in here, and what a build!

Thanks! I can't recommend the H series for just a stock swap, but if you're going to really build the H for all-motor and tune it, its a great platform with lots of aftermarket support. From my experiences with building the F23, its not a great platform for all motor unless you go high compression and swap to an H22/F22 head. My only regret is not throwing boost at the F23 a long time ago.

 

[AFAccord]

I got the 6, 14, and 19psi runs plotted on the same graph for comparison. Wish I had the boost plot, but we didn't have it hooked up. At least this gives me a good idea of how the boost builds down low.

very nice job it's amazing to see an f23 with more than 400hp !

(In Borat voice) "very nice, High Five"

BTW- I spent 2 weeks in germany. I was surprised not to see many Japanese cars. I have known seveal people who brought there cars from japan to germany. But, they must have traded them for beemers. Have fun.
