Branded my car and added a new shifter.

A little welding, grinding, cutting, grinding, ad rethreading and its ALIVE! (evil laugh).

Enjoy.








Need to make a camo shift boot now. . .

[93BlkOnGreenPro]

This is another non-performance mod, but it goes with my grenade shifter. Enjoy.

And thanks to Coleman, I picked up a jdm low milage short block the other week as a spare backup. Now I'm trying to figure out wether i should boost it, or leave it the good milage sohc that it is. Decisions, decisions.

The power to weight ratio of your wagon is off the chain!

lip looks good, honda accord?

JACK.

[93BlkOnGreenPro]

Yep. Like a 95.

I need to find me an accord rear lip. It looks good.

[93BlkOnGreenPro]

I put a JIS reman bottom end, new oil pump, water pump, gaskets, etc etc, and a sub 120xxx mile head in Maxine a few weeks ago. My old 199xxx engine was smoking really bad after idling for maybe 3 mins, so instead of trying to pin point the problem, I just completely replaced it, and its components. No lifter tick, or smoke, ftw! I still have a little vacuum issue, which i hope is solved by buying 4 fuel injector kits. Enjoy!

very nice! how come no BP swap?

[93BlkOnGreenPro]

No BP money. I would have had to buy another head, pistons, tensioners, another timing belt, valve cover, ecu, and whatever else. Plus, I was getting 35 mpg with the worn out engine, so I"m trying to mimic that here. I'm a poor college senior trying to streeeecth a dollar. But maybe a BP swap is in the near future. Imma total up the amount spent in a little while.

[93BlkOnGreenPro]

So, for the total swap, ie, the reman short block from a fellow cp member w/ the head, timing belt, water pump, plus the old engine, the exedy clutch kit with pressure plate, resurfaced flywheel, then the rest of the stuff that i bought, ie oil pump, gaskets, thermostat, hoses, belts, tranny mount, etc, I spent a grand total of $736.74, according to my receipts.

Not to bad of a deal. $40 more for a fuel injector kit, and I'm golden :-)

[ryan1]

i wanted to this rear lip mod, on my shortened u.s. spec bumper, but i just ordered a jdm one.

[Escortfan]

Very creative with the shift knob, and boot. Which car is that front console out of?
