Default what do you think of the tired old accord?

heres my lil car

www.com-tech-online.com/car/

its an 86 accord with 236,000 miles!

all i have on it so far is the standard IHE. and suspension mods.
but cam and CAI, and high flow cat are on the way.

please excuse the ghetto wheel situation, i have a cracked rim , and bad camber wear on my fronts, from no camber kit, but thats all fixed now!
also i am brewing up a HMT solution of course...

i use to have a car like that, actually 2 of them and blew both of them up on stock everything not the most reliable motor. i do belive you can drop a B16 in them tho with a lot of work. is this a LXI? or a DX?

Nice, that has got to be the cleanest 86 accord I have seen. It will defintely be a sleeper when it's turbocharged.

Looks good Chris!

Here's my old 89 accord HB. I'm currently looking for an Fuel Injected version so I can go turbo.

Of course.. but around here, there are mostly DX (carbed) cars and a handfull of Lxi versions. I checked out one white one and it was a POS.

There's one in cali for 2500 body is mint but, it'll be a month or so before i can go after it.

The DX and LX accords were carb and The LXI was MPFI.

Who's car are you talking about?


I'd rather TURBO a 2.0 A20 (cast block). than to fab mounts for the H22a.

We get a mount kit for any B series. We also get a JDM B20A from Japan that is 160 hp Dohc. (Drop In). Dont confuse this motor with the USDM Prelude. We can do a rear disc swap off the Luxury SEi (loaded with leather). I'm confident about my plans for turbo
