2. My real name is Eddie 3. I'm from Pomona, CA but I've lived in Austin, TX for ~11 years. 4. My accord is a 2003 Accord Coupe LX Automatic. It was stock until I recently paid it off and went from sorting to driving at UPS. It now has; ***** Suspension: Drag Dr-16 (16x7 +48 offset) It's not the right offset but I'll change that down the road. Riken Raptor ZR (255/55-R16) - Cheap, I know, but it only cost about a grand with lifetime warranty. TL-S rear sway mod V6-6 3-point STB mod Engine: NRG 350CCA lightweight battery - Will upgrade soon, not enough CCA to crank in CenTX winters(20 degrees or worse) Ralco RZ Underdrive Pulley kit - Another cheap part, had slight fitment issues. Other than that it seems fine. K-tuned power steering delete kit - Added some oomph, cost me ability to pass TX inspection. Injen CAI - Wow it's loud... 2004 TSX manifold DC stainless 4-2-1 2-piece header Tanabe Medallion Touring Stainless Exhaust I'm in the middle of doing and EHPS conversion with the power steering pump from an MR2. Partly to pass inspection, partly because I can't get into the really tight parking spots at work. I'm also acquiring ktuner soon as it is a plug and play option at a VERY good price point and hopefully if I take the plunge other Gen7 Accord owners will follow... ***** 5. Me and my car after the snow...

Me at my sons birthday ~1 ago...

I've lurked Drive Accord and 7GenAcc since I bought my Accord back in 2007, I joined G7A not long before it changed formats and disappeared. I preferred the more performance oriented posts and DIY's I saw when people started referring to elitecm and I knew then that this would be where I would end up eventually. I hope this does it. I have better pictures but I'll need to find them. Any Q's Ill also gladly answer... Title: Re: New Member Post by: timot_one on April 01, 2014, 08:54:05 PM Eddie, your account is active.

If you need help with the EHPS conversion, let me know. I have a friend that did it on his RSX. If you're willing to spend even more money and put in a good amount of work, you can also use the EPS rack from the Hybrid Accord. It's a lot of work, but definitely another alternative. |
