I haven't decided. I will probably part out and trade it in for a CR-V or Fit.

I still currently own it and forever to own it.

Dont Get rid of it!

The Accord has been giving me problems left to right. Tranny blew, needs a new ECU (P2227 Barometric Circuit Pressure Range Performance Failure), TCS light is on (Left Rear and Right Rear Wheel Speed Sensor Malfunction), TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) has been giving me problems (rpm jerks around 4000rpm until V-TEC is engaged after 5500rpm), Brakes are squeeling for some odd reason, Drive side door lock actuator is stuck, Passanger window regulator does not roll up windows during cold days, Driver side window switch is stuck (takes 3-5 trys to roll up or down window), P2195 and P2197 Bank 1 and Bank 2 Sensor 1 Stuck Lean.

Dang man, sorry to hear about your problems with the car.  Do you think the blown tranny has anything to do with the supercharger?

[MyNameIsThien]

More and likely, Yes. Honda automatic transmission are built poorly. It can only handle so much power and torque. The SC took it to its limit, and the SC won.

SC - 1
Tranny - 0

That's too bad Thien. I'd say go with the Fit. I was looking at those before I picked up my Accord, but I personally would swap a K20 ASAP into the Fit. For being as small as it is, its surprisingly roomy. And rather fun to throw around even though its underpowered.

i argee the FIT is go

[timot_one]

I believe that you have to modify the firewall to shoehorn a K20 into a Fit.  Their engine compartment is extremely small.  My gf has one and I don't even want to attempt anything in that itty bitty engine bay.  Sorry to hear about your misfortune Thien.  I wish there was more I could do to help.

[CrackerTeg]

Tim, there's mount kits available for it. There's a bunch of guys running JRSCed K20s in Fits. Either way, sorry to get OT. Thien, hopefully you figure out what you want to do. Me personally, I try to keep a vehicle until it dies. But like you said, a coupe isn't exactly conducive to a family. Let us know what you decide man.

It's sucks to read the problems you're having.

Good luck with whatever direction you take. I just hope that if you do get something other than an Accord, that you contiue to be part of this community.

[CrackerTeg]

+1 to what Arie said.

[MyNameIsThien]

Of course I will still be part of this community. I am one of the co-founders, and I'm also an admin. So, I have to make sure nothing gets out of hand.
