1. epadilla19

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...



6. Me at my sons birthday ~1 ago...



7. 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...

Eddie, your account is active.  Welcome to EliteCM!

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.
