1992 Accord LX Sedan
 
The new daily.


Cons:
Has 276k miles
5 spd
Grinds 3rd and 4th if you shift to fast
I shift it really slow into those gears or jump straight to 5th.
Driver window goes down but comes off track
Passenger rear window does not come down
Mirror adjuster switch thingy gets stuck and the mirrors try to kill them selves
Shift boot is torn
Pedals are bare medal no covers
Clear is coming off the roof paint is all gone
Only ding is on driver fender and its pretty minimal
Power steering leaks

Pros:
Passed emissions today with flying colors. I didn't do anything but change oil and filter as well as a transmission fluid change
Compression check came out with 200psi across all 4 cylinders
Looks like it has new lower ball joints and upper control arms
Steering rack look new
Tires have alot of life
Doesn't pull to any sides
Gray interior in great condition
No engine noises/leaks
No transmission leaks
Has new cheap autolight spark plugs (came with)

Only have a few pics of when I first got it






















Plans????

Still don't know
Would like some oem Accord wheels
Small suspension upgrades
Better transmission



Interior pic update


Was wondering why my speakers kept cutting in and out



















Only real injuries to the out side

Drop it, black house the headlights, add some 98 se accord wheel's ( they sort of look like hx wheels)....and a 94 97 front lip,and customize that oem grill and as far as the mirrors thing I've had 4 accords and none of them ever had functioning mirror's they always get stuck and just try to move but they get jammed

That's what I did to my last accord. But it had the 93 ex fat five type rims I kinda liked those. But the ones your talking about I liked to. I was trying to get some for my other accord but never happened.

94-97 oem lip? Didn't know about that one
I do want to drop it but I want to get a decent setup. I saw. GC coilovers on CL. I think for this car a good strut coil over combo would be fine. I don't think it needs a full adjustable suspension
Was thinking about throwing the type s muffler on it just because it's sitting there

Some old lights I did




When I first got it


After a new front end


With the headlights

Chuck Chainz 02-09-2016 07:29 AM

Never been a fan of that era Accord, for me it's DB > everything, lol
But at least you got a 5 speed.

You going to crack that trams open and fix the issue or just get a different tranny?

S!K TEG 02-09-2016 07:33 AM

Is that a DA lip? The legend lip doesnt look bad either

red da guy 02-09-2016 09:10 AM

Accord ex lip noob

IS-Frank 02-09-2016 09:32 AM

Sorry yes 94 97 accord front lip......my last accord I had the si prelude rims...also the cd7 rear deck trunk spoiler looks great on these cars

4dr_ed3 02-09-2016 11:20 AM

Rather just get another and make sure its in good condition. Swap it over so I don't have alot of down time. It's my daily remember lol

IS-Frank 02-09-2016 02:27 PM

just get another transmission these are notorious for bad 3rd gear syncros....

Chuck Chainz 02-09-2016 02:55 PM

Fify

CAPTAIN CAAAAAAAVEMAN 02-09-2016 04:00 PM

Find h23 trans...

Yay! Accord <3 yay! :blunt: :doobie:

4dr_ed3 02-09-2016 05:56 PM

That's the plan but they seem pretty hard to find now.

CAPTAIN CAAAAAAAVEMAN 02-09-2016 06:13 PM

Wow, times are a changin lol

There is some local person with full f23 swaps for under 400 hmmm


mar_phi6 02-09-2016 06:49 PM

That an upgrade?

CAPTAIN CAAAAAAAVEMAN 02-09-2016 08:02 PM

Well yes and no, its newerr but would be pain in the butt to convert to obd2... but even if you just got it for the trans its a good deal.

mar_phi6 02-09-2016 08:30 PM

Only if it was plug and play. H23 are hard to find nowadays

4dr_ed3 02-09-2016 09:02 PM

It's more of an economy engine rated at 150. 10 hp more than a f22a6.

I was really happy with how much torque my old a6 in my coupe had.I'd like to build an a6 motor. Nothing crazy. Seen a few mild builds put down about 180hp and 166 tq. That's plenty of torque to have fun

mar_phi6 02-09-2016 10:28 PM

Deng. To bad mine automatic.. BTW not sure if you this he might have a transmission for sale.

mar_phi6 02-09-2016 10:31 PM

Sorry to hijack your thread but is it even worth upgrading to the h23 intake ,manifold?

4dr_ed3 02-09-2016 11:43 PM

Yes

king06 02-10-2016 02:48 AM

Replace all bushings and mounts. Replace bushings in shifter maybe upgrade? Get some OEM prelude wheels(blades?), nice shocks with skunk2 springs. That was mine :p

CAPTAIN CAAAAAAAVEMAN 02-10-2016 06:32 PM

Buy this one, use trans and whatever else you need, part out the rest?


4dr_ed3 02-10-2016 09:06 PM

I'm about to move and won't have the space for the cars I have now. I have a huge back yard note with an rv gate and that's where the extra cars have gone. New house is in a col-de-sack not alot of street parking. Has a 2car garage but the integra Is going in there alone. Two spots outside in drive way and one small street spot in front of the house. So I can only have 4 cars. Project, daily, wife's and oldest sons. His ideas the one that will be the street lol

4dr_ed3 02-11-2016 08:11 PM

Added some interior pics and some areas that need attention

4dr_ed3 02-13-2016 08:00 PM

Put the rsx-s muffler on the sedan looks good imo



Also bled my clutch, one of the causes the trans was shifting weird.
And after closer inspection, I found that the previous owner replaced a section of the line with a brake line. Literally on oem hinda front rubber brake line.

I also made my own diy short shifter adapter. Added some washers to sections to stiffen up the feel a bit aswell
