6th Gen Accord Coupe Build

[puzzlemaster94]

Radical build, really excited to see where you go from here.

Your car is very well put together, I like all of the design choices you've made thus far. I have a huge appreciation for tidy, well thought out Honda builds.

Thanks man!!! I've loved you're Prelude build. Still have it? Love those 5th Gens and that green. Big fan of the M3 build also.

Thanks man. I'm trying



You know Jordan too? Yea, I wanted the Rotiforms he had on his RSX, but he sold them before I had the chance. I did buy the tires off him though. Yea, I've hung out with him a few times and bought parts off him. Post some pictures of your sedan. I've really wanted to do a sedan build, as I can swap most of my parts that I'm not using on the coupe to a sedan.

Yes I do! That's the homie we've been friends for years now. My sedan is wrecked right now so it's just sitting.

That was my build thread for it. I'm currently working on a ford probe gt right now but will tend to the accord when I'm done with the probe.

Yea, Ive seen that thread. Probably commented in it too lol. Shaun on here has a 2G probe bagged on VS-KF's, but I'm sure that you've seen that already.

Another friend of mine has a 2G Probe also, but it has the JDM KL-ZE in it. Pretty fun car while it was running around.



Also ordered what I hope to be the last remaining parts for this swap. Also debating on machining up some 3/8 OR 1/2 inch spacers for the motor mounts to raise the motor just a bit, since the J32 oil pan hangs down 5/8's of an inch more, compared to my J30. I should have the added romm, since I replaced the J32 manifold with a J37 manifold

Did some work on the J32 today and drove it to a show.

Well it's been a while again.

Grabbed some BC's and went lower, bought side skirts and a rear lip, installed my roof spoiler, and a few other odds and ends. Here's how it sits before I get the front camber I need for clearance in the front.

Here I am again not posting progress.

First off, J32 6speed swap is done. If you are interested in the breakdown of the parts, here it is:

--Around 80k on the motor
Parts to Convert it to a Manual Engine:
--Manual CL Type S Engine Harness

----Reason for this, the manual motors use two cam sensors, auto only uses one.
--Manual CL Type S Crankshaft Gear
--Manual CL Type S Crankshaft Sensor
--Manual CL Type S Crankshaft Sensor Sub-Harness
----Reason for this, the automatic sensor will not work with the new gear or plug into the manual engine harness. Also the manual sensor is just a plug and harness, while is the auto is all connected.

Parts Not Being Used:

Auto J32a2 Front Cam Gear
--This has smaller surface areas than the manual gear, so the manual sensor will not read it correctly.


Other than that, here is a few more pictures. I'll try to keep this forum updated with the others as well.
