Well said man, I love everything from Audis to Chevy to Ferrari to Saab. Its nice to see what else is goin on outside the LS1 world. It seems like quite a few drive imports (or at least 4cyl) if they have a long commute. You know also I browse alot of other msg boards and these people are by far the most open minded of other autos. Other places if its not specific to that site they don't want anything to do with it.

Nice wheels, are they Axis Se7en's???

It's cool as long as you promise to replace the Honda with an LS-powered vehicle soon...

As a mod , I don't know if this is acceptable or not . I think we need some beer and pizza from you to think about this first. And none of that frozen supermarket crap ,either!

I'm an import driver too...my wifes daily driver car is a v6 accord (looks very similar to what yours did stock), my hunting rig is a slightly lifted s/c v6 4x4 tacoma, my work truck is a pos dodge ram 1500, and my fun car is slightly built 99 t/a.

There really is not substitute for the torque of a good v8 like the lsx...even though I had a pretty bad *** tt supra in the past but it didn't hit hard until about 4k+.

Welcome to the board...how about an ls1 swap in your accord...that would be a true sleeper. (I know that it wouldn't fit, but we can dream can't we)

haha man that would be sweet if an ls1 would fit.. i've actually seen a rwd conversion w/ a 350 in a 99 accord coupe !!

But that costs way more than modding an accord is worth.

Thanks for the compliments.
It may not be really fast but its a ton of fun to drive.

Ok, somebody here has to say it. I welcome you here but only if you eventually purchase an LS1 based vehicle and then drive the rice over the event horizon and straight into the black hole (j/k)
