thank you! i appreciate it. That is why I do it. Nothing like getting a thumbs up from a fbody owner on the highway after a quick pull. I'm all about having fun and just meeting some fellow enthusiasts to talk about our passion for cars. And yes, fwd does suck. Thats why I use my good pals, my Hoosiers, to help me out.

and if you do end up getting a C5Z (which I think is the better buy over the 03 cobra), i hope you would be keeping the accord. I ended up selling my GTO to buy my Boss... and I regret it deeply. Not buying the boss, but selling the GTO. I should have kept it and just got the boss. Personally, I enjoy driving the boss more, but i absolutely miss the **** out of MY gto. It was MY setup, MY choices... and they worked. I went faster with less and it was simple looking and had a sound ive never heard out of any other LS powered car. Thats why i miss it. And thats why you would regret selling the accord to get something else.

the j series is better then the K series. We just don't have the aftermarket yet. No stock K series is dynoing 300whp stock. The average k24 with a built head will make 275 on e85 and 18x lbs of tq. I made 297whp and 305tq on 87 with 18s. Mod to mod, we gain a lot more power then the K series, we have a **** ton more tq then the K series, and why do you think hasport is switching to the J series for their race cars from the K series. And the J series almost weighs the same. They barely offset the weight. Also you don't have to cut a whole in the hood in the newer civics, rsxs, ect. Only the old ones if you choose ground clearance. your argument is retarded, its only that civics have to cut a hole in the hood. really thats it? your complaint is that magically a much larger motor should fit in a car that was never intended to fit a v6. the muscle car guys did this with blowers and cowl hoods but i doubt you complain since you now have a 502 under the hood from your 305 in your g body. you didn't mention, tq, fuel efficiency, stock power to $$$, gains to cost ratio, ect. Ive been working on hondas for 2 years, Im good friends with Brian the owner of hasport, friend with Chris miller, and I know a lot of people in the honda game. Brian@hasport uses the J series, Chris miller uses the B series, and a lot of my friends use the H. The K is a good platform, but its no J.
Me personally id love to build a j-series. Id personally rather build a stroked k24 with a 4piston cnc head package and some single lobe cams as an eat **** car, but thats just my opinion. I have Several friends have made 280whp with just high compression pistons supporting mods and drag cartel off the shelf cams. Im not arguing with you, i personally prefer the k-series, i have my reasons.

You have your opinion, i have mine, till i see a j-series make over 1k whp or do anything impressive that changes the honda drag racing scene i wont really care for it. You're trying to educate the wrong person ive been into hondas since i was 15 man im 22 now. Move along.

FWD never has been, isn't currently, and NEVER WILL BE A GOOD PLATFORM FOR ANY TYPE OF RACING. Fools use them because they're cheap and plentiful. Most domestic guys don't care for people like you because of this type of **** that spews out of your mouths.

Bet you feel super-cool with the bumper that doesn't match, wheels that are big and look ridiculous, and the ebay-special headlights that look like ****.
Here's an idea: put the entire exterior, including wheels, to stock and make it a sleeper. That'd be cooler than your current rice-edition accord.

thanks for the comment, Its actually not rice at all. The front bumper doesn't match because it was in an accident and the whole car is actually going into paint this month, those wheels are forged BBS's from when the car used to be low and slow, and the headlights are blackhoused oems. The car is an ultra sleeper. Theres literally zero modifications to the exterior other then my real bbs wheels, a Honda OEM front lip and blackhousings. Hell, the car doesn't even have tints. Hate on it as much as you want. Like i said in a few earlier posts, it used to look nice until i crashed it. Im very aware of how it looks now.

2. Wheels are too big. They could be full carbon fiber wheels, I don't care, they look bad. He likes them, though, so I'm happy for him. However, I can express my opinion, and I say that this looks silly. Maybe it'll look better when he paints the bumper, but either way it's on huge wheels.
3. The headlights are painted in such a way that they look like the Ebay Depo headlights. Again, the OP likes them and that's what is important. But again, I still think it looks shitty and is a downgrade in appearance.
There are multiple examples of well-executed sleeper Accord and Civics that make more horsepower than both of our cars combined. This is not.

lol....you'll never learn...so you've been doin the same dumb **** for 7 yrs. I've got more experience with hotrods than years you've been alive. Op did a good job with his build by getting away from the 4cyl and getting a motor that makes some tq....though I'm sure he and I will never agree on the merits of honda chassis
Adam go put your money where your mouth is....it's just dumb not to and you look dumb not doin that.

thanks man!
Im not sure if you have a problem comprehending information so Ill say it again. I was involved in an accident, thats why the bumper isn't painted. It will be painted soon. Once again you don't understand. The wheels are a perfect size for my car. They're the most popular sized wheel used. 17s look to small and 19s look to big. 18s are just right. It looks awkward in one picture because of the angle and I raised the car. The headlights are the most popular mod people do to my car, they're not egay lights. They're Honda oem. go on 6thgenaccord.com and look at all the cars there.
thank you. this guy seems so fixated on the color of the housings on my headlights, the fact that my bumper isn't painted yet because I was involved in an accident recently and he severely dislikes the most poplar sized wheel diameter for my kind of car. the internet......i don't understand it sometimes.

Did you not read number two, where I clearly addressed you painting the bumper? I even numbered it to make it more comprehensible. Yet somehow it failed. How is that possible?
And I understand they're OEM lights with blackhousing. We have both said this a couple of times.
Evan, if we were all silent with our opinions, this world would be a very boring place.
Imagine a world where everyone complimented each other, raising a feeling of euphoria and boosting ones ego, while the true, ugly reality of what people thought was either kept in their head or mentioned behind the other's back. It would lead to back-stabbing insults and men driven insane by negative thoughts trapped in their head, leading them to go on killing sprees, destroying once-peaceful communities and workplaces. You return home from work, only to find that your wife was killed by a man who kept his thoughts to himself, because that's what his mother taught him. So perhaps mother really wasn't so wise.
However, I would like to see the Accord ONCE YOU PAINT THE BUMPER(hopefully by using caps lock, you will see that I already got it. If not, I'll increase the size of the text, too.) And let us know the results of the race.

Yea, I know P2R very well, I use every product they sell for the J series, I also know the owner Sean.
do I know you? and how do you know I know Qazi and Moe? They know my car VERY WELL. Its been towed there like 100 times, they've worked on it more then any other shop and they fixed the whole car after I crashed it.
