Well swapped out my motor mounts today! Money WELL spent imo. They were SHHIIOOOTTT. The rear one had actually completely ripped off. The rubber fell out as soon as we pulled it out. The rest were just as torn. Hoping she’ll idle and shift a lot better now. Also took my header and collector out again. JB weld burned all the way off so we tried some stuff made for exhaust. Hope it works, if not I’ll probably order a Megan Header.

lol bud dont create another thread, just keep posting in here and people will commento it lol dont see me complaining when people dont comment on mine lol just keep up the hard work and post it up i will enjoy the updates
I just get annoyed sometimes. Yesterday was one of those times haha. I’ll keep it updated I guess. Actually about to go take a peek at your thread. I see a new post from you!
Alright well the motor is all back together now. Figured out for sure that my IM doesn’t have a spot for the EGR valve, so the last owner just deleted in, but never bypassed it properly. But the car idles correctly now. Before it was at 1500rpms but now it’s at a nice 1k. Shift wayy smoother too. Also painted my valve cover. Wanted to do red but no one had it , so black was fine.
Oh yeah I temporarily found a plug for the antenna and got the two rear brackets for the back seat. The idiot before me though cut the piece that holds the bottom and the back together. Guess we’ll either get a new one welded on or just find something that works.
Alright well I got my turn signals in today! Looks really good now. Also tried to recharge my ac, and my AC compressor busted. It didn’t blow but it started leaking the crap everywhere and made a bad noise. Well anyways, here’s some pics.
Also snapped a quick pic at my friends place. The infamous “posing with police car” picture, haha.
I’m ordering a set of ddm tuning HIDs today. 35w, Hi/Lo, 5000k. Can’t wait!
Ordered them just a couple minutes ago. Can’t wait until they get here!
Got a lip From my buddy Rob. It’s from an 4th gen Accord EX. It’s a little short on the ends but looks good imo. Definitely makes the car look way better!
Alrighty, there’s all my updates I haven’t posted, haha. The lip is the only one that’s actually from today, the rest were copied. Enjoy!
Nice progress man. Wish mine was done already lol. Paint is looking very good!
Thanks! What’s up with yours?
Paint, engine build, suspension, $$$. Ever heard of the home depot front lip? it’s the ghetto diy way.
that valve cover came out alright man:up:
Yeah it did come out good. Wish I could have done it in red but no one had.
And I’ve seen the Home Depot lip, can’t say I would ever do it.
Alright well I installed my HID’s today. Didn’t take too long just had to look up where the wires went in the adapter plug. As far as I can tell it’s already a lot brighter but the sun’s not all the way down yet. Anyone have any advice on how to set them up? like how far away and how many feet off the ground the beam should be. Measure middle of headlight then beam on a wall?
Alright.
Well here are some pics. I’m not really sure if I have them set right but I ended up poiting them as far down as they went because I kept getting flashed with high beams. They don’t have the best cut off but I don’t think they are that bright at someones face. Also the high beams are kinda lopsided? The driver side points a lot at the ground, even more than the lows. Idk, I also have to work on setting up the camera for night shots. If anyone has some tips that would be appreciated. It’s a Nikon Coolpix P90.
lol nice man very bright
