Any comment where to start from? yea.. but some looks have better areodynamics then others.. that some looks are a performance thing.. or carbonfiber hood its looks but also performance since its lightweight,some rims look nice as long as there lightweight at decent size, but altezzas and glow lights and blacklight in your car, and colorful paintjob, those kinda looks arent that great...

lone_wuv Posted January 27, 2003 Author Share Posted January 27, 2003 Thanks civgrl01 My car is 89 accord LX(auto). It quite old, and look like first 2 owner didn't pay attention much for it. What is "spoon parts" ? :( I'm a newborn to this world so....ehehee Anyway, I just want to do something that make my 89 more power. For now it like an old man, especially in winter. There are quite few problems with it, I will name them here: - the engine doesn't start in the morning or after parking for 4 hrs +. I have to press the gas pedal twice or three time. That's y i can't install remote starter bleh and get my ass freeze everymorning. - when engine start it auto rev up to 3 and then back down to 0 and the engine turn off unless i hit the gas pedal from there on it stay at 2 and slowly rev to 2.3 and stay there for 3 mins. Man, that make a hell of noise. After that i have to press gas again so it will lower to 1 or 1.3. Now my car ready to roll but heck it still sound like grumpy old man - for first 20 mins of driving i feel power respond from engine. It pick up speed fast but noisy. After that even i press gas hard it just gain speed slowly. And heck it eat oil like champion, 4 ltrs of oil only last me 2k and I have to put some in. those are my car problem right now. I think if I could fix all those my car will be better and ready for more changing. So, civgrl01 and any1 helppp... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 i would say that you should just save up for a car that has more tuning potential. even if you do fix all the problems with it it will still run like crap and not be very fast. 89 lx's and lxi's aren't the fastest cars in the world. or...save up and drop a b series or h series motor into it. that would be a hell of a sleeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lone_wuv Posted January 28, 2003 Author Share Posted January 28, 2003 save up and drop a b series or h series motor into it. that would be a hell of a sleeper how much should i save untill I can get B or H engine and install it? few hundreds alien ehehehe Well I think I have to start saving for new car then. Untill then have to learn something about engine. Any suggestion website every1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
