I dont think that glue will hold good. u need some industrial strength glue, like the ones they use at body shops

nspec Didn't you make yours?

If that doesn't work you can try 2-part 5 minute epoxy from home depot and the like. It holds really good. I'ved used it to repair intake parts on my motorcycle. Then even sand it and fill in the imperfections with bondo.

In my accord, I never bought the CL sail panels for my alpine tweeters and this is what I did, a little similar:

You do know they sell this on eBay black or gray for $50 shipped black or gray IMO less work bit then it's good to know u can DIY

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

seriously i do know they sell it but i hate they way it looks and i think my custom gauges will look 100% better

do you see the differance ?

CLSspeedx

Cool and can't wait to see

Are those made of pvc pipes?

All parts that was used you can find in home depot

Looking nice! I have a soft spot for "one off" designs and those that use creative versus a fat wallet! Good work

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

thanks i really think it looks good that i am surprised a bit... i was thinking about getting 3rd one but that would be too much i guess this looks nice and neat

CLSspeedx

It looks good from the shot. Did you paint it like satin black or find paint that matched the stock pillar color? It was a little hard to tell in the picture.

I'm toying with gauge pods fabbed into the top of the steering wheel cover if I can get an extra one. Maybe use that spot or the pillar too for a stealth radar detector or a gauge also when the need comes.

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

both pillars painted matte black for plastics and came out like satin/semi gloss i dont like i will repaint it once this Bitch Irene is gone

CLSspeedx

Cool good luck... ya she missed us sorry she headed up that way!

That looks really good man! You make me wanna do this... I think i'll do this soon. hehe

Thanks.

I think i will be selling my p&p'ed IM and runners because i dont see a point to have that once im suprecharged. I will be getting j32a3 runner so they probably fit RDX injectors without problem. Also im thinking that my clutch wont handle extra power so i will be getting CM Stage 3 before i put blower in.

If anyone is interested in IM and runner send me PM

Total2f

That seems counter productive to sell your PnP IM and runners. They will flow better regardless if you are FI or not.

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

maybe it does but im going to pick up new runners anyway if they will work the way i think.
i dont think it would be that beneficial that much i think 300-320 whp will be plenty

anthracitecl

iTrader: (7)

so when are you gonna install sc?

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

it kinda has to wait i have few things that has to be done before blower goes in like :

camber kit and alignment;
ball joints
inspect all engine mounts once again (alot of engine movement)
RDX injectors
stage 3 cm clutch

it will take me a while especialy that im going to break my bank account but i found great deal on the brand new clutch that i cant miss, after that i will put blower in and get RL calipers...


today i hooked up gauges and they look great still need to hook up o2 sensor though

AlwaysFlossin'

i see your putting a lot of work into your car...Can't wait to hear this..

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

i may try low boost before i do clutch just because im impatient :P but first alignment, balljoints and new tires

i dont feel like im going to change balljoints myself how much shop should charge me for this ?

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

One more thing. Can i run lightweight stock size crank pulley and lightweight flywheel with supercharger ?

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

i dont know about the clutch but yes about the pulley. i got a UR lightweight stock size pulley.

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

I know that too but im thinking if that combo wont be too light to run sc.

zeta

iTrader: (1)

Be aware that if you install the blower before you change out your upgraded clutch, you'll just have to yank that buggar out again because of needed access to the front motor mount to drop the tranny. In additon, the lower blower brace is connected to the tranny at the tranny lift bracket as well.

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

thanks for that info i was hoping that i wont have to yank it but oh well

i took a picture of my car after wax



i was hoping to get the o2 sensor installed today but no luck... i wanted to pay for it they didnt take it so im gonna do it myself tomorrow a good quality pics coming up tomorrow as well

Paint looks nice but it might look shinier if it had low miles

Hows the used supercharger install going? Your car should sound nice when it's done.

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

thanks asshole your paint is nicer because it was repainted twice, and used supercharger was rebuild by manufactor so its brand new

What's wrong whit this kid??? I won't pay more than 3k for your car Jacob

+1 for doing the clutch first. you'll also need time for the "break-in" period on the clutch so having a charger on won't do you any good. i had my clutch installed first. did the break-in and now doing the turbo. no point in doing the charger first because you will be doing it twice.

1sickaccord

idk how or it's not letting me cause im to "new" i think ill check again
