VEHICLE STORY

When I started driving this car, it was awful. Gravel trucks could beat me 0-60. The front end was beat up from the previous owner hitting a deer. The car was in a state of mechanical disrepair. It came to a point where I would either have to replace the car or repair it. Having determined that I couldn't afford to replace it, I decided that I would turn it into a car that I actually like. It took a lot of work and a lot of money, but I finally got it there. So yeah. Here's my late 90s inspired late 90s Accord. It's the cool 90s car that the Accord never was. Inside, it's set up to be a little more modern. All the lighting is upgraded to SMDs. And I mean literally every changeable bulb. I've also installed a Gamecube with an SD Gecko for some extra entertainment.

What's actually wrong with the car?

Engine is trashed. Blown head gasket. Bad rings and rear main seal (hence the oil all over the engine bay). I have a JDM F23A sitting right next to the car ready for wrenching, but ugh.

Integrated oil cooler?

[–]Timothy Markworth

It's the oil cooler from an H22. It goes between the filter and engine block with a coolant passage providing some extra temperature pull. Not sure how I'll get that part hooked up on an F23A, but for less than $25, I don't care. I'll think of something.
