Crono's build thread

[Crono139]

Well, I'm really not starting a build because the car is already far along, but what the hell.

My main goal is to get this car fully in order.



Current mods:
DC Sports Intake
Tanabe Medalion Touring Exhaust
A'PEXi V-AFC II w/ Boomslang harness
Tein Basic Coilovers
Eibach Front Strut Bar
Brembo Blank Rotors
Hawk HPS Brake Pads
17" 5Zigen FN01R-Cs
225/45/17 Yokohama AVS ES100s
OEM Spoiler
OEM Under Spoiler Kit
ProCarParts Mesh Grill
ProCarParts Eyelids
TSX Projector Retrofit w/ Color Mod in OEM Housings
Hella / Philips Gen 3 HID kit
15% Tint All-Around
Acura MDX Steering Wheel


I have a spare IM that needs to be polished, ported, and painted, a spare TB that has been ported by Maxbore, a Neuspeed ceramic header that needs to be coated by Jet-Hot, a spare valve cover that needs to be painted... and the list goes on.

Everything else I'll be doing is just to get the car in better shape overall.

I need to get to work on this damn thing because there's an Accord meet that I'm going to in May.

Car looks good, I think I'm going to buy those same wheels in Bronze for my RX8.

Thanks.

The wheels are light as hell. You'll love them.

I hope so, I bought 17x9 with a 275/40-17 RT-615 for the track

You'll be happy.

I swapped my wheels today, and I was reminded just how light they are.

Nah, I have to get that damn thing ported, cleaned, and painted before I throw it on. That's what I'm looking to do during the summer.


By the way, I got that spare IM for $3.25 plus shipping off of eBay. Last night, I came across another steal of a deal. Ended up winning this combo for $123.50. If I had bought it brand new through an actual business, I'd be paying just over $300.

The Car looks good Crono.

I am having a hard time finding a set of es100 online. Every site that i have checked online is out of stock and there is no way i am going to wait another 60-90 days for them. I was wondering where did you get yours at?

The Tire Rack, of course.

^ That's the site i ordered the tires from and ended up getting a call about an hour ago saying they're out of stock. :frustrated:

Oh yeah the tire size i am looking is 195/50/15.

Looks great man!

Do you actually have any problems with the car or just want to get it looking a tad better?

How do you like those tires? I had a set on the Integra last year and loved them.
