My new DD: 1994 Honda Accord with JDM H22 Swap

[ATK_Designs]

BIG Thanks to many friends of mine:

Vuong, Krappy and VG Crew at Vuong's Garage
Dinh at Nissan
and my special paint artist, you know who you are.


They've helped me transforming the car from completely non-drivable to fully functioning,passing emission legally, and running very storng. If budget permits, I'll get the exhaust reworked and the car tuned.

Just an FYI of the history, I bought the car in Early 2005. It was non drivable. Swap was done by Mahdavi but wasn't idle right. The interior was in pieces, no audio, no speakers. The engine bay was a complete mess and "BLACKENED", etc.


Enough with the rambling, here's a quick mod list.

Wheels:
18" Racing Hart M6 - Gunmetal - for summer
17" Konig GT-R for winter
2 spare Motegi 18" (as see in rear wheels)


Audio:
Eclipse CD5442 CD Player with Aux input
Elemental Designs 6000 component system
Polk Audio 12" Subs in sealed Box (I have the box, just haven't give it to V yet)
5 Channel Amp

Exterior:
Mugen Urethane front lip (NEW)
Painted OEM sides and rear

I snapped couple quick pics yesterday right before the ATL G&Z meet. She's drying from the snow storm.

Don't mind the dirty and mismatch wheels, I have the full set of the Konig GT-R (Front wheels) for winter and a set of 18" Racing Hart M6 for the summer that I'll be cleaning them, and putting on when I clean her up good this weekend.

Things that I still need to get done:

1. Clean the Konig GT-R Wheels and may be paint them - They will go to Bucky if I do.
2. Flush the brake system and replace with ATE Super Blue DOT4 fluid
3. Install Rear Spoiler

4. Install Honda Emblem - Anyone got the Trunk emblem??
5. Install Driver and Passenger Interior door handles.
6. Install bump stops on my front coilovers.


Anyone care to help me this weekend (Saturday)? I'll buy you lunch. I can't do all that in 1 day.

it's my DD, so I couldn't careless. The Konigs once cleaned up will look pretty good, especially for winter wheels.

I'll slap these on in the summer

Racing Hart M6 off my old Accord I had a long time ago. Rare wheels, simple, strong, and nice.

This one, but in gunmetal

[Fr33way]

Need for winter wheels?

[WhiteAccord]

Looks real good.

Interested in some rims?

[ATK_Designs]

Thanks guys, I think 2.5 sets of wheels are good enough for me. After all, it's just my DD.

No point in spending more for the DD while I can focus on my other 2 big projects :)

[eclipse24]

how much did they charge for the swap

[ATK_Designs]

how much did they charge for the swap

Oh no, the swap was done previously by the previous owner. They just helped me clean up the technical and mechanical issues and did the complete maintenance on the car as well as doing the interior and audio work.

[Sammich]

the mugen style lips look a lil outa place..the lip has more..jagged edges and the car is more curvecous(sp?) if you understand what i'm saying. but nice progress man +13

[ATK_Designs]

It doesn't look that bad in real life though. Thanks for the rep. After all, it's just a DD. As long as it's clean, I'm happy :)
