Updates on my car - 02 turbo accord

[retroshark]

some of you, probably one or two people, will know who i am, but im back in atlanta after being out of state for 3 years... car was down for like 8 months in need of an overhaul, which it got.

redid most my wiring for the engine, installed new clutch, polished some stuff, repainted a few things here and there, replaced master cyl, slave cyl and clutch line. a few other little bits and pieces, but nothing crazy. cars running fabulously, and im looking forward to dyno time and tuning in the near future...

anyway, just cause i took some photos of it tonight, i will let yall take a look and see what you think. if i can find a complete mod list, ill post it, but otherwise, just ask if youve got any questions.

enjoy -

Dude welcome back.

Cars looking really good. I would have wanted to play around with your car...Too bad my car is back to stock.

[scttydb411]

looks good. believe it or not, that foam cover on your turbo outlet is very restrictive...not enough surface area to pull air through.

[retroshark]

up, i do believe it. its just temporary until i find something that i can use in a similar fashion, but is sturdy enough to not get sucked in. i was thinking of getting a simple kitchen sieve, and cutting the mesh and setting it up the same way. that or a tea strainer. im not so worried about tiny dust particles, but rather the larger ones that could cause problems.

i know most likely, people will say im better off with a good air filter, but i kinda dont wanna run one. got any suggestions for me?

im planning on brining the car to you guys in the near future anyway, so any suggestions as to what i can do to get it in tip top shape, prior to any tuning, would be much appreciated, since ive been out of the scene for nearly 2 years now.

[scttydb411]

if you're not too worried about dust and just larger particles then i would just get some metal screen from home depot and a hose clamp. make sure the screed is metal and not nylon...nylon wouldn't be good.

[retroshark]

yea, i was actually thinking either home depot metal screen, or, going to publix/kroger and getting like some kinda tea strainer, seive, or the likes. i guess it just depends which one has a finer mesh, and will keep the most crap outta the engine.

[MongolPup]

Specs on turbo?

[retroshark]

its a t3 super 60... nothin special... pretty run of the mill. when i got it, it had been rebuilt, and has no shaft play, other than a little forwards and backwards play, maybe a mm or two, which as far as i know, is normal.

[cactusEG]

Damn how could i of missed this thread ! !

[retroshark]

idk man, but im glad to have you in here LOL

Looks clean very nice....just clean up and spice that engine bay up a little bit :goodjob:

[WTF?]

nice car and nice set up how much psi you running and how much power do you think its putting out?

[Franco Tirador]

nice accord, those 98-02 have so much room between the engine and the radiator the only thing you can think of its a turbo, i love your car, i want one but its hard to find a manual one, it seems like they made 98% of them automatic, but i am at the point where i might just get a beat up one with like a million miles build the engine and convert it to manual, im an accord man, and i love the way these cars look on full coilover suspension,

nice accord dude
