this car? unfortunately, that's not even an accord. It's an Ascot. If you could even source the bodywork, then you could probably find a way to make it fit, but I would say stick with the engine swap. |
uhhh...ok no pic loaded...what i am talking about is taking a front nose fenders and hood with radiator from a european 98+ euro r accord
here is a link of what i am talking about http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/Front...50803613028%26 |
hmmmm.... wikipedia says that the 98 euro accords are still based on the ascot innova, which in turn is based on a CB chassis not a CD, but I say if you were already willing to drop 800 dollars on a front end, then screw it, go for it. Post a build thread.
|
now i isee what pic you posted...huh...didnt know it was an ascot...think i might still try to make it fit
|
I say do it! I'd love to see that happen to a CD chassis.
|
I know its been done on the 6th gen Accords because their body style is more similar.
It could be done, but it'd all be trial and error on your part. A lot of man hours for sure. |
that is fine by me...with a wife and 2 girls any man cave hours wrenching away is alll good with me. i will probably try it out and if it doesnt work then make it work...lol
|
Keep us informed with pics as you get her going.

I just read the running gear part of that image, I want the suspension from that ascot in my car! Full double-wishbone on front and rear!

I have seen one person successfully swap a CF4 (Accord Type R) front end. And he ended up going widebody on the car as well. https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/for...ine=1373244868 |

well i'll be darned! I guess I didn't pay enough attention under there. Can I correct my negative camber then? |
Yes you can. For the rear's get Ingall's camber arms (replaces the upper rear arm with an adjustable one). You'll have to get one for each side.

just lost my job, but that ^ will happen in the future. bong dang here i was thinking "oh macpherson struts I can't adjust camber on these without adjustable pillowball mounts"
