Hey thanks man,all I have to do is talk the misses into more money,lol But they look good for sure.
I am in NC and the weather here is HOT,and the car has(had)no A/C and the rear drivers side tire was making a sound? Went to the local place here and was told the rear tires belt had separated(a relief,I thought it was the wheel bearings)So I needed a new $80 tire and the A/C needed switched over to the new system(not a relief) and that would be $200...Long story short,went home,called for another estimate and a local shop still had a supply of the old R-12 (I thought it was illegal???),ran some stop leak through it in case it had a leak and recharged it for $60 And wally world had a tire for $60 mounted and balanced...So my initial $280 heart attack was a mere $120...Life is good.

 

service manual says to use SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 API service, SF or SG grade motor oil for the 5 spd manual

i had no idea some manual shift transmissions used motor oil in their gear box until i found out recently in school at UTI lol..

 

What part of NC....I happen to be there as well.....I'd think and save towards the 134 conversion (won't be as cold IMO) but at least the "gas" will be around for a while.

TEK-I know my 3rd gens take 10-40 in the manual trans ("according to the manual).....I think Honda "upgraded" to a syn oil......so today they will tell you to use Honda MTF....but I still use 10-40 in the 3rd gens.

 

OMG This car is in great shape, because the owner didn't go around changing stuff. Please don't screw it up. I had a 92 EX sedan that same color, and I still miss that car. They don't make them like that anymore, so I say keep it stock, and keep up the maintenance. A good detergent gasoline should be all you need (no seafoam) IMO.

 

Hey thanks,after much reading on here and "bobistheoilguy" I have decided to go with Pennzoil Platinum or Valvoline Syn with a shot or 3 of MMO,but no seafoam.
I am not gonna change anything like that,just kinda thinking out-loud I guess?I would like to change a few things but mostly cosmetic.I would love to locate some factory Honda rims,not necessarily for this year,or an accord,just some that will fit.

 

I would try to find some Honda wheels, some that are sure to fit right. The 93 EX wheels would be a good choice, IMO. Here's a picture of them.

 

Im in Hickory man,and the car came from a fellow in Boone.

 

See,those are nice.
Not sure why exactly but I have always preferred "factory clean"look over any mods,even with my motorcycles.I went and bought some wally-world covers that believe it or not don't look bad considering...But I want to get a set of rims similar to those.
Quick question,I know I need 14'' 4 lug rims,but anything over that I need to know to make sure they fit? (new covers below)....

 

The alloy wheels pictured above are 15", and they use 195/60/15 size tires. Here's a picture of the wheels that were on my 92 EX (also 15"). I like these too, but they are harder to clean (lot of small holes ).

 

You rockin' the le'bra man???
