Well, this is my first foray into the world of Honda so here I am. I just got a 1994 Honda Accord 2 door EX today as a project car. It has 229k miles (I know) and its in... rough shape. Needs a lot of cosmetic work to get it where I want it. Anyways, previous owner has some ugly wheels on it (I don't like them) as well a nice sounding custom exhaust.

It does have its issues tho: Has the infamous key stuck in the ignition, previous owners really messed up the interior, and the font bumper needs to be replaced. The trunk also does not latch for some reason. Anyway those are my priority fixes.

I'll leave some pics here for you guys to see. Thanks for having me as a part of the group. Feel free to post any suggestions for me haha. I'm not turning this car into a "tuner" but I am into the stance scene so I have some cool plans for this!

 

Thanks for joining HAF.

The 5th gen (94-97) Accords are at the top of my list - the thing is just a solid, well built car.

Looks like an auto trans (can see one of the shift solenoids?) - be sure the shift cable is adjusted properly - if the car thinks it is in R and not P the key will not come out????

 

Thanks man! Yeah I always liked how they looked. Also, the car does seem to know it's in park, but I'll have to look closer. I've just seen that issue is common on other Accords, Civics etc. I also think that my alternator is going out. When the car is idle, every 2-3 minutes the rpm will drop real quick and go back up, and the lights will dim for a split second. Looks like fixing that just came to the top of the list.
