Cool New Member - 97 Accord

Hi all,

I used to own a Honda-lac. It was a modified custom Cadillac Catera (98), the
only one in a mostly Honda car club in TN. After years of working on their cars
and riding with them everywhere, I finally got my own Honda.

I am a big fan of sedans and love the 5th gen body style of the accord so I
got one. 270k miles and running strong.

Not a lot of aftermarket work has been done to it yet, mostly just mechanical
improvements and repairs so far; along with a few aesthetic improvements.
Going for a clean JDM look with some performance enhancements.

One of the major projects will be increasing the gear ratio as the hp/torque
improves.

Future mods:
Intake/exhaust for mid-top end performance.
Stance and wheels for handling.
Engine - Swap out to H22 or bored heads.
Final color theme - White pearl exterior/ Blue pearl interior

I will post more pics soon as parts come in and get placed.

P.S. If you have a hunting idle issue, ask me how I fixed mine before spending a dime. I wasted money on a new IACV when it was just an adjustment on the FITV.

Thanks for joining HAF.

I spend some time once in a while in the Nashville area, have in-laws that live near by...grew up in Memphis.

Going for the H and not booting the F?
