Washed mine today because it was starting to look embarrassing. Can't wait for the weekend so I can take my wife's Accord to get tinted and have an alarm/keyless entry installed.

 

washed it then looked at it and thought, let's polish it as it was due.... 3 coats of polish later (Autoglym), it came back just like from a showroom

at the same time the City Link delivered the mid and back box exhaust!!! YAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

now need to borrow my friend's ramp to finish off the exhaust job.

 

Managed to fit the back box and middle box (exhaust) had a helping hand from a friend and did it in no time.

Drives absolutely fabulous, gain back the power and really should have been done months and months ago

 

Put sheepskin seatcovers on the two front leather seats to try to keep them from getting damaged. Not 100% sold on these seatcovers but they don't look bad so I'll try them out for a while and see if I get used to them.

 

Changed the engine oil and filter. The filter was too tight, tried that chain thingy, force, etc etc to no avail.

Then the last resort, a long screw driver and the hammer, job done!

 

Put a JDM F23 in on Saturday (just bolted to the mounts) and today I put the driveshafts back in, put the exhaust back on, put the front suspension back together, put on all accessories and belts, put the radiator back in, hooked up all electrical (except for the battery), connected vacuum and coolant lines, changed the oil filter, hooked up the transmission shift cable and I'm probably missing something.

Just a few more things to install in the engine compartment (battery and cable, air filter housing, IAR), some fluids to add, put together the center console and I'm done. Then, it's hope like heck it all works. This is enough to make you crazy.

 

Replaced exhaust manifold Saturday, replaced O2 sensor yesterdat, checked for pending codes today; so far so good. Hopefully pass emmissions this evening.

 

I really wish I understood what everyone was talking about. My Accord goes vroom vroom
