I actually had some from the fogs in my old isuzu. But the ballasts went out during testing. I'll just have to get a new set.

that looks dope.. its funny how the HID 3k aren't actually yellow but greenish like that, but the car is green too so it works. u run 35w or 55w ballasts?
When they first come on they are green, but go more towards yellow after warming up. The fogs will be 35watt. My low beams are 55watt 6k and high beams are 35watt 3k
yeah i had 6K 9006 in my lows and 3K 9005 in my highs on my cb7. no fogs tho i could nvr find a decent pair. some ppl hook up their high beams as DRLs, u plannin on doing that?
I've seen the drl mods but I dont like the look of lights on in the daytime so i'm gonna leave that one alone.
yeah everybody has diff. taste.. to each his own i guess. lol what do u think about the JDM foglight upgrade for the rear bumper?
I like the bumper mounted rear fogs, but wouldn't put one on my car. They're priced kinda high but not as bad as others. I REALLY like the intersection lights for the front bumper, but I think they'd make the front end to busy. I might run them if I got new fenders and ran without the sidemarkers.
Only other thing I'd like to get for the outside is a 92-93 coupe trunk (spoilerless, been keeping an eye out at the junkyards for them, but most have spoilers) and the flushy spoiler. I'd like to get my hands on some one piece headlights as well, but only if I found a really good deal on them. I think $300-400 for used lights with plastic lenses is rediculous.
yeah the rear foglight is def. pricey. as for the jdm intersection lights, those are pretty damn rare too but they look brilliant on these 4th gens. BUT it might get a lil busy cuz u got the foglights in the front bumper too. overall ur right tho, the intersection lights would probably make for one too many lights on the front bumper since u already have signals, foglights and parking lights by the headlights up there. the fender side markers look great, i'd say keep them and forget intersection lights for now even tho they're sick.
are u talking about the LED flush spoiler or a nice lip style spoiler (which would complement the body lines of these 4th gens.)
oem flushmount, like this one

yeah..those. they look way better than the stock LED spoilers. lol @ da lic. plate on that cb7 :lmao:
just a slight update as I've started collecting parts for my swap. Tried to oder my engine this past monday but they were out of stock so I'm gonna try again this coming monday. After thats ordered, all I need is a ps line, a little bit of wire, some ecu pins, a clutch, and some gaskets and it'll be go time.

That stuff looks purty nice. I luv getting stuff delivered like this. It's makes ya feel like a kid again at Christmas and parents bought you everything you asked for.
i like that flywheel..what brand is it?
and whats da word on ur motor? jdm h22 or f22 turbo set-up.. :shock: lol
The flywheel is a fidanza. The motor is going to be a Jdm h22a with limited slip short gear trans. I actually got it ordered a few days ago but it'll be about a month before it gets here.
Nice Job Ethan, nothing but the best you can get even if you must wait for it, and there's nothing I hate worse is waiting for parts.
no kidding. I could have gotten my motor months ago for half the price I paid for the set but I bought from a reputable company with lots of good reviews. unbelievable customer service to, every time I called I talked to the same person and after the first two times they knew me by my first name. But everything has been worth the wait so far. Nothing on the car is cheap and it shows when you drive it.
Kteller 2.25 stainless exhaust. Super nice kit.

Also the Percy's header gasket since it seems people have a bad time with eBay gaskets sealing

Also picked up a prelude ps pump and high pressure line so I can keep my ps with the swap.

I have a spec stage 2 clutch on the way and my engine and trans should be arriving any day now. All I really need is about $150 in gaskets and a bit more for fluids and shit and we can get the ball rolling. Can't wait to drive it again.
The new engine is finally here. I think it was sometime last week it came but so far I have the timing belt, water pump, and manual tensioner done. I also drilled and tapped the trans for the accord mount, and installed the new clutch and flywheel. The harness is about half way done. I have a few gaskets to do and have a power steering hose made and we should be dropping it in.

looks dope man. did u use the manual tensioner from a h23? and are u running an ATTS tranny or just the base 5 spd? cornering and driving on winding roads is so dope with a SH tranny. :grin:
and that h22 looks dope.. reminds me of the one I had in my last prelude.
The manual tensioner I bought from Kaizen speed. The transmission is from an sir-t accord. Short gear and limited slip.
yeah, thats the tranny from the bluetop f20b motor.. that tranny can take more HP than that h22 can put out stock. u have plans for boost in the future?
not really. I have the old f series really all it needs is a head rebuild. I've thought about building it for boost but that's not gonna be anytime soon.
I had a buddy of mine pickup my power steering line today while I was at work. The shop did an awesome job on it and they told my friend that I'd go through 6 or 7 power steering pumps before I ever had to replace the hose.

Also have the trans back on, a/c compressor on, valve cover tightened down, and the engine part of the harness is done. I need to swap some pulleys around and find an oil pressure sensor and I can drop it in.
