hey new car!

Hey everyone my name is Mario and im new to this Forum.
I just baught a 93 accord ex-r 2 door coupe, black, 5speed! Its a really nice car and it is in Kilometers. It has 200,000 kilometers which is around 130,000 miles. Body is in good condition. What are some cheap mods i can do to it? I already ordered JDM headers. Do u think they will fit in without a problem?

Thumbs up Re: hey new car!

First off if you're in Canada theres another guy with $28 headers and shipping from USA at $40,and hes a fast shipper.

OR ceramic for $56,same guy,
http://cgi.ebay.ca/JDM-90-91-92-93-H...QQcmdZViewItem
Secondly get the ceramic coated cause the stainless goes a weird motly bluish color. My 2 cents worth.Anyhoo major improvement in looks either way.

DC-S/JDM, not a lot of difference, and no real problem installing.An angle grinder/cutter is handy to cut downpipe below oilpan to get old header out easier.(didn't feel like fighting with bolts)
Same with any rusted bolts....grind off.Discard the heat shield without worry.

Hi-flow cats are $12.

Theres a stainless full cat-back exhaust for excellent price here, and real cool sound for $95.A MUST for Canadian winters lol

As it comes from Japan expect a wait of 4 weeks.
Either way have fun with your project.....and you will, cause its a Honda .

My specs:
'91 Accord 4 door LX (wish it were EXR 2 door,but price, and availabilty was right,$900)
DC-S Stainless headers
Hi-Flow cat.
Tenrai Stainless catback exhaust.
Ally rims on Predator RS tires.
Altezza Tailights
Stubby black antenna
JVC CD stereo
Future ?? New paint since I installed new Quarter-panels.
Thats my cheap route,heh.

Re: hey new car!

Do you have any experience with that guy selling those headers, because for that price, I'd be seriously expecting some fitment issues or something.

Also, you can get an intake cheap on ebay.
