    9th gen Accord

    Just been flicking through some pics/specs on the 9th gen jdm accord. Really rubs salt in the wound that we'll never get another official release. It's a good looking car, and there's a coupe version which looks awesome with some of the aftermarket stuff fitted. Almost makes you want to fork...

    Suspension opinions ?

    recently took re-ownership of my accord and before emigrating my friend decided to remove and sell the coilovers fitted and replaced with the old oem stuff. I think it's safe to ***ume they are knackered - car likes to wander and the slightest bump in the road is excruciating with the steering...

    Strange noise from steering column

    Folks - bit of an odd one Jumped in the accord for the first time this week yesterday and discovered a strange sound emanating from the steering column area (I think) when moving the key to position 2. Hard to describe, like a subtle groaning sound that lasts around 3 seconds? started the...

    It's back! But probably not for long...

    Well I didn't think I'd end up with another accord, not least the same bloomin one! Current owner is leaving for down under and has left it with me to get it shifted. It's back to stock bar the intake. It's been nice driving it again I have to say. Took a pic in the work car park today, nothing...

    Possible and strange fix to cars "pulling left" constantly

    Right this is a strange one but I know a few folks on here myself included when I had the accord report a constant and annoying pull to the left even after refreshing suspension / steering components / tyres etc and just lived with it. The current owner of my old beast, a good mate,"may" have...

    Silicone intake hose cl9 fitment

    Guys any idea if this will fit the k24 engine? I know it's listed for the 2.0 but can't find the diameter specs of the throttle. Apparently my old accord is undergoing more transformations I've looked at some pics of the oem pipes on google and they look very similar

    84-1 vsa reset procedure without HDS

    Hey folks my pal and owner of my ol type s had to replace an abs sensor and the age old 84-1 issue persists requesting the re-teach procedure to be performed. Just wondering if anyone's tried this approach in the past or if he needs to bite the bullet and fork out the fifty quid at Honda to...

    Valve clearances

    Not sure which part of the site to post this and yes I know it's not a mod but..... Bloomin heck what a difference! Had the clearances done today as I couldn't see any evidence of it being done in the past and the cars on 70k I should have done this when I bought the thing. So much smoother...

    A new sound to worry about

    So, Driving back home last night I decided to give the old girl a boot down the dual carriageway. And a new noise has presented itself in the form of a chattering sound coming from the near side front at the last 1000 revs. It's not doing it constantly I.e every time you floor it. It almost...

    Supercharger conversion

    Strange sound effects

    I took my car out for a pointless drive tonight (honeymoon period) and it's now begun to produce a strange whining noise. Thought at first it was the gearbox then realised that if I dipped the clutch there was no change. From stationary to low speed it dulls down to a grumble which got me...

    Stereo death

    Ok folks I've recently got my type s and part of the price "negotiation" was the fact the stereo has recently died. The chap had his mechanic check the fuses but no joy so a replacement is needed. It's a 2005 2.4 type s and Im just wondering which unit part number is correct. I've seen a few of...
