Thanks guys.. But I've decided on something else.. I'm not going to waste my money on any type of turbo, super charger, etc. The whole racing and car scene is just dead here. No point in making my car fast if there's no competition.

I've decided to do as follows:
Skunk 2 Pro 2 cams
Upgraded valvetrain
ITR LMA's
Minor port work on the head
Skunk 2 intake + TB (both port matched)
Will be using my RMF header
and maybe some nitrous.. but that'll do for me.

I was reading somewhere (Honda-tech it think) that you can use Prelude LMA's with a spacer and they are better b/c they are a spring type versus the hydraulic ITR ones. And they are cheaper also.

Sounds you had a lot of headches since getting car. Why your deductable so high. Usually deductables are $250 or 500. Mine 500. The last write ups you've done I can't pull up any pictures.Nice ride

It's not really headaches, but just coming to terms, if you will. To be honest, I'm kinda out of it. Maybe it's just a phase, but I guess I'm growing up?
My deductable is so high because I have full coverage, and I don't want to pay a ton a month for a 14 y/o car.

What do you mean you can't pull up any pics?

ITR LMA's have already been ordered with my buddy's super discount for Honda/Acura parts.

Just a little update..

Polished my headlights



The driver side headlight had like a gallon of water in it I had to take it out, and drill a couple holes. No more condensation, though.

Since the muffler I had ended up being a POS and rattling apart from the inside, I bought Magnaflow and welded it up. I put an RSX-S tip in it.


Finally replaced the quarter glass. It took me like a month to find it. I was able to find one on eBay for $60 shipped, then had a friend install it for the price of lunch.


And as she sits right now.

No, haven't wetsanded. I'm either going to buy a new shell, or fix this one. For now though, I'm just trying to keep it some-what presentable.
