Since the wall blocks my trunk light I added LED strips to each side to add some illumination.

You know youre supposed to remove the clear part right?
I'm glad more people are getting LSDs, they make driving the cars so much better
Small update, doing a first time retrofit with an unknown set of projectors I pulled from a yard.
https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...51725731_o.jpg
i was thinking about snagging some dual projector audi heads from pick n pull.. thoughts? worth it or order just projectors online?
For jdm heads cant go wrong with either TSX or S2K projectors.
^^S2K's are pricey, but SO worth it if you're an HID fiend like myself. Their output with a clear lens is perfect. Those and LS430's, can't be beat. However, THEY ARE NOT CHEAP!
TSX's are good, TL's are worlds better (but hard to pull off cleanly), FX-R's are great, RX330's are great, especially with a curved shield mod, they're on par with the S2K's once you put a curved shield in.
However, Audi HID's probably use the Hella design like the Mercedes E55's, BMW E46's, and Evo X's (which are the newest design) and those are all great projectors too, can't go wrong with either.
If you get them from a pick-n-pull, check out the bowls, make sure they are clean, not oxidized, not scratched. All that kills output. If so, just head over to TRS and order some EVOX-R projectors if you're dead set on that style of projector, or any of the other ones they have, the Morimoto ones require little to no cutting to install. Hope this helps, good luck!
I soooo need to move already so I can do my own retrofit....
Here it is, almost done with it. Need to adjust and clean the lens. (Ignore gaps, didn't bolt in right away as I need to change a few things beforehand)

I'll do that when i go in to cut some more on the rad support, i was in a rush to get it going that night
Anyone by chance have the clips for the bulbs on the JDM headlights
What about the Mini H1's??
I know my engine bay is dirty but I finally put on the powder coated stuff spdracr did for me. New plugs and plug wires, new gaskets.
The FSM said 39 inch pounds for the valve cover bolts, my torque wrench does foot pounds, so is inch pounds is pretty much a little bit over hand tight?

I'll get a day light pic after work, my flash kinda bleached out the purple, it looks better in the day light.
Installed a ebay oval muffler on Tuesday that replaced the N1 that basically fell apart.
Then today i made a quick vid on how it sounds. In person its quieter then the N1 there's a hint of rasp at redline which i never hear under load. Overall its decently smooth and not obnoxious i can listen to my stereo now but still hear the muffler when im on the throttle..

Just ordered the speed gear and bearings ;)
^ nice Good Shit. I'm still waiting to use mine. LOL
The LSD is going to get a beating.
I mentioned the Morimoto projectors, that includes the Mini H1, they are the better of the two Morimoto projectors. Their D2S version is worlds better than a PnP kit, but they're not as bright or as sharp as the MH1's.
Yep, 39 inch pounds is 3.25 foot pounds for reference, not a whole lot of torque. I have to go really slow when I use an inch-pount torque wrench, I can miss the click and overtorque if I'm not paying attention, it's so slight and delicate.
:thumb: Can't wait!!
Not bad, but I can hear a little rasp/fart, I think, Better than stock!
congrats on joining the lsd club, I will say after my suspension the lsd was the most rewarding mod in terms of making my car fun to drive.
I lowered my car today. :)
Probably in his build thread check there you might be surprised.

Re painted and cleared...what a PITA to get the old shit off...Flexible plastic paint stripper FTW.........
http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/h...ps60a89d33.jpg
Damn, I remember when you first painted that, haha.
Looks even better now. That reminds me, I gotta find some semi-gloss black and do the calipers on the Accord soon.
Bring it out by me with a few brews and a burger ill get her all purttied up like mines....I dont park on the street no more and where im at you can park in front of me without blocking anyone else.....oooh and i can get my extension cord from my 3rd floor window to my car with a good 60ft left to work with......im proud of myself for that if you cant tell.
if you can take the calipers off the honda and drive a diff car then even better we can sit inside and do it while watching car vieos on the big screen.
Eh, maybe during the weekend I could hop out there. You in Brooklyn or Queens?
Not really a mod, but I wanted to make use of my old plate bracket from the Pontiac. Plus, make it just a little bit unique to me from all the other Accords running around.
