CB7 Speed Ventures – 1990 Honda Accord autox autocross f22a1 SOHC 08/16/09
9 Comments | Posted by admin in Autocross
Time: 42.95 sec. First time at an auto cross. Did pretty well considering I only have about 110-115whp and same on torque. Original engine with 271581 miles on it. Just intake, headers and exhaust. Except for a couple of civics everyone had more HP than I did. The fastest cars of the day were running between 38 – 41 sec. Driving was difficult with the stock steering (3.2 lock to lock) and lack of power. Also my tach was not working.

Also I had to roll the fenders and hammer them out about 1/2 an inch so that the rear tires would fit.

I got my coilovers from ebay. Tokiko struts and Skunk2 coilover kit (made my own aluminum sleeve insert instead of using the supplied ruber inserts for a much more solid feel)

It’s from a 90-92 Nissan Stanza. It’s was pretty easy to install. You have to drill holes to match the lip spoilers built in bolts. And make sure to seal the holes so it does not rust .

Haha, yeah right, I wasn’t really keeping track but I think my best time was 42.2xx. I saw a couple of your videos but didn’t get the whole story… next time you see me/I see you we should talk, I wanted to get out and chat with people but I was too busy running back and forth between the Auto-X and the Roval (my friend was running that day I was trying to help him out). There’s no reason FD’s should be a sad story

Thanks, nice FD.
I think you were doing 40or 39 right? Funny I also own a FD. Check out my other videos. It’s a sad story. I still have it but it’s been parked in my garage for a while.

Wow, that is a really good time considering the power level. Good driving brother. I was the guy in the silver Rx-7 that same day. I think I went right before you in this video, in fact
