Accord Euro-R CL7 maintenance..

[chris2000]

if someone can organise a sepang trackday for all CL7 that would be fun...

Hi guys,

organizing a closed track day is very expensive and you need many cl7 owners to go...

anyway, if u guys wanna go for a closed track that is much safer than the open track days, there is one coming up on 23rd november. 9am-12pm limited to 40 cars only. price rm400. if interested let me know.

Anyone who owns a CL7R that came with the touch screen Navi system that have successfully converted it to local usage [ FM radio, TV, DVD, reverse camera screen + GPS map and still retain the aircond controls ]?

..... and no, I do not own one, just interested to learn about it!

Actually mine is came with Navi, FM - as usual up to 90.00 only, TV - received some channel but only the sound instead of picture -.-", DVD - it has a DVD Rom and PC card adapter but only for Map Data (GPS), Reverse camera - the japan fellow already installed it and its display on the original screen ... BTW, I also look for some opinion about these problem ...

 

[EGK20A]

Oh no. Even until now this problem have yet to be resolved [ after years of having CL7R units imported to our shores? ]?

Let me think a bit.....

FM - wise, I think you need what they call as a modulator, seems that this stuff will somewhat extend your FM range.

The TV problem, I am not sure. Maybe there's something like modulator for the TV too [ previously drove a JDM Harrier last year for delivering stuffs, I can watch local tv channels whilst driving and when I'm parked too, although of course, you only get best display and it was pretty clear because owner installed the aerial as well, when you've stopped somewhere ]?

DVD ROM - meaning u watch DVD? Pirate DVD can play meh, because I read around that you can only play DVDs for Jap region [ not sure which region number ]? If you do, can u watch DVD whilst the car is being driven [ read around that u can't play DVD once the car is being driven, something like a safety feature ] as well?

If the previous Jap owner already installed a reverse cam, most probably the AUX plug at the back of the Navi have been used up [ I am not entirely sure about this because there is a AUX button right at the RHD side of the Navi screen right? ]. If this is true [ and if there's only one AUX inlet for the Navi ], then you might not be able to use the screen if you've installed a CD / DVD HU receiver unit.

What I'm thinking is, if, and only if it's doable :
- install a FM / CD / DVD head unit only [ the ones without screen, 1 DiN ones to the large compartment right below the Navi ], then plug it to the Navi's AUX. If the HU unit can install reverse cam, and pushes the reverse cam display thru the HU's AUX cable to the Navi, then you've already shoot down two birds with one stone. Easy peasy. If, and only if, the HU can also install GPS, then kill three birds with one stone oledy!

But the other prob that will surface is aircond control, since you've already tasked the navi screen for FM, CD , DVD, reverse cam and GPS. So, unless there's a safe mod available than can help u use the navi screen for all that and still do not distrupt the aircond controls on the Navi [ since the Navi is a touch screen unit ], you lose out on the air cond controls. Paiseh paiseh.....

Right now does your Navi unit also able to show GPS map live tracking?

The Navi screen might also be tasked for HKS CAMP2 display [ wooh... no need Mugen Assist Meter cluster on top, can keep track of almost everything like rad temp, engine oil temp, fuel pressure, the works! ]. Safer because thieves cannot see that u got external meters and u can still keep track of your car's parameters! :D

What the fuck. I called DMG, they say they have NO cars at all.

Called Rahman Brothers, I was given the runaround, pass here, pass there, give me a salesman number, but he switched off his phone when I heard it was still ringing.

So hard for potential customers to check what spec u have in hand meh? If it's gonna be this hard to even ask what spec they have [ if any ] in hand, I'd rather keep my Egg.

Ah, only Mutiara JB got stock mehhh.... I was told they have 3 in hand, one 2006, one 2004, another one I didn't bother to know what year, shhheeeesh! 2004, white, keyless entry, FM radio [ phew ], and Mugen front bumper [ hhhmmm they know their stuffs meh? ]..... but it's at JayBee! So far away from K.L. But at least the lady who explained to me what stock they had was kind enough though to explain and summore joked with me : dtg sini bawak duit, documents, naik bas, balik K.L dgn Euro R! Cheh! At least there's a light at the end of the tunnel.....

[siauann]

Dear Sifus, I'm looking to get a CL7 (auto) not euro-r. Anything I should look out for in terms of problems?? Got one 70,000KM ++ going for sale.

wanna ask sifu here....CL7 and CL7R both are equip with K20A 2.0 litre i-vtec engine? only CL7R are with 6speed manual tranny? all CL7 are auto? in terms of bhp both CL7 and CL7R are the same? thanks for clarifications.

 

[EGK20A]

I know la it's your home..... Two Euro R weh. You make me jeles, I give u back door u loan me one CL7R ride can ah? I didn't had the time to ask her name, the call got cut off. But she was very kind lah, summore lawaks with me. Voice sounds nice, sweet summore make me tergoda on da phone, wonder if the person is *nice* enough. 32B 27 34 nice enough kot. :D

It is highly possible for me to buy one, as soon as I sell off my Egg [ which may take time, someone wants it, but wants disount but don't understand the car's setup, the type of oils i use for engine, gb and brakes etc, why la i put itr steering rack + subframe + front arb etc ], but the main issue is going there. I need to bring my dad or mum with me, 'cause the bank statement that i'm gonna use is under their names. Or can I ask them to fax the grant copy etc so I can process the loan myself here, 'cause the Ambank car loan big boss is my dad's kwn lol, he told me sure as hell can help wan [ as long as my old man agree lah ].

Jgn bro, nanti air len lak meleleh. Hahahah, damnit! Inspiration, in a certain way. Also when I saw all these SG CL7R's going around SIC, I was like... fark, bad lines, dunno how to heel and toe, bag shifting style still can do under 2.43 @ SIC. Gile beb, last time 2 years ago++ I go SIC oso kenot reach that time [ but that time B16A only and no LSD wooh ].

Imagine that, large enough for 5 persons, or 4 adults, enough space for luggage, exclusive [ not so many compared to other marques or models for that matter ], 6 speed manual and can still go SIC on Sundays and perform admirably for such a huge car.

that picture really gave high impact to you ar bro hahahah

So, any CL7R owners have SUCCESSFULLY converted the Navi oledi?

---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

I ain't a sifu, but I'll help with my limited knowledge.

CL7R is equipped with similar K20A in EP3 and DC5R [ the ones bfr facelifted ones, i.e not the same with the FD2R, because the K20A in facelifted DC5R got diff engine oil pump, others I am not so sure ]. CL7R only comes in 6 speed manual gearbox with a helical LSD [ which is so almost impossible to detect, but confirmed all Type R's since the birth of DC2R '96 and beyond, all R's get helical LSD, I think 1 way kot, this I am not sure ]. The original Type R, NSX-R '92, was a real crazy racer for the road, oso the ITR '96 [ the OTHER ITR '96 spec came with no aircond, no radio, thin 1 layer glass all around the car, no sound deadening at all, side mirror kenot auto - flip etc ].

BHP - wise, of course CL7R wins, 220 bhp at the engine / crank.

thanks for much for ur info..
so the normal CL7 is not K20A?

 

[EGK20A]

CL7 do come with K20A to, but I presume it's the same K20A like FD2 K20A. Whilst CL7R came with, I presume, the same K20A that came with EP3 Type R and DC5 Type R.

The K20A that now resides in the current FD2 Type R, is a different story altogether. Same engine code, but got something different. What I know is the engine oil pump, the rest, not sure.

Honda have this way of naming engine blocks, always same number code but then , diff chassis get different internals in the engine.

Example : Integra DC2 GSR oso get B18C. But Integra DC2 + DB8 Type R oso got an engine with the same code, B18C. But the whole internal of the block is so much different compared to the B18C that came with Integra DC2 GSR. I hope u can understand my lauyah - ish explanation.

thanks for much for ur info..

[siauann]

thanks for the info...i thought FD2 is K20Z? no ka? or im wrong

 

[bien335]

Yasir, that's the reason why export motors have the numerical suffix, eg: B18C1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 bla bla bla

for JDM motors, it's strictly engine code (alphabet) and displacement (numeric) and type (alphabet)

 

[Vagabond]

If not mistaken, the FD2R K20A and the DC5/EP3 K20A is similar.

the differences would be:

a) FD2R's have different intake manifolds
b) Drive by Wire
c) higher compression pistons 0.2 or 0.5pts or something like that.
