Love you bro. I look forward to all your videos. Tired of the "rich kid" videos that build cars we could never afford. Your series makes it feel like you are my friend, my neighbor, or a car meet buddy. Never stop being you, and never let the money change you. Love you man
I appreciate the support!
with 700k the money will be coming in pretty soon
especially rn ads are paying really good
That may be true but there’s a thing called natural progression. I’d be happy to see him get into something nicer, he deserves it. I don’t think he’ll be building shit boxes forever.
Take the words out of my mouth. Caleb really feels like your best mate that want to build affordable cars fast and cool🫡
@_Gingium_ I feel like we've been friends since high-school 😂 love the content and seeing where you are going in life bro!
Time to make the accord awd
SH-AWD swapped accord? Using the TL and accord crosstour parts?
The hardest thing to find would be a 6speed awd transmission from like a Aussie/JDM model if it was ever available.
S1 built has a kit now!!!
Honestly? Nah. He could buy a Taurus and have a 380hp awd turbo V6. FWD is more fun, if he wants fast the Volvo is still around
@@zacharykelly7434 i would love to see a police interceptor awd 3.5 ecoboost build, but gingium also gets a taurus platinum interior in it just to be comfortable. 2 auction vehicles into one?
@@MrP1NEAPPLE I'd just go SHO personally, tho it would be kinda neat to build one from a base model
04-06 acura tl 6 speed tranmissions come with an LSD and bolt right up to the j30. Consider this for an upgrade will make a big difference
had an 06 with the 6mt as my first car bro, perfect
Im tryna fo manual rn i can get the 04-06 6 spd and itll bolt up to the J30A1?

@@Fazorplaysbecause if u do the math, someone who’s making 100-200k+ (from just YT not including any other income streams) does not need your patron sub unless they are a horrible spender. In other words, ur getting scammed
The straightforward approach, with no bs, no trap music over slow mo drone videos of the car, the work that it takes to make it happen with no non sense. It's absolutely great. Love your stuff, and the car is turning out sweet. Don't change dude, really cool stuff.
Man I love this car, it is so simple and clean.
I think the grip is definitely holding this car back you can hear those tires spinning all the way through. Awesome build tho looks very clean.
It most def is. I get about the same times with my stock wrx that makes like 230whp because it can put all that power down and has super short gearing
In my view - 3 most underrated mods for any car: (1) LSD (2) Uprated clutch (3) Uprated engine mounts. No matter the car and whilst not "power mods" will change any car you put them. Would love to see the LSD on this thing. Great video's by the way - enjoying tuning in from the UK 👍
Yeah I think an upgraded clutch is an easy win for a trackable daily. He has done it on nearly every other car so makes you wonder
What exactly is A LSD? and what doesnit do after changing it to lsd? I know its a limited slip differential just mot sure what the improvement on adding it would be
@@Mizsteakz An LSD connects both the front wheels when flooring it, giving the car much more grip.
Honestly yeah I feel like an LSD would take off at least half a second on his 0-60 with both wheels putting power down, might be the next mod he really needs to do. Not to mention it would probably make the launch much more consistent
@@Mizsteakz I think a few others have said it, but on a FWD car it will reduce torque steer and improve 0-60 massive. On a rear wheel drive car, it does much the same but stabilises the rear so much more. Confidence will improve greatly. On a FWD car of anything over 300bhp, really needs one - otherwise you'll be getting 1/4 mile times less then a RWD car with half the horsepower.
I had an 06 I believe it was. It had the 3.0 v6 with a 6 speed manual. An unbelievably fun car. Ran awesome stock. Wish I never got rid of it.
Same. I put mine through hell too and a new clutch at 190,000 miles was the only major part that needed replaced. I sold it with 210,000 miles and I still see the kid I sold it to a few years ago ripping it around town.
I used to take it camping a lot in the national forest by me and people couldn't believe some of the places I got that car to go.
Had an 05 and bought it with 600k miles replaced lower ball joints and a new rad and thermostat and drove the hell out it with no issues until it developed rod knock due to I assume the age and lack of oil changes by the previous owner I still miss it
Personally, I think you're going about trying to justify the total invested cost all wrong. IMO, the trick is to just NEVER do the math, then you never feel bad about spending more in mods than the car originally cost! If you do end up doing the math though, the trick is to compare it to more expensive hobbies. For example, when I felt bad about spending as much as I did on the wheels on my Fit, I told myself, "This is still cheaper than owning a horse" and didn't feel so guilty :)
Great vid BTW, would love to see the accord at a prepped track someday
Hobbyists spend way more for things they hold with one hand lol
and it be cheaper if you didnt run so much fluff
It's always worth doing the math. Value is subjective so even if he spent more than the car is worth it can still be worth it to him. But he should keep track of the spend and manage costs. Not doing so is a great way to go broke. When I look back at what I spent on cars/bikes I regret a lot of it. It's def worth interrogating every purchase and having some kind of long term plan, with flexibility to pivot when you change your mind and want to move on.
Yea bro i always use that horse excuse too, always works ✅✅
only issue is being into cars, whether its for tuning or just visual mods, its prob one of the most expensive normal hobbies a guy can have. I cant wait til I have enough money to ACTUALLY do half the shit I want to 😂😂
Loved the build breakdown! Keep keeping it real.
I've said it before, but ny favorite part of every Sunday is watching gingium after I get out of the shower lol. Legit the only content creator that I feel is worth the Patreon subscription 👍
I just bought this car myself for $300 off my relative and horrible condition. I love this series cause now I can have step-by-step guide on everything I wanna do it.
3200 lbs with a full interior and all the add-ons isn not bad at all! This is a great setup.
I had one of these back in 2004. A common mod back then was to throw the manual CL type s LSD in them. Made a huge difference in traction.
You need a tire that has some sidewall, it needs to flex and stiffening the rear suspension helps too.
This was a great journey. From all the broke Accord boys we say thank you for taking us along for the ride.
I just came from an Auto Zone 2004 commercial to this amazing Accord V6 video. god bless you bud!
For all the young car guys/gals watching, $25k sounds insane. BUT, if you're building a car you love then you'll be doing this over years time. The time spent wrenching on the car builds a bond that you cannot buy off the lot.
I still believe that these tires are not good enough. I'd go with something between Continental ContiSportContact 7 and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
Yes, he needs a good quality tire with an actually expensive engineered compound, not just "200 treadwear" chinese pos tires. I don't think he realizes how big of a difference good tires make.
I get that they were a sponsor and all, but those tires aren't connecting for anything. If you saw the tread from the last video, there were huge channels and would equate to only half tread on the ground of the full width...
Lol. No.

@@BrodeyDoverosxAD09 is probably the nicest 200tw street tire
Nah bro he needs some mickey Thomson ET streets or Nitto NT01s or Mabel NT05R, or Toyo R888R
this man is the definition of built>bought, protect him at all cost
Hey! Starting with the bad - my head is like a balloon listening to that background music. It's not the style really but the volume.
The good - in my many years on YT I've never seen better series for 7th Gen Accord, and also, never seen a better made video like you do. It's not boring, it's quite opposite, the camera is amazing!, the story and everything, your skills are outstanding, top notch!
You should put a Quaife ATB in that, it not only helps you put the traction down when you accelerate but has the same effect on the front brakes, you can feel it share the load when one wheel tries to stop all the braking transfers to the other wheel with grip before the ABS kicks in, the steering wheel gives a little kick to let you know what is going on. I have had one in my Golf for 15 years.
Please more races! And aome dragy data, 60-100 and 60-130, wish you were closer so we could race!
What an amazing video and car, Caleb. Great work as always. Was a treat to watch the process.
Appreciate this vid man! Loved this whole journey being a Honda accord owner
What a journey 👍🏻 thanks for sharing 👊🏻❤
Top job as always
Enjoyed this series. I'm glad the algorithm suggested your channel!
Excellent job with this 7th gen man! Was fun to watch
This is a awesome build. I am in the process of building the fastest hyundai sonata turbo 2.0l. Thanks for making this build because it shows everyone that anything is possible.
You did a good job man ❤ get some Sam’s wax works grate
Can't wait to go back and watch this build. I had this car v6 in auto and could tell it had decent bones to do a build and just have fun with
The car is sick the only thing I’d change/do is black out the intercooler to make it more of a sleeper. Other then that it’s sick
Love this body style so glad someone showed it some love
What words both starts with G ...? Gingium and GOAT🐐 Thanks for the content and your progression is inspiring!!
Hey man! Just moved to GA and I gotta say I absolutely love the builds. If you ever need a spare set of hands for anything just lmk. I get bored when I’m not at the shop 😂
The production on this video is incredible, not to mention the car. Perfect OEM ++ build. Only thing I would do is an even higher end SQ sound system because thats just my thing.
This was a nice series to watch. The car turned out great!!
My F150 stock ran 0-60 in the 6-7 second range, with a whipple it does it in the 3.6-3.7 now.
Traction and HP does wonders
@@_Gingium_you gained a vehicle that now makes passing much more fun. It runs in 4th gear how it felt NA in 2nd gear.
@@RadDadisRadthat’s why his results seem disappointing, the car will be an animal from a roll. They’re quick cars stock from a roll. Now it’ll probably give a new mustang gt a run from a roll
@@mogulme6190 yeah roll racing on the highway this thing will be a beast v6 hondas and acuras have good top ends just actually need traction to show it lol
I used to drive my 03 accord v6 coupe like a manual using the automatic from d1 and up with 93 octane and when it was in great working order it impressed me to 60
that j30 screaming!! love the j series so slept on love my 6speed j32 tl love the videos bro !!!!
This thing sounds so good 🔥
I absolutely agree (when it’s in boost)
Bro tryina go 0-60 in sub 5 seconds by doin a burnout 😂
Been loving this whole series so far! As a previous owner of a black "6-6" accord coupe (mine was a 9th gen), It was fun to see the possibilities of these cars have performance wise and also being a fun comfortable daily that's still reliable. Makes me miss mine a lot tbh as it was so fun to drive despite the platform's limitations with traction and whatnot. Not to mention seeing how many people slept on it and were shocked when their "real" sports car wasn't pulling away or even getting gapped by it made it even more fun lol
damn did u sell it? those are pretty rare, especially in good condition. Those things can move for sure and that j35 sounds so good bouncing off the limiter
BROTHEEER!!! So glad to finally see you over 700k 🎉🎉🎉❤
4:24 ❤❤❤❤❤❤ best sound
Loving this breakdown of the costs, ty for the video
That thing definitely makes some steam! With better traction the times would be dramatically better. The price is a little spicy, but all things considered, it's a great deal for the performance.
Tread wear ratings dont mean much unless youre comparing a 200tw to a 300tw from the same brand. A 200tw michelin might be significantly soffter than a 200tw bridgestone. There isnt a real standard
Interesting, I didn’t know that!
Yeah its the tires for sure. I wore my rt660s into the ground before replacing with these "Armstrong" tires and they are garbage. Much worse even than the heat cycled nearly bald 660s.
this has got to be one of my favorite builds since the FC or the original rally miata
Love my 2005 6-6. Wish I could put a turbo in mine. Nice work dude.
Swap the intake manifold and throttlebody to a j37 .it’s magnesium and adds about 15 hp
I went with the j37 manifold with a tundra 5.7L throttle body. Perfect match.
I appreciate you sharing the missed shift.
This is dope man good work 🤘🏼
Stiffer motor mounts also help. Have a mazdaspeed 3 and stiffer mounts def help a big.
I have a Z32 that I picked up ages ago, not running. It's still "napping" but you give me hope/ inspiration. That thing with 400whp would be bonkers and not really that much $$$.
For 25K you can have st like Lexus ISF, but hey its about the journey and making your own car.
It's not what you can buy but what you build
@@redlight3932 Isnt that what I just said ?
@@Fanati_XX Lmaoo bro missed your whole point
2nd gear said "no man.... no sir.... stop that sh&t now 😂😂. I love it lol.
You're weld and fab skills are top tier!!!! 👍🏾👍🏾
I own an holden commodore same year as your mates but wagon watching you pull on him shocked me!
That turbo sounds awesome
No one in these replies understands why their RWD cars are doing better 0-60 times than a highly modded FWD car without proper supporting mods lmao
Weight transfer
At 400hp and front wheel drive, "supporting mods" would be installing a driveshaft and getting power to the rear wheels as well
Too complicated, naw.
@@somedude2492he just needs an lsd
Yea, our boosted J’s are a pain to get traction. The best 1/4 time on the draggy was a 12.8 and 112 on Toyo RR at 10psi. I’ve broken 3-4 gear like 8x now. Since I’ve up the boost, I’ve put in synchrotech synchros, 3-4 straight cut gears, and 6th gear cuff.. with a Spec 2+ clutch kit and flywheel setup. It drives great now even with double the boost. When I was n/a with fbo in my j35 98 accord sedan I’ve managed a 13.3@108 on street tires.
But your car looks and sounds very good. The turbo setup looks way better than my 1 week turbo kit build lol.
Love this build! Thank you for doing a series with a V6 honda
Try launching it in second on the street. I could get my best times in my supercharged type r with a second gear launch. I would have to launch about 5000 in second.
I do love the build. It is super cool.
Supercharged type r?! Any footage that sounds cool as shit!
All you need now is an LSD and better tires and it will be a top tier build.
Interstate pulls would be a blast 😊
Great video! Crazy how fast things add up! Should make for a fun car on the street!
Very fun build to watch. Great work!
Hi Caleb! Thanks for sharing this build, I love the Accord coupé! Aside from the acceleration, how does the car feel in a nice bendy road? The suspensions seem to improve the experience and perhaps make the upgraded brakes more useful. I would love to know how overall the ride has improved thanks to the engine and chassis upgrades.
Thanks!
Consider a Projector retrofit for your headlights. Morimoto Mini D2S 5.0 are a game changer for lighting up the road
Honda Fam lets go❤ Love the car and trust me as it sits. That runs 10s dude with the right setup. 🍻 No need to add more power just fueling and tires. Run it
Need so much more Honda content like this. 👍
Awesome build, I grew up with these cars
Thanks for giving the best gen accord justice 👍
Great video series! We all wanted to see an LSD :( . It would be interesting to know what an estimated cost would be for zero visual upgrades, but all the go fast goodies done at a shop.
Honestly the turbo and the blow off sound soooooo good
Intake sounds sick!
Don’t worry about the cost bro. Anyone can get a cheap 335i and put bus lengths on most cars. But this car is unique!
Needs Lsd with drag slicks. Or AWD with sticky tires. Doesn't hook. It's easily a 10 sec car with the right setup. There are light stock drag cars with just weight reduction and stock motor running race fuel in high 10's 1/4 mile. Trust me all you need is the right setup and that car will move down the quarter mile strip. The v6 is great. Awesome car. Great build enjoy it. My N/A FWD setup hooks and it's fully built. I wish you all the best My friend with your car. Much ❤ Honda Fam!
You should strip it and get it to the track. Also boost by gear will definitely help on the street.
It’s a daily
Fantastic stuff. I hope he gets a 4th-Gen Acura TL with the SH-AWD. That’ll put down some serious acceleration times with the kind of mods he put on this accord.
You should swap in a j35A8 from a TL Type S or Acura RL (IIRC, all RLs from 08-09 came with the A8) they come with 280-290hp and forged crankshaft and connecting rods factory and J32A2 heads for better flow combined with a j37 plenum (larger diameter Throttle) you would have a better base for that turbo kit. Everything bolts in with almost no mods necessary and wiring harness is plug and play. Also the manual from the TL type S has a LSD and a shorter 2nd gear to help with those launches. I've been loving this series 😊
we have a buddy with a cammed and basic bolt on Caprice which is just a G8 essentially and that thing traps like 119mph and low 12s so the accord is scooting and seemed like you only went through maybe a gear and a half the accord wouldve pulled hard up top. typical low tq high hp roll race the torque will hop them out but your HP will reel them in. built>bought
Honestly the TCS is very good in the accord coupe 6/6 and doesn't pull as much timing as you think. It's best to leave it on.
I know its the daily, but seeing a track video would be pretty sweet for this ride
Cor-sport usa has Honda badges that dont fade, crack, and condensate.
love the seat!
Awesome video bro should add like a extra 10k to that total number for labor
Def want one after watching this series
When you finally hook up and get off the mark clean in a FWD car with 300+hp it's feels amazing, Idc who wants to call me slow, I be having fun.
FINALLY!! BEEN WAITING FOR ANOTHER GINGIUM VIDEO 🎉🎉
Bro really said “I don’t think I’m that good of a fabricator” like he isn’t one of the best automotive fabricators on RUclips
So pretty much if u dont have skills like him this isnt worth it at all lmao. awesome build boss thanks for being transparent.
Great video!
lowkey miss the mountain biking. never thought id say that
Damn the outside sound of the pulls reminded me of that one Tyler1 video😂
Love the car, and everything you did. I prefer the all motor version. Type S 3.5 with bolt ons and mine runs 13.0 on old street tires
I own a Pro charged 12 3.7 mustang Circle d convertor ect... 444rwhp. 11.5 @ 121mph Ive been able to get to 60 mph in about 3.8-3.9 seconds on drag radials. On 275 nitto street tires the best on street Ive ever gotten is 4.4 seconds to 60 mph due to horrendous wheel spin after 4500 rpm- 7700rpm when my P1x makes boost. Im sure if you got some drag radial it would take 1/2 second off your 0-60 easy. Im betting high 4s. Awesome video
Your times are great because your car is RWD. He’s gonna need a lot more work and prep to hit 4s even with drag radials
@@OnlyOriginalNinja 100% agree with you. I was just mentioning drag radials if he was gonna chase 0-60
Time for an LSD? I would love to see you install an LSD on this trans and then take it to an actual prepped surface. Then lets see you do a real suspension set-up for the Volvo and take that to the drag strip as well. Your videos are awesome bro. keep up the great work my dude.
