- In this episode of this series, we will continue what we left off on Episode 1, prepping this SC for a problem-free long road trip. With our first trip to Houston just days away, these are the Oem items we replaced: Alternator, Starter, Water Pump, Driver Belt and Tensioner, all Coolant hoses, all A/T hoses and filter, and spark plugs. Then Brian at Paint Society finished off with refinishing the front end including headlights, front bumper, grill and rear tailgate trim.
Now this Element SC is ready to hit the road. Stay tuned for the AHC Meet coverage videos for both Houston and NJ.

I absolutely love the use of all OE Honda parts! Just found the channel and can’t wait to get caught up on all the other vids!
Welcome to our channel
As always, you guys do such an incredible job!!! All 47 minutes and 27 seconds are so worth watching!! It's hard to source OEM parts these days (I have an 04 TSX). Looking forward to the next 2 episodes!! Thanks for another great video!!
Thanks for the support
I’ve never heard of an intake tube going bad, even the rubber ones. My GSR original intake tube has been on the car for all of its 28 years, with no issues.
You’re right about the order intake tube like the Integra, but the newer models are different. That’s what we do everyday 😃
Your Integra's tube doesn't need to be flexed as much to change the filter. The Element's tube also sits above the engine...and these guys are in FL. So its bound to crack at some point.
I've always liked the Element and kinda want to get one. Can't wait to see the rest of this build!
A professional video like this is missing several things:
1. Use of fender covers
2. Anti seize compound on spark plugs in that aluminum head
3. Silicone dielectric compound on the spark plug boots
4. Core support &various brackets anti-rust &paint
I would not hv changed out a working starter or alternator. Those items generally outlive electric fans& sensors. Rather I would’ve concentrated on more obvious items like sensor replacement, fuel injector & throttle body cleaning. I might’ve vacuumed down the AC charge, recycled & processed the Freon, replaced the desiccant bag in the accumulator if serviceable, drained the compressor oil, reseal, vacuum& recharge. I would’ve added an auxiliary automatic transmission oil cooler whilst the bumper cover was down.
Thanks for the suggestion. Fender covers 100% but the others are not recommended by Honda
@@ahcgarage now it’s recommended by this NIASE Certified Master Tech/ Mechanical Engineer. I also own the Element SC &an Acura TL A-Spec.
I also recommend a valve lash adjustment North of 100-120K miles &so does Honda. I would’ve upgraded the battery 2a DUHON LiON w/emergency backup rather than waste good money &man hours renewing good working, expensive items like that. If u we’re looking 4extra things 2do that r meaningful, I provided u w/several more logical choices than replacement of a working starter& alternator. U missed key advice items. There’s a difference between OEM reconditions 2make $& being frugal& smart. There’s a difference between being a Tech who acts in his clients’ best interests &blindly following OEM recommendations. If u r going 2play smart on TV, b smart.
Love this I'm biased vecause I also have a element SC
Mine is 2007 270k miles all original still going had to change the transmission mount 2 times and the battery and knock sensor
Cheers to that!!
116000miles? woah this element is in really nice condition!! I’m sure these replacements weren’t necessary but I’m glad you guys showed all the potential issues and how to address them.
Can’t afford anything happen when we traveling 1200 miles across town
Age has more to do with failure than mileage. My oem alternator only had 120k when it failed on my Element. But it was 15 years old
Very true!!
Mike should PPF the hood and complete front bumper and head lights to keep them looking pristine from stone chips scratches and fading
Pimped Element. I like it ...
Fantastic job as always guys the Honda should be good for thousands of miles and is ideal for your needs. If you want to do a long haul tour then you can always pop across the pond to the UK and come see me 😁😲🤣 John UK.
Thank you John. Maybe one day!! :-)
Get rid of that interstate battery and install the oem just to compliment the engine bay, love your guys videos super informative.
Haha, we are trying hard not to do it but we might just have to after our Houston trip
This was such a joy to watch, Thanks guys. subscribed!
Thank you!!
Great production value. Where’s the subs?
Good way to start my morning with an AHC Garage episode 😎
Edit: Element is looking good! I know the battery works fine and it's just cosmetic but that green Interstate battery is bothering me more than it should lol 😅
You’re so right. That green battery is killing us but we are learning not to blow our life saving away haha 👍🏼
What battery would you choose, I’m not hating just wondering lol
We would probably go with an Acura/Honda Reman. battery. It has an all black battery case.
On the flip aside, all Reman Acura/Honda batteries are manufactured by Interstate
@@ahcgarage ahh I see. Thanks for the quick response. Keep pushing these videos. You’re blowing up quick.
I will be in that car meet on Sunday with my fk8 see you there guys
Great way to start my afternoon 💪🏼💪🏼🔥🔥 as usual great job fellas
Thanks for the support!!
45:11
Who let Borat work at your garage🤣🤣
Good catch!! Haha
NO WAY I'm in Delaware please post or make a video with dates and locations you guys will be doing or going to shows at if it's Maryland new jersey or Pennsylvania they are all my surrounding states I absolutely would love to meet you guys would love to see John's DA9 if he brings it my first car was a Milano red 93 DA9 im a huge fan love the content and love the enthusiasm we all have for these Honda's and acura's I love the attention to detail you guys put into every car you work on even when it's not your car you take the same care as if it were your own
Our next AHC Meet will be in Bridgewater Acura in NJ on 05/29/22. Hope to see you there.
I really enjoy your videos it really inspired me fixing my car even it’s not broken 😁. I just wondering how you get all Honda genuine parts for older cars. Keep up bro
Honda Oem parts are the best!!
I know most of the job was made in your own workshop but It would be interesting to know How much you spent approximately on the whole restoration
absolutely amazing really enjoy your videos keep it up best wishes for you stay connected dear friend
Thank you! Cheers!
Hope you can make DC/Maryland/Virginia as a stop for one of your future events!
May 29th in Bridgewater Acura in NJ. Hope to see you there!!!
Need to add the oem spoiler
We will get one in the near future. Prices are kinda nutty
@AHC Garage Love these OEM spec maintenance videos! If you have the opportunity, is it possible to request any items for the newer 2.0L Turbo motors? We have a 19 RDX for example.
I bet J35Z4 (J series engine) would be great for engine swap for this Honda element
Beast
brao- you created super - see you on my side~ guy- ;))
Much appreciate it
I bought an ES2, what maintenance is needed for a car, to completely be road ready for long drives.
👍🏼👍🏼
Your tires are rubbing because the OFFSET of the wheels 🛞 and the Spacers you're using... I am running the same size of tire on my Element 225/55/R18, but my wheels are the Genuine 2017-18 Honda CR-V's alloy wheels with +45 Offset, and there's no rubbing at all (not inside, nor outside of the wheel well). And I am lowered on BC Coilovers full set. 😎🤝🏻😄👍🏻😃✌🏻
We are trying very hard to stay stock.... 😁
@AHC Garage excuse me, my friend, I was writing that comment to another video, and yours started right after... 😆😁😄 so the comment went to your video, instead of the other one 🤣🤣😂😂... your SC looks great, and I like it stock too 😀 just customize a few things to make it your car 😎✌🏻🤝🏻😃
хороший Элемент. 👍
Cheers!!
Love all your videos, and you guys due a awesome job. One question, why you didn't change the inline trans filter?
We did. Look closer when we are doing the radiator and A/T lines
🙌 i love the element content.
Thanks Grant!!
Man I know all them OEM parts must have cost as much as the car itself would like to know as I am getting me an Element myself and want to do the same thing too
Oem part prices aren’t cheap, yet they are not expensive as you think. Also, they will keep you on the road and fits every time
What’s your sanding process for headlights? Before clear. Looking to do it on my 2010 sc
Check out this video with step-by-step info:
th-cam.com/video/hjq7g0dv4io/w-d-xo.html
What's the tool used to take off the plastic tab rivets over the front bumper/radiator under the hood at 3:40?
Love your vids, question? Where do you'll get your OEM parts from?
Gooooodddddd job 👌👌
Thank you!!
Hey!! nice video, nice element
Much appreciate it
Mike I would love for you and Jonathan to find an SC for me in the same condition and do it up for me. I would have replaced the fans if you are going to really replace big wear items. In Sarasota I am always really anal about my car maintenance. I have been turning wrenches since 1972 and since the arthritis set in and the electronics I just go to the dealer.
That’s a great point
Can I bring my honda element for some repairs? Would love to collaborate and do a video with yall ❤
You should get a roof box for it
We try to get away not doing one since it will kill the mpg even more. So far, it fits everything we needed
The spark plugs to plug the ATF lines 🤌🏽
Had to do that myself last weekend when I changed out my radiator too.
Right on!!
No new AC condenser!!?? Ahh
9 times out of 10 it's better to use oe parts you know they will fit right the first time every time
first of all I'd like to say I'd like to bring by one of my rare Hondas instead of an appointment sometime with you guys if possible
I agree with you man I think when you have somewhat rare model you should modify it yeah tastefully you don't have to go crazy do something to make it different!! I like rare Hondas I MYSELF HAVE A 1 OWNER 60K ORIG MILES 2004 V6 6-SPEED COUPE ACCORD with EVERY HFP option available THEY CAME WITH FRONT LIP REAR LIP SIDE SKIRT SPOILER WHEEL PACKAGE LEATHER SEATS HEATED SEATS STEREO NAVIGATION CARBON FIBER TRIM
I am daily driving this so I didn't want to go too crazy like you were saying in the video just do it tastefully at my shop I made sure to go through all the maintenance first front to back top to bottom exedy clutch flywheel every belt every hose every gasket every seal plugs ignition coils fuel injectors fuel pump every piece of suspension ball joints control arms tie rods axles wheel bearings rack and pinion brakes and tires everything!!!!!!! To make sure maintenance is at 100% before mods!!!
And then just did tasteful mods since it already has the hfp body kit or lip kit whatever you want to call it I just did J37 intake manifold and throttle body precat deletes J pipe and nice tasteful dual exhaust that's not loud So that means why is it perfect sounds good More power than stock without hurting the reliability
I think if you guys did that Honda Element that same way and just did some tasteful mods like a nice cold air intake maybe a header full exhaust some nice one piece suspension obviously don't go too low since you guys are going to use it to travel but at least maybe give it like an inch drop or something it would be perfect
That's why I just did tasteful mods on the Accord and went through everything maintenance wise I have my built 1995 Honda Civic EX coupe that I've had for 7 years as a full-blown track car if I want to drive my real race car
Sell me that green 96 gsr in the backgeound pleeeeeeassssseee😁
Sorry, she going to be staying with us for a while
I have one for sale 2006 awd 5 speed 35k miles on her clean title located in oregon
I don’t see a link for that ratcheting hose clamp in the link, can you provide it please?
Just added to the description and also here:

@@ahcgarage Thank you!
What sand paper used for the headlights?
Check out this video:
th-cam.com/video/hjq7g0dv4io/w-d-xo.html
What’s the mileage on this car when you did all this work?
Nice Car
Cheers!!
Do you plan to install fog light on it?
If we can find a kit without breaking the bank. We refused to do it
@@ahcgarage yeah me too! i have a SC 09.
Needs some coil overs…
We will keep them stock for now
Something about watching all Honda OEM parts put get me all hot and bothered lol
