    da9b16 : 1994 Accord EX wagon

    I forgot how many I have owned now. I bought a BMW 528i-T wagon which I still own.... but after replacing everything on it and doing a cost comparison on the 2. I realized some very important things about myself and my abilities.
    #1. Honda accords and their f22's are seriously some of the best engines around. PERIOD......
    #2. I LOVE ACCORD WAGONS.
    #3. The things I had to do to the BMW required me to get assistance, I dont need assistance in working on accords.
    #4. I LOVE ACCORD WAGONS
    #5. The parts not the engine and trans just the parts like radiator, fans, suspension, water pump, fluids, water cooler pipes, expansion tank etc....for the BMW cost more than the total cost of my last 3 wagons purchase price combined..... I paid 600 for white one in my signature sold it for 3200... last one I sold in July was cost me 2k.... sold for 3800. The one I just got yesterday I traded a camera (that I got for free) for it so its a freebie. It's rough but no rougher than the rest of them.
    #6. I LOVE ACCORD WAGONS..... did I say that already? JEESH
    without anything further.... here is wagon #10 I think??? I think??? I get them all confused lol.

    sorry its soo blurry more to come...




    I pick up some matching doors and a new fender and lip on saturday for 100. I have some OEM stanley yellow fogs in the garage now and I am picking up some H&R springs for now till I can find some better suspension.
    Or stop spending my money on these.....

      Dont like the rear bumper lights.... I think they take away from the american side of the car. I like modest jdm/ oem pieces. I love intersection lights and I have owned one set but never installed them. I actually have had 2 rear fog lights too. I have always had stanley one piecers and usually side markers, door pillars"US WAGON" the eagle emblems and some yellow oem stanley fogs.... Maybe I just dont want to take that rear bumper off to cut it up and all that???

      On a side note... I landed an ex trim (like the wagon) matching color doors and fender for the driver side for 100. I also found a set of yellow stanley fogs I had in the garage in a box. I also have some black housing stanley headlights that are retrofitted with some mdx projectors that I started 3 years ago and forgot about. Those will be completed and installed hopefully soon. I am in NEED of some decent coilovers and may trade my cb450 for some full body coilovers..... I have some eibach sportlines somewhere too and I just gave away a WHOLE BUNCH of cool parts. Oh well.

      I also have an h22 still in my garage that I have been holding onto for over awhile. I think its time to get busy this weekend.

            Lee, you're a whore. But you know that already.


            Also, I got coilovers for my car so do you want these Progress springs back? I know you're wanting coilovers for the wagon but these may be preferential over the H&Rs for now. I don't exactly know when I'll be up there next but it's on the table anyway.

              LOL- I could use them for sure. H+R's are ok.... but the progress ride way better. I was JUST in Waco last weekend too! PM SENT....

                      I am selling my bmw 528i-T wagon (gonna miss it) and this will be my daily. I am thinking to paint it a darker pewter color and I may have just sourced another set of racing harts. I am seriously excited about this build and car. I never thought I would really be buying ANOTHER accord wagon, they call me and I run... lol especially when they are free. Like crack or some magic hold on me. I also have an 08 TL and an old school honda cb450 I am currently working on.

                        updates

                        Well yesterday I picked up my matching doors from a 94 ex sedan and a fender in the same color. The clear is peeling off the fender but it was free with the doors so I took it all for 100. The doors were missing the window motors and the glass. So last night I took the original gold doors apart and got the motors and the glass and the rubber seals from them. The new doors seals were TRASHED from whomever took the glass out. Next up was swapping the locks and the handle from the original door. Oh yeah and I got the H&R spring as well for now.

                          This door swapping turned into a 3.5 hr event..... the interior was the NASTIEST I have EVER seen. There was coffee and coke EVERYWHERE. I used 2 whole rolls over paper towels and almost a whole 30oz bottle of cleaning solution diluted 1 part water 2 parts solution. IT SMELLED LIKE ASS AND CIGARETTES....and it had them everywhere to prove it too. I almost puked twice. DISGUSTING.....I put my little green machine (hand held steamer) to the test.

                            New doors in and door panel and wiring done..... dont mind the BIG ASS rip on the panel door seal. Apparently when they took the doors off from the car taking care of the panels was not on their minds. They did not have the door handle installed at all and the switches were not hooked up or the mirror previously.







                            More to come...... I think I will do my front suspension tomorrow since I cut the shite outta my finger today and I was hurting after that smell and clean out.
