Hello all, new here..~

[Drew]

Whats up guys, I'm new here and looking for a lot of info so I thought id join

Heres my 90 Accord EX:







My plans for it so far:

Full coilovers, (most likely Tein basic dampers, unless somebody knows something cheaper )

XXr 501's cant decide which color I want tho, leaning towards red.

Some light weight reduction, mostly free mods

Some kind of brake upgrade, (like I said new to these cars) Help me out plz lol

And eventually an NA motor swap, most likely an h series all na motor.

Thanks for looking guys!

clean CB man. and nice plans too.

for a brake upgrade, i would recommend the wagon rotor upgrade. 10.9(11in) up front. get the calipers, caliper brackets, and rotors. shouldnt cost you much tho. $55 for the rotors from auto zone. the calipers and brackets you can find up here in the classified section after you get 30 post or online in ebay

[Drew]

Thanks dude, I will look into that

How does it fare against the turns? Im looking at running the dragon next summer (for those who dont know :311 turns in 11 miles) and it neds to be as reliable and safe, while out handling a bunch of mildly prepped mustangs

[mercyboy]

Very good condition the car....If i were you go to nearby autozone, lordco or go internet on criagslist, kijji etc..... to find ll sort of parts because millions of people are selling,EVEN GO TO JUNK YARD.. i found a ex-r total loss in a accident but the engine is intact...and was a h22 engine which he selling for 600....So yea just explore places and you'll find the right mods for your car...GOOD luck......

get a nice suspension and brake set up. you dont need to get big brake upgrade with 12" rotors that are drilled and slotted. the wagon rotors will do fine. get some new bushings and ball joints. if you look at your suspension, im sure none of it is new or close to it. lol. a rear sway bar along with a good spring/strut combo of full coilovers and strut bars with some sticky tires will get you around those turns.

but dont try to go running those turns at 50+. you dont have a car built for that. unless you tear down your entire suspension, dont count on trying to speed around the corners. lol.

and anyone please feel free to correct me if im wrong on any of my info and/or advice.

nice ride good luck with the upgrades.

[ExplodingCake]

Buff and Polish , it will look brand new.

Thanks guys, that helped me out a ton. Im not even gonna try running around turns at 50 lol these are taken more at 30 or so, and thats in the mustang. lol

So would these be a good example of full coilovers? is this everything i need?

no worries. ask all the questions you need man. we're here to help

and those Tein Basics are nice. and at a good price too. but yeah. those would be some good coilovers to get. but if you looking at adjustable dampening, try to go with something like Function/Form Type Two's, Tein Super Street, D2's, or Ksports. all have adjustable dampening so you can turn the settings up to where you want for the corners, then when your just driving around town, dial it back down.

[Drew]

Well just looking at some price for the adjustable dampening ones its like $1000 bucks. my car didnt even cost that lol. I saw the d2's for 799, hopefully if its like that in a month ill get them.

Okay now camber kits.. would i need one? I am def looking to slam the shit outta my car on some 16x8 xxrs, but like i said I have no clue where to go with this

[Extacee]

wassup mann! welcome! i love ex's

[AccordFan_18]

function and form type 1's run about $630
and they feel real nice

[crazymikey]

Clean EX man. Tons of potential with that one.

[digitalightkenz]

I like EX's

[CB7 Sleeper]

Very clean man, and I'm liking your future plans.
