    slammed on nothing (no struts or springs)

    well my car is under construction, im basically rebuilding the whole thing, i was in the middle of a motor swap ive never done and now it need to get out the driveway and i didnt feel like putting the struts back in so i put the axles in, and balljoints which are trash back together and dropped it. the last pics of my car on here are at stock height n now i have all the jdm stuff for it and getting dropped on dropzone, the rear is already dropped 1.25in and the front is gonna be 1.50 but im gonna cut the bump stops half way to drop another inch. i also didn't know dropzone was shitty, its stock height struts with loweering springs which are gonna blow the stuts but heres some pics for fun.
    still waiting on jdm headlights.











    i never took pics since i did the leather swap from a 91 n painted inside a bit along time ago its gonna be redone and the center console isn't gonna be white anymore since i found this 92 high rise arm rest.




    93 coupe bottom seats

    old height for comparison

    im getting these old wheels back also for low offset

    this car's gonna turn out amazing in my eyes.

    I drove around town one time with just struts and bump stops no springs. Shit was insanely scary. Every time I hit a bump it was like I was going to shake off the road.

      Lmao @ tracie your wild.
      As to the OP I figured it would be much lower than this it must be sitting on the control arms or something.
      I seen a 91 prelude with no springs and we could barely roll it accross the concrete lol

              hell naw, i plan on doing all the chrome trim to gold. im going all out with the gold on white.
              the drivers side front was gold then i did middle and outside black so it only gold in the middle and really dirty.

                haha nice, ive never tried it with springs AND struts missing but one time i had a car towed that had no springs (bought it that way), so we put metal tubes in place to hold it up.

                im surprised you were able to move it without the tires getting stuck on the fenders.

                      makes me sad, seems like these accords dont go as low as i expected

                      just like my civic in some ways, shock towers is the limit. guess you gotta cut the shock towers if you want more low, idk how you would solve the rear if the rear has similar uca as the fronts.

                          for the emblem i got it off here dont remember who.
                          and the car cant even be that low cuz the wheels are rubbing the shock towers, havent tried to move it yet. ill be cleaning up and finishing the tan swap.

                          its not black carpet its blue as well as the dash and seatbelts still.

                            Accords can go pretty low I can set mine on the ground pretty much and with my front all the way down is undrivable. And he still has springs in the back because if he didn't it should be on the ground pretty much.
