baracuda : 1991 Accord LX

[baracuda]

Old battery finally kicked the bucket after 5 years, found one on craigslist new for $60. Its nothing special just an Everstart plus, the awesome part is that its barely 20 pounds if not less, and is also much smaller then what I had before but the CCA is still the same. now I need a new and smaller box for my battery in the back.

And yes....yes I do

Installed some poly bushing on my shifter mount plate to replace those super soft rubber ones. I had been thinking about it and just tried it out today and the poly sway bar end link bushings are a PERFECT fit for this. once tightened down the bushing spread out perfectly with the washer and all. gives it that final stiffness I have been looking for. Bets thing is that this cost me nothing as the used bushing came with my sway bar I bought off this forum awhile back.

Well parked my car thursday morning and some how didnt put it into gear and walked out to this.







tweaked the body some...
I did how ever get a new trunk and tail light from the junk yard, its in mint condition but it blue . it doesn't quite shut or fit correct due to the body tweak...going to have to see about getting that fixed.

That totally sucks man...

If only your car was half an inch higher, your bumper would have taken the blow instead... an unexpected side-effect of having a lowered car.

[djcaz_aom]

Damn that sucks.

I got a new trunk and light from the junk yard in prime condition no dents at all, even good body parts out at the yard still to get. I also got some other goodies as well on my run.

[baracuda]

Pics of new trunk, Still need to get the body fixed...I have not been able to do much since still trying to get back on feet. Hoping soon to get my Susp. finished...blah blah blah.

I would but I am not a fan of the 92-93 style, its too round for our square cars lol.

Your trunk lines up pretty well considering the body being bent... And I'm with you on the tail lights, I don't think the lights line up well with our cars. I do however prefer the 92 93 bumpers ^^...

I was surprised as well, i have done anything to it since my last post but I am a few weeks out from a ROH conversion and poly bushing and front end susp. rebuild.

[baracuda]

I keep sounding like a broken record, but going ROH this weekend barring any crazy complications. After driving with completly wrecked bearing for almost a year now im finally getting them replaced. Will be nice to hear my self think while driving the car and not hearing the sound of bad bearings roar along. Also nice as im needing a brake job as well.
parts im using:
90-93 Accord bearings
98 accord hub
94 honda prelude rotors
vtec prelude pads and caliper re-build kit.
After get that some day I will get new shocks and install all the susp. resto parts.
