Mikey..car is lookin GREAT

like the wing a lot, and the sweet tails. Besides a drop, what's next in store for her?

[crazymikey]

Nope,springs arent in yet. I hope they show up next week.

As for plans with that's next...umm...I need new tires. My roommate's mechanic does tires now and he deals with Cooper, so maybe I can get a nice set of 15" Nexen N2000's at a good price.

I'd like to start tackling bodywork and paint before July. In July we have Street Wheelers Weekend in Lethbridge, and it's basically a huge ass weekend with awesome car shows, cruising, some drag racing and drifting events and a big public cruise. They didn't let my B2200 in last year because it didn't look finished, so I'd like to try and have the car looking good.

Other than that, still need to find someone to help me with the 5 speed swap,because that is a big flashing red item on my To Do list.

maybe when i go to alberta this summer we can do the 5-spd swap...i don' really know how to do it but with the diy on her we should be able to do it lol.

I just got bored with the sedan trunk. It's sitting ontop of my parts car right now with the spoiler removed.

I picked up the drop springs from the post office today. Dont know when I will get around to installing them. Maybe next week. Weather is looking like it'll be shitty and I should have some time to do it.

My next door neighbour also wrecked his 93 EX. Looks like he rearended someone. The hood is dented and pushed up a bit, and the grille and headlights are pushed straight back,but not damaged. He definetly needs a new rad support. I have all the parts to repair it. I'd like to offer to repair it for him, or buy the car off him cheap and fix it myself and drive it.

With the age of it, may not be worth him to deal with insurance, so if they want to write it off, I'd definetly buy it off him cheap. He paid $1500 for it, so I'd offer him 500 cash as it is and fix it for free with my parts and then make him jealous driving it around all fixed up for $500 Only downside to it is that it's an automatic too. But it's as clean as my car. No rust and immaculate blue cloth.

[accordkid16]

buy it and turn it into a drag car

[crazymikey]

He's going to let me know this week when he wants me to start repairing it.

I have since painted my trunk this past weekend, waiting for my HIDs to arrive, and going to hopefully install my drop springs on Sunday.

Ever heard of the wonderful invention called paint? lol

[crazymikey]

Trunk is painted and 6000k HIDs installed. If all goes well, should be lowering the car on Sunday with my room mate.

These HIDs are the 35w 6000k slim ballast kit from DDM Tuning. They were $69 shipped to my door in Canada. I am very impressed with them. And haven't been flashed by a single car yet. They really are not that rediculously bright, but they are a huge improvement over the Eurolites I had. HIDs for me for now on.




Some random pics I took yesterday

[accordkid16]

nice where did you order the hids from kuz i want a set

[crazymikey]

www.ddmtuning.com

They were back ordered one week when I bought them, but they are in stock now.

Other item?

I'm in need of tires. Might pick up some new tires next week. Want to try and get some Nexen N2000 or 3000's in 205/60/15.

Also need to look into a wheel bearing. I think my left rear is going because it's constantly chirpring.

Anywhoo, I picked up a set of spring compressors today and lowering will commence on Sunday.
