crazymikey : 1990 Accord LX

[crazymikey]

BTW, ship me your subs??????

What subs? I sold all of the audio from the wagon the week I bought it.

man oh man im loving that sedan shit looks hot slammed on its nuts like that

[crazymikey]

lol, this sedan is the 2nd shittiest of the 10 CB's I've bought in the past 3 years. Only my super rusty 90 EXR coupe takes the cake for that.

I've put the 1 pc headlights up for sale. I've decided not to use them. My coupe looks so hot with stock headlights and amber corners with 9293 amber bumper lights.

Tomorrow it's coilover time. And then maybe in the spring, rear disc conversion, since I now have the parts to do it.

Why don't you get sprung over JDM headlights

[crazymikey]

Because my car isn't JDM or RHD. I don't need the incorrect headlights, and I'm not on the JDM bandwagon.

[keepinitclean]

-_- You prove a damn good point. I respect that. What about EDM/JDM 2 piece plastic LHD Nippless headlights? They are correct for the coupes and they are sorta matching.

How much did you give for the sedan?

Me no likey those 17's once F&F's are on try the ITR's.

[crazymikey]

Yes, EDM's I like.

I'll be adjusting the coilovers once I install them. I hate the raked stance the sedan has with them. Way too much tuck and camber in the front. I want a nice even stance, with the top of the tire just flush with the fender for no gap, but no hellaflush or stanced look.

The 17s suit the coupe perfectly. Everyone has complemented it. The ITRs are so small and insignificant. They will however be my winter wheels.

And your not giving me your 1 piecers? FOR SHAME! FOR SHAME!

[SOHC-FTW]

A 17in fits nicely yes, but i've never liked those wheels the design is blah a different design would be a +. Once lowered i think the 15's would be right at home, but that depends on how much you drop it. To each their own keep up the work though.

On complements.

[crazymikey]

I like the wheel design personally. Yes, they're kind of generic, but then the ITRs look like they could be any Enkei or Rota wheel too.

[DjM_coupe]

Dropped on 15's is fun.....

[crazymikey]

After a long day of swapping suspension, sweating my ass off, breaking bolts and bushings on that piece of shit sedan, and finally getting it all together, here's the result.




Huge difference



The collection


Finally, F&F's on the coupe!



Coilovers on the front, Teins on the rear


Coilovers fully installed, coupe looking sexy as ever. I think I'm in love all over again.














And if you didn't notice, the leather is back in it.



On another note, the sedan needs major work.
-Both sides, CV boots ripped
-Sticking front right caliper
-Exhaust leak
-Had to get new headlights/corners from the JY
-Got new dizzy from the JY
-Rearview mirror from the JY
-Interior needs to be...different
-Body is rusty and shitty
-Car runs like a bag of shit, needs a major tune up
-HVAC system hacked up and not functioning properly
-Both rear lower strut mount bushings need to be replaced. Broke 1 bolt, and then destroyed the other bushing because it was all dried out and seperated itself from the rubber.

So far, I'm about $150 invested into it for new rear strut mount bushings, headlights and dizzy. I put the Tein springs in it from the coupe. I am not going to recover much money out of this car. Realistically I may see $500-700 out of it in running condition with a few fixes.

Coupe looks great as always.

HOT DAMN.. The coupe is lookin' fresh as fuck, Mikey! Good work. I think black-housed lights would be nice, no yellow high-beam though...just a thought.

Definitely a head turner. The extra lows really look good. And the 17's are pimp. I hope the fire is back dude, cuz this coupe is one of my favorites and i hope you keep giving it the love and attention it deserves.
