Really? I never ever ever scraped the lip on anything with my coupe on the S-Techs.

lol. Ripped my lip off on my driveway today.
Reinforced it with several more screws on the sides where it scrapes. Should hold up pretty good now.
Took the Prelude steering wheel out of the coupe and put a stock one back on. Replaced the DA Teg steering wheel in the wagon with the Prelude one.
This is the 3rd CB I've had this Prelude steering wheel in now. haha
Driving around I'm really hearing my CV shafts stressing. While they're not making worn out clicking noises, you can hear strange creaks, groans, moans and knocks from the front of the car when accelerating.

I thought this stick man decal was wagon appropriate.
And to prevent any tickets, since this car is a cop magnet, I removed my front window tint, which is uber illegal here. So if they're going to get me for anything, it'll just be the exhaust.Last edited by crazymikey; 08-22-2012, 11:28 PM.

This wagon really is a boss! I'm getting rid of my sedan for a BB6 but keeping the engine for a nasty custom build on the side. Might have to throw it into a wagon if I can make a CB9 look this sick
Now that you've gotten rid of the coupe, what are your plans for the wagon's powerplant? Keeping with the H-swap idea or do you even care to build the F? With as many Accords as you've gone through, I can't help but wonder what would have become of the first if you still had it. Good luck with this one!

I still have the coupe, it's currently sitting in my driveway all lonely. I just had to put a new VC gasket on it because it was leaking like mad.
I'm going to put the tan leather back in the coupe and put the wagon's 17s on it and try selling it that way.
I backed out of the H22 deal, so no H for me. I don't care to build the wagon engine at all. The car is quite peppy as it is, plus has a newer motor in it already, however it does burn oil. Hoping it's in the head and not the piston rings. It runs absolutely fantastic otherwise, and I get stupid good gas mileage out of it too, over 600km per tank.
The car already has a full custom 2.5" exhaust from the manifold back (no cat, just a resonator) and a short ram intake. Honestly, all it needs. It's not a race car. Speaking of which, I just got my first speeding ticket in 2 years today. Fuckin' photo radar, 87kmh in a 70 zone, $110. Mother fuckerrrr I think I have another one on the way too
Anywhoo, my DDM HIDs showed up today, 4500k 9006s. Installed them and they are a little more blue than I was expecting, since I ordered bright white. Just waiting for my yellow high beam bulbs to show up now.

Chrome will come on pay day lol. I have a guy interested in the coupe right now, and he wants the ITRs with it, which is fine. Just use the money to buy new wheels for the wagon, and then another flip car.
Here's a couple photos from this evening with the ITRs back on it, and the glaring 4500k HIDs. Retrofit time asap. Feel like a total douche with HIDs right now, but I literally cannot see at night with the stock lights.
Hmm...low

lol, i used to wince back when i'd have to use my HIDs, before i got projectors. If you're going to be using them for a bit, and want to be a little more conscientious to oncoming traffic, eye-lids really helped block some of the upward glare...just throwin' that out there. Hopefully you get projectors sooner than later. I know you'll love the performance and visibility at night.
Anyways, the wagon is lookin' pimp. Looks great with the ITRs on it. Hopefully you get to keep those...and the coupe....
great decals too!
Keep it up, Mikey!Last edited by islandhopper; 08-24-2012, 12:12 AM.

I agree with you mikey the ITR's are nice, but i think a 16-17 fit's the look so much better.
