Wagon in Hawaii
majik808
Band Wagon
Made a post before, but didnt follow some rules, so it got deleted. Apologize staff!
So I'm starting all over.
So I had a '85 Corolla, and felt like getting something new.
So this kid was interested in my hachi, and wanted to trade for his civic wagon.
After test driving his car, he asked if I seen any potential in that car, I said sorta?
But inside I was like hell yeah!
So I parted most good parts of my hachi, then did the trade.
Car came with D2 suspension, kosei k1 rims, blinds made by wood, and some sounds.
Took off the kosei k1s, threw on these unknown rims, just to get that 'hellaflush' look.
16 x 9 +13
and also welded on a truck tip
then painted the rims white,
wrapped my old junction produce neck rests with cherry blossom fabric,
along with the door panels and wink mirrow,
painted the hood chalk black,
threw on gold lower control arms,
and added a DIY walmart front lip.
just for HellaFlush Hawaii.
month after, started doing body work slowly with my uncle.
Rented a booth, painted it lavender.
Also painted the trims.
Installed rear blox camber kit, and godspeed front camber kit.
Rear came out perfect.
Front, made no difference for some reason.
So then I tried filing the holes more inner like almost a quarter inch,
and still no difference!
Anyone know a good front camber kit for these wagons?
now tryna make these fatties fit.
15x9.5 fronts
15x10 rears
but since the front wont camber as much, i got a situation.
Should be getting tires for these wheels soon.
There's only 2 or so wagons in Hawaii that are in fixed up.
Not much out here, so I'm trying to look different from the rest.
So if anyone got some rare parts I can slap on my baby,
let me know! ;] But yes, they need to be shipped to Hawaii. Lol,

mods, please lock other threads.
i tried going on them before making this thread,
but it seemed locked for some reason.
cause i thought i accidentally unfollowed some rules.
So i thought the mods were going to delete the others.
Sorry for the spam.
Thanks man, yeah I was going to paint it the same color again to have the oem look, but just wanted to stick out from the rest.
No updated pictures yet, haven't worked on it lately. Been too busy with work and stuff. As soon as I do, I will mos def post some pictures.
That's cool to know man, thanks.
That was kind of a dick thing to say. It's his wagon, he's gonna do what he wants to do with it. You may not like the color or wheels or whatever it is that you disagree with but you're not the one paying for it. To each their own.
Wagon definitely looks different, shouldn't you have done the fender pulling and rolling before the paint though? I thought it cracks the paint if you try and do it with fresh paint.
