    The new rims look so sweet on your wagon man. The new lip is sick as well is it wider than your previous lip? How much clearance you got under the front lip?
    Thanks, the VR6 lip is a bit taller then the volvo 740 GL lip and i think the its 2 inches or 2.5 inches from the ground.

    This just in new mud flaps from New Zealand. The 4wd letters were already painted from the factory. I think these are EDM Honda Shuttle mud flaps but i don't really know...

    Seeing your wheels mounted on your car in person at the Oregon/Seattle wagon meet last year inspired me to go this route bro i owe it to you dawg....

    Thanks, you were the first person to touch my car after i picked her up from Bonney Lake Washington. You did the first tune up to get her running right and that ever so important rear diff bushing mod. I believe it was your wagon that I seen at mt hood meadows that made me even think of getting a civic wagon and the RT4wd version a that. I was wondering how this civic made it up the mountain in all that snow that day and when I made a walk around I was surprised honda even made a civic in a RT4wd version. After that snow boarding session I started looking for one and seen your 12.4 sec qtr mile video and I didn't see the wagon attack video till after. A lot of people always tell me I got my wagon because of that wagon attack video but it was your brown wagon at mt hood meadows. If that brown wagon I seen wasn't yours then it was the situation after snow boarding that sparked the drive to get one.

    I wanted a mil-spec tucked engine harness but didn't want to pay rywire price. I work in the semiconductor industry I know the tools i repair uses the same plug "cannon plug mil-spec heavy duty type" and as i was thinking all i gotta do is find a real electronics store not radio shack and look for a heavy duty cannon plug as i did. When doing a custom wire tuck you have to extend the wires any way and once you do that you have to do a continuity check or signal check which on your fluke DMM its the diode mode. All you have to do is find a heavy duty cannon plug mil-spec with the pig tails and perform that check on the used cannon plug to see if all the pins have contact when connected. Once you do that you have to make sure what ever you connect to pin 1 on the female side is the same on the male side and so on. If you look on the left side of my fire wall i have my 2 easy disconnect cannon plugs which is for my engine harness. Cannon plugs set me back $10.00 each and i repeat $10.00 each!..... Continuity check is key when doing this and soldering the correct wire to the pins on the male and female side is also important. I helped my friend perform this so i'm learning at the same time it aint perfect but good enuff for me and performing the checks just brings me back to electronics school when i was getting my degree. If you went to electronics school this is what you did day in and day out or atleast at the school i attended.

    Ohh yeah i also installed a skunk2 intake manifold, skunk2 alpha throttle body and AEM fuel rail. I'm getting my engine bay prep'd prior to installing my built z6 bottom w/built y8 head engine so it'll be a matter of swapping over parts to the new motor then breakin and finally my turbo set-up install/tune. Im trying to upgrade my wagon in stages.

    Seeing that custom work done mil spec style caught my interest. A lot more than the wheels, stance, and random goodies you got going on your ride... I'm stoked to see more progress !!

    Hey it was great seeing you at the show. Sucks I didn't grab any photos of you. It was hot and just wanted to sit under the tent. Your car is beautiful
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Wow, I haven't looked in here for a long time and you've been busy. A lot of nice work you've put in.
  • wow amazing looking engine bay keep up the good work

    Sick wago bro, dig the pics
  • simplyhondasimplyhonda Council Member
    Very nice work sir! Love the VC.
    also, nice work with the wire tuck, the cannon plugs were a fantastic idea. I deal with them day I & day out in the aviation industry. The Hondjet is full of them. Never thought of applying them to a wire tuck. However now that you mention it, my friend that used to sell exotic cars said Porsche uses them for their engine wiring harnesses. I think there is only like three plugs to undo before dropping the engine. Keep up the good work.

    Hey man nice wagon you have done a good job I'm also in Oregon but live down in the Medford area. I have 90 blue wagon lowered on gold with chrome lip konigs. And I was wondering if you have any extra parts?

    Did those BBS wheels come with the spikes?... or did you get "windshield screws" for a motorcycle? I have been considering doing the same on my Rota zeros.
