    Very awesome car man!!! I can't say that there is anything that you have done to that car that I wouldn't have done myself! Keep up the good work.

    I'm sure alot of people wont like this Idea, but I've had nothing but success using spray brake clean for getting stains out of automotive carpets. I was a mechanic for years and if we made a boo boo it was around, worked awsome and reqired no scrubbing. it basically desolves the oils and they run down to the base of the carpet. I would assume it removes some of the oils from the carpet and dries it out but I've never noticed any long term problems. It also takes quite awhile to air out but it does go away.
    .....Just a thought.

    Picked up a few items from a great seller on another forum. Did a total face lift on the ass of my wagon :)
    Sorry for the shitty camera shots

    Perfect weather for a cruise and to go campin!


    Oh and here is a shot of the cars' profile with the visor... I think it looks awesome. Like something out of the movie TRON! lol!

  • that visor is the coolest thing i have ever seen. i need one! where on earth did you find it?
  • cb723cb723 Wagonist
    Nice wagon bro
  • JesseCRXJesseCRX Council Member
    Cody,
    The guy I bought it from had a connect in Japan.
    The visor was a Honda Access accessory. I will do my best to get some pics of it from the brochure. It's the only oem visor/spoiler I have seen for the wagon. When he posted it up for sale I jumped on it.

    Very delicate plasic. Almost feels like an eggshell.

    Almost thought about finding someone who would do a mold of it and reproduce it but I'd have to see someone's work before doing so.

    It definitely sets off the rear of the car. I notice my rear windshield doesn't get as dusty know after a long drive. I assume it's because the visor forces air downward because of the way it's shaped.

    lucky you! i wish i knew someone out there to source parts for me. getting my window visors was enough of a task, i have no idea where i'll find one of these lol.

    whats funny is a buddy of mine at work had mentioned a "spoiler" on a wagon he saw in the early 90's. i told him i never heard of anything cause of course i've looked all over. then i came home and saw this and now the search is on for me lol.
  • You really drive around with all the stuffed animals? Or are those for pics only?
  • ThaClutcHThaClutcH Senior Wagonist
    Damn, never knew they made them for the wagons. Ugh. I so want one know.
  • AaronAaron Wagonist
    i love this car
  • This is such a sweet build! Still looking for my old lady selling a wagon...
  • BillBoardBillBoard council member

    Yeah I was wondering the same thing.

    Yes, I do. Why? Because I have zero tint, and my rear interior carpet is NASTY. It diverts attention away from the flaws. Once I get my edm rear interior, I won't have nearly as much junk in my car.

    Besides, I have a theory about neutralizing haters. Nostalgia always seems to make people smile. Notice I have Pac Man, Ren n Stimpy, PokeyManz and a weird Sgt. Frog back there...something from just about every point from the 80's til now...so chances are someone is gonna remember the characters no matter the age. I NEVER get reved at...never get hater looks...so maybe I am onto something? lol! Do I look silly with all that crap back there? Maybe. But then again I really don't care. It's a fun car for me and I don't mind being silly if it means makin people smile. Who knows...I may throw a My Pet Monster, some Transformers, Some Voltron, A Gremlins Lunch Box and a My Buddy doll back there just to change shit up :P

    Thanks to everyone else for the props. I really wanna get a camber kit for the front/rear along with a rear toe kit. Last thing is new suspension. I like the HR Race Springs but I need something stiffer. The car feels like a Cadillac. Which is ok, but I want a more responsive ride.

    I love this wagon.. I have got to say this one should be COTM for next month!
  • JesseCRXJesseCRX Council Member
    Oh, and just for reference in case you guys wanted to know what other decals can go on the wagon..

    So it looks like the Beagle was the top model of the 4WD Wagon in Japan. The RT-i didn't have the bullbars from what I could see.
    Still have a few more spiff mods to do to the car. I desperately need a new hood. The one I have has really bad hail damage.
  • CharbCharb Administrator
    That rear visor is sweeeeeeet! I've never seen one before.

    Really sick car man. Keep it comin!

    Your gonna have to let "my buddy" roll shotgun. Way to much of a player to be stuffed in the back with the other rif raf.

    OMG, you're the one with the VX swap, right?
    I wanna do a 3stage Vtec swap in my wagon. Got everything including ecu..just need a custom harness!
  • vtecn8ivevtecn8ive Senior Wagonist
    Yeah I have the VX in it (actually out at the moment getting some stuff cleaned up).

    I can't wait to see some day shots of that rear spoiler and how it mounts.
    Glad it went to someone that takes car of their cars!
  • 87WAGOVAN87WAGOVAN Band Wagon
    Nice Shuttle!!!! It's too clean!! I want that body style so bad. I got a 87 FWD 5spd, Im still new to this site, so i havent figured how to get pics up and get them to stay. Can you help?

    I want to slam mine as low as it will go. motor swap to something better then carbed, and get fresh paint and some sick wheels. Any ideas of easy motor swaps that wouldn't take to much work to fit? Suspension? wheel size?

    ok then. Was just wondering. I never get revved at either. I am a Honda enthusiast, but my Honda is totally OEM looking & sounding. It is like an invisible cloak to ricers I guess.
