me confuse chillin in the wagon
jacked it up to get the new tie rod ends on and adjust the toe it was way off when i got it
finishing up welding the exshust witch i found out today sounds badd ass its not loud or raspy its nice and deep but not drowny
as for the door and the hood man ur bout like a week late on askin they had a full wagon at wide water picka part and as off like 5 days ago they put another car on top of it i think imma go see if i can get the rear hatch open and swipe the rear carpet out off it mines all fd up if u get ur wagon runnin right u should swiing on down to woodbridges i dont no anyone else witha wagon at all it sucks
yea, i've passed up a few wagons there, most hoods I find have dings. One of these days I'll pull the trigger. I'm walking distance from that junk yard You ever been to aamco in Lorton?
well as of yesterday it is on the road i have one check engine code cuz my tps sensor is fd up but imma fix that today but since i got it on the road i decided to snap a few pics in a dif envoroment than my uddys garage and to ansewr the question of how the coilovers ride it rides pretty good its stiffer that i thought it would b but thats good cuz it doesnt bottom out but heres a few pics i snapped last night
pic of the tail pipe so u can see it a lil better
i think i might have to move the tag braket some were the tags grinds the gorund when i pull out the drive way
fresh ughh
i think imma correct the camber a little bit in the front to save them tires for a lil longer
the flaps r slowly werin down
camber is so bad ass lookin but it kinda looks like the wheels gona fall off hopefully not lol
yea im not realy sure whats up wit the purple hood i thought bout either doin flat balck or tryin my luck and tryin to do plad print i dont really want to paint it gray again oo or rusting it out im no sure yall have to help me decide
yea i put new tie rod ends on and adjusted the toe and the camber and all the coils i need to adjust the front agin tho wen one of the wheels is straight the other one is just a little bit off ill do that today after work when i put some fresh front brakes on
get some stencils to do your plaid print. that is what i was thinking of doing. painting up the hood and roof and maybe the back gate. would look bad ass i think, but that is just my $0.02, hahaha. digging your wago.
thanks everyone that said they liked it umm and for the camber i cambered it enough to make the wheels flush lol i have no idea i went off the fenders the camber makes it handle awsome its a lot of fun to drive its like a gokart and with that b16 pullin it around it get down the road pretty dam quick i wouldnt go as far as to say its fast but it def pulls pretty hard exspcialy wen vtec kicks in .tomrow imma put my racin seats in and paintin the rest of my trim and i might chop up my hood and weld in some sleepy eyes every one does the hood or the stickers to make there car look mean i want mine to look like its bout to go to sleep lol and i also wana find a saffari rack i like them roof racks but i think a saffari basket would look bad ass
it wasnt really on purpose .the car came with the hood painted and i bought the control arms so the hood would kinda make sense i think imma end up 2 toning the hole car with a top black and the bottom gray im not sure yet

a lil update of the weekend fun i got my seats in finally got off my ass and did that i wired up my fan to a switch and i also found a saffari rack on craigslist but i havent herd anything back about it yet but he does live in the same town as me so hopefully ill b geting that for the seat project i took the stock rails cut the side that bolt on the side of the stock seat and cut it flush to match the other side and put a piece of 2 inch flat steal across the 2 rails and cut some holes out and bolted it up vary simple and quick they look pretty dam good
and as for the fan switch thing i was cruzin around for about an hour or so and i was in da wendys drive thru and noticed my heat gage went up a lot and was climbing too so i turn up the heat in the car gage droped down till i got home poped the hood to investegate and i found that one of my fan blades came off completely and when that happend it fried the lil sensor on the block so i had to replace the fan and wire it up somehow so serched the gargae a lil bit and found sweet racing switch lol
it makes ppl wonder whats under the hood wen u have a sweet switch like this bad boy lol
small update on the build i got my brandnew dizzy off ebay in the mail yesterday cost me a hole 109$ free shippin and i also met up with a guy on craigslist and snaged a oem b16 intake manifold with the injectors rail and throttle body for only 30 bux i took off the throttle and cleand the crap out of it and slapped the throttle body and dizzy on and horray no more check enige light wooo hooo lol
gotta love ebay well for now i guess ill see how it does it looks exactly the same and the check enige light went out soo
and heres the really dirty manifold i got but its ok cuz i only needed the tb
both parts installed and no light ooo yea
and this weekend will be the start of my simple wire tuck not gona tuck the fuse block and the dam brake lines but imma do a simple one injector wires headlights windsheild wiper resivor fan wires .just enought to clean up the enige bay a lil
its ben a few days since ive updated in those few days ive almost ran out of stuff to do to my wagon so i was thinkin bout it really hard i almos hurt somethin i was thinkin so hard and a freind of mine that has a srt4 was like boost it so thats whats gona happen screw it that should b a fun lil project to add on to the wagon so i went to the guy i sold my 86 mr2 to when i sold it to him i sold almost a complete turbo kit to him with it and luckly he didnt use any of the stuff i gave him so i bought it all back for a wappin 200 bux turbo ,tubbing,intercooler,(manifold for a toyota lol wich will b sold for more money for the wagon ),bov ,everything else imma get off some freinds of mine and with all that crap imma buy a fmu and a safc apexi controler and street hack tune it the best i can cuz i ont have the money to convert to obd1 and pay inline pro 1000 bux for s300 and a tune screw that im gona run prolly bout 5psi i shold b safe off that hopefully and im only tryin to get up to like 220 -250 horsys but for now heres a few shot of what i bought and the fresh front brakes i slaped on there last week the rotors cost a hole 15 dollars a peice
Thats not wagovan specific suspension is it? just ef civic/hatch suspension...just curious because i have full ksports on my sedan and i didnt know if it would be usable on a non awd wagovan...
nope my tein stuff is not wagon specific . tein actually didnt list a wagon as an option to put them . on but the dude i got them from had them on a crx witch there all the same thing i even gave him my stock stuff and he put it on his car. so to answer ur question exatly ur stuff can b changed over with no problem from wat ive actually seen
you no i was really thinkin bout doin that either that or doin the hole lip purple wwith a black center i think it would make the lip look huge or even doin a black lip purple center

Keep an eye out for a passenger door and hood if you visit any junk yards in the area.
