    Nice one! Strangely enough, my kids were all aboard for the wagon vs the minivan I used to drive around. I think they like sitting up in booster seats and being able to see out the windows. My wife, on the other hand, was NOT a fan.

    deff agree

    what honda comes with the bottom console piece like that?>
  • myblueturtlewagovanmyblueturtlewagovan Wagonist
    yes that center console is very rare i think. for the Mugen wheels i went to 3 powercoating shops and all 3 shops wanted more then $125.00 just to do the face. i was driving around when my kids saw a pep boys they said "hay dad maybe pep boys has a spray can or something" well they sure did. and this what they look now. note this is my first time :mrgreen:

    Hahaha NY nooo. well today i pick up a wagon rack. i had one which was to big for my wagon, i was going to cut it down to make it fit. so my ? is the roof rack is not from Honda but for a roof rack company or it is from Honda? beause the other looks the same which came off a mini van i think. :?: wagonrack005.jpg :D
    A lot of them look the same. When you think about it the only difference between them (besides the arc of the roof) is length and width and those parts are extruded aluminum (or whatever) so those parts can be cut to order for the application. Or bundled together as a package. A lot of stuff we in the US think of as 'standard' (stereo, A/C, etc.) were installed by the Honda dealers on cars of this era. bam-bam tells me that the factory roof racks were installed with US hardware rather than the metric nuts and bolts that held the wagons together when they rolled out of the factory in Japan. That makes it a solid bet that the dealership installed the racks.

    the 4wd dual tip "muffler" im guessing.
    snag a 88-91 si hatchback one, it has the dual tip you are talking about.

    nice job on those wheels!

    I don't think I'll ever be enthusiastic enough to go RHD. I've been driving from the left side of the car for 25 years and I'm not sure I'd adapt well enough to make the switch for my daily driver. It'd be nice for a lark, though. But then again, you've gone to the trouble of getting a front clip from Japan so maybe that says you're a lot more of a JDM enthusiast then me, lol!
  • myblueturtlewagovanmyblueturtlewagovan Wagonist
    well the parts where real cheap that i couldn't pass it up just parts that where on the clip are worth more then the clip it self and this is so pose to be my daily. so much to think about. rhd or not
