My drop and new meshies.

[Revmaynard]

Alright, well after a lot of work I got my car lowered with some nice MR2 basketweaves. Started the install with my friend Chris and things were going pretty smooth, but then. We ran into some problems on the initial install but my friend Tom helped me out and things went smoothly. Installed Skunk2 ''coilovers'' with 90 Si lca's and the rims. Lately I've also mounted a new bumper with no hole, tinted the corners full amber, and got the nose mask. I also took the red striping off the bumpers and trim. This is perfect height for me to drive to work in downtown, so I can't slam it anymore although I'd like to. I scrape my front flaps most everywhere since they're longer and a little lower. Since the wagon suspension is different than the other models, it will sit a little bit uneven. It's very hard to pull off completely level. The rear is dumped and the front is up about ten threads.

Before the lowering with my LS rims:

[Revmaynard]

It's called Honey Almond Cream. Plan on painting it the same color when I repaint. It's one of the rarest colors on my car. I was going to wait until the MTN run, but there is a chance I might not be able to make it. Who am I kidding anyways? I couldn't hold off! lol

Lol, there ya go. Got an edit in there for ya. Figured you didn't care to be mentioned since you rarely post haha.

[87 Turbo II]

I have to spread my reps around before repping you again but the gold wheels look AMAZING!

[Revmaynard]

Thanks man, been wanting to go with them since I bought the car. Glad they worked out after machining.

[SMC21810]

looks f*cking good man.

[Revmaynard]

looks f*cking good man.

Thanks, it's getting there.

[87 Turbo II]

you had to machine what? the hubs or the wheels? Cause I thought you had to make 4 new holes for the different bolt pattern, I don't/didn't think you could machine into the existing holes.

[J-ROCK]

looks really good! i think the meshes looked better! IMO

[Revmaynard]

No, they were 4x100. The center hub bore was 54mm and needed to be 56mm to fit. Had them bored out .009 and they fit like a glove.

[87 Turbo II]

Ahhhhh I thought that hondas were 4 by 100 and Nissans/Toyotas/Mitus/everyhting else was 4by 113 (and my Mazda is a ****ty, SOOOO uncommon 4 by 110)

[Revmaynard]

Yea, I have a set of Enkei's right now that are 4x114.3. If my girlfriend gets a 90-93 Accord I will throw them on there, I doubt I'll own a 240 ever. lol

[Tommy_T]

niceee

[B18C5-EH2]

It was fun to lower a car again without having it be a customer's job, so it was actually fun even though there were a few issues to resolve. I mean a 20 year old car will have a few seized bolts, etc.

I think the car is looking great man. Like I said originally the Almond Cream color won't suit everyone, but most wagon guys appreciate it when it done cleanly. I think once you get the color-matched bumpers it will look more like what you're wanting it to. Just keep Ragin Bull's (from H-T) in mind and you see what I man.

To the average guy or passer-by your car (and my grey one for that matter) won't "wow" them, but as long as you love it who cares?

I love LS meshies - they're my fave OE wheel - but I think the gold Enkei/MR-2s look better and more "period correct" on the car seeing as how Enkei meshies were all the rage in 1988.

I'm glad the rear LCAs and everything went well. Let me know if you get an axle so I can take about 6 minutes or so to swap it out again.

Talk to you later bro! I'll be sure to post pics of my MOM'S WAGON after I lower it and put some wheels on it.

:)

[sicivic89]

Nice wagon! Big difference on the drop! Reps!

[GSRteg®]

Looking good man :goodjob:

[Revmaynard]

Thanks for the compliments and thanks again Tom!

[Roadster]

Where's the reps for machining these damn things eh? :D

Glad they fit! I took out a tad more than you said to just to be safe. They look perfect on it.

[d_day87]

looking good man, the new wheels are the sex. reps if i can

[JDMjoe]

Looks awesome man! Id love to have one to play around with...

[Revmaynard]

Thanks guys.

Man, I had typed out a thanks to everyone who helped. You (Tommy), my friend Chris, Tom, even the guy JR I bought the rims from. I decided against posting it, not it might have made things easier! Lol But I really appreciate it man, you did an amazing job!

[FasTech]

You know I already like you EE bro.....lol Drop makes hella difference(Great way)! Although I think I like the mesh's alittle more on it! Either way, Love it!

[Nerdsrock22]

dude. i want those wheels so bad. photoshoot now.

[quickdodge®]

It's called Honey Almond Cream.

Thank you.

You know I love your car. Only thing I'd do different is lower profile tires on it. Other than that....AWESOME!!!

+34. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

Haha, I personally wouldn't go that far, but thanks anyways!:cheers:

Yeah, not quite G, but damn sure getting there, lolol. Later, QD.

[Revmaynard]

It was either those tires or riding on my mesh rims. I picked those up for $10 a tire.:D

I'm getting in on a group buy of some Hankook Ventus in a month or so. I appreciate the compliments guys. Nardi wood grain with quick release and matching knob with custom shift boot might be next.:cheers:

What size? The biggest I'd go with with be a 205/60-14. But I think that might even be too big. Probably a 185/60-14 would be best for that car. Later, QD.

[B18C5-EH2]

I ran 14'' meshies on my ED hatch before I sold it to buy my grey wagon, and I had some 195/60/14 Falkens on the wheels and they looked good IMO. 195s are still a bit dumpy/fat but it might look better since your car isn't slammed. Also noteworthy is the different tire manufacturer's sizes vary. Falken's 195s might look fatter/taller than Hankook's etc.

I've ran both 185s and 195s and it's a tough call on which you should get. Maybe see which you can get cheaper and go that route.

[.:Stirfry:.]

looks hella better yo i like it:.

The Hankooks I believe are 195/60/14. But they don't sit very tall from the set's I've seen in person on 14's. But we'll see. I'm going to ride on these until I order my Skunk2 upper control arms to correct my camber issues, no reason running nice new tires.

Repp'd the ones I could.:goodjob:

Puregroove, drop in and comment and I'll hit ya back. I can't go searching all over for ya! Haha.
