So when I was installing my coilovers, the lower arm tightening bolt on the passenger side would go all the way in, but wouldn't get tight. It would just keep spinning, so today I ordered a replacement from HondaPartsUnlimited, and since they were cheap I went ahead an ordered a replacement for the drivers side as well.

No real updates. Met Intertwined at IA in Nashville on Sunday and bought a steering wheel for my EK off of him.

I tried to put the LS Meshies off of my EK on the wagon to see how they looked, but the fenders were sitting on the tires, and I didn't want to raise the wagon, so that was a no go. I have a DC Sports/DC Sports knockoff 4-2-1 header on my EK, and as far as I can tell it should fit the wagon, so I'm considering swapping it. Not sure yet though. I really need some wheels. I'm thinking about maybe going with some XXR 501s in either silver or gold with a silver lip until I can afford something nicer.



Here's the gold ones.



Opinions?

Any particular reason besides looks? You did have them on an EK and I wouldn't pick them for an EK.

haha that sucks man. Maybe next time.


Anyway, since the 501s don't seem to be too popular, do you guys have any suggestions on wheels around $500-$600 that you think would look good?

So I did a quick crappy shop to show what red tails would look like



I also did a super crappy shop of white walls.



I'm halfway considering it, at least while I have steelies.

Yeah the whitewalls were just a thought. Thought maybe it would help make the steelies look less crappy lol

So I decided to try and lower the wagon more Saturday, and realized that the fronts were already all the way down, and the rears only went down maybe half an inch. I want more low though lol. I'm half considering taking the lock rings out...
