Default Little more harder



if you look at my signature, I got few things since I bought the car in january of this year used.

need some work to make it my own.

So got the hood and rims, and after that I added on the H&R springs, remembering the prelude days way back that H&R made some very good linear springs and they were part of one of the biggest German OEM manufacturer of the OEM springs.

So the car dropped around about an inch all around, and now it looks completely how the car should of came out from Honda. Not too low, not too high, clears crazy drops and curbs and what not.

So the test. I went to see how it handles. And it's good! The car handles a lot softer on the highway driving, yet it still retained the harshness when pushed and it's razor sharp like how it was stock. It did bottom out the rear struts couple of times, but that's only because I was going a little faster than I should through the speed bumps, which was one of those narrow and tall ones.

anyway, here are some pictures. I've taken all my emblems out to reveal Honda's secret design - Speed holes. Yes folks, that's what I'm calling it and I'm sticking to that.





they had the figure 8 course, so I had some fun.

Nice! How do you like the wheels? How do they fare with the drop?

great. 245/40/17's on the rear, 225/45/17's in the front, still got room front and rear.

rims are great, it looks great, and it's super cheap.

I'm burning my $40 tires right now, so I didn't mind doing some drifting out of the corner at the track.

it was a blast! I had fun in the Evo, but I've never got to get the rear kicked out so controllably.

wish I had some keyhole blocker or those things that covers up the keyholes.

Keyhole covers?

I can't seem to find the cheap ones.

All red interior...I'm jealous! Good to see you're happy with the suspension.
