not a huge honda fan but this is one beautiful car..very nicely done

[06tiburonofdoom]

Thanks everyone!

Hey bud, awsome looking car what spec are the rear tyres? and what other suspension mods do you have other that the coilies? Details would be schweeet

Cheers bro

Thanks!
The rears are 195/45s.
The whole suspension setup is the Koni SP3/GC combo with extended tophats all around, 6" springs, and Omni rear camber arms. I've got some Function7 RLCAs on the way, too.


Today I got the old dash trim piece off and got the new one like 1/3 of the way on. HOLY SHIT. That thing could not be more of a pain in the ass to change. That's probably why they broke it. Haha Bastards... I'll finish it up tomorrow and try to get my glove box finished up (mounting the fuse box in it) so that I can finally put it back on!

[doug118]

if you're talking about the piece that goes across the steering column and around the radio/climate control, it has the be the hardest thing to change on a honda! I'd rather swap suspension out then change one of those

[06tiburonofdoom]

YES! That's the piece. I have all but three screws in, now... So close.
Here's a pic I took when I was readjusting everything yesterday, since I had to raise THE HELL out of it to get it onto a trailer after it got broken into. Still need to give the front a bit more love, but the back is pretty much right back where it was.
I really wish the Expedition wasn't in the pic, but oh well! Haha

[doug118]

how did you manage to get it out without removing the dash!? I could not get my hand plus a screw driver into a few places and ended up replacing my entire dash instead

Haha, I was SO close to replacing the entire dash instead of messing with it. But I figured that I'd just change it for now since I want to change to all black interior pieces...
You basically just have to remove everything from the dash that you can, get a mass array of screwdrivers (flex extension is required for a couple of the screws), and be ready to do some wild contorting while you lay under the dash and try to blindly get the screws started.
Not fun in any way!

But my Function7 RLCAs came in a couple of days ago, and they look beautiful!

[doug118]

yeah F all that. it might have even been faster just to take the dash out and then replace it. I know you got a few cuts and scratches on those damn cut zip tie clips on the steering column

[billy.]

I used to think my old GSR was low.. Then i seen your car haha

It really probably would have. I still need to finish that... Bahhh. I just really don't want to do those last few screws! I might leave it until I get all of the new stuff.
I was getting scraped by all kinds of nonsense under there. I'm sure tetanus was involved. Haha

Haha, thanks, man.

[MaxBell]

I'm peeing with anticipation for more updates. If you could just maybe drive to somewhere dramatic and take some photos, that'd be swell.

[06tiburonofdoom]

Well I'm off allll week, so I was planning to get everything put back together and get some pics one day.
I got the Function7 control arms put on yesterday, got my dash put back together, and fixed a headlight issue. Today I'm gonna finish getting the fuse box mounted in the glove box so I can get the glovebox out of the floorboard. Haha I'm also going to try to get the window re-tinted, since the last time I had a chance to, they said they couldn't get to it. I should have some pics by tonight, if I get it all done in time!

[Spoon]

Well guys, my car was broken into at work today.

Wow man... good story. I've been there, and literally felt raped or something. Glad you came out with minimal damage. :thumbdown:

[Pantyraider]

i just read alll 6 pages. all i gotta say is wow
keep it up man

[brownishwater]

Never thought I would love an EG, but that stance is hard. Great work!

[06tiburonofdoom]

Thanks, guys! Here's a few pics to gander at, too. I should have a few more things done this week! I might order some stuff tonight, as well. The first pic is from CCM8, which is quite old, but the other two were taken by a buddy last weekend. You can see the Function7 RLCAs blingin' hard! The front STILL needs to come down, too. I've been lazy with that. Haha
