Stuff the sound, it's the torque! Pulls so damn well compared to my old B18 and B16.

Guess cos it's low mileage too.

His is a Gen3, Looks good tho! Can you ask him what Lip that is?

New coilovers are for 83-87 Gen2 'Lude, which the car is. Custom made.




Well today I rang Gaz Shocks to order my coilovers.

They have to be specially built which takes a few weeks as there has only been ONE set ever made before.

It's the GHA KIT.

Super excited to be able to slam the fuck outta the 'Lude lol

Here's a few pics from a Honda meet I took some shots at

All together now!

[Benny]

Ha I'd actually already done that and it's been my BG for the last few weeks. Great minds think alike eh!

[Benny]

dude ur lude is so sweet

Thanks dude, this is only the start!


Right so one of my Work splits was loosing all its air over night so I did the old washing up liquid and water bubble test and found the air was leaking BAD outta the wheel seal. So I separated the rim, cleaned right up all the surfaces and then used polyurethane sealant and now I'm just waiting for it to dry before I refill with air.



Next I wanted to upgrade my wiper for a new Aero one. Ordered one up and it arrived but then I found it doesn't work with the old style wipers sooooo . . .



I used a JDM S2000 wiper arm and cut the end off and drilled two holes in it and popped it onto the old arm. Works a treat!

Also while I was messing with the wiper system I upgraded to Honda Jazz washer jets. Simple but effective. They spray a mist rather than just firing massive jets onto your window.

Part number for anyone that want's to do the same




My coilovers are turning up next week so next weekend I shall be a VERY happy chappie so long as it all goes to plan!


Oh and My HKS windmaster exhaust is on it's way from Japan!

Looks like this:



It's very inkeeping with the old skool vibe I think, Always wanted one too!

If this turns out half as good as your W123 did, It will be amazing

Nice Prelude!
