My quest to go lower

[slimadi]

Looks sweet so far keep @ it

Is your username a reference to bulletstorm?

That color reminds me of a cheesy movie from the 70's involving a large black man with an afro running a martial arts fighting ring and selling cocaine on the side.

Red conflicts with it a lot.

depends where u live

euroland a lot of 4x100


op

nice updates

why didn't u decide to change pcd sooner?

[jcflowers]

And I thought 4x100 was bad enough!
I guess it is when you want 16x8... and are very particular about rims XD

This is badass though!

Like I've said before it's so much better nowadays and we'll probably see more changes eventually too. But that reds gotta go for sure lmao.

Its gonna look a lot better in a different color for sure

YEUHH HAZWAN. Had no idea you were 26. Keep up the good stuff!

Yeah I feel old But yeah I've waited too long for this! Stupid 4x120 PCD is making it sooo hard for me to find anything decent to fit.

Some of you probably recognized me from other forums or by older posts but let me do a quick intro. I've owned this 1981 Honda Accord since I was 18, and I'm 26 right now. I always wanted and wondered how the car would look like slammed ever since I was 16 and I always been a fan of this particular car and slammed cars of course :p

This, is what I had back when I was 17


Theres always an issue when you own a not-so-popular car with finding aftermarket parts. I am stuck with finding proper lowering springs and such for it. THEN Honda decided to be gay and used 4x120 as the bolt pattern instead of the more popular 4x114.3 or 4x100 -.- Let me tell you, finding anything other than stock steel wheels IS A BITCH!

I was lucky to score a set of 14" 4x120 wheels few years back and I've been rocking the same wheel for years along with slightly chopped springs all around.

My God EW!


After numerous amount of spring choppage..


It looks good.. but


I've decided that I had enough with this shitty bouncy ride and got myself a pair of Evo III front coilovers that I obviously have to modify them to fit













Same ride height, except the ride quality is 1000000000x better than my old cut springs and blown struts






Fast forward another year, I've decided that the gay 14" isn't cutting it so I went shopping around and did a few research on the hub conversion.

Used a 1980 Prelude hubs up front with 4x100 bolt pattern.




BYE BYE 4x120!!

And 1980 Civic rear drums (no pics)

The end result?





Not perfect but its getting there More pictures as I go lower sooon!
