My 93 CB7

[MarkoE500]

Looks good so far! My first car was a 90 cb7 sedan. Loved it. THE WORLDS NEEDS MORE CLEAN CB7/CB9! Keep up the good work.

exactly. my first car was a 90' ex 4 door miss it dearly.. plz make yours nice! i equally spent alot of time on CB7 tuner so true that its a ghost town but some people stay for the long haul i do login from time to time to see whats going on. I do **** when people do these iffy mods on there and im like -___- and you have to be polite and bite your tongue haha

Excellent work though CA weather = no rust, loved those factories i made sure mine were polished up nice too, and for 40$ cant beat it!

cant wait for tire to be mounted and the camber to be applied.

yeah I still have to get my camber kits off the other car. Im gonna throw them on, do a little bit of hacking around in the bay, and I should be good. the natural camber from the test fit didnt really feel like enough. But i feel like it would get more dramatic if It was sitting on real tires rather than some wood.

is this the one with 15x8.5 and 9.5? if so do a 195/45 you'll thank me later

edit:F 16x8 +15-20
R 16x9.5 +5-10

???

Nah those ones are getting redrilled in San Leandro at the moment. Gotta go pick them up. These ones are actually 15x7.5 et17 IIRC.

yea man, never had one of these or anything, but your story is awesome, and I'm glad to see you back at it.

I also vote for polished lip on the centerlines and leave the faces brushed. It'll give it some depth. Keep going!

Thanks! Yeah thats what Im leaning towards. It'll be a lot easier to do as well.

Warning: Test fit content

So I got home yesterday and the homie came over to help test fit these centerlines I got for the JOOG. I wanted to narrow down some tire options..













***QUICK SIDE NOTE: The side profile pics are the most accurate as far as fitment. I cant remember if we started lifting it back up a bit before the pics.

Im going with 185/55/r15 so I can have a meaty tire for DD purposes. Pretty pumped, Im going to polish up the lips as much as I can before the tires get here. OR SHOULD I GO FULL POLISH??? Idk. I kinda just like the stock aluminum look in the middle with a polished lip. Let me know guys! Damn this threads gettin no typa love lol

Interior Shots

So I got the best pics I could with my phone. Here's the interior. Keep in mind there are still a couple minor things that need to be replaced or repaired.















Installed my BB6 shifter while I was cleaning/replacing center console components.



When I got the car, the stereo that was in it was some janky, off brand bullshit. It barely worked and whoever installed it is a certified dumbass. Like, they took the car apart to wire it up for amp and subs, installed the deck, and then had no idead how to put it back together when they were done. What idiots. The damn deck wasnt even secure...



I took advantage of having the seats out and started removing all of that cheap ass wiring. Literally everything the previous installer touched was in some way fucked up. Luckily, I had a spare for just about everything from the other car :p
I installed my deck, cleaned up the jumble and here it is.



Notice the cig lighter is missing the little housing. It was missing when I bought the car. Surprise of the century... Anyways, I'm a part time Hulk and broke mine trying to get it out like an idiot. So Im going to have to make a jy run. In the meantime, it just hangs there. It irritates the shit outa me...



I cleaned my seats to the best of my abilities. They werent even that dirty before so I wasnt really trippin. I got my LED lights in there too



I replaced the entire center console because the other one was littered with broken clips and gross stains. No point in keeping them..





Threw my back seats in because the other ones smelled like hooker sweat and weed.



Ohhh 150k on the clock though? Ye. Too bad my old one had 200+ and was better kept than this...



The clock is missing the little door but I have a sweet replacement waiting that I had hehe



The only other small thing is the door panels are coming loose a bit around small corners. I'll probably try and reglue them or something. Not sure what to use yet.. Or I could just throw my other ones in there. I feel like that would be doing too much if I can just fix it and it'll look just as good.





I threw on my red clears too since I had them just laying around.



The next morning, I discovered this



Its the only one that has any moisture in it at all. I havent tried to fix it yet but I was just gonna drain it, dry it, and throw a mousepad back there instead of my old, worn seal. Hella irritating though. Never had that problem on my other car.

Yeah so coils need to get on there when I have time and Im not feeling lazy.

Oh yeah, I also picked up some wheels as an inexpensive space set. Checkem' out.



Thanks for reading and as always, let me know what you think!

Got my insurance money.. THIS HAPPENED.

AND I GOT TO GET MY OLD ONE BACK











So yeah, randomly found her on CL when I was looking for replacements. SAME EXACT CAR lol. Color combo, trim, everything. The body is in great shape. Theres some funky antannae looking thingy on the top that Im definitely getting rid of.

Now the interior... Thats a different story.. My old car had 200k on it and the interior wasnt this hurt. Now it wasnt tattered or torn anywhere. There were just little weird things that my OCD cannot bare to see. Being that I have a pristine interior waiting from my wrecked car, I'm just going swap everything over. Well, I should say already swapped.

I took this entire weekend on the interior. Swapping anything that was not up to my standards. I also took the time to detail everthing on the inside. While the seats were out drying from being shampooed, I took the time time shampoo the carpet and the cloth on the door cards to the bet of my abilities. Needless to say, it was a complete turnaround.








All I have are the pics my gf took while I was cleaning but it was when I had barely started vacuuming. It got dark on me lol I'll snap some finished pics today when I get home. Check it out and let me know what you think!
