Holy crap. Why so wide? ... and so tall? It'll be cool to see a widebody CB, though, that's for sure.

It's only 15mm taller SLR than the original 195/60R15. I tried finding the widest tire I could relatively easily package on a CB. Anything wider and they just get taller lol. I built the motor years ago to handle all the beans one could throw at it lol. Might as well make the most use of it lol. And being a very experienced dynamics engineer I want to see what I can get out of my favorite little chassis. I still love my car, and she's really rough right now, but I finally got my shit together and I'm financially in a good spot to make my childhood fantasies reality lol.

I can do enough fab work for what I'm doing, I built the axles in my Jeep and they hold up to jumping just fine haha. I'm not a body guy, so we'll se how that goes. But I can weld fairly well and I have the means to fab some stuff up. Mostly the suspension fab work will just be to reduce torque steer as much as possible. I don't think it's going to be as big of an undertaking as it seems at first. Just gotta get the car back in the shop, cleaned, and figure stuff out lol.'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

I should have the tires within the week, however I'm looking at "5+ months" for the wheels. Plenty of time for planning lol. Currently finishing up swapping a Walbro 450 e85 pump into the Jeep. Then I just bought a 1.4T AWD manual 6 speed Renegade on Saturday that I'm gonna pimp out this weekend. Sparco Terra 17s, 235 Firehawk Indy tires, wheel bolt to stud conversion, H&R springs, 500x rear swap bar (2mm thicker), GFB BOV, Turbosmart wastegate, stiffer multi-air springs, 3" catless downpipe, K&N filter, and a retune for 93 lol. Should be a fun little 30mpg whip haha. Then Jeep goes back in the garage, 580cc injectors, flex fuel kit, electronic bypass valve boost controller, and a retune. Then the Honda goes back in the garage finally!'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

Just ordered my FewH22Crew tcase, TransLab Top Gear Eliminator kit (ironically with an Accord 5th gear), HD 4.0 final drive, billet input shaft, carbon synchros, hardened sliders, PPG transfer gear, and probably a Wavetrac LSD. Haven't chosen the LSD yet. Went from a 3500 tcase to a an 11k build... not sure how that happened, soooo my old trans is for sale lmao.'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing

Did you get their billet transmission housing for AWD or just the t-case? I have been eyeing their billet tranny for some time. But the price is steep, though I think worth it. Would love to go AWD in the accord. Curious what the turn around time will be.
so glad to see you back in the cb7 game.~Nick~

Wheels are in! Along with 35mm wheel spacer and lug conversion until I get the new suspension up and running. Just shipped the trans out today to get built. A bit behind with the new house and job lol.

Wheels are SSR Formula Aero Mesh 18x11.5. Accidentally went with a +18 instead of a +30... i tried changing the order. But I'll be redesigning the entire front suspension so it works out. Would have been nice to have that extra half inch of steer arm though...'93 H22A 5SPD SE - MRT - DIY-Turbo Sizing
