mndude07 : 1992 Accord DX

[mndude07]

Sounds good then. Everything is cool...as long as THIS DX is mine!

I think I like this one though lol. It has too many plans and too much blood and sweat into it to just give it up. You could buy a DX and copy it and we'll see which one is faster.

No clue, but when I know for sure, I'll try to let you know. I'll be home around Thanksgiving for sure, but otherwise I can't say.

Also, thinking about polishing the 5 lug wheels I was given....lots of work, yes, but it would look awesome!

Working on a few plans right now. Looks like the custom tophats are going to be too expensive to make out of 6061, so maybe I'll try steel. Also, playing with the idea of custom control arms. They should be lighter than stock and stronger, with sphericals and still adjustable like the megan racing arms. I did alot of brake calculations as well, so that's squared away when the time comes.

Just wrecked my car...

Don't ask how. Front lower control arm is bent, and the unibody is cracked on the front right corner in several places. I doubt its salvageable. The rest of the car is unharmed virtually. So, I'm going to get a new tire, fix the LCA, and no more mods are happening with this car. Its done. Over.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im sorry about the wreck brother, I wrecked mine a week ago today so I know the feeling.

Getting another CB7 or moving on?

[MikeW]

So I guess this means you wont be needing that spare back....?

I know Adam's a true fan but I see him moving on. I dunno what to though.

No insurance? Time for CB #2?

[mndude07]

Right now the plan is to replace the wheel and lower control arm. It should be drivable at that point. Then I have to decide what to do with the car.

Looks like I'm not going to be keeping the car. I'll drive it until I'm able to get something else. As much as I love the CB7, its hard to justify such an old Honda. Its front wheel drive, obd1, so aftermarket ECU's are harder to set up, etc, etc. I might stick with a honda, and if I do, it'll be a CB7 most likely, but don't count on it.

I'm probably going to be out of the game as soon as I get enough money for a new car. Mike, your Neuspeed bar is now ruined. Its bent badly...but it did its job and the damage could've been much worse had it not been there.

I never realized how attached I was to this car until now...it sucks. Its okay though, its my own fault and its only a piece of machinery. You guys that know me know I won't be out of the car scene though, whatever happens it will be stronger, faster, and have better brakes and tires.

To be honest I've been falling in love with the E36 BMW, I know a few people with them and they are the best bang for the buck car. My friend's 328is is totally stock with only an intake and exhaust, and it is faster than the Accord in every way, even handling.
