I think he is letting me because I have plans of upgrading the Accord even more to meet the requirements. That would be cool to have your own Accord club! I have seen a couple that have been lightly modified w/ the clear corners and signals. I freaking want projectors, CF hood, rims, and racing seats soooooo badly! And a new exhaust. I wish I could find an axleback muffler that bolts right up to my current Apexi. _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf...... (in reply to poser_pilot6) Post #: 16

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 2:26:21 AM    poser_pilot6 Posts: 1036 Joined: 11/2/2006 Status: offline Well I wish I had the money to buy your WSII off you!  Thats the exhaust I want, although lately I have been thinking about getting a Tsudo Evo II off of eBay, since I can get it for less than $250, including shipping. I have so many plans for my car...  Its just that money and deployments are holding me back lol.  But yeah, I want HID, CF hood and trunk lid, new seats, new stereo system, and a turbo in the long run.  Oh yeah, and new rims (hopefully when I get my taxes back, WBA is going to hook me up with some nice ones), and lowering springs as well.  Thats just the big stuff lol. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 17

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 2:32:58 AM    19Accord97   Posts: 3171 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline Well if you plan on going turbo, you'll probably need a bigger exhaust then the 2.25 Apexi. I would love to sell my exhaust, but dont really have the capability to remove the WS2 and then put the old one on and yeah! Maybe one of the cheap exhaust systems, like you were talking about would bolt up. I have been thinking of asking one of those sellers for pics of the flanges. Well good luck with all the upgrades! I know how the money is...every time you think you are done upgrading you find another must have and realize that you'll need a few paychecks for that! And let me know if you sell your rims for a fairly cheap price. I have been looking more into the black w/ a polished lip but I do like yours too. I thought your car was already lowered? As for seats do you mean stock? _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf...... (in reply to poser_pilot6) Post #: 18

My car is still stock height.  I only want to lower it about 1.5 inches, nothing radical, just to make it look a little better and handle tighter.  Seats, I dont really know.  I'll go aftermarket, but I dont think I want to get too crazy with them.  I havent really looked at whats out there in a while. You dont want my wheels, man.  They're pretty scratched up from the previous owner.  Apparently he didnt know how to stay off the curb. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 19

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 10:44:47 AM    19Accord97   Posts: 3171 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline Well I def. understand the need for more power...now!  After my headers and at back were put on, it was a nice gain!   I would like to lower mine to, but havent really looked into how much it would cost and whether or not I could do it myself. Plus our cars sit so low anyways, I wonder how much I would be scraping.  I like the racing seats, but am not sure as to what you would need to make them work.  I have seen a set of OBX sliders on eBay for them.  I also have seen various price ranges.  I would prolly ust go with APC's seats b/c they are cheaper and will have some quality. That sucks about your wheel.  They look pretty nice actually.  Well if you want to give them away or what not, i'd take them! haha _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf......

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 11:10:56 AM    poser_pilot6 Posts: 1036 Joined: 11/2/2006 Status: offline Thats why I only want to do a 1.5 drop, any lower just makes it too big of a risk for scraping lol.  And the roads around here kinda suck too.  It shouldnt cost too much, its probably around $200 for a set of four springs, and with the little amount Im going to lower it, I can hold off on getting struts and a camber kit for a while.  If I was going to drop it 3 inches, I would want to do it all at once. Well when I get new rims, if you want the ones I have now, I'll give them to you.  What part of Illinois are you in?  Im in Northwest TN, about 50 miles NW of Nashville, and I dont think Illinois is all that far from TN. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 21

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 11:51:57 AM    19Accord97   Posts: 3171 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline Yeah.  There are a few places with drives here that I already scrape.  $200 isnt as bad as I thought, but how much would the struts and camber kit be?  I dont really know much about the suspension! Would you really?!  Because that would be AWESOME!  I live in central Illinois so I think we'd have to getthem shipped.  If you left the tires on and what not I would give you some $$ too.  Have any close ups of the rims?  Sorry, that would just be amazing as I havent had any such fortune like this!  And when are you planning on getting new rims?  Are they about the same size as oem, or do you think I would have the get them alligned?  Thanks man _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf......

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 12:05:27 PM    poser_pilot6 Posts: 1036 Joined: 11/2/2006 Status: offline Struts are the expensive part, Im not positive, but I think for the good KYB struts, you are probably looking at $400 for a set of four? Im planning on keeping the tires I have, they are pretty much new, only like 2k miles on them.  I will take some close ups when it stops raining (may be a couple days lol).  If you want them, you pay for shipping and they are yours.  They are 17s, I believe they are 7 inches wide.  I dont think you would need to get an alignment, but you might.  I should be getting new rims before April.  Just waiting for my wife to get her W2s from her job so we can go file taxes.  _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 23

I have to change my oil, but ill be back on later....before the BEARS! _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf...... (in reply to poser_pilot6) Post #: 24

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 1:26:59 PM    poser_pilot6 Posts: 1036 Joined: 11/2/2006 Status: offline Aw, whats the matter?  Some club somewhere wouldnt let you join lol? Its just a chance to network with people who share the same interest and passion in cars as you do, and sometimes it increases your chances to get a sponsorship.  Also, you can get access to group buys, possible discounts because of a club membership, etc.  And you meet people who can help you out with working on your car, or who might know where to get deals, what local shops to avoid, stuff like that.  It isnt like you're joining a gang lol. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to vwl1980) Post #: 26

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 7:33:31 PM    poser_pilot6 Posts: 1036 Joined: 11/2/2006 Status: offline Exactly.  Hey, whats a spark plug again? By the way, congrats on your team winning.  It was a game until Brees had that intentional grounding in his own end zone, then it was all Bears. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 28

RE: Car Club! - 1/21/2007 8:41:17 PM    19Accord97   Posts: 3171 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline Actually, my favorite is when people get in there car and blast the heater right after the car has been started on a cold morning, or let it warm up for 10 minutes!  Or even those "show offs" who floor it when its cold as heck. Thanks!  I was getting worried when the 2nd half began.  Then your right, after that safety....the Bears came out like never before.  I hope they can do the same w/ the Patriots. _____________________________ Scopin out my old turf......
