Default Insert new guy title: "new guy here"

I'm new... Now that we have that out of the way, I'll start by saying I have a 94 cd5. Grew up 100% domestic. In fact, my friends will tell you, you would have never seen me driving a Honda... EVER! Then, I got married. Got two kids, and my wife is a stay at home mom, going through school. We couldn't afford my 99 dodge cummins anymore. So... I sold it, and invested in my Honda. It was a low day for me, I'll admit. I've now had my cd5 for three years, and can I just say... I LOVE MY ACCORD!!! I tinker with it constantly. Always messing with it in one way or another. I'm to the point now, that I want it lowered. Let's go back to the part where I say I have two kids and my wife is a stay at home mom, going through school. I work 55+ hours a week. I can't afford the $2000 coilovers people are getting. I've been looking at racelands, and they run about $370. That's my price range... Period. Any other suggestions? Thanks again guys, and I'm glad to be a part of the forum, and hope to visit the site a lot.

Welcome to HAF! Love those Accords.

I'm a "stock guy" myself, but others can help w/ mods.

good luck

Yes, welcome to HAF.

Just like TX, I love the 5th gen Accords (94-97)...IMHO one of the best built Accords. Keep all of mine stock so not much help in mod's as well.

You can look around in different places for a used set, that comes with its own issues as you can only guess the age/miles by what the seller says. Just another idea.

Best of luck in whatever you decide to do.
