i changed so much stuff i dont know what just bushings would do. all i know is she drives as good, if not better then new. no thumps, squeeks, rattles, tight as hell and drives great. well worth the upgrade.

price tag (best remembered guess) - bushings - 450 springs- 200 struts - 300 rack rebuild - 90 axel rebuilds - 70 camber kit - 100 bearings - 150 balljoints/rod ends - 150 brake lines - 100 misc (paint, boots, pads, bolts,etc.) - 50 to 100 labor - 80.00 (installed bushings at shop) alignment - 65.00 wheel/tire combo - 700 end links - 30 strut bars - 230 .. damn, it adds up quick. at least i can deduct a percent of this on my taxes rides like a s2000 to me. a bit bouncy but turns on a dime and gives you change

Cadster: Great shots...thanks for sharing. You've set the standard for me and my 89, bro.
You need this spare exhaust manifold heat shield I have sitting on my shelf. I had applied ceramic coating on the front of it back when I first started the business. It's yours for the low, low price of 20-bucks. It looks better than new looking, with a bright, galvanized-like finish. I'd really help clean up your underhood.

my 2ws rack was already done when i test drove several new cars (i was going to trade the lude), but decided to just rebuild this prelude. i have owned it for several years as a gas saving daily driver while i built trucks. this is my first 'ricer' project i had plans to H22 this car, but loosing all the cars ammenities prompted me to just boost my engine, but i need to rebuild it to be a player. i have sence found out its cheaper to buy a JDM block then to rebuild mine. this will be phase III of the whole rebuild.

Awesome man.I bet it handles so different now.Im in the process of doing all upper and lower ball joints and bushings right now.I got a lower ball joint that wont break loose...it sucks, I hate ball joints.
I noticed you got moog ball joints but the boots are blue.I also got all new moog ball joints but there just black. Is that some kind of boot protector thing or did you paint them ? Let me know. |

Jesus CAD...you had your hands full. That is awesome work, and I'm jealous to say that I wouldn't take on that task in my driveway...Probably a seized bolt nightmare. I can do some stuff myself, but that...I'd need a hand with. Very nice work, and it looks GREAT
Loving the rims too...
