OK, so I am on days off and have 3 days. Going to start the process to put on my H&R springs and get this baby low.

Also struck up a deal with a guy that has the RV6 trudual that decided he is not going to use it so I will be buying that as well.

Gonna call richie because it looks as if he doesn't have a J-pipe ready??? but won't be ready for that for about 2 weeks. So by mid september should have exhaust installed.

Also ordered my cree reverse lights and lic plate lights and a gaggle or led lights for the interior, got a few more to order but gonna get the major ones first. Gonna keep the vanity lights bright white for the ladies haha.

I tried not to do anything to this car but I just can't leave a freaking car alone.

Got the car lowered today. Broke a lug stud, my lock nut key and my ipod in the process.
Also had to remove rear sway bar trying to loosen nuts to get end links out of way and they are done. So either gotta get new endlinks or a " new sway bar " lol

Also got my cree reverse installed waiting for sun to go down. Guess the rest of led's will be here tomorrow.
Guess a trip to heeltoe is in order to get everything needed squared back up. Car rides pretty smooth got a rear shake but 99% sure that is due to lack of rear sway at the moment.

This was a really expensive day and will now require future work. I HATE replacing lug studs and HATE even more dumbasses that do not torqe lug nuts to proper specs and think the biggest air gun is needed to put them on.

Yeah it goes with the territory. Bought the car from the northeast where they salt roads.

And been doing this for so long nothing ever goes as planned. O well luckily its only money.

Like the ride so far. Honda can order endlinks so they will be in monday and won't have to pay for shipping. That will be cheap. And should be able to get a new lug lock key if not just get a new set of lugs all the way around with new locks. Will do that when I get rims after we start getting our bonuses from work.

Hopefully won't have to remove knuckle to replace lug stud because that may require new wheel bearing and possible ball joint problems down the road.

Woke up to my leds in the mail. Time for mood lighting. and the cree reverse lights look bomb. can't wait to see what they light up in rev. on a dark night.

And thank you sir, all cars look better with a mild drop IMO.

I do believe you would be #52 ^ welcome to the club.

sauceja, drop looks good. My shocks have started to go, lots of clunking, but mines CPO'd and my dealer said they'll cover it. So, this coming week I should have new shocks, and THEN I'll throw on the springs. They have been sitting in my basement for months now haha. CAI should be going on shortly too.

Any updates from anyone else?

Love the beer pic haha thats what I am gonna be doing next week at the beach in Florida. When I get back from vacation I should be coming home to a RV6 J-pipe and Trudual. End links should be in monday for sway bar that I messed up. Might pick up a progress RSB while at it.

Should be done for now with mods. Fingers crossed. Thinking of iSimple real soon and like the dvd mod for the navi.

Really wanna get rid of that OK button.

Nothing Major!!! Ive been Busy as well... Tryna Get my Alarm installed still as well as Buy all the Audio/Video Stuff to get that installed as well. Most Likely that will be my next Mod. Add Nav2Go, iSimple, PIE x3, Subwoofer and an Amp, and Maybe some Headrest TVs. Still thinking about the TVs. It would be great for my daughter but besides that... I have no other major need for them. Hows everyone else Doing!

^ well i was driving through an industrial area where the frequent stop and go traffic of the dump trucks create mountains in the road. was wondering if a one inch drop would do anything for driving through "regular roads"

ya know, the info that you're looking for has been documented by various people since 2004.

it wouldnt hurt to look through those post to actually find the answers that you're looking for.

furthermore, I find that people that ask these kind of questions, are lame.
How do you know if you dont like it, without ever trying it?

this is the price we pay, when we modify or deviate certain aspects away from stock.
if its not to your liking, revert back to stock....

but I find thats the whole point of modding. finding something different/better than stock!

I do have ua7.....
even tho my advice was blunt, it is correct.

there have been millions(maybenotmillions) of people that used the eibach pro kit on their UA7....

plus, you already have the springs in your closet.
get 'em on there.
if you dont like it, go back to stock.
simple as that.
