Glad I could be of help. And that's one of my favorites photos too, even though it's before my lip kit, DIY headlights, etc.

Deff one of the cleanest cars ive seen on this site so far.

Are your fogs actually yellow or do they just appear that way?

If they are, is it bulbs or film?

Im guessing bulbs but in your MRT i see you were talking about doing a yellow film on them so idk lol.

I would do a HID kit for the fogs but id rather do the HID for the headlamps first and maybe down the road order a pair for the fogs.

ya so i installed the license plate led's today...got some night shots....im pleased. Gives it an updated refreshed kinda look. Now if i could only afford fogs.

looks nice. i would drop it though. if not coils then just springs and you can use your stock struts i believe. i think i've seen some people do that. but that'll give you a nice decent drop with near OEM ride quality depending on the springs.

No no drop for her. Especially here in NYC.

I had a 93 Accord on Neuspeed sports and OEM struts and she rode good(i thought) but it was just too low and i was always hitting something.

And also if i did suspension id want to do it right and i don't have the money for that now as im trying to buy a house so im just doing small mods. Thanks tho!

yea i get what you mean. my motto is if you're gonna do something, do it big. i wanted to lower my car but i went for coil overs. wanted a RSB and i wanted the thickest one without modding that fits...Progress RSB. wanted new endlinks and i went with MOOG...they're HUGE compared to our little stick of an endlink..happy with my purchases.
good luck with your car.

Not sure why you sold that CB7 either, looked like it was pretty mint.

Welcome to the successor of the CB7, hope you can enjoy it just as much.

Looks like it's a good platform that you're working with.

I don't know why i sold the cb7 either.

Foolish mistake.

Live and learn though.

I do hope to buy another one down the road as i didn't finish all the plans i had for her.

But yes this is a sweet platform to work with.

Ok so i finally got around to doing some long needed TLC-

PCV valve and the cabin air filters.

PCV valve took all of 3 minutes.

Cabin air filter took about and hour and half. I took my time as i did not want to break anything but i ended up breaking two ****ing tabs...on on the glovebox and one on the dash panel near the power adapter.


So anyone who is going to do this....take your time and be careful when removing these panels as they were not really meant to be removed.

Anyway here are some pics i snapped. I was thinking about writing a DIY but the PCV valve is pretty straight foward and i found a video thats great for the cabin air filter.

On to the pics-

Yea pretty nasty after 7-8 years without being changed.

The air is so much fresher and smells so good!

I highly recommend this if your car has teh filtaz.

Thanks for looking!
