yep the ugly panda works too. right now she is a work in progress. like I said before, if it's easy, it's not rewarding. it is alot of work, but I enjoy it.

looking to get rear OBX REAR BRACE & SWAYBAR. I already have, not installed, LCAs [smoked dark color] that have sway bar attachment holes.

Then in a couple weeks I start to tackle the honda cancer.

Slowly coming along.

Been enjoying going to different junkyards in chicago and picking stuff up.

#275994 Time for an update. Been getting the bug to improve the handeling on my eg. just got the rear disc conversion off a 1994 integra. I remembered to get the e-brake cables! I was also able to grab the rear sway bar as well. I just got the boot kit from napa to refurbish my rear caipers. I'll be taking more pics of that progress too. I also just purchased an obx subframe brace & lower control arms to boot - used.

my plan right now is to get the brakes refurbished with new seals.
Plan to grind, clean, primer, and pain the new trailing arms. Got some new bushings too. need to replace the existing ones.

Then install subframe brace, rear sway bar, trailing arms, lower control arms and complete the rear disc conversion.

After that looking to get the front sway bar,d brackets, end-links, and front lower control arms from an SI.

Then I would love to get my hands on some Skunk2 Pro-S II Coilovers. Hope to have those in the next couple months.

I still need to do so much work...need to finish, I mean start, the repair of the honda cancer on the rear panels.

Here is an awesome junk yard find in Chicago. Again Auto on 1300 N Kostner. 1994 Integra, it's in the back row, not in their inventory.
