It broke coming out, i think it may be held in with a bit of rust lol. I know it can be fixed i just hate being held back by such annoying problems. Something simple like a brake swap becomes a big deal because a bolt is broken. Im pretty sure that drilling is my only option. I most likely will just drill it, tap it, and put an oversized bolt into it. As long as it holds to the factory torque spec i see no problem.

yeah, that should be fine. the hardest part is just gonna be getting it drilled perfectly straight. ive had to do it before, and it seemed to work ok. you may have to drill out the hole in the camber link a little larger too.

Couple pics of the parts getter. My friends car (the same guy i gave my hatch to) Phone pics of the car at my work (bad quality) On the inside it has an ef8/ef9 hood, rhd dash, jdm back seats for crx, new cargo cover, i cant remember the other crap. Its running my temporary wheels for the crx so you can all see what they look like. Nothing special. I also got him the roof rack for 26 bones at the jy had a locksmith make a key for another 15. Also has my replica j's racing lip on it thats been busted many times.

I think the eg would pull these colors off way better than the crx just because the eg has a softer body shape and looks better in softer colors. Im not sure if the very distinct sqaure design of the crx could pull them off.

For dark colors i was thinking like a chocolate brown color like on the jetta below or a dark blueish grey color off the prius. What do you guys think? Light or dark? Which color lets here it? Or should i just stay black?

if you want a light color like the fj, you should look into og honda almond cream that ef's came in

twodoordime · 11-03-2009, 02:56 PM

Little late on the y49 man, sorry. The almond cream is a cool color, but oem honda or not doesnt matter to me. It is deffinately a good suggestion though ill consider it.
