worked on my wagon today... simple stuff, new vtec solenoid gasket, and put in stiffer springs, 350lb from 250lb, still too soft.... thinking to just go 500lb.

yea md inspection is like a 65 point visual inspection. the only thing my wagon failed was something about the rear brake cylinders or something? i dunno but the guy said it was like a $250-300 fix, and i got the wagon for $1300 so i guess its not too bad. its pretty damn clean for a 20 year old car and only has 110k miles on it so im fairly happy.

hm well the guy said he would do it for like $250 or 300 but i didnt even know what it was, but if the parts are only 30 bucks i may have to just do it myself. is it easy to do?

Not that hard as long as you know how to do DRUM brakes . Just remeber you're going to need some HONDA bond , and you're going to have bleed the brakes when you are done . Also you might as well replace the rear brake shoes and springs as long as you're in there .

Bullrider!! I'm here man, I had the phone number in my wallet and lost it, I'm going to contact a few people again and see if I can get the dudes number again...my bad...the last time I spoke to him he was REALLY excited about doing some wheels for me.

add me to the list of SoCal wagon owners...i have not posted pics because it's just my daily beater and I have not installed any of my little mods on it, due to working on my ef hatch..and saving money for an engagement ring...
