Those running coilovers, what spring rates are you running? Should I get DA coilovers, EF coilovers, or something wagon specific? I just want height adjustability. What do you guys recommend? F&Form's? something else? How bad would the ride be if I ran DA spring rates?

Do I need to modify anything to run EG/DC coilovers? I know 88's are different, but I'm in an 89.

if your going to run eg/ej/ek/dc youll have to use eg/ej/ek/dc front strut forks do to the front struts being a little bigger. as long as you dont use typeR style rear struts youll be fine. oh ya oem dc struts & springs wil give your wagon a 1.5'' lift over stock. i need to put mine on

For any kind of weight bearing on the roof racks, drilling of holes thru the roof and tightening down the rails underneath the headliner is mandatory. Unless, you're just putting them up for show.

Not necessarily true. The Yakima and Thule universal towers with model-specific clips may even be stronger, as they sit more on the edge/"frame" part of the roof. I just don't like the way they hook over the doorjambs and behind the weatherstrips.

The setup on my car (the lighter one) uses roof rails from a Kia Sportage, then Yakima towers to clamp to that. It's Ok, but I used Ford Aerostar rails on my wife's and I think it is much cleaner.

BTW Ebay is covered up with Yakima stuff, you just have to know what you're looking at.

Believe me bambam, unless you're using some sort of super duty glue, you're rails will not be safe supporting any load. Whether you're attaching kia aerostar or EDM roof rails to a wagon, the proper way to install them is by bolting the rails down.

The application you mentioned that hooks around and under the edge of the door jam, and just inside of the weather stripping; is another perfect way to mount load bars to a civic wagon.

Ok so i REALLY need some help ASAP! I need a new firewall and engine harness. My questions are, would any EF Harness work on our wagons, and also would an RT4WD firewall and engine wiring harness work on my 2WD? PLZ! ASAP!
