yeah i want to know this to
ef will give you that slam
but the da strut is longer so you cant do slam
i want to slam but thinkin what 90daXsi said..
will it last longer?

 

this is what i ran on my ef hatch & i loved this setup. kyb agx with gc coilover sleeves & modified tophats. this allowed me to slam it without the strut bottuming out.

 

i just scored me some suspension...

tien springs with tokico shocks.. $50bucks!! 0.o

beats riding around with cut springs... lol

 

nice find.

 

lucky i want some shocks
gnna ask santa XD LMAO
bored <---------------- -_-

 

a couple things, I was just told that the transfer case might need it's OWN oil...I was under the understanding that the transfer case received oil from the tranny...am i trip'n? Also when the tranny is engaged and under load it makes a noise like something is loose inside the tranny...almost like a bearing noise...input shaft?

 

i got it for 350 it had blood various other problems with the interior and ****ed up windshield almost all body panels were ****ed up.



then it died..

 

I've never added oil apart from the transmission, so i don't think the transfer case requires it's own oil. I think a worn input shaft really makes noise when your on and off the gas, as apposed to just remaining loaded.

Hope someone can be more insightful.

 

thanks for the second opinion, I really think it's input shaft myself...just gotta take it easy until my other tranny is rebuilt, I think the noise is just annoying, but okay to drive on...

how about lowering this thing, if i slam the rt4wd on the stock shocks will they bottom out? this thing is SO i high i have to pretty much jump out of it, LOL..not my steez...

 

The stock shocks are old. My 89 one's, with coilovers, bottomed out too much especially when slammed.

 

i've heard some stuff about using either extended top hats OR running a shorter shock, like a shock from an ef hatch or something...anybody have any more info?! oh yeah, bullrider, are your shocks bottoming out or is the CAR bottoming out?

 

i think the top hat mod is the best way to go teamed up with some nice springs/struts. this would get you the low stance but not slamming your struts. im rockin ksports for the ef with custom spring rates

 

Merry xmas everyone!!

 

merry xmas

 

MERRY X-MAS squad
2009 coming baby XD

 

LIB, no, as soon as I swapped out the oem shocks for kybagx's it got better. Paired up with the Megan co's, it drove, handled and sat nice. Since then, the two rears are already blown. I guess cutting the two (rear) spring perches didn't help matters, but it allowed me to level out...

 

thanks for all the help guys, it's not the first time i've lowered a honda but it is the FIRST time i have to take my GF (possible wife) driving the car and being comfortable in it into consideration, LOL. My caged, swapped, SLAMMED ef hatch is frowned upon daily between the ride quality and all the noise inside the car, LOL, I gotta make sure I do this right and that is NOT letting the wago turn into another "race car"...

Bullrider, I think you live in my area, maybe one of these days we can meet up so i can see your wag, maybe even catch a ride in it...

 

For sure, I'm always down to meet up with Wagovan Rider's LIB!! I'm in NOrth Co. San Farcos, holla.........

 

awful slow in here this weekend!!!

 

busy day. i had to help my sister move. luckily it was 40 outside

 

I got money burning a hole in my pocket. I need to find some rims soon!

 

This is how the inside is looking for now. I haven't cleaned the floors or anything yet. But this is how I'm riding for now. lol

 

These aren't mine. Just thought they were awesome.

 

the pink one is crazy

 

I've got more pictures of that pink one I can post up later. I was thinking of making a jdm wagon thread on HCW.
