Here's my ef in the current state. I'm still looking for 88-89 spec bumpers. I already have the side moldings to match though.





The air intake is temporary

I (and maybe Ryan) will be doing a "shake-down" track day in Feb. if you're interested. I need to work out all the bugs with the forthcoming suspension, alignment and 225's.

I think it's just the angle of the pic but it's an Apexi Worldsport 2 exhaust. Some of the hangars are stretched a little far though but the muffler sits perfectly horizontal to the ground and the tip doesn't stick way out from the rear bumper so I'm happy with it :p

Oh and JKGONZALEZ3 I work at a Honda dealership so I did the supsension swap and the alignment after I was done working on cars for the day.

I defenitley need to dial in the suspension though because the rear feels really bouncy and the front is ALMOST perfect but on road bumps it hits a little harder than I think it should. I'll mess with the Koni adjustability and everything on Monday when I go back to work. Plus my alignment is almost dead on (toe is perfect all the way around but I have 2* of camber on the driver's front tire and 3* on the passenger front tire). Camber in the rear was in spec surprisingly but that may be due to the fact that I'm not slammed or anything but I think I can go a little lower but I'm gonna let the suspension settle some before I try and go lower.

I bought them off of another H-T member for about 700 bucks. The sad part is that like 2 days after I bought them another member posted up a GC/Koni setup for sale for an EF with all 4 tophats with the spring rates I was looking for for 700 as well.
