I swear i have owned this car for 4 years and have always felt it is/was lower than all my other crx/civics. i feel like i bottom out all over the place. it doesnt help that i am in the city with craploads of potholes and dips. here are the pics.'

And on another unrelated note...how the heck do i line up the front bumper right on this fricking car, i have mounted it 3 times now and to no avail. one side will be PERFECT and the other trashed outa whack. here is a pick of that

thanks

Looks normal........ but are your shocks gone and your just bouncing down onto the pot holes? Is it easy to press either the front end on the corners down far? Or on the rear for that matter?

 

what setup are you running? mines that low on skunk2 springs and skunk2 shortened shocks but dont have that problem.

 

Looks stock to me

x2. As far as the bumper goes, try fidgeting with the plastic piece that the screws go into.

 

no

 

Heres my car when it was stock, for reference:

 

well actually i think the pictures make it look higher than it is cause i am parked in a culvert...kind lifts up on one side more than the other. this is my 88, but i just sold my 90 and it was, bmper to front bumper facing each other higher than this one. also, does anyone think my front drivers side wheel is totally uncentered with teh wheel well?? ive always thought i looked jacked on that side.

as for the bumper, i had replaced it a year or so ago cause i it my front porch with the stock bumper adn replaced it with the ef7 bumper and fenders....it lookled perfect til a few months ago when someone musta backed into while i was parked on the street and now it wont adjust for nothing.

 

BYW anyone notice my passenger side is rustoleum phoenix red?? i am thinking of doing the whole car in it..just havent decided yet. sux when you dont have a garage to try new ideas in...had to do it outside

 

Well if someone backed into you your support is most likely bent try getting a new one

 

i already repalced the support..i am thinking the frame rail may have been tweaked just a tad...throwing everything else off..bad thing is if i pull out the bumper and make it look right forcing it, there is like a 1" gap between teh eadlights and teh furthest back part of teh bumper. i hate body stuff period, but dont wanna cough up the dough to get it done

The rustoleum side looks a little dull. What did you spray it with?

ahahhahahaaa........um.......he sprayed it with rustoleum.

Wow, clean the birdshit off of that poor thing. And then get some good shocks.
If you are bottoming out, then they are blown.

correctamundo......spray paint! it was really just for a visual, and as for the birdshit...it is a daily occurance. i live in hawaii where pidgeons are teh size of chickens and birds dont migrate (no need).

 

while we are on teh subject of struts being blown, what is a direct oem repalcement. i dont wanna drop it or anything, wanting it feel stock..like brand new again.

 

kyb gr2's i think are stock replacements for our cars. i believe my shocks/struts are also blown to smithereens........blah, time for new ones with ground control coilovers for the time being.

 

ur car doesnt look drop one bit. lmao..
