Default 92 Accord wagon, clean up and modify a little

Sup guys, I'm new to this Forum and I currently have another Thread running about my Accord Coupe with front end Conversion.
https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...1#post40546989
I just figured, maybe it'll be nice if I post my wagon and the stuff I did to it.
I was looking for a 4th gen Accord about 8 months. Most of them were Auto, and I need 5speed. Finally found one. A little beat up and pissing oil like ****.
Still worth it. I wanted one and I got one for a reasonable price.

Even different turnsignal in the front

Oh, forgot to mention that the car had absolutely no exhaust, except the stock headers.
So first thing I did was to make a new exhaust system.
Bought some ceramic headers, some 2 1/4" piping, magnaflow high flow cat and a single tip muffler from Lou's custom exhaust.
My dad gave me hand with the exhaust system. Unfortunately I only have a stick welder.
But it worked.




After lots of welding, grinding down and some heat resistant paint, here's the end product.




...and on the car.

The first week of snow in New England wasn't that great for me, here's what happened.


Luckily it missed the Roof and Hood. And of course Landlord wouldn't pay for it.
Oh well, shyte happens.
Lots of cleaning though!


As soon as it warmed I decided to install my Tein S springs on a set of extra shocks I had.

A few months later...
...after changing the suspension to Coilovers and KYB Shocks, putting a 95 Ex front lip, putting on some VOXX Racing 17" rims with Falken Ziex tires, Replacing the bumper and corner lights to clear and then tinting them with Amber Light bulbs and and tinting the Taillights, changing the Muffler to a dual Tip, cleaning up the Drums and calipers and then paint them Red, buffing and wetsanding the car and a NEW Windshield , here is what she looked like. My Shagon Wagon


Here some pics with black 95 EX rims and polished lip in the front (went to New England drag way)




Here's a pic with a bunch of CH-46 Sea Knight Helicopters in the Backround, just thought it was cool.

So a couple of months later, I got a smoking deal on a set of 20's. Figured it would look kinda nice. Big car with big Rims.
And it actually looked nice.



never mind the windshield stickers (back then i was into stickers)


Shagon Wagon and Wifee's Accord


After a while a got bored with the 20's and wanted to go back to 17's...
...and my **** for luck hit again. Snapped lugnuts. Shop wanted to charge me $900 and damaging the rims due to using a blow torch. Well srew that, that's why we have home depot and wife's, lol. She helps me with everything unless it's that time of the month and by then I'm typically hiding in the garage.

so after 9 hours of drilling and grinding (dremel) and 18 broken diamant drill bits, we got it. And that's it for now.

No, I'd like too. Back then I just got some of the stickers from a friend of mine and I thought it looked nice! But i grew out of it and thats why I said never mind the stickers. I did have sparco seats in my previous honda though and i had some sparco things in my accord coupe. It's just too expensive nowadays with the economy we have!

Very clean man, and big props for getting the wife to work with you. My gf just watches me fix her car, never wants to get into it.

If you need parts, I got plenty.
