Accord wagon suspension
I'm new here and am not going to pretend like I know anything about this market. Been into big body domestics and what not my whole life. Anyways. I have about 13k saved up for a a build . For the last two years I was going to build up a volvo wagon but changed my mind after seeing a VIP accord wagon. Wow. So my question is... How do I get that look and what are the parts I need suspension wise. I want to run a mild engine setup but the rest of my funds will go to exterior and interior. Please help!
Btw... I like the latest model wagons as far as I can see. I'm not sure what year that body style consists of.

Unless you are talking about the Crosstour, which kinda sorta is the wagon version of the Accord, except they went all Subaru with the suspension and put an extra big grille on its face.
Why we(US) got screwed out of the CF wagon is beyond me...
Man that thing is totally awesome, AWD wagon? There's got to be a way to import that thing, i'm sure its been done. Why did they not make them/import them to the US? The Japanese I guess didn't want to give it to us.
The regular wagon is still nice though, i have one and its great. Did you know that the wagon has bigger brake rotors to accomodate the extra weight of the wagon?
Accord Wagon SiR (CH9 FWD 1999–2001, CL2 AWD 2000–2001)
Accord wagon (JDM)
The SiR wagon model included the only 2.3-liter H23A DOHC VTEC H-series engine in the Honda line-up. The H23A engine was rated at 200 hp / 190 hp (AWD) at 6,800 rpm and torque of 162.8 lb·ft (220.7 N·m) at 5,300 rpm, 10.6:1 compression, 87 mm (3.4 in) X 95 mm (3.7 in) bore and stroke, and a 7300 rpm redline like other H-series VTEC engines from factory. The H23A also came with a blue valve cover and was the largest displacement of the H-series Honda engines. The H23A was mounted with a tilt towards the driver. The H23A had a longer stroke than the H22A. Specifications for the H23A were; 87 mm (3.4 in) X 95 mm (3.7 in) bore and stroke and H22A has 87 mm (3.4 in) X 90.7 mm (3.6 in) bore and stroke. The H23A had better acceleration because the peak torque occurred sooner at lower rpm when compared to the H22A.

"The Accord Wagons were available only in LX and EX trim in North America or just 2.2i in Japan. They had larger front brakes to compensate for the added weight and unlike other U.S. Accords, included a driver's side airbag as standard equipment."

It sure has, I sold a set or rare enkei er01 rims to a older guy (40 or 50's) and he imported one.. It was sweet he had almost every optional part you could get and some Carbon fiber parts.. note he was a older guy and lived in the country!
[QUOTE=MAD_MIKE;48677365]Are you talking about the CB wagon that looks like a stepped on hotwheels?
Accord has not had a wagon in the US since '97.
I mean the 5th gen wagon. I just need to know what setup would get me the crazy flush camber look. If I have to bag in the rear I will but with the volvo I had always planned to go static.

Although now that I see that I'm wondering where I might get one.
White right?
