Default Pics of the 89 DX


This is what it looked like when I first go it.


15in Konig Tuner rims, soon to be lowered on Tanabe Sustec DF210 springs, as for the shocks still don't know yet.










Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel, Sunpro tach(Who needs a 5in. tach?).


Janspeed muffler, 2.25in piping




Stock D15B2 , drop in Accel Kool Blue filter

ALL OPINIONS WELCOMED

It's the smallest one they offer, 320mm(12.6in).

The Monte Carlo is a very nice wheel. Though Momo does offer smaller (I've seen as small as 280mm) 320 is honestly about the perfect size. My Sparco wheel is 330 and I love it.

ditch the tach, it's kind of ricey, and get an OEM cluster that has one in it.

Nice Hatch that is in perfect condition looks good right now, but I think you should ditch the tach, and just get the factory cluster with tach. Also Nice decision on the Tanabe springs! I have the old Tanabe Super Down Procedeo 2" lowering Springs and I love them! Sorry but you just don't see to many people using the Tanabe Springs, and I don't know why. Nice job, keep up the good work.

I did it at school cause I had nothing better to do. I'm thinking of getting a ES muffler. But for now the exhaust stays on their Hi-Flow cat , 2.25in piping from the cat back. As for looks, I can care less for looks, ricers, 17-18-19 in. rims, bodykits, JDM Bandwagon craze, etc.... All I care about is performance. My ultimate goal is to have one quick street car that can turn as good as any exotic car, at least run a high-mid 13, yet still save me gas(Gotta love Hondas ), and be reliable.

clean ride. but i dont like the exh or the tach. tach is functional yes but ugly. 5 inch autometer tach, functional and good looking. nice steering wheel. i second the guage cluster idea. much cleaner too if ya ask me.
