So my 850 is still broke down, so I bought a beater. It 230k on it and runs like a top. All of em' I looked at had Auto's, I finally found this on with a 5spd. I have never had a Japanese wagon before, now I kinda dig it. The stereo is good (for being 17 yrs old) and everything works. Anyways I just wanted to brag to people that understand the compulsion. It needs lowed bad.
That Honda is probably the best body style they ever had. The new ones are kind of bloated looking although the coupes are pretty cool. Keep that oil fresh. That's one of the reasons they last so long. Honda's main bearings are quite small in diameter compared to everyone else. The crank is pretty low mass allowing racing engine high revs.
I am really happy with it. I am not normaly a fan of the curvy back wagon, I like the square ones (volvo's). This one is growin on me, and it drives so well. I just dont have anything to tow with it. This is the only honda body style I like.
I uploaded some pics to the gallery. I have some maintence stuff to do, and I will be doing some "adjusting" to the ride heighth. I will start a new thread for that for some Japanese content!?
Agreed... the 1990-93 Accords were the best Accords made IMO. Very high quality cars. I had a '91 LX 4dr. My aunt bought a brand new '91 LX 2dr in December of '90. I would like to find a 91-93 Accord wagon... I found one locally for $2900, but I really have no need or room for another car.
