I would be honored if a rex like this honored our presence in our (houston) club meets. A lot of work went into this, and for better or worse, it turned out pretty well, not the greatest, but not f'ing bad. This actually makes me proud to own a 10AE thats getting restored. I even emailed a link to all my civic buddies (yea, I like shooting fish in a barrell, easy pickings ) and when I say that I mean I really like it. Earl, good job on the (earlier deemed) R-Camino-7. Let whoever owns the car do what they want, even if it is controversial.

you need a fiberglass truck bed cover fool! fill in those rivets and overfender edges. it can look good with a little more work. it needs smoothing and a good basecoat/clearcoat paint job.

actually back in the day, it was an accord. You don't own it, or have put any money into it. Why whine about it?

yes
those stacks would look SICK on that siete camino

it really looks kinda cool though... imagine when you flame it, would look pretty cool...

maybe a button that will make you run very very rich so you can blow black smoke?

I would never do this to a clean 7, but it did get me thinking about my beater :P I think a 1st gen Impreza style station wagon graft would do it for me...

I think it needs another foot or more of bed and a tailgate so it can be used to haul more than *** -and look a little less like a Fiero :O

W/ the stiff race/drift suspension and toe eliminators you can actually put some weight in the back of a 7 and have it handle safely.

Yeah, thanks for posting despite the expected flames.

So...after a couple of these...

...I noticed my rear-end was starting to get tired. My diff was basically gone, and you can actually hear my **** clunking and thudding in that last one.


Drop my rear subframe, and low and behold...

bummer.




So, off to Drift Office I went, in search of an answer to all my woes...







...and found it. Thanks Drift Office/Mark/aphxero!!!





...starting off with a new and reinforced subframe.




...add a dash of Uras subframe spacers.







...then mix well with a generous amount of vinyl...and some neons...
