Swap guys just wanted some opinions. I was either thinking of getting new "shoes" for my car (either Yokohama AVS Intermediates, $400 for all tires mounted), rear tie bar for my car(DC Sports rear tie bar in red anonized tie bar, $100-115), Ground Control Coilovers(Threaded coilovers cuz my Neuspeeds are WS

,$359 shipped ), JDM RS Grill (its basically like the 99-00 Civic SI grills cept they fit 01-up civic's

, $200), and any other suggestions are welcome........and no i will not drive my car down a cliff

I'd get tires, but when I asked about getting tires on this board, people kind of told me to stay away from the AVS-I. Check out the w/t/s forum for my post.

I'd suggest new shoes and a Carbon Fiber Hood

Thnx for the input i got a tie bar for $115 in polished silver. But now the hard part is installing it

Im too big and skirred to get under the car

Need a car jack

94_AcCoRd_EX · 12-22-2001, 04:59 PM

Sounds like you're happy with the bar. Yeah, a good jack is a must, and don't forget the jack stands :P so the car won't fall on you. The install shouldn't be too difficult after that though.

LOL

We take it for granted, but so many peeps go to work under their cars, while the car is simply sitting on the jack..

I would say turbo or nitrous. Its the only way to travel...quickly

slowEJ6 · 12-29-2001, 04:02 PM

its best to leave the jack under the jacking point though....even with jackstands up......hell my jack saved my life when my jackstand gaveway and shot out from underneath the car, only thing that kept the drum brake from going into my neck was the jack under the jack point........and well, i also need to pick up some hella strong jack stands tomorrow since i tossed the piles i had. 3 ton jack stands are ok!
