Originally bought the car like this, Auto Trader Pic:
![[Image: imagejpg1.jpg]](http://s639.photobucket.com/user/Jcstammers/media/imagejpg1.jpg.html)
Had a few different wheels on it since I bought it, but these are the first I got pics of.
HSD coilovers and Rota Torque 18x8's.

The ride was awful on the HSD so upgraded to the Tein's and also got Japspeed rear camber arms and Enkei wheels. 17x9 et 42. Which only just fit!

Looks tidy and specs sound expensive! lol - Always good to see a different Honda.

Thanks Emz,
Yeah, I am a brand *****, and only want the best. Cheap **** just doesn't last.
Very capable the CL9 and not many people know much about them. Very well spec'd chassis, even got multi-link rear suspension. One of the last Honda's to have proper rear suspension! Just missing a LSD!

Thanks mate, its taken a lot of time and money getting sat like this, but think it'll be worth it. Just need some sunshine to take some decent pics!
Next up is the Insane Shafts drive shafts, as it broke one just before Christmas. Got it replaced, but only with a poor quality europarts one, and it vibrates. Its a known problem, so will get on that soon as I paid off Christmas!
After that I want some decent front calipers, and full stainless exhaust.

Good plans man be good to hear what an accord sounds with a good Exhaust system

Have a youtube search mate, a few examples about.
Also, the wheels are genuine Mugen items, so they are forged, and very lightweight!
