Love them!! I definitely need to make mine lower! That white Aerodeck is on Renault Turbines, they just happen to look spot on for the car. I was originally thinking of those wheels, but changed my mind when I realised that car was in London, not far from me lol This is mine:

That looks brilliant, nice one! The white sedan on SSR's(?) in the first post is great as well. These are a bit of a forgotten car here, if more looked like your aerodeck that wouldn't be the case!

Cheers mate. There's less than 100 of the Aerodecks of this generation left in the UK now, and very few of the Aerodecks were ever made to begin with. My uncle who lives in Japan and works in the motor industry was struggling to find information about the OEM front fog lights and rear spoiler cos they're just that uncommon, even there!

The stance on that top one is awful, these really don't seem to suit any sort of poke. Crazy yours looks superb.

Cheers guys. Yea, I love the stance on mine, though I do want to get it a bit lower, but it's just that the original shocks won't really want to go much lower than they already are, so that height will do for now. Smellyferret, you'll have to keep an eye out if you're after one of these. There's less than 100 left in the UK now. I had to travel 5 hours on the train to get this one! The build thread is here: retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=readersrides&action=display&thread=127585

Just so it's not all about appearances I thought I should raid yet more 3Geez Accord forum pictures. Normal engine is normally a tough cast iron thing so Turbo: But Honda's premiere factory engine for them was the Si spec. B20a 2.0l 16v dohc That one now getting radical with: Nissan 4WD P11 Primera drivetrain inc. SR20DE & rearend because he has another & also has one fitted with Honda H22 2.2l 16v dohc Vtec from mid '90s Prelude. though there's also the B20 2.0l 16v dohc available from CRV. Old Vs Older Hazwan has been at his '81 again.

Always loved the Accord. Ended up with a blue bird instead! cos they were cheaper. Thanks for the reminder of my youth.
