88 LXi hatch..

[hikingmatt]

Hello everyone. I'm from Tennessee and I have a 1988 Accord LXi Hatch. Its completly stock. I bought it last January for $1000 and it had 186k and have only had to replace a few things.. I'm not sure what all I can do to it so any ideas or suggestions would be great to hear. I thought there was no hope for it untill I found this website.. I'll have some pics up hopefully by this weekend...

[BITESIZE]

Hey! Welcome! What color is it? Which things did you replace?

[Rockcord]

:welcome: to hatch / popup club =D!! what do you want or need for it?

[hikingmatt]

Silver... clutch and i could couldn't decide if the water pump was bad or the radiator so i replaced both along with the thermostat

[Rockcord]

any future modding plans for it? I think when I repaint I might go silver... It looks great on these whips

[hikingmatt]

yeah, i need to have it repainted. The hood and the roof have sun damage..

[hikingmatt]

I've been thinking about an intake and wheels. I'm not sure yet though

[Rockcord]

you have a stereo sys in it yet?

[hikingmatt]

I already had a JVC from another car so the day after i got it i put it in there. I'm going to buy some new speakers next week. but no subs yet...

[Rockcord]

Best Buy, you can talk them into the display speakers for cheap, I got perfect pioneer 6 1/2" 200W for $45, and my subs are 2x 10" that I got from Car toys for $80 buy one get one free.... look here for my current setup (http://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=58332)

sounds like a good daily driver....i would upgrade the suspension....these cars handle good with a good combo and rims and tires help also.

[hikingmatt]

What kind of suspension would be good??

Took the bezel out to paint it and it fell off the balcony during the night and the grounds crew threw it away the next morning. That was when I lived in an apratment in Knoxville..
