Lowering question

[86_a20a3]

Hey guys, new to 3 geez, litterlly just got my first 3rd gen its a 86, 4 dr with the a20a3 carbd, it has the set of mesh wheels on it and i was wondering if someone could give me a reference as to how they look when painted and with smaller tires, also i am looking for some coil overs or some lowering springs, but im 17 and my money is tight, thanks for looking.

you have a a20a1 if its carbed
a20a3 is the fuel injected version

ah well a20a1, sorry, i never got to read the code on the block yet, the car isnt currently here yet.

dropzone has coilovers for our car fpr 107 + shipping. dont buy any of the ebay coilovers or springs unless the say 86-89 accord... anything else wont be a perfect fit and will ride like shit. i honestly think the meshies look good stock not painted and with a nice drop they will tuck very nicely will lower profile tires.since your moneys tight what i would do is buy the dropzones, ride on stock struts while u save money that way when they do blow (which with a decent drop is inevitable) you can buy some better aftermarket struts. but just remember if you buy the ebay stuff that saves you 50$, you will end up spending more buying good stuff because of how bad the ride will be... unless you just love a shitty ride lol

Hey man, thanks for all the help i really do appriciate it. i got the car home today. Needless to say the motor is gonna need some work. she blowing oil like a bitch. and i am pretty sure its running like it has some sort of vacum leak some where.

[88lxi-shortram]

Do you know where it blows oilfrom? Also spray some starter fluid or something like that around the vaccum lines and see if idle does something different if it does the a leak if not it's fine. I'd jump on that oil problem before it becomes a huge problem
