My second accord, 89 ca6 se-i

[Convenienze]

Picked it up recently.

1989 coupe Brittany blue green metallic. Se-i.



started removing the bose system, so i can put a better system in.
requires running all new speaker wires.

changed the wheels, low is coming soon.
i have a long term goal for this, which will be a built B20 with a B16 head vtec. MAYBE boost, i dont know yet.
this wont happen for a long time, but will eventually happen.

this car is not gonna get sold like my last ca6.

its a very clean car.

[ItsaHonda]

So glad to see her in good hands.Looking forward to the updates!

Looks very nice. The wheels are a little intense for my taste but it looks clean and tight.

If your plan is never to sell it, then I would say proceed carefully with the mods. I've seen enough guys go ape crazy with mods, and end up with a car that's simply unlivable. It rides too harsh. It won't tune right. It's not reliable. It's too hard to pass smog. They get bored and tired and the car gets sold. Or never completed. Or left to rot in the back yard after it blows up. None of those outcomes is desirable. If you're excited about this car and you really like it, then don't change it. Just preserve it the way it is.

Have fun.

nice my 3g was rearended dec 24 i just picked up a gray 1989 sei sedan for 300 gotta get it running first this weekend no rust and straight body i will transfer everything from my lxi after i get the sei running

[Convenienze]

nice. is it a sedan or coupe?

also soon to come, some tokico blues and dropzone springs. same setup i did in my old coupe.

right now i have some POS ebay coil sleeves in it with blown struts.. that was a BAD idea. im riding in a motorized pogostick... its rather embarrassing.. lol

the dropzones wont be slammed. but will be lowered in moderation, which is good for a daily.

Nice find and clean car!

[Convenienze]

yeah im really impressed with it, not a single drop of oil leaks from this thing.
the power steering though is developing a leak, ill get that fixed in due time.
Theres a few things i want to change on it though, one being the leather seats, i want cloth instead.
the miata had leather too, its just to high maintenance for me.

ive drove a slammed miata for the past 3 years, so i need a change of pace.

[Hazwan]

What's the mileage on the car?

And I'm sure everyone here has leaky PS rack lol

[Convenienze]

228k.

also ran all new wires, and hooked those speakers up. sounds great. they were a really good find to save some cash.

BUT i need to tweak some things on the door speakers. the magnets stop the windows from going down all the way.

[charliekuney]

I think if you cut out the center of the plastic baskets in the door the magnets will clear better. Most people have to do this with aftermarket front speakers.

[Convenienze]

right now im not running baskets, as the ones that came in my car were for the bose. so thats why they are hitting.

[obd0driver]

Nice ride

What I understand you are saying is that you removed the part that usually hits the window and that caused them to hit? Maybe the speakers you have are just too big for the door design.

the speakers arent to big, i just need to find a 3gee in the junk yard to get some baskets off of.
this car had the bose system in it and the baskets are not the same.

[charliekuney]

I understand. I guess we were looking at either side of the same page lol

[Convenienze]

shocks arrived to my house via Vanilla Sky. thanks again buddy.



next up, springs. waiting on those now, from another guy local on the forums.

[obdriver6]

Another coupe SEI, where do you find these? Nice find

[Convenienze]

my last was an lxi with sei windshield and wheels, with a few other parts too.

but i found it on craigslist and knew i had to buy it.

[obdriver6]

yeah now I remember that it was an LXI. Also please tell me that you took those wheels off since they're under recall

[Convenienze]

nope, im still running them. i ran them for a year on the miata too. im going to be calling them soon and getting these
