I agree on the wipers. I cant really decide if i should keep them. T shade of white isnt the same as the car.

I bought these. So i painted the rest to. Maby i should have kept the arms black.

Im thinking coilovers to. Thanks for the comments guys. Keep em coming.

These guys sold them to me. I also bought the hood dampers there. Both products works great.

Im leaning towards coilovers. Lower it in the summer and raise it up again when snow comes. Im only affraid that the ride comfort will suffer. I have a wife and kid that rides along every now and then.

Im getting a really good deal on a used set of d2 coilovers. 20k miles. Are they any good?

Maby you could help me decide if i should go any lower. I use it as a daily driver so the ride height now is great. But it doesnt have that low fat show look i think. A MR SE lip in white is going on soon. Maby that helps a bit.

It stands on Tanabe springs in front and stock eibach springs in the rear. ( so i have brand new rear springs lol) I did this to level the car out. If i put on the rear tanabes too the car will be higher in front again. I dont want that look. Leveled or lower in front.
Nice wagon, I like white but I wasn't able to be picky with the color when I was purchasing.

Here is my wagon when I purchased it. Sacked.





I adjusted it up a bit since then. Here's how it sits now. Not much but enough to keep the front bumper off the ground in driveways.



I'm still on stock rims, yours look like the rears may clear the guards OK if they were rolled (mine are rolled, car used to have Pro N1s). I've got GReddy Adjustable coilovers.

I'm not big on the super low look, I will likely be adjusting them up a bit more when I make the effort (laziness lol). I've also got to figure out precisely what height I want to go to, I don't really want to have to do it too often .

Here are some pics. What do you guys think? Thinking about painting the rims fluroscent yellow.
IMO, No.

The hood dampers woks good. If i want them to open those 2 last inches i have to help it up a bit. Nothing major. but i think thats because they are new.

I dont have any rubbing issues at all. I can have my car fully loaded in the trunk and 2 people in the back seat without any problems. 18x9" 235/40/18

Your wagon looks great. I had trouble choosing between white or black when i was looking at cars at the japanese auction. Notice the black rails on the roof? They are for my roofracks so i can have my skies and my fishing boat with me.



I dont have that many interior pics. Have a look at this site. There is some of my old cars and the wagon.
