Thanks man! It was between the 527s and the 530s, I'm glad I went with the 527s. I think they look great.



Thanks a bunch for those pictures, those help me get a better idea of what I'm getting myself into!

 

Can't wait to get some coilovers

 

haven't done anything new recently but thought I could get a couple night shots while at the store.

 

Ahhh don't park on top of the curb scratches man.

 

I'm a little late, but the car is actually high enough to clear the curb haha. Hopefully getting coils soon!

 

It's been pretty foggy the past few mornings so I decided to snag some pics on the way to work. Couldn't stay too long with being parked in the middle of a road and all.









1st picture is edited using Instagram filters the other 2 were altered in photoshop.

 

Well well well... I've been absent for about year now.

In the last year I haven't added much to the Fit, if anything at all. I decided to take a break from the Fit and put my money towards my gaming computer instead. Ryzen 1700x, AMD r9 390, 1440p 144Hz Freesync monitor btw

As 2017 drew to an end I started to notice this clicking/knocking sound coming from the Fit whenever I was making sharp left turns. I looked to the forums and some users mentioned the CV Axles and/or Sway Bar Links to be likely culprits. With that information I proceeded to do nothing for a few months until this week.

This week I took my Fit into the dealer and had the pleasure of dealing with Courtney, who was a fellow Honda tuner enthusiast. I told him I intended to drop my car and would like the suspension components looked over. He happily obliged free of charge! Courtney came back with a list of the following issues:

1. Both CV Axles need to be replaced
2. Outer Tie Rod Boots Torn
3. Front Sway Bar Links Torn

I was not surprised by the findings from the dealer after the information I have found on this forum. I have not yet been able to check under the car myself to confirm, but I plan to do an oil change this weekend and will take a look.

With all that said I will be replacing both CV Axles (possibly tie rods and sway bar links), installing Tein Street Basis Z Coilovers and replacing spark plugs. Whenever my buddy has time over the next month we plan to do this in one go!

Hopefully I will be posting more here soon!

 

Hopefully installing some parts next weekend...

 

Its nice to see someone actually updating their build thread! Looking forward to pics after you install the JDP(?) diffuser and coils.

 

JDP diffuser indeed

Unfortunately I wasn't able to do anything last weekend and I most likely won't be able to do it this weekend either. Hopefully the 17th or 18th it will get done, this should have been done last year though haha

 

Too tired to do a write up at the moment but I lowered the car yesterday. Too low in back... need to do adjustments ASAP or RIP rim lip and fenders (having issues already you can see where its been scraping on my rear rim).

 

Installed the JDM non LED tail lights today. Was a PITA getting the passengers side done because you need to cut/remove at least 1 zip tie to get enough slack to plug the harness in. Unfortunately I had to take the entire plastic shroud off to access the 2nd zip tie because I still did not have enough slack. Not difficult by any means but messing with plastic clips makes me nervous. The lights look great on the car. I don't have any pictures though because I am lazy.

I still need to get an alignment done and get the coilovers dialed in. Went on vacation right after I installed the coilovers. Hoping to get that done soon, but the place I usually go is 30 miles away and only open during the time I work sooo probably going to go somewhere else.

Also planning on getting my roof wrapped sometime this month. Going with 3M Gloss Black me thinks. Going to inquire about getting my hood wrapped as well because it's getting kinda bad with the chips. Thinking about 3M White Carbon Fiber with that. ALSO I need to get the JDP rear diffuser semi-wrapped with 3M Carbon Fiber. Definitely doing the roof and diffuser and maybe the hood, we shall see.

 

Copy Pasta from the "What did you do to your Fit today thread":

Lowered the Fit even more and got an alignment. I'm on Tein Street Basis Z Coilovers and the front is maxed out (Tein says the max is 3" on their website but another site claims 2.6", so I'm not sure. I haven't taken any measurements myself, sorry). The back was leveled to out to match the front but the shop claimed it could go lower. I have -1.75 camber in the front and natural camber in the rear. A single SPC camber bolt was used on each strut. The fenders were not rolled and I do scrap when I go over quick dips in the road at 30+ MPH. Not sure if I am scraping the plastic liner in the wheel well or if it's my front bumper. Hard to tell since the previous owner managed to scrap the bumper and side skirts on the stock rims and height... I plan to stay at this height unless something significant happens

Just some candid phone photos:

 

Another candid:



Kinda wish it was a half inch or so lower in the rear but the rear wasn't loaded so I probably should just keep it as is.
