Looks good, does the console come apart to install? First impressions?

[danewilson77]

Yes. The diy files at cobywheel.com are nice.

First impression is I love it.

I think that SUV has the most bang for the buck now that they added the 3.5L V6 to it. Tbh I even liked the old turbo I-4 version too. It's also a touch larger than the cr-v now (even though it's the same vehicle essentially). Perfect size. Woulda likely gotten one if I wasn't getting a discount on the Honda or needed maximum cargo space for work.

My sisters Mom (long story) has one and loves it, she had a Lexus RX prior and while it was nice, she said it was like driving a blender. Enjoy the Pilot, our room renter that will be leaving soon (not soon enough) bought one a few months back, he loves it. I'm excited to see the new Pilot, face lifted RDX and even the new Ridgeline though they haven't confirmed when they will reveal the Ridgeline yet. My guess is the next major auto show after Chicago. Some good friends of ours always go to the Chicago auto show and I went with them back in 2010, but this year they decided to go to Puerto Rico and were tagging along. Part of me wishes we were going to Chicago, lol.

Nice Dane!

The fitment looks a little loose on the corner closest in the picture?


I got a wash/vacuum and beer in while doing the prior two this afternoon

Yeah Dane. It looks a bit different compared to mine.

I have the 1.8 and that'd be awesome :D. And now that I know it's you lol, it's nice to talk to the guy whose build thread inspired me to save this E21 all those years ago . I followed your thread religiously. Never thought I'd meet the guy who started it .

No problem, I'll be glad to help. Do you have emissions testing where you live? I have a set of euro 1.8L 9.5:1 pistons if you're planning a rebuild anyways, my afm has less than 2k miles on it, and I have braided fuel lines from a VW that I won't need anymore after I build my new engine. I'll have to look and see if I have anything else interesting. I might have access to another front euro bumper, but I'm still waiting on confirmation for that

Edit: if you want some period correct, proper offset wheels I can get these 14x6 ATS' for $900

I don't have emissions testing here thankfully lol. I am planning a rebuild in the future. My primary concern right now is assessment and triage of needed repairs and replacement as it's been a long time since I've had a wrench to it.

And those wheels look awesome! It's on the OE mesh wheels right now. Current plan is to refinish those when the time comes. My plan is to bring this back up to stock with a few mods and resto mods here and there. Then eventually make the ZHP a garaged car with the E21 as the daily.
