    Wandering ep3

    Hey Tomcat didn't mean to offend, you didn't have this problem so it does not apply. But Chris I had the dreaded clunking and wandery steering in my DC5 race car and the Delrin Rack Slider fixed the problem. So you haven't obviously had this problem and Tomcat I'm not afraid to pass some decent...

    So Chris is that good in your opinion. I know it's fantastic in my DC5. I've actually spun three times in a straight line. Got the pics to prove it.

    Hey you guys. Stop guessing. This is the fix for your wandering clunking DC5 EP3 etc. Put this in my DC5 Racer and it drives perfectly now. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SOLID-STEERING-RACK-SLIDER-EP3-DC5-PROSTEER-HONDA-INTEGRA-CIVIC-K20-01-06-DELRIN-/282583512564 The guys from Socal in the USA...

    Spark plugs - To grease or not to grease?

    Here in Australia re-Holden Commodore engines (V6) I witnessed a Mechanic of long standing grease his Threads (his own car). Why I asked? He said 'Alloys a bit soft on these heads'. I've been racing (not Holdens) and never done it or had to do it in 40+ years.

    Coilover choice- Yellow speed coilover

    One other thing with Yellow Speed, I couldn't run the car low enough at the front because the base of the Shock rubs on the CV Boot so went back to my old Zeals (a little shorter shock body) and the issue solved itself. Lap Times are quicker and I must say that simply switching to what I'm told...

    EP3 / DC5 Exhaust Manifold 4-2 Upgrade Options?

    I have 4 into 1 Toda. There are other brand options as well and yes you will make more power than the std stuff and it will be everywhere but mostly when you stick your foot into it it will be where you want it - working with your V-tec.

    Track car door cards what have you used

    I'm using the Sheet Alloy with the crinkle wrinkle finish and they are held in place with those self drilling screws. Also everything has been gutted out of the door(s). The windows are Lexan. I don't often have the drivers side window in as I use a Window Net. The door frames has been drilled...

    EP3 tyre advice needed

    Test and try. See which ones Turn In better and which ones allow you to 'rotate' the chassis a little to the Apex. Then allow you to get on the gas sooner...... Test test test. Personally I don't mix up brands as often there is differences in Construction and Compounds but go with what you have...

    Coilover choice- Yellow speed coilover

    So what did you decide? I use the Yellow Speed Premium Competition in my DC5R. I'm into my fourth race meeting and am satisfied with them having won 3 from 4 race meetings. This is my second set of Yellow Speed C/O. Previously I ran them in a Proton Satria GTi. Won a lot of races with them, very...

    DC5 Steering Arm Replacement

    Onward: I've received / fitted the Tegiwa Rack Raiser and the Hard Race Adjustable Arms. Next step is to get the new tyres (A050 M front and GS rear) fitted (happening now) then get the Type R on the Alignment machine.

    Trikes DC5

    I've not done anything. But the previous owner has. We are still sorting the Front End issue's. Caster atm is set at 2.5. We will get the Camber and Bump Steer issue's sorted first then but atm it's hooking up well. That's not to say things will change as I'm always chasing improvements.

    Hmm Yeah heck of a car (and my first Honda). It's won a lot of big races (read all of them). I'm having trouble getting pics up. Haven't worked it out yet. Can email some pics to you in the mean time perhaps. Just need to get it steering nicer - work in progress. Cheers Scotty (see what I mean...

    DC5 Steering Arm Replacement

    I will indeed check it when it goes on the machine. What sort of Toe Numbers am I looking for? Before it was 8 static toe in and with three of us under the car trying to pull down it shot out to 16mm Toe In (sort of duplicating under brakes).

    DC5 Steering Arm Replacement

    So thanks for the help guys. I persisted and finally came up trumps. Over night soaking of Acetone and ATF worked (thanks Dad), while the right one was a lot stubborn I finally had a win. Now onto the next thing. I reckon it's going to Bump Steer like a Sod now. So I'll have a look at raising...

    EP3 tyre advice needed

    I'm a racer, AD08 for Track and Street. Just Track and the fastest street legal tyre is A050. For FWD put M up front with GS out the back = full grip within 80m but A050' are the most expensive tyre. Winning for me = A050 on all three of my cars. A050 - bolt on 2.5 to 5 seconds a lap (no bull)...

    DC5 Steering Arm Replacement

    I'm having a problem getting the 30mm nut in front of the Rack Slider undone. Any suggestions? It's just really tight and as space is limited I can't really get much leverage on the big nuts. Any suggestions guys? I have some shorter (25mm) Steering Arms by Hard Race as replacements. This is so...

    Trikes DC5

    For the previous 4 years I've run a Proton Gti in the State Hill Climb Series here and for 4 years I've run 2nd, 3rd or 4th to mainly a DC5 Integra. Then the one pictured popped up on FB Marketplace and after reading the Spec, Wins and Records twice it was an easy 'buy it now'. Most of our Hill...

    Trikes DC5

    Gidday from Tasmania. First run in the latest purchase and I wasn't expecting this. But kept it off the wall and continued on. Spun on the next run too. Discovered there was no Oil in the left front shock! Much money spent bringing Type R DC5 back to be nice to drive fast (on going) but it's...
