Ash's Ep3 Cage fitted, cadwell trackday vid

Awesome!

That looks more like a highland road than a race track, must be great fun to drive. The car looks like it's behaving beautifully, you've done a fantastic job with it mate.

Cheers mate i saw that i got tagged in it earlier. I've got an mfactory helical one sorted hopefully from kipps on here once as its removed :) there was one mega cheap on honda parts forsale page the other day but i spent too long thinking about it and its been snapped up
 
Sweet, its nice to try and spend other peoples money sometimes. works out cheaper than spending my own :lol:.
 
Fitted a 'shift-i' progressive shift light at the weekend. I'm hoping it'll help give the engine a break from the limiter bashing it gets on track :-D no pictures of it fitted yet but it's the same as you see in Areas civic cup car
 
I believe the fronts will go down more but not sure by how much to be honest as I didn't set them up. The rear will definitely go further
 
Wouldn't want it any lower than that anyway surely! Looks perfect and I am sure she handles great. I love how everyone assumes the lowest is the best way to set your suspension - not always!

Short clip of the shift light, not the best but you get the idea. i'd have liked to have stuck it where the dash curves round the speedo but with it having a flat base it wasn't possible without looking odd.

with the ignition on the lights show battery strength and the first few seconds on start up its indicating theres 14v. it's then off until the point you wish it to come on in my case around 6krpm

A recent pic of the car. I was still unsure on whether to keep the number boards on thought they looked odd blank so added a number to them, still unsure and only just noticed the '5' is wonky but i think its just the pic

but i'll keep them for now. I might paint the wheels black in the christmas holidays too.



Also thanks to kipps i've got an MFactory 1.5way plated diff on the way

Sounds good Ash :D

You wont be disappointed with the 5.86 FD - really is an awesome piece of kit!

Looking forward to seeing this on the 14th... Hoping my engine mods will be done before then
 
Couple of videos from yesterday's trip to Oulton Park. Weather was great for February so got to give the new setup a good go and all I can say is I love it!
