I'm thinking come July I'm going to get some JRZ coilovers. After going to the ZDayz and riding on the Dargons Tail ( a serious moutain here) I need something with a lot better damping characteristics.

Good observation Chris, but they took good care of the car and nothing was damaged or affected. The car is feeling and running better than ever. I'm sure they knew about this.

I'm excited to hear about how those JRZ Coilovers work out for you.

Keep me posted!

Recent Track Testing with New Tune Set-up
 
Hello forum friends,

I just wanted to share a video and tell you about some great progress on my daily driver/ track build. Finally after installing the LSD, I had the opportunity to test the car's performance gains on the track. Everything felt natural and progressive that day at ButtonWillow Raceway Park. My soul purpose was to see the improvements from my new square set-up of 275/35/19, and the recently installed Quaife LSD. The changes made the most dramatic improvements of my car to date. I was able to shave over 3 seconds off my car instantly. The power mods such as ECU tuning, Lightened Flywheel, and Exhaust/Intake finally felt apparent. I had consistent traction, power to the ground that was missing from before. I felt more confident and excited to put the power down on the track. Also with increased traction/grip/performance, I was able to get deeper into the turns and feel the power constantly engaging the ground. Here is my video from 6-1-12. New personal record: 2:04 Thanks for checking out my footage and photos~

Cheers

I was at Chuckwalla raceways this weekend and witnessed a Civic EG Hatchback burst into flames.. It was burnt down to nothing... Nothing could be saved, not even his cell phone.. Thank God you still have something left of your vehicle.

You're welcome bud. I'm sure the body shop could help you out. Keep me posted, and I will be checking in on your thread.

Thank you! :0 The bumper ducts make good power with addition of K & N drop in filters.

My car produces 315 whp (100 Octane) 300 WHP (91 Octane). The flywheel Hp was read on the Dynometer at 370 HP. (100 Octane) 360 HP at the flywheel with 91 octane.

I however need to re-tune with my addition of the LSD. I'm quite sure I'm putting down more power to the wheels.

I have Uprev ECU Tune, k and N drop in filters (Mines intake Ducts) Stock header with Invidia Test Pipes, Full HKS Hi power exhaust, RPS/SZ Clutch and Flywheel. My car dynos at 315 WHP, with those mods.

VDC_OFF 06-11-2012 04:43 PM

oh ok, makes sense now. I thought 370 was at the wheels :P Im making about the same with intakes and exhaust. I have the Top Secret intakes and they stop right at the bumper duct spot so they will be perfect ;)
