Kev - B18 EF9

[kev89]

Hi everyone, I'm Kev. I'm from SE Melbourne. This is the first Honda I've owned so I'm still learning. The car has been around for a while, some of you might recognize it. Just purchased it off a friend of my brothers. At this stage it will be taken off the road in march for track duties when the rego runs out. I'm still working out what has been done to the car so bare with me... I stole most of this info off an old for sale thread I found.

Wow such nice!

Bit of a quick update, The car has been stripped out and is now just a track car. I've done one track day at sandown back in November. It was my first time on the track but I was pretty happy with how I went. I kept cooking the brakes on it so I'm in the process of changing to 286mm rotors and 4pot calipers and probably some sort of cooling ducts. Heading out to Sandown again next month so we'll see what happens.

what calipers? 4 pot sounds interesting

We bring in a few automotive parts from overseas (mainly taiwan), so its a bolt on kit we sourced from a company we spoke to at a show overseas a few years back. It all looks just as good as anything I've seen/used in the past so I'm keen to get it back out of the track!

Hey mate! Wow awesome its still goingwould love to see it. Keep in touch. Should bring it to custom cars and coffee at sandown 1st of feb have it on display with my other builds.

Well, unfortunately the bigger calipers just hit the wheel so I've had to run a 10mm spacer. I've had to put in longer wheel studs to allow for the spacers, so while it was all apart I changed the wheel bearings, ball joints and have it all a clean up at the same time. Looking forward to heading out to Sandown on the 14th to see how these new brakes go!
