TUT TUT, look at your Aaron! Telling all these nice folks you did that time with a stock Euro, getting their hopes up and such... :p

any mods that dont increase power or drastically alter the power band arent really mods than put you above a stock car. Im sure we can all agree , when it comes to euros that your X time around Y track is a comparison on other euros no matter what the "mods"

Are you saying sways/coilovers/lsd have no bearing on your time around a track because they don't give you more power?

Im saying , that in a (heavy) euro it isnt such a big difference in times :honda:

So , to not scare off noobs...you can get decent times in a overly stock euro:)

Aaron also has ghetto intake, headers, clutch/fly, I'm sure they increase power or speed.

Also upgrading suspension/swaybar/LSD will improve your time at WP more than I/H/E...

Even worse, a $7000 EG with a D16Y, thick rear sway bar and coilovers will beat both our times!

If I were you, I would practice with your auto Euro on Wakefield, while you save up for the manual conversion and all the other goodies.

Yeah, dont start on the sussy modding route.. cause once you start.. you wont want to stop.. trust me this gets exxy..

My euro is auto as well, im heading to Marulan on the 20th of nov, ill let you guys know how i go. Im also saving for conversion, but i want to get the most out of my euro with what ive got now, so that means practice, practice practice..

Intake made by hand = all sound no go
cheap headers = power loss due to leakage at the non-flat flange :(
clutch/fly = no difference on track. Good for breaking traction in 1st gear though, but no difference above 5000 rpm.
