I've run the 20mm Whiteline adjustable (on stiffest setting). It comes with with mounting brackets and a bracing bar that reduce the forces on the mounting points, not as effectively as an ASR brace,...
Rotors: I find RDA/EBC slotted rotors are great value - just remember that rotors are a consumable (esp when tracking). I replace mine every year ~5-6 track sprints (Mallala).
Fundamentally, if you want a genuine handling improvement, complete EK9 suspension would offer a great improvement over just changing springs. You'll get dampers designed to match to start with...
They could be for DC2R or EG6 given that the bottom rear uses an eyelet instead of folk style mount, however it is impossible to confirm from the pic. If they are for sale, ask the seller. Or ask for...
Swapping front to rear every 10K and checking alignment regularly (maybe at the same time) and keeping pressures up is the most practical approach. If you really wanted to go nuts you can get the...
I've used 15x7s on an ED CRX, however they had a lot of offset (tucking wheels further into the guard) of +48mm. They only barely cleared the rear upper arm by 2mm from the inside rim. It wasn't...
Have seen some horrible results from cheap harness bars, so if fitting I'd go straight to Sparco. I ended up using the rear belt mounts, which are within CAMS spec with Type-r (SR3) seats.
What springs are they? I know Type-R springs are progressive on the rear and linear on the front. Having coils of various spacing suggests those ones are progressive rate, and if Type-R go on the...
2 more (inter-related) reasons for more camber on front:
1. Front gets higher lateral load because most of the weight is on the front axle. This means more sidewall flex under corner load, and a...
I'm running them - had them fitted at the same time as other mods. Whiteline claim a huge gain in castor is possible, but I found the result to be very moderate, like +1 - 1.5 deg castor max. Not the...
To everyone who's crying into their milk over Honda going Turbo (or maybe supercharged): there are only 2 options for Honda. Either make performance cars with forced induction, or don't do...
(+'ives)
* Increases neg camber when steering is turned (when you need it) - improving contact patch under load
* Stronger self centering
* More steering feel and feedback
* More positive /eager...
I had this installed a few years back, as the EG I bought came with it. Got a suspension workshop to do it. The measured increase in caster was somewhat disappointing. Whiteline claimed in their EG...
Drums don't require as much pressure to operate, due to their "self energising" nature - hence need for different prop valves. Also this causes them to not be as linear in their performance, making...
Not sure how hard Wakefield is on brakes (never had the pleasure...), but on track brakes always get hammered in a way that just can't happen on the road.
Well I've done this experiment (by accident :( ). I ran out of juice at around 80km after the light came on - highway driving. Consistent with 6l to empty - and that's bone dry empty!!!
No, not unsafe - just don't feel as effective - mediocre is a good description. After first few stops they're fine. IE take it easy first thing in the morning. These will be impossible to get fade on...
DS2500 are great, I swear by them for track and OK on road with a bit of heat in them. Can be a bit dusty, but won't give up on you and that's way more important. Also have DBA 4000 on front - no...
