    Interested to see this turned into something track worthy..
    That be the one! haha its a ridiculous video but yeah I agree with him.

    And track worthy is a big ask, for now this will be the list I work on for the next few months.

    - PLM/Weapon R Header's
    - Front and Rear Sway Bars.
    - federal RSR's all around
    - RBC and VCT
    - Flashpro
    - Tune

    Along with what it already has:
    - coils
    - camber and toe kits everywhere.
    - tore out all the un-needed garbage in the boot and spare wheel well.
    - and whatever else I have done to this point.
    - Lighter rims (the roars)
    - J's Racing single outlet titanium exhaust (weights 5.6kg total compared to 28kg stock exhaust)
    - J's Racing strut Brace

    I also want to get rid of those giant overweight HUGE front seats. Get some CL7 Euro R recaros.

        Exactly, I was worried about turning out like that and it kind of made sense, the car has more than enough power for what I want right now anyway, when it doesnt, S/C kit just because.

        And YES about the stock exhaust, i thought it would have been like.. 10kg but I started reading and its supposedly 28 :| damn. so 23kg weight saving right there is a HUGE plus.

        Also, this is very cool

            • Anyway. Yay. Wheels arrived.

              Not so yay that people dont know what 'mint' condition is. Ugh. Don't you have it when you buy something thats 'mint' turns out its about as good condition as my work boots - and they have been lit on fire more than once in their life.

              Anyway. I got the wheels and it seriously looked like someone on one side of the car had clean lined up a gutter and just gone for it, 2 have serious ass rash.

              After they had gone drift king into a gutter it looks like someone THEN put them into a spray booth and sprayed a car next to them because they had overspray everywhere, heres a quick photo to get the idea of what im dealing with:



              Then I spent my night sanding, washing, sanding, washing then painting to make them presentable.



              They are just trash around daily rims so the rashing I'm not all that fussed about - but im not happy about it either thats for sure. when they are on the car you wont notice it as much!

              Anyway, got the fronts done and doing the rears tonight. tyres are being put on as I write this! They came up ok I suppose.




              Also, alternator died during the week :'( So I did a good DIY/rebuild on that shit with the help of an auto elecy mate, its all alive again! the rebuilt alternator + new drive belt going in tonight, along with front wheels and a good fitment session to follow to get coils perfect. It is going to be an ok evening.

              • Right, got a ton of work done the other night!

                New drive belt;



                Then new alternator with it.

                Then new wheels on the front.







                I'm not sure on them, however they are growing on me.

                However now that im maxed out in camber up front and sufficiently low, something is hitting on something else with large bumps. So a good bit of a grinding session tonight will fix whatever is giving me issues.

                Might even try test fitting rears tonight, not sure how I will go though...

                      Correct, so a little less camber, a little more height, issue solved!

                      I'm the exact same. Black wheels are the devil for me, but slowly these are growing on me.

                      • new wheels and new track-look focused package direction you are taking are a good progression from where it started for me. Looked sick in the beginning but new plans are really fresh compared to most accord euro builds.

                        Shadow chrome for new wheels pls!!

                          less camber wont fix the knocking, only height will. aftermarket control arms are bulky at the end for the balljoint adjustment.

                            Soon! shadow chrome would be ok. but I might just go gunmetal grey - they are essentially the same ha.

                            This^ and it was to early this morning when i replied and forgot to mention the arm that joins the hub to uca was rubbing against strut when hitting a HUGE bump. so thats why I added less camber* that solved that issue, and height the other.
