one small change happened recently!

sold my ITG maxogen intake and brought the all singing all dancing Gruppe M

And I pick my RBC up weds/thursday





The scoop on the scuttle panel!


the differnce between the stock inlet mani and the RBC inlet.



Some new rubber over the weekend aswell!


was about time i changed them

[Darkhawk]

went to pod at the weekend for a RWYB day, was slippier than a greasy road

started off with some really crap times mid 15s but by start of the afternoon when the day and the track had warmed up i managed 14.6 and ended on a 14.5 which i was fairly happy with.

having to launch at 2k then slowly build the revs in first before planting it was rather annoying! didnt help my times at all!

heres a few videos of the day, didnt manage to get one of my 14.5


me and my mates starlet

me and a golf GTI

was two other civics there one was tom of here running 355 bhp supercharged and managed 13.7 and a lad with 250 bhp a spoon plate LSD and a spoon gear box only managing 13.9 so i think i did fairly well.

if the track was prepped properly or even just normal tarmac haha. id hope to get nearer to the 14.0 mark, just couldnt put the power down early enough :/

was a really good day though. plenty of decent cars there like this bad boy!

turned up ran a few times then drove home lmao imagine meeting him on the m1

and this trailer queen!

should be running again at fast show as im hoping it will be a bit better grip!

best was only a 14,5 at 99.7 had so much traction issues was well annoying everyone had problems though if i could launch at 3.5-4k instead of 2k i reckon i could manage a 14-14,1

That's not a bad time tbh buddy, I managed a 15.4 totally standard with a slipping clutch.

I'm hoping for low 14s this year

I have in my old one. Slaughtered it [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

[Darkhawk]

on a errrm privrate road? or at pod mate?

a friends got a 260 bhp one and we pretty much side by side at all times altho hes crazy and wins thru stupidity

id destroy him at pod though.. hes more of a point and shoot kind of guy. doesnt do carefull launches or anything literaly plants foot and waits for traction rather than feather it


jtizzle your on!
