I specified different spring rates to what is supplied normally, and I also got some pillowball front top mounts in on the deal as I have spent a lot of money with one of the UK distributers Coilovers: Front: (Brake lines are just zip tied in place at the moment as I have new front brakes with braided lines which will be bolted when they are fitted) Rear: Before: After: (Not too low as I have to get on the drive) What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?

When we did the Pro Care stages rally, it was absolutely waterlogged. We put road tyres on for stage 1, and had a spin (if you remember) Threw the R888s back on, and had no problems for the rest of the day. I think theye a lot better than OK ------------------------------------------------------------

When there is standing water, there is a point where the lack of cuts in the tread cannot get rid of the water and you aquaplane. Its the only drawback to the 888. A normal road tyre V 888 in the wet, is the compund of the rubber. Obviously in the wet you cant overheat them and its plain to see a road tyre can disperse more water than an 888. A soft road tyre will be better when there is a lot of standing water. ...dont get me wrong, if its just "wet" there is a point where the 888 will be better.

Inner boot skin has been cut out, and frame drilled... Charcoal cannister has been removed... PAS removed, inc pump, cast brackets, fluid reservoir and hoses... I hope this has saved another 10-15kgs, plus it has given the car a bit more feel through the steering, and made a few more bhp from not having to drive the PAS pump 8) What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?

To get the most out of a race fuel ie 105RON the car needs to be mapped with extra advance on the ignition timing - only problem then is thats all it will run on, and race fuel is £3+/litre Might get a few BHP from it, but a turbo'd car would get more - the starion makes 100bhp more on race fuel What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?

In conjunction with that, Ive also bought the following... An Edelbrock inlet manifold - runners are 1.5" longer than std to help flow in to the head: Some Brian Crower Stage 2 Cams with uprated valve springs and titanium retainers: Plus Ive also got an alloy high flow fuel rail to fit, with adjustable pressure regulator. Coupled to that, and left over from the Silvia, Ill also be fitting a high flow fuel pump with swirl pot in a 2 pump system to reduce the risk of fuel surge.

Firstly, fitted a fuel pressure gauge - this to go with the adjustable FPR and fuel rail Ive added... Also as an upgrade to the fuel system, I still had the high flow pump I used on the old Silvia racecar and the swirl pot. So, Ive bought a load of braided fuel hose, and Ill be fitting the swirl pot and pump over the up and coming weeks - the idea being that I can keep less fuel in the car without the risk of fuel surge Other items "in the post" are a pair of Brian Crower stage 2 cams and an Edelbrock inlet manifold - Ill get the manifold fitted when it turns up, but the cams will be fitted when the car goes to get the Hondata S300 ECU mapped in July Plans this weekend (weather dependant) are to get the doors off, and make swiss cheese of the frames with a hole saw - again to try and shed more weight!

TBH there wasnt much left of the after I fitted the windows, but every little helps Swiss cheese... ..and with some silver tape and the door card back on... And with the weather being so nice I gave her a clean too - still looks ok after a year of competition, all be it, the front bumper is a bit peppered now...

Door / window trims refitted, bent these when fitting the poly windows, but managed to get another set, they just tidy the car up a bit. Holder for detatchable steering wheel. New inlet manifold fitted with thermal gasket. New cams and vernier pulleys - cant see the cams, but they are in there New layout for the intake - the manifold sits lower than std so a custom air intake pipe is required.

Had the ECU fitted a while back, but at the time of mapping my injector duty cycle was creeping up past 90% so Ideally I needed some bigger ones. Going too big can have detremental effects, so I did some research and found that some other Hondas used bigger injectors, offering the same loom plug and resistance. So, I foudn a set on ebay, got them cleaned and flow tested, then fitted them and took the car to Dan Dan0h at Auto Sport North for a bit of tweeking. All figures are at the wheels - no guesstimate flywheel figures. No more fuel was added either, just the duty cycle reduced to get the correct spray pattern... Graphs... After fitting S300 ECU with 240cc injectors... Vtec comes in at 5200rpm. After fitting Prelude injectors and a little tweek on the map for some cam movement. So, a big thumbs up to Dan for twweking the map and finding another 11bhp - I could really tell there was a difference between driving the car there, and then driving it home. If anyone is after someone to do any ECU mapping, I can highly recommend Dan, and I know of at least 3 other guys I race with (who live locally) who will be paying him a visit soon for some fettling What If There Were No Hypothetical Questions?
