Ordered some custom titanium parts from Russia. 😆 The owner Vadim was great to work with and ensured the quality of the product. I've actually been following his ig account: Yperion Titanium for years and finally decided to place an order. Also got his dip stick handle in matte gray finish to...
Went out to practice shooting video and at the end just popped off couple of shots to make this photo. Got home at 12am and I just had to edit it then go to bed at 2am cause I'm stupid. Of course when I relook at it in the morning it's mid. 😅😆
Car is currently with Santos getting the fuel...
Thank you! I've been trying to help them get more exposure as I really think they're slept on in terms of what they offer to making our vehicles more personal to us. I'm discussing making an interior piece for the car so I can complete having exterior, interior and engine bay with something...
Very minor rubbing on the front where the bumper and fender meet up. I'm waiting on caster adjustment hardware to come back in stock so I can pull it back a bit but I need to see how it'll affect handling. Rears touch the felt fabric.
Hopefully I'll have time this weekend to do the front...
Hahaha thank you so much! Definitely the most "out there" mod so far on this car. I'm going to have to 2x ppf the front just fo peace of mind on track days. 😂
If you need help coming up with something let me know. 👍
Received my custom front and rear emblems from Qiasi EmblemArt.Studio. The whole process took 2.5 months but man do these look sick. I worked with Ryan (customer communications and support) to take my design from illustrator/photoshop to a physical product. Continuing with my theme of using the...
Here's some in the wild photos of the car just doing nothing. Had a lunch, pool and dinner day with friend's and our kids. Honda knew their target audience when it came to making the new Type R a 4dr hatchback.
I really need to design and cut a front windshield banner already. Don't have a...
I have the brace and it's meant only for lap belt and crotch belt. Shoulder belts I have running to the rear seat belt points. I've seen people definitely use these stlye of brace/brackets the wrong way and it hurts to see it.
Installed extended studs and the AP Racing kit today.....
1320 Performance extended studs. ARPs were still out of stock everywhere when I was looking a few months back but yeah. I found these as they had good reviews from people running into the same supply issues since covid.
AP Racing...
Reflashed to a test tune from @JST Performance. Took it out for a drive and was monitoring vtc-e actual and vtc-e desired and the values were matching up much better than before. I didn't have a chance to take it up highway speeds to see if it'd pop the p0014 code though I'll find out tomorrow...
Few more edits I wanted to share. Car feels great with the 295/30s. I'm locked in with this spacing on fitment. I feel comfortable playing around with the offset range and tire sizing to keep camber around here for now.
When I do another set of wheels it'll really depend if I can get more lip...
Wunderladen oil pan baffle for that extra insurance when the G-forces hit. Especially since I'll be running the oil filter relocation kit I'm working on and eventually add on an oil cooler. Between this, 4p and the Unit2Fab one I decided on this because of the data they published on it and they...
Alignment time. Final numbers are F: -2.9 R: -3.7. Zero toe up front and 2mm toe in total.
I like the stance but I still want to either even out the camber or run less in the rear but I don't have much room to play with....probably could do -3.5 in the rear but it was late in the afternoon and...
Couldn't get to sleep until 2am cause I had too much caffeine. So no waking up early to go shoot somewhere decent.
I'm sitting a few mm lower now cause of the tire profile so that means I have to angle even more to not blow up the Cleib lip. That'll spoon change.... 🤭
Recap on the setup...
Gabagool. I'm digging this setup. Got the stupid jam nut off with some pb blaster. Note: pb blaster that is 10 years old will run out of aerosol. Shit was just pissing out of the can until it wasn't.
I did the alignment in my garage with a Gyraline G1. Doesn't replace a Hunter or anything pro...
