So, your car was white before you painted it blue?
Nice Pictrues from the racing track..
got any pics from when you waz at the Gatebil Rudskogen ?

Only Thing thats R whit ma eg,
Is the Rust
Type-R :-P

- Thu Jan 29, 2009 9:03 pm #93054 Nope, born and raised as blue.
But Honda is to cheap to paint the inside so it was boring gray and with the sound deadening removed it left nasty brown spots.
That´s why i painted it. And as i wrote before i chose white to get the clubracer feeling since club racing is why i bought the car

I got pictures from Rudskogen, but only party pictures. Never drove on the track since i was wasted for four days

15" 4x100 et +45, the real ones with the yellow logo.

Tokyo Express seemed to have them (probably not in stock though) and i have PM´d "vtec_gloucester" but there is always good to scan the market

Men smaken är ju som baken

- Sat Feb 07, 2009 11:25 am #94735 Incoming: J's Racing Roll Center Adjuster (Front) - Honda Civic 92-00 (EG/EK)


WHAT IS ROLL CENTER ?
While a vehicle corners, the movement of suspension is focused on the intersection (instant center) of the lines extended from the upper and lower suspension arms.
The intersection between the line from where the wheel contacts the road to the instant center (Point P) and the vehicle Body centerline is the roll center (Point B).
With the stock suspension, the appropriate roll center has already been set from the factory. (Fig. 1)
ROLL INCREASES AFTER LOWERING?
Simply lowering the car results in an increase in the distance between the center of mass (Point A) and roll center (Point B) of the vehicle, even though the center of mass has dropped.
When the distance between Point A and B increases, roll stiffness decreases, causing an increase in the amount of roll. The amount of roll can be controlled with the use of stiffer springs, but ride quality etc. suffers as a result. Cornering speed does not increase like originally thought. (Fig. 2)
ROLL CENTER ADJUSTED !
With the Roll Center Adjuster in place, the angle of the lower are is revised. Roll center (Point B) is once again close to the center of mass (Point A) of the vehicle.
With the lowered center of mass and increased roll stiffness, the limit of cornering speed increases.
ROLL CENTER ADJUSTER FF
When a FF vehicle is lowered, the angle of the lower arm becomes poor, resulting in a significantly lowered roll center.
Consequently, the amount of roll in corners increase and the cornering force is sacrificed.
By extending the ball joint of the front knuckle, the position of the roll center is altered. Replacing the stock ball joint with this product will result in reduced roll, and cornering force as a result is increased. Steering response is alsoimproved. This product is the long-awaited part for FF vehicles.

Considering the way it handles when racing at the track...



...makes it a long-awaited part not just for every FF, but for mine especially. I will also adjust the coilovers to get it 1cm higher in the front.

I ordered these parts for the shift lever but after three weeks my Honda parts seller tells me they stopped selling Honda. Great, need to order Honda parts from 500km away now


Long time to the summer...

- Sun Mar 15, 2009 1:19 am #103292 I hope i haven´t posted these pictures before in this thread, but this is how it looked like in 2007 by a previous owner.
