Are you lowered here for photos? How can you use any curb with the height you have?

No that's static height. Brackets are as high as they can go too. We may have to raise the car a bit but so far so good. It's not my car, I just work on it. :p Ran it at njmp lightning yesterday and the splitter was working pretty well. Need to stiffen it up a bit though. Ran into some other issues so we didn't get as much time as we hoped. We'll make the changes needed to fix a few issues and try again in a few weeks.

I am running at 3.25" and have a few "bites" out of mine after 8 races.

My springs are 650F/950R

Is this a wheel-to-wheel car? I am thinking that even if you avoid curbing, and stay on track, your splitter height looks like it's below the front rim height. This means during a tire failure you are skating on the front splitter. That could be suboptimal in a number of situations.

Build a splitter above the front rim line because tire failure is an issue, said no man ever.

Hi Guys-
Here and now is probably as good a place as any to announce that we-
Special Projects Motor Sports
Are at present modifying our race proven splitter kit designs to once again fit within some of the mis guided rule sets that certain bodies have come up with. As usual with no consultation with people in the industry that they claim to support, who might know a little of what they are talking about?
However, apart from the Time Attack organizers who "Get it" and thank God for their common sense rules.
We are re-designing to comply with some Road Racing organizations rules- The Air Dams and Splitter for the EG & EK Civic, the 94-'97 US Spec. Integra and the '98-'01 US Spec. Integra.
We also have available - Replacement Wing Brackets and uprights for the P1 Spec Rear GT Wings and BTCC Style H/B Rear Wings. These will bring your wing back within the confines of the new rule set without reducing the handling effect.

For further details contact me at-

Nice Job!
If you're running 15" wheels then probably the 4" Side Skirts will be the best to keep the fast moving air from your splitter under the car. We have a Rear Diffuser for the EG & EK Coupe or H/B but frankly I would recommend you look at fitting either our BTCC Style rear Wing or our JDM Type R H/B style wing. You will gain far more handling advantage from that than you will with the Diffuser. Unless you are running a full flat under tray the Diffuser will only serve to give the car a little more High Speed stability. Whereas the benefits of the Splitter, Side Skirts and Wing will be felt immediately.
Several companies sell our Race proven SPMS P1 Spec Wing which is about 1/3rd the price of many of the Beautiful Carbon Fiber "Bling" versions out there... But only I can offer the HT Member Discount! Just mention it when you call.
Our Wing profile is probably the best available for the type of cars we run and the type of racing we do- Just ask the fast guys!

I don't get to come on here often these days... So I hope I'm not hogging the thread? Yes we are at the moment working on the Prototype molds for the 8th Gen Civics - SPMS P1 Spec. Splitter Kit, Rear Wing Combo. We are also preparing the New Splitter Kit for the '02-'04 and '04-'06 versions of the DC5 RSX. Thanks to those who are, and have provided Doner Cars.
New released will be announced soon.

I lost my splitter during the last race weekend. Large off-roading session. Strangely enough the impact absorbed by the splitter saved the header and most of the brake ducting.

The air dam sheered in 2 places but was able to be repaired by a fiberglass repair kit from Oreilly's, and the hardware needed some slight reshaping but was able to be reused. Very pleased.

I liked how Kiwi used 2 pieces for the splitter board, however I did 1 single piece for the replacement. I'm sure that will affect how it rips apart the next time the car goes for a trip through the rough.

I have just loved this aero setup! Car has felt great back on the track I'm most familiar with, so much more than previously. And at ITR Expo at VIR this year, very pleased! Although I did have an off...I'll be ordering a couple blades to have on hand, and likely another bracket set as mine did suffer minor stress from the off. But everything worked flawlessly and in the manner designed!

Airdam and splitter are the standard time attack package. Sides are 4 inch. And thank you!

Here is my setup. I wish I had some kind of benchmark time before and after at a track, but I've only ran Buttonwillow one time at SLB 2016 with a 1:56.9, and my motor blew up at GTA Nola Motorsports Park after 2 laps which I had a benchmark time of 1:55 last year without aero. I haven't ran the car at a different track since the install. The wing is 58", skirts are 5", and splitter is my own at 5" birch 1/2 ply extended outwards evenly around the front lip. It sits at 5" off the ground too which helps me hop corners. I'm not sure if I can lower it much more. This year should yield better results I think as I fine tune the car to compare times. I think cable support might be needed, and I need a way to seal the air dam without using tape preferably.
