i guess i should get on with the update from the weekend.



i went up mid morning on sunday to run a session or two with auto interests. i didn't want to run two full days, but i didn't want to run just one day. so i contacted the dude who runs it previously to see if i could get a session or two. he said it was fine, but by the time i got there i only got the last hour in. they were running the track backwards, so that was the main reason for wanting too. i had never ran it before backwards, so i popped the gopro on to catch the learning curve.


monday was a totally different story. i didn't get much sleep, it was cold and the seenit guys woke basically everyone up at 3 am. i got up at 630 so kevin could shoot my car and man it was FREEEEEZING. by the time the day got started, i already wasn't feeling it. it was cold, the car was loose on entry and pushy on exit aka not what you want out of a fwd car. normally i would have laid down a just drove cautiously, but instead i went for it. i think over the course of the 2 days, i went 4 wheels off once, spun twice, had atleast 6 slides, 1 or 2 wheels off ten times. it was a good learning experience for sure, but it sucks to fight a car that bad. then to end the day i had a fast leak in the right rear. luckily a buddy had a spare wheel and tire to drive home on. team dynamics wheel with a +30 meant rubbins racin', oh and it was yellow. it looked pretty sick!



........

dave, that will be a nice pick up.

avijit, if you get that gto, i want to drive it.

eh squad, hi guys!!

 

Amazing pics!!! puttin in maaddd work yo!

Ballin! good stuff dave, im liking it already!

 

Lol i would just get the gto to flip it for some quick cash. Its worth more than my cobalt for sure.

I love this pic!!! If i get it ill let you take a quick jaunt in it for sure.

I still have to watch the vid when i get home from work

 

kevin's pics are awesome. it was like 48 degrees out, so there is dew all over the windows. that didn't help at all, but he shot a lot of my car so i hope to see more of it.

 

X2 good stuff

 

spin cycle.

dude that spin was so random! It just didnt seem like the car was gettin too outta hand before it happened

 

my car was out of control all day. i had just told myself coming out of 7 to "be careful" through 8 and 9. nope, adios, spin time.

 

Damn those shots are sexy Brad. Good stuff.

Edit: Video was good too. Both of them.

 

Located my hub. It was shipped to the wrong address lol. Completely diff than mine but in the same town. Funny thing is my sister went to look for it up the street and found a random package that was supposed to be for our house too lmao. Guess some good came from that.

I gotta wait a day or 2 now and then go pick it up at my local Fedex. Just glad whoever got it didn't keep it!

Still no N1 but hopefully should be here today or tomorrow or I'ma have to call them too.

 

Who did you order the two parts from?

 

overnighted from japan.

i just ordered two 15x7 +40 wheels to square out my set up.

 

Traded the hub with opiumdaze (nwp) from FL and hes good friends with one of my good friend that lives in FL and hes legit.

The N1 I got from HubesEG6 (nwp) / DC5yO! (H-T) and hes legit too. Hes the same guy that loaned me a Spoon steering wheel for free. Which I ended up keeping so I bought it from him.

This guy ruined this EH :/

So that you can rotate the tires or just to even out the oversteer/understeer balance? I watched the vid without sound, looked good. Great catch on the oversteer. Because race car driver.

Also, I might be trading wheels. I'll post pics on Thrusday so you can help me decide. Atm I'm not sure if I should or not but I know you guys have good opinions

 

Window came off track in the Si. Had to go home and switch cars on my lunch break. ****. Why couldnt this have happened on a day without rain in the forecast?

 

Damn that sucks. How are you liking the em1 other than that little issue Avijit?

 

more for the rotation aspect. i love the way my car handles now, with except of the other day. which i think was more the temperature and the age/lack of tread on the rear tires. front tires were misdated/unknown number of heat cycles too. car was all over the place, as i have stated.

forward video.

Love it! Cant complain a bit. It was having an issue popping out of gear but I loosened up the linkage and changed the trans fluid and it shifts like a brand new car. I also put the stock shift **** back on instead of the knockoff itr one. "Now I can feel it go into gear" LMAO!! Jk hbk!

 

lol easyy my friend eassyyy.

I changed my trans fluid recently too but it shifts the same. What do you mean by loosened up the linkage?

 

When the guy before me put the short shifter in, he used some bohemian type strength and actually tightened the fork to the bottom of the shifter. That friction is what made the shifter hard to move from gear to gear. It would never "click" into gear which caused it to pop out occasionally.

 

LMFAO.

Glad you like the car man. I hope that when I get the teg Ill love it as well. I drove it and fell in love with it. Plus my fiance, while we are test driving the car, turns to me and says "you have my approval on this car, this baby is really nice."

 

Nice, how many miles on it?

 

Good stuff! Tegs are nice. You gonna get an R model?!

 

No, that four door gsr on the last page. I want a four door for Hannah and I car pool with a couple guys to work. They are way to cramped to be in the hatch so I wanted something with four doors. TBH, Ive wanted a four door integra for a longggg time now. The fact that its the gsr model and its only 20 mins from my house is a plus. Well, and the fact that its in really nice condition and no rust.
