Winter projects for the R???
Saw a post like this in the RR forum and figured I'd see what the R guys had planned for the winter. Any big projects????
I've been thinking of a few things to save up for this winter, no solid plans though...
- New susp. running higher rates in the rear
- New clutch/flywheel combo
- Larger rear swaybar
- Remove AC (maybe)

Sometime this winter and hopefully before VIR I can istall the junk I bought last winter but never had the time to install this last spring/summer/fall...
Fuggit, maybe I'll just leave it that way it is and start some demented garage auction at my house on QVC or Ebay.

Autopower rollbar's coming out, cage is being welded in.
Have people pulling me in two directions over a suspension. If I can't decide, I might stay just the way it is.
Camber kits front and rear.
Can't think of anything else.

#97 is getting:
-A fresh set of Kosei's
-New Azenis
-Exedy Organic Clutch
-Toda/Fidanza Flywheel
-Replace any and all bearings I find in the tranny when it drops
-Valve adjustment
-Suspension has to get looked at professionally. Some thing has to be bent or broken/malfunctioning, because no matter what any one tries my car can never keep an allignment. Tire wear is insane in the front
-Some form of tuning device VAFC or Hondata/EMS
-Tuning
-Camera mount
-Paid registration for Expo5 and VIR
Hopefully #97 can have:
-ATS/JDM final drive
-Drivers seat and harnesses
-Roll bar
-New radio and speakers
-Honda-Tech decals

I HAD big winter plans for the R, but ended up doing the 2 biggies in the last 2 weeks!
- new susp w/ stiffer rear rates - DONE - Konis/GC 500/600
- get loud azz exhaust - DONE - T1R/Spoon N1
LOL now, just have a few small projects like:
- a lightweight battery (thinking of the Ody one?)
- new plugs (Iridiums?)
- new wires possbily (NGK?)
- alignment
- new tires for next season (new Azenis?)
- new wheels (waiting for the 15x7 Rota group buy)
- if I could find a deal on a Hondata S100 Id consider selling my VAFC...
I think thats it.

well i have already installed the buddy club race specs before my last event this season so that is done. this winter im going to be putting in an auto-power rollbar when $ permits. George do you have a buyer for yours? If not im interested
Well If Josh ever decides to sell me that 23mm bar that should be the only performance mod other then getting it tuned by Jack this winter.
as for appearance modifications... Hrmmm well...
I'd like to find some used spoon mirrors that won't break the bank.
maybe repaint the front bumper- but I could care less about that.
Try to find a Moogun first gen wing in PY or a second gen wing.
re-tint the windows, just getting old and scratched up
then the maintenance/changing things...
swap new MXs from kosies to rotas.
swap old MXs from rotas to classifieds.
put R comps on kosies.
place rotors and brake pads.
flush all brake fluids and clutch.
and then do the usual cleaning.

-Coilovers
-Rollbar (shoulda bought Grandpa's used one
) and harnesses
-PCV Catch Can
-Motor mounts
-Top secret dip stick modification to prevent burning them with turbo housing
-Teeensy battery
umm.... yep, that's about it. Busy winter (well, busy for me anyway, I'm a little slow with the wrench.)

since i mainly Drag my car my list looks like im going the wrong way.
gsr tranny with a quaife
gator axles
stiffer rear springs
redo the intercooler pipeing
weld in a roll bar
and last but not least, get it to a dyno to get tuned.
