Hi everyone
I have done some upgrades to my R... there is nothing special or nothing news but I have decided to share....
After more than 100000 km and some hours of track I have decided to have new bush...

For the front stock Honda bush set....., here removed the arm and anti/roll bar



Powerflex anti/roll bar bush



Removed the old toe arm bush and replaced with Powerflex ones



The only way to replace this.....





And now ready to fix..



An finally a set of TEIN Flex coillovers....

Burning bush!

 

Your car's stance looks excellent, very similar to the ride height I plan on setting mine at. Do you mind me asking what kind of tires those are?

I just bought a set of TEIN SS coilovers, I'm wondering if I should have held out a little longer and gotten the Flex's...

 

nice setup, seems like lots of hard work.
BTW, just courious what part of Italy Parma is located?

As written in the Powerflex manual, burning the old bush is the only way.....

I was making a joke...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_bush
According to the Bible, in Exodus 3:2, Moses heard the voice of God coming from a <U>burning bush </U>that was not consumed by fire. This occurred after he had to flee Egypt, and was when he was called to go and demand the release of the Israelites.

(p.s. you should call it a "Bushing"... confusing that it ends in "-ing", but it is definitely a bushing.)

Oh sorry, probably I have been confused by this:



In Italy Bushing are called "Silent Block"

Did you measure or mark the correct angle for the RTA?

And can you translate this for me? Its the composito brake rotor... [url=http://www.centertecnofreno.it/dischi.htm]

Yes at the end of the work I have controlled all the "angles" of my R

Translation:

Brake rotor composed by 2 pieces:

Center part handmade by a piece of "ergal" block with anti/vibration cuts,

Rotor made by a heat treatment cast iron with high "friction" and "antivibration" performances.
Recommended for competition use (SuperProduzione, SuperTurismo, Rallye etc...).TUV and ABE approved
Sorry if my english is not good

 

Your english is very good. Sweet R.


Parma is located in the Emilia Romagna region correct?
Parmigiano reggiano and prosciutto di Parma.. good stuff..

 

*** pain job.....but amazing

i can answer that, yes you should have.
actually as far as the tein line goes, i wouldn't use anything less than the RA's (based on past experience.)
