all i have to say is OMFG.

 

That's pretty damn badass. I also want more details.

 

It's fast and has grip

 

How wide do you guys think those wheels are? I vote 9 inches... haha

 

10"

 

Looks like the Janusz/Shenefield Civic

Nope.

 

According to a guy on CSI...

is that even legal for SM? IE the tires out that far?

 

I will post up some more pics in a min.

Unrestricted modification of engine, drive train, and suspension. Someone was bound to step it up!

Those crazy Canadian's

 

i thought there was something about the tires cant stick out over an inch outside of the fenders?

 

not in SM....

 

The smiling SM owner, he was forewarned!

With that much grip, you could run w/o brakes me thinks LOL

 

I think Jacques was faster on his 15" setup... He was 0.15 in the last event behind a 240SX and ITR.

Couldn't you have taken some more flattering pics?

That was the new setup's maiden voyage, with R3S04s on the front and A6s on the back. There's a lot more to come, both from the car and the driver.

 

Lol, you one crazy **** Jack...

 

Give him some practice; the car is likely over four inches wider than it was previously. The first time I drove on 9" wide tires I could not even get a clean run in, beet down cones every where on the inside line.

I said it looked like it. I know what their Civic looks like

 

Jaker, can we have some engine specs? And I thought I recognized PDM Racing, but wtf do they have to do with a Civic? It looks like (as I remember) they specialize in 240s.

 

The motor is a SOHC 1.6 non-Vtec with an M62 blower running at about 20 psi. It hasen't been dynoed yet, but the expectation is for 300+ whp and somewhere around 250-275 ft/lbs of torque. It does currently feel really strong.

PDM Racing is a Nissan specialist, but they are a race shop, and cater to all brands.

 

wow, good job Jacques! that car has got to feel so different with the tires (is it a chore to steer?). do you plan on covering up the tires with some flares? I don't think i've seen any civic in sm with tires that wide.

frito

 

I'm still in awe that you managed to convince yourself to hack up the super clean bodywork....

truly hardcore....

Its a brute to steer right now. Remember, I also have 2.3 turns lock to lock on the steering with the Quaife internals. I do have some flares to put on, but I'm having trouble finding the time to do it. To be honest, the car looks like *** right now. But when the flares are finally on, it'll look something like this, only a little wider :

All in the name of speed. Oh, and we're trying to kick some M3 butt .
