Default HART Accord

By any chance, does anybody know enough about that car to tell us exactly what suspension it is using?

Pretty sure there are some custom made Koni aluminum body dampers under there.

Well...they are heavy. The Coupe is shorter and lighter than the sedan, of course.

And my own 6-6 on the dyno puts down a figure that's suspiciously close to the published HP rating, which makes you wonder.

hmm. interesting..
i KNOW the RSX's were on Motons, also the TSX's, at GT live last year. i've got pics of those. but i don't think i have any decent ones of the accord..

i've seen the shocks and they are gray? with a red adjuster at the top.

links to my pictures:

i haven't had a chance to go through all of them yet, again.. a lot of spoon cars though.

yes the RSX's of Kensai and Davis are on motons.

The TSXs of Kensi, Davis and Imoto are also all on motons.

One TSX might be running around with Penskes or Ohlins, not sure if the new owners switched out the suspension.


Again I am 100% sure they are koni's, and 98% sure they are 2812's.

I have seen the car 15 or so times and checked it out up close a few times and chatted with the crew.
