Default DC2 ITR JDM @ track...finally...

30th November was the first time this baby hit the track.

Very far away from being finished , we had to test the chassis/brakes and experiment the RHD driving...

Still didnt have time to install the S300 ecu and other bits , but everything will be 100% for the 21th December Trackday, to be held at Circuit of Portimao, here in Algarve.


Some shots of it...

The Takata harness will only be installed after the Rollcage.

Waiting on the J´s Racing rear wing. Have to install also the ARC front splitters.

I have noted a big difference in terms of handling from this one to the EG. I love it. hehe

Nice Car!
You should get the late version Rear bumper! Looks a lot better.

Love the first shot.
There is no better way to learn car control then getting on track in the wet.

They perform really well. I am not defending them this time that much, because the tyres were very worn out.


But there was a past trackday which i tryed almost brand new A048´s in wet and they rock. Possibly not as good as wet racing tyres.


Cheers

I'm hoping you are not going around telling '97 CW ITR owners to switch their '97 bumpers to '98-'01 bumpers. It is the same thing as telling '97 owner to devalue their '97 classic.
To the OP, nice caR and nice pics in the rain.

You're wrong! 94-97 rear end is best!
