FYI this forum isn't for showing your car.
This is a technical forum to ask/answer problem related questions or to show a build in progress.

Pics that simply show off your car can more appropriately be posted in the 'Appearance' forum.

man...b18cr in an ef...i bet that thing rolls out

 

It was a good change from a b20v with an ls transmission. Now after LOTS of research, I am planning on suspension upgrades and chassis reinforcement.

Car is a 91 DX

Current(2011) set up:
Tokico Illuminas
Ground Control sleeves with Eibach springs(unknown rate)
front extended top hats
Stock front sway bar
no rear sway bar
Energy suspension urethane bushings in all lower control arms
Avid racing traction bar
Skunk 2 camber kit front and rear
DA spindles and trailing arms (love me some disc brakes)

 

looks like Koni race/GC is the way to go for me. Now I already have the Ground Control sleeves and Eibach springs on my Tokico Illuminas. however, I have noticed that some kits say they have different sleeves between the Koni and the Tokico dampers.

My question is, are the spring (inner diameter) sizes the same between these kits? and will the GC sleeves that are currently on my Tokico's fit onto Koni dampers? or will I need to buy all new sleves, springs, and top hats?

 

ha! Nice ... Looks like you beat it up too

What tire size are you driving on in that track picture?

 

Is this a daily driver?

What are some of your future plans?

 

dammnnn looks good,
what track you run at?

 

I do beat it hard, but I treat it well. That last pic was at Cayuga's last corner before the long straight. Tire size there is 205 50 15 Falken azenis on a 15x7 et 38 rims.

This is not my daily, an 08 Impreza is. Currently I am working on straightening the chassis and bodywork. You can see my left rear quarter was crunched in when a buddy hit me. Once the chassis is straight (enough) I will be cutting out most of the current roll cage and putting in a smaller one. Going from full cage to just a roll bar with rear stays. The car isn't fast enough and I do not race in any leagues so I do not need my full cage.

the way it sits right now:
fitting 225 45 17 slicks all around
doors off for paint (black)
fenders off (to be widened)
windshield out (so I can get the cage out)
seat belts, harnesses, seats and dash taken out

I need to figure out my suspension still... so many options


Thanks
local tracks to me are Cayuga, Mosport and Shannonville. I haven't been to any other tracks yet as last year was my first year in the sport. I have owned this car for about four years now.

 

Nice EF.

 

Im local to you! hope to see you out this summer. Ive got a black ef as well, wanna sell me those headlight covers?

 

Headlight covers are not for sale sorry.

Current state of the car:
Me loving my EF


Cage removed


225 45 17 x 7 et38


Damage




next:
-pull the chassis straight
-strip more seams
-weld in rear roll bar braces
-add more stiff
