After this i knew that i had to do the full hardcore way :D




fast forward :D




a few years ago ... little sound vid :2015 > new suspension



And the 2016 outfit :D

 

 

how fast did it go around the ring'

 

 

Nice car! Can you please provide some feedback on the KW v3 suspension? Isn't it too soft and understeer-biased?

 

drool... I'm importing one of those as soon as 2022 comes around. Can't wait.

Those door cards?

 

Sorry for the late respond....

I dont realy care about times any more ... two weeks ago as i hit the track with my friend and his EJK20 and me in my EK9 , i was behind him the whole lap and he was slower ...but only fun lap... he said that he stoped a 8min40sec with yellow flags and traffic ...so i would say i can beat the 8min30sec.


I love the kwV3 !! no for me it isn´t too soft .... we ajust the alignment that way that the EK has a loose back
And @ the Nordschleife you dont want a hard suspension ... isnt that typical flat racetrack



real carbon 800gr each ^^ from IPP a little german company

 

Thanks for the feedback!

 

 

Love this picture!

 

Time to test a new set of tires !

Nankang AR1 Semislick

 

Nice. I'm always curious about tyres that I can't get in the Continental US. How do they compare to the R888s?

 

Could not test them yet ....

but most People put them on the same Level like the Dunlop Direzza (time based)!

 

Still running the 9 !

Switch to new tires ! Nankang AR1 ! Great tire but i have to find MY perfect tire pressure :D

 

I would like to ban you... out of jealousy.

 

 

Love it , thank you for sharing .

 

At the Moment i have no time ... but this is not a reason to not buy any parts from Japan

Loving this EK!!! Keep it up! Also those CF window deletes are dope!
