Default New pics of my car

Hello guys,

Here are some new pics of my car.
I bought 2nd hand Mugen suspension and is now installed on the car. I like the product so far as it lower the car a bit (not too much), and the ride is much firmer than the original OEM stuff. Has not really test them on twisty road but so far so good.

The suspension:

wow! nice ride, and nice suspension choice

this pic is going into the archive


Question - you said that the suspension was noticeably firmer than stock - does this mean that it is also noticeably harsher over bumps and road imperfections?

I'm looking for a decent track / street suspension combination, and am wondering if something like this would fit the bill?

Thanks,
Nick

Very nice cars!

It seems like all the JDM rims that come over here come with the DNA GPs

Oh definitely, DNA GP's are not meant for Type R's.

Hi, I do think thsi Mugen suspenion is a good compromise for both road & track use. I have owned the car for a bit more than a year, but had only track once (with the OEM setting). I am looking forward to try this setting on the track.

On the road, it is definitely firmer and I did some small road testing , and i do feel the car reaction is faster than before.

I got these at Yahoo Auction for 55,000 Yen

Hope the info helps!
