Repost from FI forum:

First video post. I mounted the mic directly beside the blow-off valve and intake.

Full lap VIR-North. May have not been my best lap but it does have a nice Porsche pass on the inside corner:
FYI: 12MB

Ok, I gotta ask. I mean, the interior swap from a Supra to a Civic is damn impressive... it looks JUST like a hatchcrap..


But why?!?!

They didn't say anything about my sandles, so why bother with gloves?
j/k
Yup, full Nomex suit, socks and gloves are on the 'next to buy' list. (Girlfriend already bought me a pair of piloti's for my b-day)

I want to say the 1K plate because this car is still being used as my daily driver. This was something I had Jack pick out and, truthfully, he told me but I don't recall exactly. I'll have to find my old invoices.

Well I PM'd Jack to see if he remembers...it's a race to see what is what....

I have nothing but good things to say about this clutch though. It's amazingly light for a complete unit and can only imagine how quickly it revs in your car.

that's an awesome vid.

i pride you in not JDM-whoring your turbo honda/acura by randomly posting Appearance/Cosmetic forum photoshoots ..
and not driving the damn car for what it's made to do.

Not only do you drive it for the part's purposes (turbo, suspension, etc), you do it on a track! Instead of mountains like some of us or other dangerous methods.. heh.

Salute.
I love RR/AX Forum
