    KW Variant 3 - Reviews

    I understand what you mean. In my case I needed to lower it to get more camber to clear my wheel offset. I'm surprised I never saw any reviews from yourself regarding the KW v3s. Would've been nice to hear your opinions before I bought mine. Haha.

    KW Variant 3 - Reviews

    Rui , you are right about the recommended distance but that is if you measure from hub center. I started measuring at the top point of the rim center cap (ie top edge of hub ring), so I am still within specs. Wasn't sure how to measure exactly from hub center with the rims on.

    KW Variant 2 or 3 Experience

    Saw this thread after posting to the older one. Oh well that one came up on Google first.

    KW Variant 3 - Reviews

    Since there doesn't seem to be a lot of reviews for civics with Kw v3's and I know how hard it is to decide on a suspension without at least reading a few subjective user reviews on the Internet, I've decided to post my comments. Old setup: Spoon Street dampers (non-adjustable) Tanabe super...

    Comptech ice box

    Yup, that's true. Except no one could guarantee a perfect fit to the samco intake arm, hence what I did.

    Post Your Car & Mods!

    I'm surprised a lot of members don't blank-out or censor their license plates. Is theft not an issue in your parts of the world?

    Comptech ice box

    I finally received the CompTech IceBox (for Integra) and the Samco Intake Arm (also for DC2). Installing it took a little longer than expected, mainly due to mocking up the location of the IceBox and the trumpet/tube. How close the icebox sits against the coolant reservoir was also quite...

    Comptech ice box

    Weird, my earlier post didn't make it on here. Let me try again. Here's some info from CompTech, regarding differences/simliarities between the Civic SI and Integra IceBoxes: [Email to CompTech and their reply]: In terms of actual dimensions, they would be the same. It's just the...

    My Comptech SRI + ICE BOX intake installation

    Looking back at your pics Jugbugz, I can see how tight your icebox sits against your coolant resevoir. When I was installing mine today I was like "Damn this is a very very tight fit". I actually had to slightly bend my coolant resevior metal tab/holder slightly forward (towards the front of...

    Clutch + Flywheel

    I recommend Toda Flywheel, great quality but it doesn't come cheap (around $400). TODA RACING - Chrome Molly Flywheel I guess the only negative side to having too light of a flywheel is that your RPMs drop faster when you shift. But the plus side is that your engine rev's faster too...

    Comptech ice box

    I've finally got the parts. From the looks of it, it should fit no problem. I'll post up once I've installed it this weekend. Then we'll know for sure. Here's what CT Engineering said when I emailed them: _________________________ In terms of actual dimensions, they would be the...

    MFactory Magnetic Drain Plugs

    These are worth every penny. The Magnets are as strong as advertised. I originally bought the SKunk2's, but their magnet is too weak.

    How to check the condition of stock ITR / CTR LSD

    Thanks for the link, I see them now on MFactory website. Is there a reason why Synchros for 1st/2nd gear aren't offered? Last year when I was in HK, there was some crazy-ass ferry accident. That was really sad... But ya, Ferry is decently quick, it's the waves that get me sick haha

    How to check the condition of stock ITR / CTR LSD

    Yup all the good MC stores are in Kowloon district. :) Ya land being precious in HK is definitely more of a reason for them not buidling a track than anything. I never realized how difficult it was to get to the Zhu Hai track...that's really too bad. I really do hope they build the...
