back sliding out


woah i know it wont handle the same as an ek9 was just wondering if it would even come close to the same kind of driving experience if i put an ek9 steering wrack in it as well . has anyone done this before ??
 
Rack not wrack! The steering rack wont improve handling. Its not part off the suspension. It will however give a better feel due to the shorter ratio of the EK9 rack.

to make it handle similar to an ek9 u would @ least need to fit an LSD on the tranny, replace the dampers/springs, fit stut bars front & rear, fit sway bars [rear sway requires sub frame brace] and still missing the B16B to pull u into corners...

after all this ur civic would handle good! :nice:

last night i pumped by tyres to 38PSI on all four tyres and i must say what a transformation! it feels like a new car! that made a massive diffrence. But i will still go have the bushing checked and start spending more on handling. If you aint got the power under the bonnet at least you can corner fast enough.

Do you carry a lot of weight most of the time? 38 sounds a bit high for the road. You tried 33 in the front and 32 in the back (Honda's recommendation)?
 
no i don't really carry people with me. I had 30 on all tyres with toyo proxies 4 195/50/15 but with 38psi the tyres have got so much more grip until they start over heating. i will go get 38psi nitrogen in the tyres. that should sort the pressure rising from the tyres warming up
