Hopefully in about 60days tops i will have intake, header, exhaust, coilovers, flashpro and JDM red badges. That way i have time to get used to the feel and then give it about a 40-45 hp boost lol

 

Time for IPS cams.

 

cams will eventually come. I wanna sit it at around 220WHP and then finish suspension tuning and wheels/tires. Then get a RRC manifold and new throttlebody, short shifter etc then get the pistons (11.7:1) cams etc

 

you're doing it all backwards!

work on power last.. IMO

 

Everything at once

 

Ima get SOME power adds first then wheels/tires, then go ALL OUT on suspension (camber arms/bolts, sway bars, subframe braces, etc) and last do all my invasive power mods(cams, pistons, flywheel, clutch, manifold, throttle body, etc) I just want a little bit extra to start out with

 

Minus necessary supporting mods .. brakes/chassis/tires... I do power first because I get bored easy. I just leave the stock clutch as a fuse till its time to get serious.

 

I get bored easy but im past my straight line racing/driving. I want power to pull me out of the bends and suspension to keep my flat thru them.

 

What I did for my GD Fit today was ...... PAID THAT BABY OFF!!!!!!! WOOT!!!!!!!! : vtec:Driving free and loving it more!

 

replaced the alternator and serpentine belt after hitting 141k miles!!! YAY! (the spill is coolant, yes accidental)

Happy V-Day!... to my FIT.. she got a bubble bath!

 

I agree

 

I hope you aren't like me and spend what isn't going toward payments on stuff to put on it...The way you've been bringing home trophies you would surely bring home more now that you will have more cash to keep going with it..

 

oil change yesterday
transmission fluid change today the drain and fill way (2.5 qts)
tire rotation
spark plugs change less than 7 days ago

thankfully the serpentine doesn't look like it's got anything noticeable cracks-wise in it so that'll be put off until it is ready to go.


i need to get around to putting the speakers and all inside the car back to order since i tore it apart in november/december.

oh, and we paid it off too

Cat, careful listening to TC.

I'm currently following his plan and I think my wife's going to hurt me when she realizes how much I've spent on the car in the last 2 weeks on "maintenance" stuff.

 

Halleluiah! Another one sees the light! Never was a fan of straight lines... (my sig)...

 

Are you kidding, last time i was on a drag strip was 6 years ago in my 350z. I got bored with it.

 

Heheh... more fun taking the curve... always!

 

Sounds like you guys just need to go faster

I love me a road course.

But 0-150 in a shade over 9 seconds is a thrill doesn't get old. I would bet you'd be surprised how tough it is to stay in a straightline at that rate!

Especially when that car still has .9x lateral G capability.

 

0-60 in 9 seconds is pretty tough to control too
