so when we going to the junkyard

 

Haha! Thanks.

I might not need to go. I think I have all the exterior parts that I need minus the carbon fiber roof cap.

 

Goodluck with the build, I remember seeing you off of CI. I am a green teg owner too (as you were) :D but i'll be moving to the fit side hopefully.

 

Thanks. I remember you from CI too. Don't post much anymore huh.

 

Nope lol I haven't been on it in awhile. Do you?

Motor will be fine, add Skunk2 valvetrain componets.

Coilovers are not going to work, That should be your first purchase. Try D2 or Skunk2 Pro C's. Either are perfect to time attack. Time Attacks are won in suspension. Also try rear LCA's, front and rear strong bars(benan or beaks?), upgrade your sway bars(add a larger rear?), Upper Shock tower bars(your choice), And a 6-10 point cage would not be a bad idea either. Spend ALL your money in SUSPENSION you will not be disappointed!!!!

Fat Fives are also a Bad idea they are extremely heavy, but will work until your funds are right.

Screw the exterior, you will be messing that up anyway!

Strip the interior, and add a nice seat(1) with harness to hold you in.

Just my two cent. Ignore it or follow it. Just advice to a fellow racer.

oh he knows suspension is key, there's a sticker on his windshield that says

'corners > straights' (close enough)

I think those are just what were already on it, I know he had Pro-C's and (maybe) Tein Flex's on his DB8 at one point or another

1. Motor will not be touched. The ITR valvetrain will be fine.

2. I'm planning on getting the Buddy Club Racing Spec Damper. Along with a multitude of suspension components.

3. The car came with Fat Fives. I'm not stupid enough to use them on the track. Come on guys...

4. Exterior will be mostly stock for now minus the carbon fiber roof cap. Instead of just filling in the moonroof hole, I've decided to just replace the entire roof skin with a carbon fiber cap. I plan to add some aero parts once I start clocking in faster lap times.

5. The interior is already stripped. I plan on getting a bucket seat, harness and roll bar.

6. And yes, my personal philosophy, "Corners > Straights".

 

**Yawns** lol

Nice choice

I wasn't saying you would lol

98-01 front or 94-97? I read the 98-01 is more aerodynamic?

What kind of seat are you thinking?

I've learned to follow that since getting my EF, god these oldish hondas are brilliant to drive

You should hook me up with one of those stickers btw lol


wow our quotes were f'd up haha

 

You guys need to learn how to quote. Lol! It's not that hard.

 

haha I fixed mine, i forgot to do something

 

subscribed !!!
post pics as the project evolves plz

 

awesomee build! i love dc2s!! my neighbor has a white jdm dc2 RHD with a B18c in it as well.. he took it to the tricity meet just recently..

butt yeah im starting my own build thread soon too :) got a right side drive eg shell sitting in the driveway waiting for the b16b <3

 

No problem bro. Lol!

Thanks! Will do sir.

Sweet! Now build that beast and take her to the track.

 

dang Matt, now the rest of the car has to step its game up haha

 

Yup. Don't worry, I plan to build the entire car with excellent balance.

 

Update:

I just picked up B18C1 and Y80 transmission from a friend last night. The motor needs and overhaul and the tranny possibly needs new synchros. Can't complain since I got them for free.

 

The racing spec dampers are much better than the D2 or ProC's imo. Even nicer if u can corner weight your car too.

If u need transmission replacement or gearing/differential setup give my friend Pat Seto at Mfactory a shout & tell him Jackie in Vancouver send u.

 

Yeah, I'm planning on having my DC2 corner weighted after I get the RSD. Funny, I was actual looking into MFactory for new carbon synchros. Thanks man, I appreciate it.
