There was another (or the same set) floating around. I tried to follow the chain of buyers but came to a dead end.

It would be sick if they were lazer beams shooting from the car.

Great to catch up with you at the track on Saturday. Such an amazing machine you've built. It was so good to finally see it in person. I probably cant help any more than the others above but I had some wilwood masters that I used in my kp they bleed up nicely when new but car sat for a few years, I can only assume the brake fluid ate away at the rubbers as I was never able to bleed them up again. That is probably obvious but assume OEM masters would last longer than a few years before losing seal highlighting the fact maybe wilwood masters aren't as good as we think? Or because the are cheap maybe designed to be a throw away part?- 535 replies

True Gc @Marino Fischer your outside the box thinking and can do attitude is inspiring. Keep going forward try not to get sidetracked like I do. Great to see you posting on here now. The platz is almost at the point my family has banned me from pointing them out. But at work I make my coworkers take photos of them for me. Any ideas for steering column and rack yet?

So I didnt really stop racing over winter. july track day The weather in july was perfect conditions and last minute decision was made. With all the modifications to the rear and removing the abs fuse (it would lift a wheel and have a freak out) I was able to get my laps down to high 45. Seconds. Came back from that track day hungry for more so I decided to pull the brake lines from a non abs logo at pick a part and drop 5kg removing abs unit I changed the drivers seat to something a bit lighter and add strut brace I've had sitting around for a while. August track day I was excited to try out the new mods unfortunately the weather didn't want to be nice again. With the rear bar and the soft springs I had the best drift car. Removed one of the links and went back to under steering but that was more controlled than the oversteer. Nothing else to report apart from mud. missed September because of sickness October track day I decided to make a set of new sway bar ends that had a bit of adjustment in them to give myself some more adjustment incase the rain came again. The bottom hole is the same as the original and the other is about 100mm away. When I initially went out on track it felt really good, smoother than before didnt feel like I was floating on a cloud. But I couldn't achieve the same lap times as july. The silly thing about that day I was having understeer problems all day and chasing my tail playing with tyre pressure and driving lines but it didn't make any difference. Not until I got home later I realized I had the sway bar set at the middle hole. I assume that was the difference. Its definitely softer than before I think I will add more steel to try stiffen it up. Cant do Novembers day daughters birthday. I've got a full new suspension set up coming up for December day. At this I'll just say custom everything. Hopefully get a wof in the next week and get it ready for the drags. Thanks for looking- 54 replies

Rhd japan. Or alternatively join the " honda logo modified " facebook page there are plenty of posts on there about springs. Make sure you also get the adjustable panhard bar. -
These are super jacked from factory. I notched my last one I was able to have 4 inch reset springs 2 inch lowering blocks front eye relocation 195/50r15 and with 2 inch drop spindles in the front. Still wasn't low enough so I flipped the load spring in the rear got it to about 60mm of ground clearance. The ride was surprisingly nice. Only problem is the wheels are quite far apart and would bottom out on everything. Looking good btw!

I have a smaller c notch lazer cut and folded ready to go down that rabbit hole? Haha

Is yours the early model? 86-89 had different style and fabric on seats, door cards had different material the early ones had a thinner rim plastic coated steering wheel? Crazy to think next year the early d21s are 40 years old. 1 year wof baby. Mines 1990. Dam

Good luck! I pulled mine apart 3 years ago to do the same rust repair. Now I have no idea how it goes back to together.

I've always thought it goes lighter with time. Dont know why they would change their mind now. Are they measuring it from the same location each time? Could one piece of glass have slightly more factory tint?
