1999 Honda Civic Si #5aca — RedlineXArbeitshistorie11
Swapped out stock rotors for lightweight ones, saved a few pounds of unsprung weight which should give us better cornering traction.Tore out old skin, slapped on some new carbon fiber pieces, now the car looks like a real track star. Took about 10 hours but it's worth it.
The black paint job turned out smooth, no orange peel to speak of - now it's time to see how it looks in motion.
Spent all morning and most of last night tracking down a rare wheel with the perfect size and design for my track beast, finally found them.
Wrapped up the exterior paint job yesterday evening, looks sweet now that its been wiped down with a clear coat.
Fresh paint looks sharp, but the real test is how well it hides my racing scars. Time to get back out there and see if it lasts.
Got the new splitter on today, looks way better than stock and doesn't obstruct my side mirrors at all now.
Replaced brake pads and rotors on both sides, feeling much more aggressive now that everything's functioning as it should.
+5 mehrSwapped out the stock unit with a 70mm unit, should give me some decent cooling for those track days.
Swapped out the stock wheels with 19"s and now she looks mean, but more importantly, she handles better in a turn.
+6 mehrTwo days of sanding and prep work are done, now to let the clear coat cure before hitting the track again.
