1999 Honda Civic Si #0868

After a few iterations, the stiffness curve is just right and the chassis feels stable through those high-speed corners.

010

Felt like a whole new car out there, lots of roll feel and feedback - now it's time to fine tune damping.

00

Swapped out the old bushings with some fresh ones, now the steering feel is more precise and stable on both slow corners and high-speed sweepers.

07

Tightened up bushings gave me 1mm more camber at each corner, should help reduce tire wear on my track toys.

10

Ran a few laps on Sunday and the suspension felt super smooth, didn't notice any noticeable body roll.

00

Lowering got a big payback with this adjustment, now the rear feels like an extension of the front while driving hard.

10

Had to re-machine the subframe mounting points to get a decent pivot angle, now the rear end feels much more predictable under braking.

011

After re-tensioning and adjusting, the bars are now running parallel to each other, which should help reduce body roll during cornering.

01

Focused on getting the master and brake lines primed up to avoid any trapped air, so far no issues with leaks or fade during a 10-lap session.

00

Swapped out worn bushings, now the rear end should be nice and snug, no creaks or play when cornering hard.

00

Swapped out my stock springs for some bespoke units that should handle the track's potholes with less stress on the chassis, now to calibrate damping.
