ghettoracer Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 anybody considering? asking $11,500 92 civic hb. 1.8 GSR. ITR tranny with ITR LSD. now tuned to 210 whp and 135 ft-lbs. DTR/SSR 4-2-1 long tube stainless header, full 3" catback exhaust. well sorted. huge oil cooler and eletronic accusump too. koyo al. radiator. koni 3011 double adjustables with eibach 600/1000. progress swaybars. NSX front brakes. XP10's all around. team dynamic wheels 15x7 et40 w/205/50/15 RA1 dated 2005. full custom cage with full Nascar door bar on drivers side. can weights about 2100 lbs wet. it can make the min. 2250 lbs weight depending on drivers weight. includes a brand new custom front splitter. great history with Andrie Hartanto + Kenji Morishige. brand new Sparco Sprint seat. just tech'ed. brand new fire system. has street plate so you can totally drive to/from track with easy. will carry 8 tires with easy + all tools. gets 30 mpg cruising!! over 300 miles per tank! drawbacks: super loud, car does feel like it has aged a little bit. well used but in good condition still. could use a bit of off season refresh (new clutch, a clutch pack LSD or Quaife, braking prop valve) but overall a great car. my reason of selling... i have an EF and EK hb. both race ready. i want to sell FM and finish/upgrade the other 2. i got too ambitious and bought 3 generations of hb race cars earlier this year. hahaha.

RaceTiva Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 A year ago I would have bought it. I hope you find a guy to race it in Nor-Cal. I would hate to never see that car again. It is a former champ! Still mad that we will never see Higashi's car again! Devin Raynal Redstone Motors #6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrie Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Did you changed the spring rate? It was supposed to have 700/1050 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghettoracer Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 really? i could've swore i saw 600/1000 on the part #. i'll double check... i didn't change the rates. when were these 3011 purchased? when i ran FM @ Cali Spdway in field the car felt way too soft. Only 1 session tho. How do you adjust these Koni?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrie Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 the bump needed to be adjusted with the shock out of the car. That is the complaint most people said going to a good race shock from japanese shock. The good shock just absorb the bump really well making it feel like soft. It handles big springs no problem. If you think that is soft, you should try JRZ/Moton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghettoracer Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 the corner balance of the FM is a bit off as is the alignment. i should've checked them before Infineon last time. the cross weight was something like 56.5% on LF+RR. do you guys try to achieve 50/50? seems like for club stuff 50/50 is fine... any H1 ppl set it up differently for different tracks? FM is heavier than I imagined. 2140 lbs with just over half a tank. for the rebound, which way is full hard? the problem is not going over the bumps. the car felt slow and un responsible @ Cali Spdway especially at all the S's which you need to transition from left to right quickly... i've never had problems going over curbings on the inside... when you are cornering hard there isn't that much load on the insides anyway... My EK Cup car felt *much* better. Is there a chance that the shocks are worn? How long ago was this 3011 put in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
