So who'd you decide to go with a d13 and not a b series?

I think he said it was to get into the 1400cc class. The B series are a little bit bigger, certainly pushing him out of that class, meaning a bit more work to run with the others.

Is fine for daily rider, much better then standard one. But for a track use.. rubbish... you can go much better for few $$ more.

Any way.. there are my new wheels - Sparco NS2 Crimson Racing 15'' - 5,5kg each.
Just after I bought them:



And now, after 2 weeks of my hard work on them...

I was not here for a long time...
I was very busy...
I'm sorry...

Anyway I made some modifications at this time, here they are:
-Finished my DIY project - looong cold air intake pipe. The diameter inside is exactly what should be for my throttle, also internal surface is as smooth as possible and both bends has possible smooth and wide angles. Short photo story:



And there my final product:






- Get XTD clutch stage 3 for d16.


- Replaced bolt joints and bolts into stainless ones in my camber arms:




- Removed my gearbox and replaced bearings:


- Get STRONFLEX yellow engine mounts inserts - I have done some research... and as far I know that the stiffest polyurethane inserts on the market at the minute...


- New VMS adjustable cam pulley:

- New GATES RACING timing belt:


- Replaced my standard subframe and steering rack with DC2 type R one:


- New magnetic oil drain bolt, K&N oil filter, Lucas pure synthetic oil 5W-30:


- Few pics from progress:






- And some pics from Japfest:

Was missing for a long time... Long story short - F... brain dead woman cut my way on motorway on 30th of july last year and hit into front tire o my van... Crashed quite badly - head-one collision with barriers @ over 60mph and then rolling over few times... So I had a break with the project...

Any way I'm back!! Started again couple month ago. And there is what i have done so far:
Parts replaced/mounted in suspension:
- ASR
- Sway bars (26 and 22mm)
- STRONGLEX polyurethane bushes, bits for sway bars and inserts for engine mounts - all racing version - 90Ash
- HARDRACE toe control arms
- BUDDY CLUB - extended ball joints
- ARP extendet wheel studs
Also I bought lighter rims and tires:
- SSR Type X 15" - 4,8kg + TOYO T1R
- Weds sport TC05 15" - 4,6kg + TOYO R888
Also fixed:
- mugen look lip
- spoon look spoiler
- light weight fiberglass fenders
- new custom made (by TOP GEAR STOCKPORT) full exhaust system

Some pic:
















And some videos from first test drives:
- 0-60mph

Wow.. that accident is intense. I'm glad everyone was ok, as that could have been a LOT worse.

Yep.. That was lucky i have to say... Well... s**t happens ;)

Any way.. this week I finished my brakes:
- rear Yellowstuf brake pads
- HEL brake lines
- brake fluid - MOTUL racing






I have done full wheel geometry yesterday, starts handling way better :D
I still will do some adjustments and corner weight - but that after next track day. Any way that the starting point:
