You sure? :? You must have got the calculation screwed up. I top out around 140.


Edit - 215/45/17 @ 7800rpm 5th gear = 0.87 & 4.64FD = 142 mph. What do you have different?

Excellent work on giving this car the box to match its engine.

Mid level spoiler looks sweet too and great painting skills. Your boot looks misaligned in that photo though :mrgreen:

Right then

Active ABS still works. No abs error codes. Atts ecu is still plugged in. I'll leave it there I think.

The front end feel noticeably lighter. Very nice and precise and the steering feels lighter too.

Short ratios are fantastic despite not hitting vtec yet.

Stage 2 clutch is absolutely sublime. Perfect for my needs. So smooth however extremely smelly and still bedding in.

The final drive. First of all I can hear it whining. Very subtle but I can hear it. A lot quieter that the fuel pump. The strange thing I need to get used to though now is when I get up to 60-70 mph I want to change into 5th gear however I'm already in 5th gear. The speeds are just a lot different compared to engine noise when I change gear. It's noticeable more torquey and I can do 5th gear pulls now a lot more effortlessly.


Now the lsd. Not spanked it yet as its wet and was rush hour but I did one roundabout and

Wow. Feels like ATTS but less obvious on the limit but you can feel it ok n the smallest of movements where ATTS needs a lot of spanking.



I'll report back more once everything has bedded in.

I think it's time for a vid, with lots of noise too... I admire the commitment to your car...very unique and special.
