    OWNERS OF BLUE TEG DC5

    Blue is nice. Wouldn't like black 'cos it would make it too dark I think.

    My Brakes are Pants

    I paid £403.99 from Unit-8 for the Mugen discs.

    My Brakes are Pants

    So how heavy are those compared to stock discs?

    My Brakes are Pants

    I've found the Mugen Active Gate discs plus DS2500 pads a good combination. Consistent braking lap after lap with no fade. Wear level seems to be good after one trackday.

    I'd forgotten about this thread. Awesome model, impressive stuff - must have taken you an age, not sure I'd have the patience! 8)

    Those who have had S2k and DC5, comments please!

    Thought this might be of interest as Evs mentioned it briefly. Here's a vid of a K20a powered Exige. http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?doc ... xige+honda 8) The Exige/Elise 111R will be my next purchase simply because of the handling fun you can have. I'm going for a test drive in both...

    From the Motorsport Vision site: "Events are run in all weather but we may have to cancel or shorten an event in the case of extreme weather conditions or heavy fog due to safety issues.

    Do you actually like your cars.

    I don't see why people complain about the brakes on the DC5 so much. Yes, there's more initial bite on the DC2, but it's not all about initial bite. Over a period of time (ie: when they're hot) the DC5 brakes perform much more consistently and don't suffer from fade like the DC2 did. The...

    Do you actually like your cars.

    It's all said with tongue firmly in cheek though! The DC5 is a rare car and we intend to keep it that way. The last thing we'd want is for the DC5 to become a chav mobile - like the Civic. :wink:

    Valve clearances

    Page 6-37 in the RSX workshop manual. There's too many to list so it would be easier to go and have a look. http://www.hondahookup.com/manuals/

    slicks or semis

    Before this thread descends into an argument based on myth and conjecture. I've found a useful wiki entry that describes what happens in understeer conditions (ie when you reach the limit of adhesion of the tyres). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Understeer Note the paragraphs: "This...

    slicks or semis

    Well I don't agree that they will suddenly "give up". I found when reaching the limit of the grip, they will understeer and washout long before it lets go - if it even does let go. This is a front wheel drive car remember - to make it let go, you need to unbalance it and that means moving the...
