Normally V is for victory with the Japs, and has revisions for Racing ****logation. In the case of a 6th gen it may be VIP, because the interiors of those were lovely.

Thought it was Sport and Race?

On the drop link subject, I fitted a pair of OCap cheapies from Euros, and had one die after approx 20k, and the other is still going strong at 28. Obviously a huge variance in quality there. Replaced it with a Lemforder part, which visually appears much tougher. All the front suspension...

Agreed. When you're running a cheap old car like I do, expensive genuine parts don't always make sense. Mine's full of aftermarket parts, and drives really nicely. The trick is to have some idea of the quality of the part you're fitting, and to know when it's imperative you use genuine Honda...

Is it the half-shaft side? I put a pair or Blieprint shafts in mine, and they held up fine. The wobble at the junction with the half shaft is all down to the half shaft splines being worn. Fitting a new component to a worn one will never work, then people blame the new component, not the old...

2nd overall, open class record. http://www.superstreetonline.com/features/news/acura-tlx-gt-race-car-finishes-second-overall-at-pikes-peak/

Yeah, just we don't get it over here. Wonderful stuff in boosted applications if you run huge injectors and fuel pumps and want to make big power. Our regular unleaded is somethig like E10 AFAIK.

I knew what you meant ;)

Stoichiometric ratio's vastly different with ethanol. Why old school speedway bikes had such enormous jets in them.

Mine's not working. Probably because im running a snide Mr Fusion unit from eBay.

Good to know. Mine is a hearse though, must make a difference.

To be fair, it wasn't at WOT for that long. Stomped up to the indicated 137 relatively quickly, then just hung there for about a mile with no variation, so just ***umed that was all it had. To be honest, I was surprised it even went beyond 125 to be honest. Doesn't usually see anything north...

Does a 7th gen have a speed limiter? Had an opportunity to max the car out in a safe environment a little while back, so did so out of curiosity. Accelerated pretty well to 220kph, then just stopped accelerating, even the transition from level ground to a slight downhill wouldn't change it...

If putting a new arm in it has changed it significantly, that's something, as it shouldn't have changed it.

N/s/r control arm not flapping round or toe-ing in massively?

The only rule I've actually followed was with the Honda PFS, but then again, I did also run 5wt motorcycle fork oil in there for a week and it didnt really seem to care.

Just run around with 15 psi in the offside tyre. It'll even it out.

If you want you do that, but have something thats still civil to drive, you need wide wheels with a similar offset to stock. As it is, my car with et43 fronts pulls in the ruts and with the road camber, and all the front suspension components are fresh and new. I have a picture of it with my...

I wouldn't want to go more than 10mm. That much offset change is noticeable through the steering. The further you get from stock, the more feedback you get through the wheel, it'll feel like the camber and road imperfections are trying to steer it for you.
