OsakaJDM Spoiler | PIC Performance Coilovers | Buddyclub P1 Wheels | Hardrace | Function 7

Well - many updates!  I have installed OsakaJDM Carbon Fiber Wing, PIC Performance Coilovers, Hardrace Front LCAs, Function 7 Rear LCAs, Buddyclub wheels, and Falken Azenis tires since the last update!  Also, put on a SiR front lip.  Here are some pics!




Really happy with where it's at right now.  Car feels amazing out on the road.  Now it's time for brake pads, rotors, fluid and an alignment and it should see its first HPDE!  Can't wait!

Function 7 LCAs, Buddy club Racing Seat, ALL SMILES

Well a few quick updates.  I ordered a set of the Function 7 lower control arms during JHPUSA Black Friday sale.  I've always wanted a set of these, just never have pulled the trigger on em.  But now a set belongs to me, and will go on when I install the suspension.  Also, always remember to order new OEM Honda LCA and shock absorber bolts, because you'll probably break at least one.  A fresh set is never a bad idea though on these old chassis.



I also found a great deal on the Buddy Club racing seat.  IMO, there a few things necessary to have real fun at the circuit, and through my experience a race seat is one of them.  Being held in, instead of thinking about holding yourself in, is a big factor to your overall track day experience.  I've ridden with people who have race buckets, and it's a world of difference.  I've never had a bucket seat, but told myself this time will be different!

Nothing like getting new parts in!


Next, I will be getting a PCI seat slider mount to attach it to the chassis, once they have more in stock!


I also removed the bit of sound deadening by the spare tire well/back seats.


And finally, I got in contact with a car shop in Japan called ALL SMILES.  They sold me a set of original JAF decals.  I've always had a weird appreciation for these decals.  I just think they're cool.  So one will go on my rear hatch window shortly.  They're also working on getting me some Osaka/Kanjo merchandise from various Kanjo racers there, so hopefully that all goes through.  But for now, I'm All Smiles :)
