ITRCA

Since there is a shop in Germany capable of tuning your car on a dyno, then my next question is:
What programs are they capable of tuning?

David,

Call down to Intec in Kent and talk to them about tuning with Chrome. Uberdata is fine, but it's much harder to set the idle on it for some reason.

Ahahaha!

I'd say your pretty lucky. Welcome.

Sandor,

Ahaha...I had this big response written out but deleted it because I thought it was too much information. I guess the first few questions I have for you are:
1) Do you have access to a shop that can tune your car?
2) Do you know how to tune your own car?

Since your posting in this forum I'm going to asume that your car is turbo charged or super charged? I've used Uberdata, Chrome and Neptune. For boosted applications I honestly feel that Neptune is the way to go. Way cheaper than AEM EMS or Hondata and way more tunable. People have made good numbers...

Personally, at 5psi I don't think the sleeves are going to be an issue. That is very low boost. On the brighter side you will be hitting full boost very early in your RPM. My R used to be turbo charged. I had a Full-Race Stage 3 kit with a T3/T67 turbo and was still hitting full boost at around 4800...

Watch out for worn/ broken trannies. People that abuse the car, the tranny will show you first signs. Such as Syncros, grinding at high rpms... Also look out for motor mounts they seem to fail if driven hard. I know cause I busted three out of five :roll: As rob has said, pretty much for the whole ...

^^^ Yep. My words exactly. This thread and all your handy work is pointless with out pictures.

woops! Shows how much I was paying attention. Any 1/4 mile numbers yet? The car sounds quite nice.

Mine was faster
What BOV is that your using?

Irashaimasu Kenjiro-Kun! Japan ga ski desu-ka? Ah...Tokyo ga ski desu-ka!?

I like your last picture. It's like saying your R is your daily beater or something like that.

That's what I have and let me tell you...it is better than that crap.

Here are a few. Some of you have seen some of these pictures on Honda-Tech. Oh well.... :wink: The VERY FIRST PICTURE I took of the car after just purchasing it from Len in Georgia. I flew all the way from Hawaii to pic it up! This was just after we put Buddy Club Race Spec coil overs on it. http://...

Let's also not forget that the engines are pretty much the same every year. For US models there was a slight change in cams around 2000. There was also a slight difference in suspension changes in 1998. Generally, you will pay more for a 2001 as opposed to a 1997 (if you can find one :wink: ) Aloha,...

It would be fun for me not ot waste money and actually go. If I knew of a date, I'd be intereted in simply flying out and watching you guys drive around the track.
