U can bring the seat to seat shop n custom the railing....usually ard 100 per rail..or u could probably buy the sscus rails oso ok....dun bother abt the recaro rails..itll cost u abt 6xx a pair. Plus, i heard that the rails that come with the type r seats r not really recaro rails but from honda themselves

Not sure if ur db8 stock rails can be bolted to the recaros (doubt it) but in terms of the hole on the floor alignment...eg,db,dc are the same...mebbe thats what they meant.

Do you think getting this is a good idea? Will it suit my car? It's not sporty but its cheaper and newer.

SR3 Recaros are red ones right?

How much is it for a good conditioned black DC2R Recaros?

By any chance, do they also have the rear DB8 black seats?

Ok last upgrade was adjustable absorbers and front brakes.

I was actually thinking of changing my brakes from the DC2R to something better. Asked about Nissan and also a Mitsubishi brakes. But it won't clear because of my rim offset. So, my mechanic recommended the BB4 brakes.

Needed to change this...

and hope for better braking

The work begins


Old DC2R 96 spec brakes





Wish I could use something like this

But too expensive, no money...

Then, I was just asking my mechanic about the Energy Bushings. He turned and asked why do you want to change your bushings? I knew what he had in his mind at that time.

He asked to just change the absorbers. He said mine is like a boat at corners and too soft. Adjustable absorber was in my list but I wanted to save up more and do it at a later time. But as usual, cannot wait to change, I decided to upgrade it.

My old stock DC2R absorber..

Had to go.

It had to go not only because of handling but because of this too...

4 fingers, that was the gap


See what I mean?

Good bye old absorbers
BC Racing (Not Brian Crower, lol... it's Bor Chuann) BR type








Front spring rate:10kg
Rear spring rate: 6kg


Front, done..



Looking good..

Can't wait to try..



Now time for the rear absorbers


Rear absrober


Did I mention, I am using the EK absorbers. So, I needed to change the rear lower arms as well. Decided to go this way more for the bling factor.


Opted for the fake ones. The price difference was really too big.. couldn't afford the original ones. So, gave this a try.


Plus, the colour matches my ride

Haha... making myself feel good about using fake stuff

Anyway, I had to leave for work. So, couldn't take any more pics.

When I came back..
Everything was done. Ready to go!!

Remember this?

My new BB4 brakes with Ferodo Max, Changed my rear brake pads also.


remember this?


now this


Just joking, now only 1 1/2 finger




That's all for now.

Hi bro, would you mind sharing the price of the BC Racing adjustables?

And what do you mean by Bor Chuann, is it different from the ones sold in UK and US?

(0)

ddv_nk12

I paid close to RM5000 that day. Can't recall the exact amount. This includes the coilovers, rear lower arm, brake discs, brake pads, skimming of discs, installation and all.

Yes, I think Bor Chuaan is different than the Brian Crower.

But they do have BC in the UK as well.

Long time no updates, been busy.

I just started some work. Mainly to prepare my car for an important occasion. Changed the exhaust. Got bored with my quiet exhaust before this. Gonna respray my rim to either 2k black or flat black. Respray my calipers.

I have something in my mind for my calipers. Thinking of getting the word 'INTEGRA' on it. I have custom made the stickers and all. I have to options do what Chip Foose usually does on car bodies. Spray, tap it, then spray with another colour. So in my case, spray the colour i want the word to be, stick the Integra wording. Then respray with the colour of the calipers. Then peel of the stickers and then lacquer.

OR the sticker guy told me that i can even stick the wording after spraying. And then lacquer. He says that once lacquered, the stcker wont peel off. It's like it will "balut" the sticker together with the caliper.

True? Any other ideas on how should I do it?
