mods on Accord CF4

[fobs]

looks like evryone's GB also like that.
pakai sajalah,... use triptronic also ok,... use to the fullest.

the 'brain' is a little slow,... eh,... triptronic GB 1998 technology, what do u expect? already very good lohhhhhh,...

awie, mau tambah collection kreta? good good! yesterday in the workshop got one guy bring in an sti gcA, woooh,... version 7 i think, jester can elaborate. Aiyo, the engine duduk mana pun tak tau.

sato,... ur brakes screaming??? fuuuuuuhhhhhh!
CAUTION : since the new set of brakes (high performance) are installed only in front,... make sure ur mechanic guys know how to tune and do something to alter the "brake bias" of the entire braking system,... I only understand a bit roughly,... maybe set the front to kurang makan a bit, set the rear to makan maximum,... COZ,... at hi speed, say 180km/h, u press the brake pedal the front TOO makan,... the back kurang,... kreta will buang oooohhhh, if taking corners more dangerous. Even with nsx calipers also happen already,... so beware!!!

ehsean,... i second u!!! if everything fails,... accordu arre!!!

I have no idea about that.....but is it necessary to change the rear brake system also ? Read most from japan, their cf/cl didn't change the rear brake....only front !

Regarding tuning brake.....i dunno if my mechanic did it or not ! Where can i send to do it ?

The mechanic said if normal driving, that calipers only act like the old one......until it has the right temperature, only then u can feel the difference.....so...until now, the feeling is juz NORMAL ! But it gives me a more faster stopping feeling..... with sound though !

Tell u guys, i took back the original calipers yesterday, damn heavy !! Spoon is lighter.

gotta chk it later tnite,... but when driving dont notice one lahhh,...

tyres also no non-uniform wear i think.

balancing was ok,... but maybe have to re-chk again.

 

[jester]

gc8 comes in versions 1 to 6.

i need the lip to complete my conversion first lah.

damn difficult to get that lip

 

[jester]

[Sato]

So jester, the lip u r looking for is what version ? or it's universal fit ?

Juz now was driving to get back my HP fax machine, then heard weird sound from the right side of the door....or engine.....or brake pads...dunno....so...crawl back to honda service centre..... they sent someone to test drive it.....he said might be something loosen.....or maybe the brake pads not fitted tightly....

Tomolo have to send it back and check !

Lately found that the suspension is abit weak....seems like la.....always scratch fender......the front one !

Next week maybe send to N1 and check.... although the after sales services is abit low.....
