Racetech "Rigid collars" / Chassis Alignment Kit

[Master Fuol]

Its people like you, buying all these copies that causes these companies to go bankrupt.
I can't believe your actually advertising copied products.

MASTER FUOL. If this is a copied product, which and where can we get the original? brandname and place of installtion plus price would help. Am interesting in trying this out

You know how much your words mean to me?

I myself is an enthusiast. Driving an AE111. I love the car for it's robustness, tuning potential and options. One will know if one watches initial D. But the limiting factor is $$$. Some people will always tell me no need to waste time because no matter what I do, it won't be an evo/skyline/FD beater. What I have been doing is do little little things like you, a bit at a time to make it much better than stock. That's what I can afford for the moment.

can't beat evo/skyline/FD???

who say?

Knowledge is Power..

Applied Knowledge is Using the Power..

and MONEY MAKES IT A REALITY..

Muahahahaha

true n not true both the same time.....

true
if let say u are buying hks mushroom filters...... then its very2 un-ethical to buy replica one cos it will spoil the original reputation of the original item

not true
if it is sumtin like this item here cos originally developed by spoon, bear in mind only for honda.... not for all.... so whats wrong if there are other manufacturer use the same theory/technology and develop it for other models since spoon doesnt develop to other brand except for honda?

FYI, a patent is only copyright protected for 5 years, after that it may be used generally.... if there is a change in the patent more than certain %, then it voids the original copyright terms.....

Highly agree on the car being more comfortable after that.. odd eh? LOL!

 

[speed2horizon]

Actually... If the guy up there read properly... The CAK is designed differently and uses different material compare to Rigidcolar. Same purpose, and different approach.

Rigid collar uses soft material Crush to fit. = 0 tolerence. 1 time usage.

CAK uses T6061 aerospace grade and install to minimize the tolerance.

Aduii.... BTW, does Honda, TOYOTA, Mitsubishi, Nissan, BMW, Ferrari etc etc got sued from Ford for using 4 tyres in their cars...?

Haha... Have a nice day bro...

I just read from the CAK manual. It also acts as an vibration isolator when it's being sandwich between the subframe and the chassis. Because, T6061 is still softer than steel

racetech only makes for protons...

EGs u either have the original spoon or stiff ring (can search for them in fadcebook)

 

[XlimShady]

Definitely getting this for my NEO soon! Was wondering where I could find these thing for my car also after seeing it on Speedhunters a couple of months back! Dream come true! NICE!

 

[mustang125]

now dats wat we peeps say a "REAL" car enthusiast.Only few can acknowledge ur brilliance.my radar say da truth,my instinct never lies.izso u know bolts n nuts.i can feel we will meet up 1 fine day..:)

 

[Izso]

Alright.

Let's clarify some things here.

#1 : To know the price of the Race-Tech CAK, either contact EA Autoworks Drexchan via PM / SMS / email or Race-Tech themselves via facebook (Just search for Race-Tech)

#2 : The CAK is NOT a replica of the original idea maker Spoon's Rigid collar. As Speedhorizon has pointed out, it somewhat serves the same PURPOSE (actually not same, but similar) but is not a REPLICA. Therefore you cannot shoot me for supporting a supposed 'copy' when it blatantly is not. Next up is Spoon markets for mainstream brands and not for Proton and prices ranges from RM600 upwards. Race-Tech retails for less than RM400 (depending on requirements).

Regarding all the kind words, I thank you kind gentlemen and hope to continue to have your generous support in reading my enthusiastic articles.

Before this thread goes out of hand - I'd like to repeat that this is an article on a new product that has garnered a lot of general public interest that I just happened to get my hands on.

This is not a promotional for the product. I do not work for EA Autoworks nor do I work for Race-Tech. I just happen to have friends who are and are supportive of my fanatical obsession with cars.

 

[Veloc]

Haha... Based on recent zth trends, I can see why you chose to take the initiative to put up an early disclaimer.

 

[ixeo]

I'm skeptical of this item making such an impact on your experience. Considering its essentially something very simple yet having such significant change.

more owners should chime in. a lot of new things haven't been promising, and mostly snake oil. considering spoon is behind the initial concept it *should* be sound engineering.

sadly only for Protons :(

 

[Veloc]

I think this is every bit believable. Simple principles and easy to understand. Those fishy ones are like fuel saving devices.

 

[deanengson]

This can only mean.. RIGID COLLARS FOR ALL!

quite recently i crashed my junk (proton wira) into a tyre barrier (sepang circuit) and i managed to crack my front frame panel. this damage alone caused handling problem during high-speed corners (esp.turn 5) and braking performance are effected too.

a few days later at the workshop, i had the front frame replaced and what the heck, i've decided to throw in the stiff rings in as well (just like the C.A.K from racetech).
upon quick test drive my experience is similar to what Izso described.

well as for circuit racing test this will be put on hold until next year.


as per Izso - that racetech race putra managed to shave off 4 secs in sepang circuit is a huge improvement! for less than MYR400 mod! some people I know had to spend MYR12,000 to shave off the same amout of time (which is racing coilovers and tyres)
<RM400 p mod.<><RM400 p mod.<>
Izso, nice write up! Perhaps next time if I have any new parts for the Proton Wira, I'd drop you a message (+ the free part for testing) so that you could write it up for me ya? sounds good? ;)

 

[ddv_nk12]

Nice write up. Good info. But why only for proton? Haha.

Interesting stuff.
