Thanks chaps. Yeah as said its a DC5 engine from the later Integra. Good for around 240bhp with the supporting mods.
It was 147kmh in a 50 limit. It sounds reckless just saying the speed so I'll go into it a little more. It was in Dunkerque so almost home, on a empty straight single carriage...
Oh, the weekend was not a cheap one either.
Initially this:

Then on the way home the French police did me out of 750 euros for speeding :(
Yeah I know Dom, speak to him quite often. I was actually discussing with him my intentions of going K20 at Rockingham a few months ago, after him taking me for a few laps in his the decision was quite an easy one :)
Yeah it is very simple now. Engine mounts are all readily available, wiring is just 5 or 6 wires to solder, the rest is done by a conversion harness. Driveshafts are simply EP3 ones with DC2 outer CVs. The conversion has been around quite a while now so all the R+D has been done enough times to...
Morning guys!
I wanted to share my latest achievement with the CS crew. Long story short, this happened:
Out came the B18c, in went a K20a from a DC5 with FD2 intake, 5.1 final drive, ATS plated 1.5 diff, and a few other tweaks.
This was all done for one reason, I wanted to go sub 8...
A few people have said that about the wheel! I used to have a snap off steering wheel on that brought the wheel say 2" closer to me and I hated it. That was before fitting the bucket seat though so maybe now I could do with refitting and see if I prefer it.
As above. :innocent:
Gotta say I just do it because I enjoy it to be honest. It's pretty cool nailing it especially while braking. I know it's not required but then neither is heel and toe, a lot of guys I go with are happy to just slam the car down a gear and yank the clutch up.
1st, 2nd and...
Hey mate, that sounds like us! Dan was at Cadwell too. We did Spa and the 'ring again back in April, really great experience.
I don't remember making a CS friend though :grin: where did we meet again?
Thanks all. Yeah couldn't believe car meme's shared it when I woke up earlier. I wish they wouldn't have called it an insanely quick lap though haha.
Those laps were around 1:46/7, my best of the day was a 1:45.06 just going by frames on my GoPro. I could have gone faster but I had an off in...
Evening all!
Haven't posted for a bit but still come on and have a ganders now and then. I wanted to post up this video of the DC2 blasting around Cadwell on Thursday. My second time there and the weather was lovely.
The car hasn't changed a lot since I posted up last. Went to Anglesey...
Wow that Eurosport article is bad. Warm up lap? Haha. It's clearly a tourist lap.
In fact it was posted up on BTG the other day, the camera car is a Nissan GTR.
Yeah, spoke to Dave, bad timing though for him!
Anyway... It's a lovely looking thing when its cleaned up.

So, the impending purchase of an M3 means this lovely stop gap is now for sale. I've got someone coming to look at it on Wednesday and they seem pretty keen, but if anyone else is interested shoot me a PM. It's just about to tick over 100k in the next few weeks. Full BMWSH. Asking price is...
Here's me against the Mini, 2:30 in.
I've got it on my GoPro footage somewhere, but the guy moved across to let me pass, then swerved in at the last minute :( maybe he didn't see me.
