    Rays manufacturing process video

    It's an "infomercial" of course but quite amazing. Shows the difference with some manufacturers who will just CNC the whole billet block, Rays actually form the whole wheel by forging processes before cutting excess material.

    Bilstein shocks + Tein S springs + OEM top hats

    Selling my used Bilstein shocks with Tein S Tech springs mounted along with OEM top hats. All 4 of them were mounted before I bought the car so total mileage is unknown but at least 23000km. The springs do lower the car a bit (.67" (17mm) front and 1.02" (26mm) rear). Condition is still very...

    ARP head studs stripped block threads

    Got a call this morning from my mechanics (who's still re-assembling my 3.2l engine, long delays for Honda parts these times...) who was putting back the heads - while torquing the bolts (in proper sequence, with ARP grease..) one of the bolts started raising, meaning it was stripping the block...

    Open engine maintenance, weird rod markings

    Currently doing a full refresh on my '98 C32B (everything rubber, then everything that needs to be replaced). Turns out that 2 rod bearings were slightly scuffed. So we'll replace them with new ones, of course, but looking at the rods for the original markings (in order to get the rod bearing...

    Fun session at Spa + Toda exhaust vids

    Chasing a Porsche Carrera GTS (seems to be a 2015 model): That was a fun session, not a race, so i was babying the car (not as much as the GTS owner obviously). Enjoy the Toda Ti exhaust note :) more vids to follow i have a recording from outside too.

    Aftermarket headers on 97-99 NA2, issues documented

    So i bought these marvellous KSP headers. They come with extensions and repositioned lambda sensors, all fine. But they wont fit NA2 ! I documented everything with photos so everyone can see the issue. I am currently in communication with Toda so they can fabricate specific cats for me... So...

    Another 1998 Kaiser coupé :)

    Hello everyone, I live in Europe and i got myself a nice '98 3.2l MT coupé in a pretty good shape, it was well maintained by its previous owner. Here the targas are the exception rather than the rule, and that coupé has got the black top. It had a set of Enkei RPF1 wheels and straight tube...
