Very nice so far. I was wondering if the newer civic si rack or s2000 rack would work in the NSX. Cool to see more people thinking outside of the box. Real world experience beats on paper knowledge every time so I hope it feels and works great once completed.

The CTSC would be the better option, but you seem to be against that. If I had to choose between the two choices I would see if either would be willing to drop the price and sell without the AEM Series 1. If either is willing to do that then you can use the cash saved to put towards a better...

Sorry for the late feedback on the build. This week has been hectic to say the least. Anyway, the crank was sent off to the machine shop to get double checked and rebalanced in the event that it needed it. Halston, the machine shop owner who Wil uses for balancing cranks and other things...

WTB Lovefab long tube headers. Willing to trade with ceramic cerakote coated comptech headers + cash on my end. Let me know if anyone is interested. Jones

That start up issue sounds like a tuning problem Jinks. Not saying the tune is bad at all. Just saying the front end needs to be addressed.

I'll get pictures of the crank on the balancer with the digital readout so if it is balanced and doesn't need mallory, we will prove it.

Wil is gonna send the crank back out to be double checked again to make sure it is balanced. He also said the machine shop's crank balancing machine is pretty new though. He's never had a crank come back from being balanced with mallory on it. Wil's currently remeasuring the pistons and rod...

Congrats on getting your car back Jink! Looks and sounds great.

Wil said he would like to answer this question himself: "With regard to the crank machining, I always try to get all of the journal OD's the same, so that theyll all use the same bearing sizes, and I like to have the same oil clearance evenly across all of the journals and bearing surfaces...

Daily vehicle process: Spray clean with water (pressure washer) Spray down with foam (McKee's 37 xtreme foam, MTM PF22 cannon) Scrub down the truck (Microfiber Madness wash mitt) Spray off the truck (pressure washer) Dry the car (Griot's Garage PFM Terry Weave Towel) Clay Bar if necessary...

Only thing from Chemical Guys that I like is the Honey Dew for the foam cannon, and even that isn't as good as McKee's. Most of CC's stuff is rebranded from somewhere else. Look around and I promise you there is better.

Gas will be either 93 or e85. The car is running a flex fuel sensor so it just depends on what I want to run. Probably 93 on the streets and true e85 on the track. I expect the rotrex to have numbers around 350tq/420whp, but it is a guess. 350tq with short gears will be plenty enough to play...

Everything has already been balanced but he wants to recheck the tolerances for the rod bearings. I hope it is a quick turnaround also. Believe me! Everything has already been done except for the timeserts actually. Since the goal is no more than 12psi max at 350wtq and XXX whp I am pretty...

Appreciate it Kram.

Thanks man. Their new shop has more space and an area specifically for custom machining internally so Wil is revising the bracket based off of the latest mockup. He built the bracket from scratch so the design and sketches are his. You can always contact the shop through their website or...
