Bigpower

Hi, I've got a Civic Type R. I'm into tracking it and have done a few runs at Santa Pod but found it pretty boring. I am Marham this weekend if anyone else is?
Here's a couple of pictures and short vids

Hi James - welcome onboard.

When was this track day? - looks like it was chilly

Great 1st post Welcome to BigPower.

There are quite a few of our members doing the trackday at Marham this weekend, some of us are off to the Nurburgring the following week as well.

What mods/plans have you got?

The trackday was a Javelin one in february.

I've pretty much done do it what I want for now, Almost.

I've got a quaife lsd going in next week. I wanted to get it in before Marham but I've got to run the new clutch in for 500 miles so wont have time. I've done the brakes, got it supercharged,fitted coilovers. The next thing maybe is a baffled sump and toyo r888s.

Superb ... looks and sounds like a great track weapon :thumb:

Welcome onboard James. I'll look at the video later, but even from your brief description the Civic sounds like a good well thought out specification.

What type of brakes and coilovers did you go for?

Welcome aboard,are you going the hole weekend to marham?

Yep I'm doing the (w)hole weekend, hopefully.

I've got a habit of munching brakes on trackdays though so might not make it into the afternoon on sunday.

The coilovers are Tein Superstreet and I've gone for the Powerslot bigdisk conv where I had to grind the calipers to get them to fit behind the std wheels.It uses the original calipers which are pretty good but the std disks do get very hot and get brake pad material left on them after running them hard, I've had this happen twice now and it knackers them.I'm also running ferodo pads and braided hoses which I think might need bleeding.

hello and welcome to Bigpower - loving the Type R

Hello and a big :welcome: to James

Like the Civic and your style of driving it :thumb:
