Yep, sat in the garage waiting to have it's supercharger fitted. :) Hopefully if things go well with the business over the next few months (looking promising) they may get traded in for something a little bit more luxurious. Some sort of an M3, maybe an M5. :) On that note, I actually came by...

I haven't been back in a while. Still got my ATR though so haven't gone far!

Hello. :)

Quite a bit more front bias with those calipers on a 300mm disc, would definitely be worth upgrading the rears.

I know, just commenting in case other people are considering this idea. If anyone wants some idea of how hard it is to stop the car with no booster, try having your car towed by a mate and the bring it to a halt with the engine switched off. Not fun!

I am still around from time to time, I drive an ATR and an MX5 now though so don't come back to the Civic forums much. My MX5 brake bias app has had quite a few upgrades recently... the Honda one rarely got used so it fell by the wayside.

There is no benefit in switching to a twin pot caliper on the same disk, if anything it's actually a downgrade. Bigger discs is what you want if you're upping the power.

I wouldn't be buying anything with a secret caliper specification! Are these OEM calipers off another car, or proper aftermarket items?

I wouldn't do this, that booter has a total area of about 90 sq.in and there's about 10psi of pressure on it on overrun, so it's adding around 900lbs force to the master cylinder. You will not be replacing that with two feet, let alone one. To do it properly you need much smaller master...

Awesome work! How long does each one of these take you roughly? I do similar stuff but I only do line art, no colour/shading. Would like to have a go at using some colour at some point!

Don't bother, front roll center is lower for a reason.

I draw pictures of cars and write techy stuff about them.

I agree with RVM, typically you'll find having the rear harder than the front best for a FWD car. A stiffer axle transfers load faster than a soft one, and the bigger the load transfer between two tyres on an axle, the less grip they'll have. Ergo, the stiffer axle has less grip, so you really...

Doh! That's the DC2 specs, well spotted though! :agree:

I can do them at the £99 price point if there's 3 or more orders for the Jordan. :nice:

There's no such thing as a quick mock up unfortunately! I can do a Jordan version for sure as it's not much different to the EK9, but will need a confirmed order before I actually do it as I'm snowed under at the moment!

Yes that wouldn't be a problem at all!

Now I've got the final EK9 Kickstarter reward ready to ship out, I am happy to start taking new orders for this awesome laser etched EK9 blueprint, which can be customised to match your exact car! Both facelift and prefacelift versions are now available, as well as a number of other Honda...

Have you had a play with my brake bias calculator yet? http://blackartdynamics.com/BrakeBasic/BrakeIndexHonda.php

220bhp isn't going to overload the stock brakes. Spend your money on good pads, discs, hoses and fluid and that's all that is really needed.
