less weight and simple clean JDM look...???

tips for less weight when racing and a clean JDM look....

stop eating crap like fatty foods (Burgers etc.) maybe 2 every week

no fagget tall ricey spoilers ....stock or something fuctional like a Rotara carbon- fiber peice

no bodykits ....just lips and stock or simple aftermarket sides.. no fancy rice looking pecies

do this at the TRACK ONLY!! ....remove the spare, jack and tools

get a carbon-fiber hood and if u can find 1 a trunk lid also

remove any huge stickers...(flames etc.)

get a clean paint job(base/clear setup like silver) not sliver w/ blue stripes runnin down the hood and flames on the side

keep the decals to a minimum.... Spoon, Mugen, Advan, Type1, Option2, website decals as in JHPUSA.com decals are fine

Sounds.... keep it basic if u wanna get good race times... dvd player(FM capible), component speakers(1 mid and tweeter on each side), 1 amp only!!, 1 15" sub and make it removable for the track stock 04 coupe EX setup is fine just put a rsx-s sub in there and ur good to go

suspension no cut springs... Tein S-tech are fine but gettin Tein FLEX w/ EDFC is awsome so is Spoon and Mugen coils... Skunk2 works also... Eibach ummm ehhh go....no APC or cheapos because apc is and for show if you wanna call it that

make ur rims fuctional not bling out rims that weight 40lbs go like with a Spoon SW388 15x6.5 inch rims w/ 205/50/15's are awsome

Just one comment on these wheels..... For racing, they arnt worth the $$$ simply because they are only 6.5" wide. you should be looking at 15X7s or preferably a 15X7.5 (assuming you can get the right offset)


and Teins EDFC is a gimmic..... not worth the $$$.
