Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
Sweet I just got the Tokico Blues installed today. Also installed the Neuspeed front bar. Went to install my Stiffy torque damper and found out the dude who I bought it from on this forum forgot to send the bolt and mounting bracket.. Well one of them.. So I need him to either send me the other mount or make me the other mount.
We shall see on whats next for the whip. I'ma start saving for some flat black 16" slipstreams.

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
if your using your stock top mounts from your suspension, just to let you know the ingalls stiffy will not work with the neuspeed bar unless your using the top mounts like tein provides with their coilovers that has the extended and longer screw prongs. Our stock ones are too short, and if your getting a thinner bolt to screw it in with the ingalls mounting bracket and neuspeed bar, it is not recommended, there have been stories of it popping out and the ingalls stiffy becomes less effective due to its weakness of holding three objects at once. You gotta go with either or. if Drag racing go with the stiffy or making sharp corners stay with the neuspeed bar. good luck
Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
Actually the bracket for the stiffy and the neuspeed bar work perfectly together I got both of them on and I got 5 complete turns down on the screw which is plenty because it hit the recommended 31-33ft lb tq.
This has been discussed many times before on multiple threads.

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
are you sure cause when i bought it brand new with my neuspeed bar, it was impossible so i ended up returning it because of the less thread bite from the nut. the previous owner must of drilled the inner socket holes of the neuspeed bar thinner on the drivers side. Its also been discussed on other threads as well that this wont work. If it did work im sure it did not bite all of the threads than it would normally, thats what worried me the most.
Look and tell me how did it work? That thread is too small to get you get 5 complete turns with the stock bolts

By the way how did you put on the bracket if the sender forgot to send you the mounting bracket?perhaps how did you put it on without the mounting bracket to begin with?

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
Thats the thing the bracket on the strut top is the one he sent me. The one that mounts to the engine is the one he forgot so as of right now I have the bracket on the strut and the bar in the box. Until I can find the engine bracket or have one custom made it's just chillin on there.
From the looks of the pics mine probably has more threads visible than that. I'll show you when we get together for the shoot.

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
well we will see when you finish the install to see how if it works. if it does work, i guess you proved all of the people here wrong.

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
Neuspeed is great. I just got my energy suspension bushings for the rsx rear sway, should be installed sometime this weekend. Hopefully I can get this bracket for the Stiffy custom made so I don't have to spend 80$ on one from Ingalls.
Wanna gut me?

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
alright guys ive been doing some thinking, since some people are not able to make it to the meet at 3pm i would like for everyone to make it to the photoshoot.
If you guys want we could do a meet, photoshoot, and cruise on this coming thursday at 6pm. I find this better because it is at a much cooler weather and everyone has a chance to be in the photoshoot.
then on friday we could meet up at the same spot at 5:30pm before going to the findlay honda meet to cruise together and show up at findlay honda at the same time that way we could all park next to each other.
let me know guys so i can make it official by tomorrow.

Re: Las Vegas Findlay Honda Meet
by the way the official place to meet is at townsquare at the top of the garage, there would be plenty of room for all of us and easier to manage our photoshoot.
