Thanks guys! As some of you know, the weather has been dreadful lately which has done a nice job of keeping me unmotivated to go outside and take pictures. I am going out tonight though to finally get some full car shots.

Yes, yes, yes!!!!!!! I love your car Adam. Your photo's could be used for advertising if Honda still made our car.

Well took my car into SOS last Wednesday to get my Hardrace Camber Joints installed, alignment, and to possibly modify my fenders. On my drive to SOS I did have some mild fender rubbing, so made the decision with Wade at SOS to trim my fender liners in the front, and to bend the tabs up and out of the way. He did a great job and bent the tabs back in a way that they can easily be bent back into place and if I wanted to I could replace the fender liners and make it as good as new again. Figured that it would be best to take some precautions and do these mild fender mods in an attempt to prevent any real damage from occurring. I do drive my car hard and track it, and it was probably only a matter of time before I caught my fenders and did real damage so this seemed like the best route. I am still on stock CR dampers with Swift Spec R springs so even though my springs are a tad over 400lbs in the front, they are still "soft".

After the fenders the camber joints were installed without using the roll center plates which I plan on using down the road once I have coilovers and can adjust my ride height to compensate for the plates. The OEM bolts were reused. Then came the alignment. I wanted -3.2 front and -3.0 rear camber 0 toe front, 3/16" total rear toe in, and max caster. After multiple attempts the driver side maxed out at -3.1 while the passenger side was up over -4.0 degrees of camber. At this point I either have a bent suspension component (unlikely) or my subframe moved out of alignment (more likely). After the last track day I noticed my steering wheel was crooked and I was using some curbs pretty aggressively. I will be inspecting my subframe and doing some research into what might have moved. I am not concerned at this point, but obviously want to fix whatever is wrong. My alignment ended up at -3.1 front camber 0 toe and 7 degrees caster. The rear was -3.0 camber and 3/16" total toe in rear. Car feels great and I have yet to rub. So far I am really enjoying being back to non-staggered. The front end grip is immense with 255 RS-3's and while I have only taken a few corners moderately hard the front just grips and grips

So now finally onto my photos of the car!! As you will see, depending on the light and angle the wheels are either a darkish gunmetal, black chrome, silver, or chrome. Pretty cool!!

My favorite angle because it shows the meaty tire, camber, and the concaveness of the wheel. I also love when the wheels are this gunmetal color!

Also took these shots while I was out. I have been wanting to do a gauge cluster shot like this for awhile.

Stunning! Love your CR.
With playing around trying to get your camber in spec, how long did the alignment take? I've aligned my S maybe 3 or 4 times since I've owned it. There seems to be days its easy, then others when its tricky.

Looks amazing

So sexy.

Probably the best setup I've ever seen using the standard s2k offsets. I wouldn't change a thing. I wish I could go back to a car that had untouched fenders.
