After a two-year wait, the J's Racing wing came in! We swapped out this CR trunk for the original trunk and bolted up the new wing. It now looks like it did during Mark's ownership.



There were also several mechanical changes at the last visit to Blacktrax:
  • Re-tune Hondata FlashPro for the high flow catalytic converter since it was previously tuned for a test pipe
  • Karcepts front and rear sway bars replace Eibach front sway bar and OEM rear sway bar, optimizing the contact patch in hard cornering
  • Ohlins TTX (12 kg/mm front & 11 kg/mm rear) replace Ohlins DFV's (12 kg/mm front & 10 kg/mm rear), improving both ride and handling
  • Stoptech C43 big brake kit replaces Spoon calipers and GiroDisc rotors, increasing thermal capacity for track use
  • Baero offset bushings replace J's Racing Camber Joints, pulling front tires in 7mm and increasing reliability
  • OEM engine mounts replace Spoon engine mounts, reducing idle NVH significantly
The Stoptech SR33 Race pads squeak excessively for street use, so the pads will be changed to Endless ME20 in the near future. If the pads don't remedy the issue sufficiently, we might change to the ST40R kit instead.
