I'm hitting Gingerman again next Friday and I'm really going to try to dial it in. There are a couple placed that I think I can choose better gears. I think I need to get into 4th a little bit between turns 3-5. I find myself off the throttle because I hit the redline, but not on the brakes for a couple seconds after I let off. A few seconds in 4th before getting into the braking zone should help matters. I think I'll get someone to crudely time me with an iPhone or something to see if I am making any progress.

A front sway bar might be an option for me. The only time the car ever feels like it pushes a little is in turn 10, and I've always just chalked that up to downhill/off-camber. I might try to get a '99-'01 spec FSB, as they are stiffer than the '02-'03.

So you know the CR FSB is just about the same stiffness as the 00' 01' bar but the CR bar is $85 while the 00' 01' is $111 on majestic Honda's web site

Keep in mind you still need the bigger bushings for the cr bar but they are under 4 bucks each

^^I don't have mine either. 2 unanswered emails, but they did answer when I called. Nick said that the CD's shipped out Tuesday apparently.
