I've owned this car for quite a long time and it's come a long way over the years to the point where I've stopped modifying (for now ).
From the title, the Honda guys will know J's Racing. TGM is a race team in the UK that look after it. In it's current guise, it's very much still a road car but catered for track.
Anyway to start from the very beginning..
Many moons ago, I picked up a facelift DC5
It came with Mugen Assist meters
and sat on Mugen Sports suspension
They were ok but off they came.....
..and were replaced with Eibach Pro Street S coilovers which went very with the Toyo R1R tyres I had on the wheels at the time
A B&M short shifter went in
Bye bye OEM
Dixcel Slotted Discs, Carbon Z-Type pads and Hel brake lines replaced the standard Brembo items which gave shorter stopping distances, but also provided fade free braking (on track) and a more progressive feel.
I had the cam cover smoothed and painted champ white and changed the plug cover over for a carbon fibre one
DRE shift light prior to fitting
My car as it was then, taken at Brands Hatch circuit where it performed very well.
