Totti's CW DC2R

[totti]

My first mod.. Mugen CAI paired with a CF Top Fuel 1000 intake







I wasn't 100% happy with the intake sound, so I sold the Top Fuel chamber and found an OEM intake pipe to connect to the Mugen intake.. was a VERY tight fit for the 70mm TB

Tidied up a few hoses, added some dress up bolts and this is the current state of the engine bay (I need a new spark plug cover and will respray the valve cover one day).

Thanks guys!


The car came with a Shark (s2000 replica) antenna, which has seen better days.. so I swapped it for a new OEM s2000 unit thanks to jdmyard

After



Hoping to replace the timing belt/water pump/tensioner/drive belts this weekend if time permits

Also have the car booked in for a full custom exhaust next week.. can't wait

Mugen. Best intake for the DC2R.

Full custom including the header?

How'd you go with the fitment of the antenna ? Also, which power cable did you use to connect to the S2K antenna ?

I'm sticking with the PLM Toda replicas, can't justify $1500 for a potential 2kw improvement lol

Perfect for an OEM part is as expected, perfect. I used the white/red wire on the existing DC2 connector harness for an improved signal, there is no power cable AFAIK.

I was quite busy over the long weekend while most people were busy eating Easter eggs!

Replaced timing belt, water pump, tensioner kit, drive belts, front oil seals, brake fluid, power steering fluid, clutch fluid. Installed new extended wheel studs (had to dismantle front wheel bearings to replace front studs ) as it was time to fit my new wheels








Still need to fine tune the height, as I went too low and the fronts scrub under bumps while turning..


In other news, my optional JDM Type RX pedal set arrived yesterday so will be installing tonight

Let us know how you go with this

Can confirm it is an absolute pain to install, but so worth it haha

RE30s look so good! What specs are they? Bronze on white is a perfect match

Was not painful at all if you have experience replacing pedals, clutch pedal is the most time consuming, but overall it took less than an hour

Thanks mate, specs are 16x7 +42 (using 12mm hubcentric spacers with extended wheels studs) so effectively +30 offset

Funny you say that, as I will be refurbishing the wheels to a gunmetal grey colour once these tyres wear out

ahh fair enough, for me i found that the clutch pedal was the easiest! although i removed the whole assembly and not just the pedals themselves. Main issue I faced was that the throttle and the brake assembly wouldnt come out as there was too many obstructions, and the steering column was dropped to make room which was frustrating otherwise thats as hard as it gets really! bit of an awkward and uncomfortable position to be in as well haha
