My DC5R

[wuism]

shoudl see it in real life....the quality is so bad...the edge are rough and you can see fibre sticking out where the screw holes are

LOL.. u hit the nail right on the head, so true.. ahahaha

[noodleman]

yeah i was close to buying the spoon one....saw the quality then wen twith the mugen one...dry carbon ftw

[tofu]

that is true,

the hole size on the LCA is supposed to be different.

Thus it was harder for me to find a RCA. Toda made for DC5, not EP3,

Spoon made for DC5, and not EP3.

so.. j's it was.

how much and where from did you get the j's rca for ep3?

[wuism]

AHAHA.. thats wat the guy said when i asked him about the spoon one.. he said the quality of the mugen one.. is far superior.. however.. had a theme... bite the bullet and stick to it...

[wuism]

how much and where from did you get the j's rca for ep3?

Bought from Man Auto in HK when i was back there. Think it was 1800HKD..

Just installed J's racing RCA:

First impressions: Looking at the LCA angles now, it's flat, however I will prob raise the car by like 10mm to make it point it down so more. The car feels softer than before, and going out a speed bump feels much better, though thats not the main concern. Still havent tried the bumps that make my suspension 'crash' yet due to not enough stroke, but will test that out later.
Going around the corner, the car seems to have less roll at the front. It stays up more than before and that is the major difference that i can notice atm (only got the car back couple of hrs). Will give further impressions once i drive it more.

Clutch and Fly:
Finally broken in, and have taken it to the red line. Response is much better with the FD and the lighter flywheel, and shifting is crisp at high RPM. The clutch does bite alot, however there is noticable 'buzzing' at 3400 rpm to 2800 rpm. For ppl who want a quiet car, this is prob not for you.
Pedal feel is not hard anymore, maybe coz gotten used to it, but there is no feedback on the pedal when it hits the friction point (compared to stock).

Very happy though with everything, but yet to be tested on the track yet. ATS lsd seems very good on the street, very quiet yet grippy when u need it.

just came back from the track on thursday night, everything held up well.
LSD is now a bit noisy when on full lock and cold, but i will change the oil very soon.

the lsd is a improvement from stock lsd, front grips well, and with current setup, if i throttle 2 hard while turning, the back will come around.
Turn in is much sharper, which i'm not used to it yet, keep turning in the same time as with stock lsd, and manage to clip the apex, but now with ats lsd i turn at the same point, and find myself turning back out due to sharper turning.

got a pb of 58.8s for barbagello short track.
