    Just a little update. Installed the polyutherane exhaust hangers from Torque Solutions URL: http://www.torquesolution.com/Exhaus...Kit-s/1240.htm. They are significantly stiffer than the OEM rubber and have little play in them. If your asking whether I feel a difference in the car, the answer is no. They do sit a little bit higher which I now have to visit an exhaust shop to have the hangers modified a little bit lower. The heat from the exhaust will affect the bumper if I leave this unattended.

      Looking good. Saw someone on clubrsx selling these for a steal of a price. Didn't think it would be any different to stock. My mistake haha

        Interesting Norm, I wonder if these hangers will make it:

        - Easier / harder to remove and install the exhaust?

        - Easier / harder for the hangers to slip off?

                Its harder to remove and install the exhaust because the bushings are quite tight. Its more difficult for the exhaust to slip of the hangers, not that its a common occurrence.

                To be honest, only reason why I picked this hangers is that one of my OEM hangers was slightly torn. I believe the claims of the polyutherane as usual would be, reduced vibrations, prevention from knocking to the sway bar, reduce likelihood of stress fractures from vibrations to the muffler, eliminate excessive play. Thought I will admit, none of which the mentioned reasons are why I bought the hangers. It was purely because the price of the aftermarket one was the same as the Honda OEM one and I needed a replacement.

                      I've finished most of the stuff I've wanted to do. Just need to get some brackets fabricated for the side skirts and look at modifying the custom inner guards as there is rubbing. But i'll probably look at another set of 17's rims as I don't believe 18's will do the car any good for track. Other than that, just looking at different k24 setups to see what types of stuff we'll order.

                        Haven't got any mod updates yet. Still a few stuff to iron out. Just some pictures at a recent Honda event. Photos are courtesy of Gavin Host Photography and Epidemik Perth.
