Still absolutely flat out. But this Sunday my Dad and I finally got round to doing the splitter I have had in my head for well over 10 years.
A long time coming would be an understatement.

I wanted the air dam to have an undercut and follow the EK9 lip perfectly. Thing we absolutely nailed it.
Also @honed_developments splitter mounts are the absolute best.

And the bonnet is back to black again.

Had a quick opportunity to try a few wheels on my ek9.
Conclusion - CE28N’s are still the best by a long way!
Silver is definitely the best colour too.

CE28N - 17x8.5
TE37 - 17x7.5
TC105X - 17x9
RegaMaster - 17x9
RP01 - 17x9

@rollhardd last weekend. Parked up with the @fuelgoodgarage guys. A great mix of golden era civics. All K swapped but built all with their own end goal.

@dc5_nat purchased a new car recently. Fresh in from Japan. A Subaru BRZ ex demo car from Drivers Cafe Forest.
It’s extensively modified too! Turbo charged, Endless brakes all round, Cusco suspension and cage just to name the highlights. And being fresh from Japan the underside is its amazing rust free condition.

In the Lab for a FULL service and post purchase check over. Replacement front bottom ball joints and a chassis setup.

What a great Saturday night. @rollhardd always does it best. @stockyardmeltonmowbray was a top tier venue too.

Did a couple of laps in @christopher.daniels.562 G87 M2.
God these cars are good. Very basic car too performance wise it’s all stock bar the chassis upgrades we did. Ohlins DFV’s, Millway front top mounts and Hardrace rear toe arms. And of course a Grip Lab setup.

I’m a little annoyed how fast I caught Chris up in my car. They are a little closer performance wise when I drive the EK9 but the pace this has down the straights is wild!

The M2 is 25mph faster down the back straight before the chicane!!! And for once it’s a BMW with good brakes. Although we will upgrade these for next year.

All round cheat code car. And I hate to say that 😂

Monday way mega. Another great day at @bedfordautodrome for an @msvtrackdays

@maattlock & @christopher.daniels.562 both had a drive in the EK9 and a did a couple of sessions in Chris’s M2. Grip Lab days out are the best.

Rather than some EK9 onboard I have a different perspective to post next.

So J’s Racing front wings. Though they would give me some extra clearance…… turns out I had managed to flair the stock metal wings a good amount. They also fit like ass, although this is common knowledge and was expected. Metal wings mean any slight tyre contact at speed won’t end in damaged outer lip. These J’s wings still sit very close to the tyre on lock. And I don’t really want to raise the car any because my mother didn’t raise a bitch. So the chance they get yeeted is high.
I’ll leave to stock wings on for the rest of the year and re visit the J’s wings over winter. by @tegboy

I should have posted this way sooner!

Shot by @full.lock.photo / @maattlock at our @_griplab x @6two1 track day at Blyton Park in the summer.
Looking to do a couple more of these next year. And expand on just track time too.
