      Same. Over the years I've gotten away from these older, simple cars and into a Cadillac ATS-V at the moment. My cadillac is easily the best car I've ever had on paper. It's comfy, fast in a straight line, fast around corners, etc. Still, it feels like there's something missing. In the next year or so I'm probably going to start building an EK or EG hatch as a track car. There's just something special about these older cars.

    I remind me of the first car I bought brand-new and drove it for 300,000km before trading it in. It was also a 98 Civic Hatchback with Eibach and Koni Shocks. However, I had upper and lower rear strut bars to tweak dynamics. Back then, I never understood that you had to brake deep into the turns to compensate for the under-steer cause the Civic's front double-wishbone suspension would compensate..even in the worst situation, where the car should be swapping ends, it somehow still steer in the direction I pointed it. That 98 Hatch setup was like art in motion (with no need of electronics)...wish the manufacturers could bring this back.

    Go a little softer on the front bar and it will be faster around the corners I think. 650# springs is typically the upper limit of those Koni Yellows unless they are specially valved or the SPSS. The big front bar might be over powering the dampers a little and helping cause a little loss of traction.

There is actually a team that raced in the One Lap of America series that used to race a CRX with a k series and swapped to a miata with a K series and started to break track records for their class with the miata. They literally called it "the best chassis with the best motor for road racing." A fully purpose built CRX track car should actually be faster than a civic in theory and practice because the chassis is lighter. The balance of a properly setup 50/50 weight distribution miata with a k series is a force to be reckond with.

      doesnt really matter what motor it is... really more like how he has no power steering or ac or a a chair that cant recline becuase its a bucket /race car and loud exhuast that will get stopped by police....too a regular person that doesnt sound like a its setup for daily comfort does it? want a nice daily? maybe an acura it has all the features for a comfy daily ... leave the track car for whats it built for.... racing....

    • @SS-du7tr
      @SS-du7tr 4 года назад

      I thought the same thing. Though, I can think of a few things: no a/c, no back seat, it's pretty loud, and too many speeding tickets. You could install a/c, fit a quiet exhaust, keep it looking/riding mostly stock, and not drive too fast all the time but that isnt likely to happen.

    • @speedacademydave
      @speedacademydave 4 года назад +11

      Oh it's a very reliable engine, but Kaval's car has very stiff mounts in it and a 3'' exhaust so it's loud and pretty harsh on the street.

      The Succ the car is quite reliable and fantastic for a *dependable* daily driver but it lacks the creature comforts that make it a real daily driver for all seasons. I do miss driving it every day, but I’m infinitely happier with the direction the car has taken now. We still enjoy our 8th Gen Civic Si for a daily though ;)

      @makeitshine108 4 года назад +1

      I'mAlive I daily drove the car for about 2 years but with winter, lack of AC, stiff suspension, low ride height and loud exhaust, it slowly becomes a worry every time you have to drive it anywhere that isn’t the race track. Being that it’s also a thief magnet, you can’t really park it anywhere without severe anxiety LOL! So we got ourselves an 8th gen Civic Si for a daily because we still love to rip some TEC 😁
