  1. Final Touch

    by , 08-08-2013 at 10:17 PM (Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer)


    Went out for the final test driving session.

    Activated the ABS in order to adjust the fluid level.
    Again, noticed that the ABS pump would kick in just after
    once or twice the ABS was activated.

    The accumulator is indeed loosing its high pressure capacity.


    Driving the car without the A/C in this warm condition is not nice.....


    Once again, really nice feedback from the new coilover kit.
    I wish I can

    As it was wet yesterday, couldn’t carry out the test driving session
    so waited until today.

    Even just leaving my place,
    immediately noticed the huge improvement.
    Not surprised after finding the broken bush on at least two of the
    old dampers.

    As the alignment service is not done yet and being as new kit,
    had to drive gently but even so,
    it’s just night and day difference.


    I set the dial for

    Not much to report while the car is going up and down on
    the lift to have its ride height adjusted and then moving
    back and forth the short distance with hard braking to
    rock the chassis.

    I haven’t carried out the test driving session yet but
    already feeling the huge difference by braking hard and also
    even when the car is lowered to the ground from the lift.

    Started to work on another NSX.
    The service menu is to install the BC Racing coilover kit with
    their standard spring but the rate at the rear is lowered to 8kg.
    Front is at their standard 10kg. The owner also wanted to
    carry out extra service menus but will touch on these later.

  5. BC Coilover with Swift spring 03

    Not much to report while I was adjusting
    the ride height.

    Can’t even remember how many times I went
    up and down on the lift and then removing the
    wheels to make the adjustment.

    Then, just move the car a little but don’t drive until
    all of the rubber bushing bolts are freed at the
    final ride
