Hi guys, thank you all for your compliments, I'm really happy
Btw, I need some help!

I have to choose between skunk2 pro 2 cams and the jun cams.
I know in Us skunk2 are cheaper than Jun, but here in Italy the final price is very close: so what are the best for road and track use?

Then...ludes are very heavy, so I have to reduce weight to be competitive in the track!
Do you know where I can find a carbon sunroof for the 5th gen?

Thank you

So you live in Aviano? Nice place!
Unfortunately Hondas are not so popular in Italy, so its very difficult find parts for our cars here. I buy almost everything I need from ebay Us or some japanese online shop such as Takakaira or Nengun.
If you need some used parts you can post a topic in the "Cerco" section of the honda club Italia forum:
www.hondaclub.it • Visualizza forum - Cerco

Other european online shop where I bought something in the past:
Showoff Imports.nl :: Europe's Nr.1 Import Tuning Store

J-SPEC PERF

Hope this can help you

Alcantara is a very famous brand here in Italy:
Alcantara®
A lot of italian and german cars have the interior made by alcantara!
Also sofas for the houses...and other applications I dont remeber.
So it's very easy for italian people find Alcantara...we have a lot of "interior" shop, I dont know what's the english for people that can create custom interior...
I think you can find alcantara in the Us, or you can buy it in some european ebay.

It's all about POWER to WEIGHT ratio

Thank you

This is a video of the last time I drove in the track...it's my best lap!

During that track day, the fastest hondas (one race-ready with the B18C engine eg6, one F20C poweredek4 and one DC5 with toda cams) made a best lap of 1.29.

My best lap, with my almost stock Euro-R engine and with full weight (except for the vis carbon fibre bonnet) and a passenger inside, was 1.32.
I was faster than all the Subbys wrx and Evo's VIII/IX!!!!

Not bad I think
I'not a good driver, so the so little distance with the lighter and more powerfull Civic was possible thanks to the exceptionel BB chassis.

With more power (jun cams), less weight and a closer gear ratio (maybe mfactory Fd...) I think I can spend a lot of good time in the track with my lude

Sorry for the bad camera position...my fault.

Enjoy

Dreamer, your Prelude is absolutely gorgeous! I'm usually not a white car kind of guy, but I'd take yours in a heartbeat! May I ask what kind of rims you had on it at first? Congrats on an amazing car!
