You having the time of your life man this is awesome 🤩
Hey man, your DC5 is step up really nicely! i just got mine earlier in the summer (basically stock) and been slowly fixing and upgrading her... did a few track/auotcross events but plan on doing more with her, hopefully ill be at your level soon lol
TheRealTDawg awesome man! Let me know if I can ever help with your build!
Awesome video!! The TTRS can’t keep up with you lol. Just subscribed!!!
Great example of a Dc5 done right.
Nice one bro🔥🤝👍💯
I just realized I came across your pictures on Club RSX! I used one of your side profile pics on the track as my background for inspiration. Just picked up an 02 type-s myself and plan on time attacking as well.
Do you have a build thread? Hoping to see more content on your YT soon!
Haha nice! Looking forward to hearing and seeing your build. I do have a build thread but it is not complete and has not been updated in awhile.

Enjoy, let me know if you need any tips/advice about anything, and thanks for commenting!
Have u ever drived without the caster plate? What's the diference with more caster? I only have caster bushings
Bruno Manco yes, before the caster plates I was running the top hats from the Buddy Club RSDs, which provided about the same amount of caster as the stock suspension. On hard braking, the car would be unstable and I was often fighting to keep it straight; with the caster plates it provides a lot more stability given the change in suspension geometry when you’re braking so hard. Additionally, I got better steering response with the higher caster angles. While this is a personal anecdote of my experience, here is more info about the caster plates I’m running: www.dvrace.com/caster/
Hope that helps!
Did you ever run into any weird alignment issues while tracking the rsx? Any suspension issues? Tie rods, coilovers, rack slider etc?
Absolutely. Long list of items, but for starters you’ll eventually need/want: extended tie rods, front lower ball joints, camber bolts for the front and arm for rears, caster plates (I got mine from Todd’s with DaVinci Designs or engineering, forgot what they’re called, but also pretty sure he doesn’t make them anymore) - all that on top of the coils you choose. Once you get everything dialed in though it’s pretty much set to go.
Sik build!!! Just subbed. I'm looking to get into time attack in my dc5 it's a k24/k20 just need some wheels and tires. What front sway bar are you running. I'm currently not running one due to header clearance issues. Thanx and keep up the great vids
b20vda thanks so much! Sounds like you got an awesome build going, the k24/k20 setup is great. I’m actually running a stock front sway, Hotchkis rear. It’s a great setup to get the rear rotating! Let me know if you have any other questions.
What is dollars the nsx honda ône for sale what is the prix just one cars
Question for you, where are your mounting points for the splitter, specifically in the rear towards the firewall. If any. Thanks.
Of course! The mounting points are on the car frame, right underneath the firewall. Two female steel pieces were custom fabricated and welded onto the frame, and two male pieces were fabricated and bolted onto the splitter on each end, making for really easy installation and removal. The front of the splitter has 4 mounting points, all on the frame-2 on each end underneath the headlights bolting perpendicular to the car and 2 on both ends of the radiator where the bumper support bar would have bolted up, bolting parallel to the car. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!
Ok, that's what I was thinking you did for the rear. My issue is that my splitter doesn't go all the way to the firewall. It goes to about the rear part of the subframe. I still have to figure out a way to attach the splitter from there.
@@midwestkproductions Ah okay. I'm thinking you might be able to do the same for the subframe, you just have to fab up the pieces. Shoot me your email if you can and I'll see if I can find a picture of my splitter to help.
Subscribed! What roll cage is in the car? Cusco?
Nico Dc5 thanks man! It’s a custom 6-point 2.5” tubing roll cage fabricated by John Grant in Portland, OR. If you are nearby, he can build one for your car out of AR Auto Service. Hope that helps!
Who makes/made your 6pt cage?
John Grant from AR Motorsports in Portland www.ar-motorsports.com/our-team check them out! I can link you directly with him just let me know.
What are your spring rates?
12.5 kg front / 16 kg rear (Buddy Club RSD rates, except I got a shorter coil for the front and it added half a kg). Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome!! What mods have you done with engine & exhaust?
Thanks!
Engine:
Stock K24A2
Injen CAI (here, but just got a titanium short ram fabbed up that sits behind the driver side headlight)
RBC Intake Manifold
ClubRSX Header (here, but have a new one that was recently fabbed up by a good friend DOC Race in Portland. You can check it out on my IG page: @hptimeattackrsx)
Custom 3" Exhaust
Hondata KPRO
210whp/165tq (has not been on a dyno in a long time, but I'm guessing these numbers may change a bit with the new pieces. I've also added in RDX injectors.)
Hoang Pham sweet!! I’ll be upgrading my Dc5 finally! Left it stock for to long
Any more vids/update with the car ?would love to see more vids 👍
Haven’t had much time with the car, hopefully will get it out again soon!
What offset are the wheels for the rear? And what are your alignment settings for the track?
Rear wheels are +35 but a +22 would fit just fine.
Alignment:
Front Camber: -3
Rear Camber: -2
Toe: 0 front and rear
Caster: +6 (fixed with Todd's caster plates)
Hope that helps!
Thanks! Just finished putting together my k20/k24. Starting to work on suspension parts. Hope to hit the track soon. Picked a set of 57dr from my friend and they are +22 all around. Planning on running 255/40. Worried about having to run excessive camber in the rear. I know the fronts will fit fine. Unfortunately Todd doesn’t make the caster plates anymore, but PCI just designed one that I ordered. Looks like a nice piece and I know adding caster will significantly help.
Christopher Vo nice! Looking forward to the build! Just a heads up, but I’m sure you already know while the +22 will fit you are going to have to roll the rear fenders. Unfortunate Todd isn’t making the caster plates anymore! Great that PCI does, let me know how they work out!
Were Todd’s tie rod ends required for you to correct the toe? Todd has one set available, debating if I should pick them up or not if it’s absolutely required.
@@xlitovi3tbo1x Yes, they were. I would highly recommend them. Before Todd's tie rod ends, even after being able to adjust the toe to 0 with the factory tie rods, they would pop out of place just driving on the street.
How much did you gut the car in order to drop that much weight? I'm assuming only the essentials are in the car?
Hi Chris! Only the essentials are left. All interior except for the dash is gone. Everything behind the dash except for wiring is gone. Doors are hollowed out and sunroof assembly was replaced with an aluminum plug (much cheaper than doing an ITR roof skin). Removed all sound deadening as well. I still have yet to clear out my engine bay, which probably won't get done until I repaint the car. The cage probably adds a good 80-100 lbs. Let me know if you have any other questions, glad to see another DC5 on the track!
@@_hoangpham What did you do for the windows of the doors? I'm wanting to cage my car as well and plan on completely stripping it down.
Chris Derby no windows! I may have some fabricated in the future but if you look at the picture at the beginning of this video you’ll see the hollowed out passenger door.
@@_hoangpham what material is your cage made out of?
Chris Derby steel 2” tubing
What offset wast the 17x10 front wheels?
+18
I think that was the rev limiter man
I actually figured it out-looks like my spark plugs were toast!
@@_hoangpham That's funny. I just changed my plugs 2 days ago. I was getting some engine pinging under load and hard starts in the mornings. Drives like a champ now.
