From the garage to the episode: A Kanjo -Spec CIVIC Type R – Speedhunters

Give the man a body set, and it will look great for one day. Give him a sheet of raw carbon fiber, and it will look cold for life.

Masato Nitta He lives through this philosophy, and he built two seats of one piece of carbon of one piece of its kind of Honda Civic to prove this. Of course, while this ancient Japanese proverb uses man in the context of humanity; Everyone can live with this philosophy.

On my last trip in the south to the Kansay area of ​​Japan, I planned to go and check the local civil scene in Nara, specifically a control store called Real Company. Unfortunately, the day before the shooting, a road crew on the street descended from the store, which limits access, so we will have to try again again.

I don’t want to go home with only one feature, I started to write to my local contacts, and asked me if anyone is aware of an interesting car I can photograph it immediately. My dear friend Park San came to save. It works in Tommykaira, and has two civilians, and it is known as all the modified Honda in the Kansay region worth knowing.

after a while “Sorry, I can’t make it” Messages from various owners, MASATO-SAN called to say that he will encourage a snowstorm and lead across the mountains from Nara to MIE and my site near the suzuka circuit. It has already been frozen by this time, the Long Drive house was not fun at all, so I prepared in my rental car with the entire heater and waited for the arrival of Masato-SAN.

I photographed a few civilians over the years, from the cars that were equipped to the sedans that turn, but nothing excels Kantgo is a contestant-Spec EF, EG or Ek Sporting Livery is good.

But we will enter into the rich history of that sub-culture again-at the present time, let’s check the construction of Masato-SAN …

Of course, inspired by Scoderia Alvatore F1, which turned into the use of Honda engines in 2018 (such as Toro Rousseau) despite being an Italian team. Honda, as a engine supplier, is synonymous with F1, so the presence of the external F1 character is very great.

Party piece, however, is the front -fetal front facade of genius. Instead of replacing the fenders, Bonnett and the employee of the ready-made parts, Masato-SAN fell on the DIY road and made a one-piece front pod in the garage.

First, Masato-SAN mobilized on the surface, closed the plate gaps before applying the glass fibers to make a template. Then this template was used to create a single carbon fiber piece. It does not need the joint. It is light enough to only raise Masato-SAN and put next to the car. I am sure that this would push any crazy ordinary person, but when the “race car is life”, it may become old.

Under Carbon Cowl, there is 1.6L DOHC VTEC B16B from EK9, and is now sitting on the most solid CUSCO motor holders and benefiting from the Tsuchinoko room in the J and ECU ROM ROM ROM.

The interior is the specifications of the CIVIC Street Pure, which is a six -point roll cage that works as an enhanced structure and every ounce of unnecessary weight. This means that there is no air conditioning, the cup holders, and certainly there is no sound system.

The rear end was strengthened with a tube frame below the pan’s pan, all welcomed by Masato-San. The cloud rope is proudly suspended, not as acceptable in an inevitable collapse but as a show to prepare to wipe the highway in the event of any accidents. It says, “If anything happens at all, I am ready to escape from the police even if an engines are detonated.” Live by the code, breaking the code.

Buddyclub P1 Racing Wheels is characterized by all four corners, wrapped in Dunlop Direzza V01 Ziii 190/600R15 SEMI-SAICKS specially manufactured for the Make One Make race series in Japan in Japan.

Improved stoppage strength comes from a group of NSX front brakes. Honda parts appear to resemble Ligo more than Subaru parts.

I wish I had more time with Masato-SAN and CIVIC, but I had to leave him at 10:00 pm with a four-hour front. Perhaps one day, I will drive Honda like this around the Kanjo circle or episode itself, but I was very happy to drive home in a great rented car on this cold occasion.
