Feather King's Adventures: November 2007
http://featherking.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 18, 2007. The Feather King is BACK! After a very long delay. The Featherking is back! It has been such a long time since i've made a post, all this will seem like very old news. For those getting caught up, i decided on getting the Laguna Blue 2008 AP2. Unfortunately, in 2008 the V-Type is not offered, so i went went the standard model. the S-type seemed a bit too Bling for me. Quite amazing all this computer controlled stuff.

Feather King's Adventures: 2008 S2000 CR video
http://featherking.blogspot.com/2007/09/2008-s2000-cr-video.html
Tuesday, September 4, 2007. 2008 S2000 CR video. I just found a video clip of the new 2008 S2000 CR. The Club Racer (CR) version is what the US version is being called. The Japan version is being called the Type-S. Here you can see the Gumball Blue color. (which I really dislike). and it also shows the new interior color scheme that is only available on the Type S (black and yellow). I don't think the JDM Type-S version comes with the hard cover behind the rear seats. I think this is a CR option only.

Feather King's Adventures: July 2007
http://featherking.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 27, 2007. Well, I am pretty much convinced that I need to get the 2008 S2000 AP2. Since Honda stopped taking orders on the 2007 Model. Final pricing and order taking for the 08M won't happen until mid-late August. Order in August and I should be able to take delivery in October. (Hopefully there won't be any more large earthquakes to stop auto production). I need help from anybody/everybody that is reading this. My problem is deciding on the exterior color and top combination. This actually ...

Feather King's Adventures: Let the MODS begin!
http://featherking.blogspot.com/2007/12/let-mods-begin.html
Saturday, December 8, 2007. Let the MODS begin! With nearly 500 kilometers on the odometer. I got Fuji Speedway planned for tomorrow morning. (should have another 100 kilometers by the time i get to fuji). Since I am just got back today from London. I figured that would be plenty of time to get my sway bar that I kept from my AP1 installed on the new AP2. I started about 9pm, and after a couple hours, it was all in and working well. I finished up just in time before the rain started. Toyo Proxes R1R Tires.

http://jsg8.blogspot.com/2007/09/it-finally-dropped.html
A record of my circuit driving activities in Japan. Tuesday, 11 September 2007. Forgot to mention - scraped the bottom of the car something rotten coming out of the car park this morning at 5am. Luckily no frightened witnesses! Measurements to follow (nothing shocking but obviously lower than stock and too much for my car park! Roxy - a Mazda RX-8. Took a while to drop. I'm so curious as to by how much! Has it finished dropping do you think? Will it keep going? Questions need answering mate! Fuji Speedwa...

NCAL PCA DE and Autocross with my 996. Monday, September 07, 2009. Thinking of my camber settings, I was checking the settings from the latest alignment and found they had printed the corner weights on the receipt! Cross weight 1646lbs, 50.5%. Left weight 1637lbs 50.2%. Right weight 2067lbs 63%. Front weight 1188lbs 36.5%. The last section must be mislabeled though. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Thunderhill 2:10.6, 3/27/10, RE11.

Captain Zoom: October 2009
http://captainzoom.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
NCAL PCA DE and Autocross with my 996. Sunday, October 25, 2009. So I figured out why my front suspension is making creaking noises . The top heim joints aren't moving as they should. The right one isn't moving at all and the right one barely. Bad quality most likely. Not happy since JIC told me I needed some washers installed (which I had to pay for). And now I found out the real cause, which they most surely must have been aware was the cause. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
