Yeah! But you can develop one for the stock dimensions if not now but later. The flow of the front bumper is really nice. And the turbo kit......

 

just curious, i see you guys gutted the car... how much did the side curtin airbags weigh?

 

are u gonna sell any of the spare parts b/c i'd be happy to take some of those stock parts off ur hands. Also, i was wondering why you guys shaved the rear door handles off and it looks like you guys flared out the rear quarter panel metal? i was wondering why u guys cut that. That was the only thing i didnt like on the car but none the less WOW!!!

 

Yeah, we turned the car into a wide body. I think the intent was to offset the visual impact of the height and give it a more balanced look. As for the door handles, we shaved those because with the current interior configuration, no one is getting in the back. Not unless they're a contortionist.

The spare parts will be saved and used as ornaments on our christmas tree this year. Some of them may make it into our garage sell but no word on that yet. It's too early to say.

 

Can u guys tell me what kind of forged pistons u are using? And also the size and the compression, please ? I'm running 0,5 bar and I know u guys do more than that. I'm planning to increase the boost to 1 bar and i don't want to melt the pistons. The car looks awesome! When is the the spec sheet coming?

 

Our engine builder said we used Wiseco forged pistons 10:1 compression, 1mm oversized.

 

Nice ...... been waiting to see what you Skunk2 bods were going to do ..... in the UK we only get the 1.3 i-DSi engine (no VTEC) ... so do some of the bits fit on the 1.3 (mainly the turbo!!!)?? I've got a gear knob from yourselves that was on my old EK4 on the Jazz ... sorry Fit but couldn't make the short shifter fit!!

Shame I won't be able to see the programme ..... looks good though!!

 

allright I will bite:
When is the program going to air?? Or is this two months old??

what size wheels are you running the size/weight/and tire sizes.. also any rubbing?

 

i agree, rear disc breakes is something i want too!

it sure looks amazing!

 

Gonna watch tonight!!!

 

Wheels: Volk GT-7 18x7.5 +44 Gun metal with polished rim.
Tires: BFG g-Force Sport 215/35 ZR18

No rubbing that I'm aware of.

 

I have been watching this challenge on speed tv since the beginning and it seems as though the other teams are getting more air time than Skunk2, very dissapointing. Maybe I'm wrong, biased and just want more!

 

Thanks for the support! Actually, the show is divided evenly between the three vehicles. It might seem as though we're getting less cause you see the Autoworks guys and interior guys working on the car.

 

yeah skunk had one guy that decided not to show up one day or showed up like 3hours late.. and they aired that like twice!

I had a question though about the intake manifold you using, is it the stock Fit one or is it from another car.. or what.. ?

 

Saw a pic of the S2 exhaust in Oct '06 issue of Super Street. It looks so badass!

Is that the 60mm you will be releasing shortly and if so will it be too big in diameter for a stock Fit?

I assume you went that big because of the turbo and other engine mods but i am only planning on doing I/H/E for now. I really want to get the exhaust but i don't want to lose low-end by going too big.

 

Yeah man tip us off on any cross/ car parts that fit the FIT! What manifold? I also noticed that you are using a rsx TB i think? Switched to cable! easy?

 

what kind of wheels did you guys put on the car? also what size are the wheels and what tire size are you using? looks great!

 

I noticed that you are using Quaife LSD. Do they make for Fit already? If not can you tell me which model will work for Fit (RSX, Civic, or else). Thanks guys...
