Lightweight glass and wheelie bars

[gearspeed]

Ano ba ang mga lightweight glass na gingamit sa drag racing?Saan ba nakakabili o kaya nagpapagawa ng mga lightweight na glass?Alam ko lang kase plexi glass pero hindi ko alam kung saan meron nabibili at nagbebenta ng mga ganito.
How about those wheelie bars?Saan pwede magpagawa nito?
Binebenta ko na kase yung mga ek interior parts ko after kase nun bibili na ako ng lightweight glass.
Thanks.

lexan glass.Why do you need a wheelie bar?Do you have a monster horsepower?These are waste of money if you don't have a monster hp, imo.Save more money and get a turbo kit.

Mas magaan ba ang lexian glass kaysa sa plexi glass?Saan nakakabili nun?Ano name nung shop at contact number?

[ssaloon]

you dont need a wheelie bar if you dont generate monster torque.

[ghosthunter]

what car are you racing? your EK civic?.. wheelie bars on a FWD car?

[gearspeed]

Yup yung ek ko.hehe.Bago mag october kase ibebenta ko na sa banawe or sa evangelista(baka ibigay ko na lang sa kanila) mga hindi ko kailangan sa ek from rear seats at mga plastic sidings niya,stereo atbp.Pagagainin ko muna siya then next year engine swap na.Wala na nga siyang con air kaya dami nawawala sa akin na calories kapag gamit ko yun.

[wheelie bars on a FWD car?

Alam ko pang RWD lang yun pero I've seen it on a FWD ek chop top hatch sa PDRF event.The other was an EG hatch color gray.

[ssaloon]

lumalaki na budget natin ah...

Power before wheelie bars. Work on the suspension first, also... when your rear suspension is no longer enough to keep your front end tied down, that's when you need wheelie bars.

Lots of guys are into 11-12 second bracket without them. Heck, you probably won't need them until you're down to the fiberglass-lexan body level already...

[gearspeed]

Niky magkano ba aabutin kapag pinafiberglass-lexan body ko yung ek hatch ko?
Nabasag pa yung muffler ko nung sabado.It means kailangan ko na magscub.
Pagnainip na ako baka hindi pa dumadating ang october ibebenta ko na sa evangelista yung mga interior ko.
Nakita ko kase yung race car ni Philip Alvendia sa MIA.Naimagine ko tuloy yung ek ko dun.Kaya baka mapaaga pag kalas ko ng interior.Sarap kase kapag magaan.heheh

Bwahaha... ang hirap gamitin pang-araw araw ang naka-scav... grabeng ingay!

I can ask... Staging Lanes in Las Pinas seems to specialize in making fiberglass-lexan Civics (unless they buy it from someone else)... but a car like that will be even worse to drive day-to-day than a stripped car... para kang nakasakay sa go-kart na may rattly, plastic na katawan na nakakabit.

Suspension first. Get a good aftermarket suspension, reinforce it with polyurethane (it'll ride like hell, but it'll be planted), then some polyurethane engine mount inserts... I'm trying a solid poly mount on the Lynx now... idles like a Crosswind (brrrrrr.....brr.br.br.br.br.br... grabe!), but it hooks up very nicely. No wheel hop, despite the sticky tires. But it still hops at catastrophic-high rpm launches, because it's only my front mount that's poly.

Hindi ko naman madalas ginagamit yung civic ko eh kaya scub gagawin ko..Next week puputulin ko na yung exhaust ko.We are even planning it to be towed by our rav4.
Hirap na baka habang tumatakbo ako sa highway may lumalabas dun sa muffler ko na mga parts ng muffler.hehe

don't turn your car into rice.

[ssaloon]

full exhaust ka nalang.

[FrankDrebin]

Ask ko lang gearspeed hah.....


....Gaano ba kalupit ang kotse mo at kulang na lang ay maghelmet ka at magsuot ng firesuit para lang magdrive?

[HyBrideVo]

Meron pong gumawa ng naka wheelie bars na ek at eg hatch.Yung ek hatch ay sa DGL Motorsports color white wheelie bars niya dalawang gulong pa at yung EG hatch hindi ko alam kung ano team nun pero color gray siya.Kung nanood po kayo ng PDRF event sa macapagal before makikita niyo yun.Yung iba dun nagtatakip pa ng tenga sa ingay pero ako hindi I love the roar of their engines.hehe

Opo.

race car driver pa lang.hehe.

Wheelie bars actually do make a difference for front wheel drive cars. Anything that keeps the front tires on the road is a good thing.

Sayang lang ang kotse pag nag-full race ka. You'll spend a lot on chassis work.

Having fiberglass body panels isn't enough. You have to build a tube-frame tub, then skin it with fiberglass or lexan with plexi windows. Mahal! The shop I went to said they don't do work for customers, but they can arrange a special price.

Better nga, focus on doing street strip modifications. Turbo... or engine internals, cams and cam gears. Go for a good suspension set-up. Get polyurethane inserts for your engine mounts, and poly bushings for your suspension.

And last, but not least, good mags and tires. That way, you have a sub-14 second car that you can use everyday... not a ripped up drag racer.

If you want to do that, sayang ang hatchback mo... just buy a front cut from a EG hatch, then build a tube frame racer behind it, instead of tearing up a perfectly good car.
