Image Gallery	Since the Kakabox build thread is getting rather long (winded), I thought it might be nice to make a companion thread that would have links to some of the more interesting posts from the main build thread. This way all you'd have to do is search on "Kakabox Index" and then click on the link to get to the topic you'd like to review. I'll add to the index as the build thread continues... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Kakabox Quick Specs: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Weight: 1649 lbs. wet (5/29/2009; Longacre scales verified...1/2 tank of gas indicated, no driver) Wt Distribution: 65% Front / 35% Rear Cross Weights with 180 lb. driver: 50.5% Suspension: Front: Current Alignment (4/2010): Static camber: -2 degrees Toe (total): 1/8" toe out Caster: +5.1 degrees Lhs, +4.5 Rhs TEIN (MP) 16 way adjustable, short body dampers http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=370361 27.5 mm torsion bars http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=314635 HF steering rack (slightly quicker ratio) http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=215692 Integra radius arms (gives -1 deg neg camber just by replacing the 1/3g OE ones) http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=314637 Delrin radius arm bushings in aft position; ES urethane bushing in fwd 22 mm diameter 2wd 3g Wagovan stabar (largest OEM 1/3g front bar available) w/urethane bushings firstgencrx's adjustable caster/camber plates: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=370364 firstgencrx's bump steer correction kit Rear: Current Alignment (4/2010): Static Camber: -0.7 degrees L/Rhs OE toe HF axle (~13 lbs. lighter than Si/'teg axle; smaller OD, no internal stabar or provisions for one) http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=212569 TEIN (MP) 16 way adjustable, short body dampers re-valved for 500 lbs/in springs TEIN (MP) coil over hardware w/TEIN 400 lb/in springs Kakabox double adjustable panhard bar w/rod ends http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=421312 Kakabox rod-end trailing arms (copy of the Mugen version) http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=422267 Kakabox chassis mounted adjustable tubular stabar w/rod ended drop links Part 1: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=364794 Part 2: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=367277 Part 3: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=372796 Chassis Bracing: Kakabox 'fender truss' braces http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=232243 ...and: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=232978 ...and : http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=238845 Kakabox triangulated front strut tower brace http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=323443 ...fully triangulated (cross brace added): http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=461770 Kakabox pan hard bar brace http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=243295 Kakabox rear shock tower brace http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=246872 Autopower 4pt Roll Bar w/custom Door Bars: http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=400210 http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=473988 Engine ('88-'89 USDM Integra D16A1) Head: Rebuilt 88/89 D16A1 Street port & polish 3-way valve grind Shaved .050 ZC cams 88-91 Civic ZC intake manifold Megan Racing F22 (Prelude/Accord) adjustable cam gears '95 Civic fuel rail AEM fuel pressure regulator DC Sports header Block: Rebuilt 88/89 D16A1 Bored .5mm, decked, honed Resized rods Unorthodox pulley Tranny: Refurbished D16A1 Lightened flywheel ACT clutch '88 Accord 5th gear http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=315510 OBX LSD http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=315473 Engine Air: Kakabox air intake tube (copy of the infamous 'Whale penis') http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=459540 Kakabox Headlight Air Intake (HAI) http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=467528 Gutted OE airbox w/K&N panel filter Brakes: '86-'89 'teg front and rear calipers...pro-rebuilt units '86-'89 'teg proportioning valve 1/3g oe master cylinder (13/16" bore diameter) NO BOOSTER, OE mc direct mounted to firewall http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/inde...st&p=273199 WARNING: Not using OE vacuum booster will results in increased pedal effort required to stop car.
