I've contacted Car Craft Boon some time ago for quotes for their parts and shipment overseas and the conversation somehow went down to suspension setup for 3G Civic and no one else but Kazuhiro Furukawa himself sent me a description of his track day E-AT's setup. It's quite interesting actually, I don't know if I can share the whole thing but I can paste the most interesting bits:

"Front brake is a brake rotor and dedicated NSX caliper"

"Brake master fitted with ITR processing"

"The shock front, I am wearing the spring."

He also said that he runs custom coilover system and custom top mounts with camber adjustment and rare mugen torsion bars...



I only hope he doesn't mind me sharing this :S

If you look at the photos, the detailed ones, you can see most of his secrets. The coilovers up front and neat, and just confirmed that he is actually using them in conjunction with the torsion bars. Awesome. Thanks for that piece.

CAR CRAFT BOON!! These guys know how to do it. I read an article that super street did on their shop, and what their about. They have rare goodies on hand ( well rare to us anyway ) . They also have some very wicked hondas that they have built, not to mention the loop 5 wheel they made.

[spuker1]

Loop 5 aren't made by them, they are just custom series of Work wheels made with association of Car Craft Boon

I might actually ask him to have a look at red pepper racing or maybe even answer some questions for us. If he agrees we could get some Q&A with him

I posted a video of this the other week in 3g civic videos check it out mate its well worth a watch they have a few but the one I posted is what I hope to have one day soon

[spuker1]

Would you mind reposting that video into this thread too?

[ndak1genrex]

A Q&A would be awsome! And thanks for setting me straight on the wheels.

Would you mind reposting that video into this thread too?

Yeah no problem mate once I get to I pc I'll do that , I don't think there is enough video's in general of 3g civic's I know I will upload a shed load once my build is done and would like the urge people to post more on youtube etc. There video's are real hard to find on youtube , in one vid that exact civic smokes a integra , s2000 and a r35 gtr lol like I said its savage to say the least

[spuker1]

There's an onboard video of that exact civic on youtube going around Tsukuba I think in Hot Version race.

edit: Sorry, it's on Motegi not Tsukuba and I don't think it's the same exact civic but here you go:

I wonder from what other car they use the front struts cause i have seen one use struts from a 91 civic and the shaft is a little to skinny.
