That Civic is insane! So it shall be very similar to the Mugen Civic in GT5.
Yes. The had to replace some parts to make it compliant with FIA rules. It originally had an aluminium rollcage, so they replaced it for a steel one. This car was used in the European hillclimbs.
Thanks for the update. Car is looking good :smile: :smile:
Some more updates:
We adjusted my seat for the most optimal position, so we had to fabricate a custom steering column and make it a bit longer. The problem now is that we cannot see the original speedo and rpm meter anymore and the dashboard doesn't fit anymore. So we had to improvise
Through R-Developments (Bas on NSXPrime) I got an AiM MXL to replace the OEM cluster:
And I started making the first mockups of the new dashboard with cartboard. The final one will be made of aluminium and be flocked black.
This is how the car sits now:
This is not the final shape of the splitter, we made it extra big so we had room to cut it in shape.
The front bay:

Badass.
Looking great. I sure hope you will be ready for the trip in May...
I notice that you have installed some reinforcements bars to the lower battery tray.
Since that is merely a relatively think piece of aluminum, did you somehow reinforce that as well??

It has been replaced for a completely custom frame. It supports the front splitter and it is strong enough to lift the car on it 
that look great

God that looks great! I lived and worked in Assen for a couple of years back in the late 80s. I wonder how much it has changed since then. The bike TT race was a big night out. Or rather a big week out....happy memories!
Love your NSX!
