From Eric, our stealth SEMA correspondent, something competely different – a Civic that doesn’t scream “Lookatme!
Lookatme!” The folks at Skunk 2 apparently believe it’s what’s inside that counts, and here’s what they picked:
Powertrain – from Skunk2
- forged aluminum pistons
- forged chromoly connecting rods
- ported head
- prototype camshafts
- adjustable cam gears
- forged stainless steel valves
- titanium valve retainers
- prototype header
- prototype intake
More after the jump!
Other powertrain goodies include a custom forged aluminum flywheel with steel face, custom twin-disc carbon clutch,
high-volume injectors from RC Engineering and a Hondata ECU.
Chassis and Suspension – from Skunk2
- stiffer springs – 1800 lb front/2200 lb rear
- Moton shocks
- lower arm bar
Other chassis/suspension mods include Brembo brakes, 13-inch/4-piston front and 11-inch/2piston rear, and 18-inch
Volk Racing wheels.
Interior mods feature Recaro/Braille carbon/kevlar racing seats, Willans harnesses, a full-on rollcage, and AiM data
acquisition system. No word on where and when this car will be raced.
I think the Stealth Black paint is perfect – and a nice ?rat rod? reference for a pure performance car.
