Tsukuba Machine Check! - The Garage Work x Impact! EK9 - Atsushi Komiya

In a time where the K Series reigns supreme among circuit driven Honda's, Atsushi Komiya stands firm in his commitment to the B Series motor. His pursuit to become the fastest B Series Honda at Tsukuba reached a milestone early in this season after finally breaking into the 56 second lap range (56.888 on December 27th), coming within a tenth of Tokue's 2017 time of 56.7. Tokue also had a B18C, but it was bored to 2 liter.
Komi's EK9 underwent a serious transformation over the off season, reducing the overall weight of the Civic to an impressive 760kg. A new tube frame front end, Workshop Takumi dry carbon aero, and new gearing tailored to TC2000 all helped to thrust him into the 56's. The engine, built by the Kyoto based Impact!, has lasted Komi 6 entire seasons without major issue (the block had to be replaced last year), and is actually now a B16 block bored to 1.8 liter, with a B18C head (IIRC).
Get a close look at the build in our latest Machine Check! video, including an in-car video of his 56 second lap. Look forward to a full gallery to follow //

Love seeing these machine checks, where we can nerd out on the details. Interesting to see no rear cage but the reinforcement points added.

Garage work civic are pocket rockets.

[@tegboy]

Love this car so much. Some weight to be saved in the stock wiring loom, fuse box setup and going with a pdu and dash

[@NaritaDogfight]

@@tegboy adding a pfm/dash would certainly add weight

[@fvr12345]

Honest question. How come they don’t run a rear sway bar and why just a bolt in cage?

[@flokiloki6845]

If big springs are in use then sway bars are useless and extra weight. Maybe there is no sway bar at front too!

[@Crimson_Strider]

No strut tower bracing in the rear... Is that to allow more flex and grip?

[@danielcalquinhas447]

Oem rad? Wild lol

[@NaritaDogfight]

lightest option

[@power_of_r6033]

I'm curious, Is the Toda Sports Injection Kit 45mm or 50mm throttle?

[@valentinovalentino77]

This Honda Civic is fucking bad 😎

[@bobdobbs6969]

Well, in Japan, we know the next major weight saving upgrade is 'unmanned EG6 Honda Civic' for Suzuka. Lol ;)

[@TheitalianSuperbattle]

Seeing takumi so old without his blond hair makes me absolutely sad 😢

[@NaritaDogfight]

@@TheitalianSuperbattle he's still young at heart
