So far, I haven't had any problems with law enforcement. The main other project I want to do is to add a manually adjusted air intake to the nosepiece/grill block so I can tailor the amount of cooling air needed to the amount of cooling actually required. Cooling isn't a problem this time of year, but in the summer, it would be nice to be able to close off the air intake when driving at night or other times when the temps are low.
The second windshield added about 4mph to my terminal velocity on the "calibrated" downhills on my drive. I drove through some light rain and didn't even notice it on the vinyl other than the occasional drop running back along the vinyl. Most of th rain (and bugs) follows the smooth airflow over the vehicle. And best of all, no evidence of the "A" pillar vortex based on the behavior of the water droplets on the front side windows. |

As far as I'm concerned, your car and Phil's truck are the benchmarks of the DIY aero-modding crowd.

Hello from Colorado. I have been parked in a snowdrift for the best part of the last month. Hope you can do better than that. Anxiously awaiting your test results. I have a question: I spotted a VX on ebay. Can you decipher the serial# and tell me if it matches for a vx. Thanks CO ZX2

I don't have a VX (mine is a CX with the engine from a DX), but that VIN looks like a VX to me.
The following site has a good rundown of the Honda VIN: https://members.lycos.nl/hendrik/honda/vin.htm 2HGEH2372PH543439 2=Canada H=Honda G=Passenger Car, Built in USA/Canada EH2=Civic 3 Door, 1.5L 3=3 Door Hatchback, Manual 7=VX Civic 2=check digit P=model year 1993 H=Alliston, Canada 543439=production sequence number |
