Thanks for sharing Albo! A lot of good nuggets here about Spoon and their design philosophy. I like how they don’t make parts just to make them. There’s a purpose for everything 👏
It’s funny how everyone liked the clean look of the FL5 and that the previous people criticised for having a body kit. Now that Honda give us a German styled people need spoon and mugen to make body kits
does your fl5 overheat? You drive it hard on the track? I'm honestly scared that they would be as useless as the FK8 were on the track. The FK8 is 3 laps, let it cool for a while, repeat. That car was really a let down.
If I understand Jomoto-san correctly, the rear wing at it's lowest setting is generating more than enough downforce without setting it to max. So, the updates on the wing will be a slightly less aggressive looking angles on the main wing, especially when they need the car to be more slippery; because too much downforce is such a drag really.
This is what I love about Spoon Sports!!! Most of their vehicles like the EK9, DC2 Integra, and this one aren't really loud or aggressive (except to their S2k ofc), it's just subtle and more refined. Sure they have their own custom front splitter, side skirts and wing but it ain't like any other typical aftermarket widebody kits and tho it's just subtle, they're all functional tho. It's not always about brute power or speed but rather refined performance of the car, driving experience and the connectivity between a man and the machine. Totally love it!!!!
Such a cool job to have.I would love being in that type of research.Wasn't sure the cooling issue but a plastic hood moves about such as with the pro drifts,allowing heat escape. 😊
Me and my friend are going to japan in July this year and im so excited! I really want to see the real jdm culture and car culture in Japan, but i dont know where to start looking and go. Love the videos man keep it up
Real cool content . I’m appreciating even more every day my FL5 here from Florida 🤙🏽 I love this car ! Looking forward to plan a trip back to Tokyo. type one is on the radar 🙌🏽
This is William Park from Burbank and I wish I could be in Kapan living the life of luxury, like you and Sammit( yeah I know Sammit and the other yuotubers in Japan, including yourself).
Absolutely have to respect everyone's taste and opinions. It's nice you've found a new car you're so in love with and can enjoy and share that passion. The toxic slip up on the Supra is discouraging, so many car manufacturers borrow from each other and what Toyota have done is genius. For me the FL5 is in a different league to the 86, Z and Supra but not in a preferable way.
They didn't borrow, they literally took and rebadged everything. Nothing on there is Toyota other than the badges. Saying what he said is toxic and don't you think that makes you toxic as well? Lmfao what happened to men? Getting sensitive like women now because of words. 😂
Watching this video for the third time 😮💨😮💨 Albo, I would love for you to do a follow up video at Spoon discussing all of the latest and greatest products currently offered and future products in development. Cheers 🍻
It is with great confidence that I say: you're the only person in the world that would change a 2-person rear seat for a 3-person rear seat. 🥴 Finally more brands are making a 2-person rear seat! 👏👍
The one thing that Honda had with the Type R was that it used to be affordable, a great car for younger people to gte into the hot hatch market and have fun, but the last 2 gens skyrocketted t he price pretty much into unattainable for the target audience, which is a huge shame and miss from honda IMO.
One thing i always laugh at introduction is Albo with hair because when i started watching your channel u already had no hair, and gotta say, u look much better without hair. Greetings from Brazil!
Please please please use a steady cam. 🙏 You're making my head spin and can't freeze frame and see the background. I really wanted to see the other cars in there. Like the two DC2s.
Albo, how did the shift knob feel? Currently have an ‘08 Fit and a new Si on order. Been looking at the Spoon shift knob for a long time and I could use it for now until my Si comes. Keep up the great content!
Hi bro, how are you? Bro, im looking at going to JP on January next year if God willing, Im looking forward to go to see those iconic JDM tuner shops, What should I do? Thank you brother. :)
I like the FL5 especially the front end. I only don't like that boot spoiler. I think something made and painted in the body colour would look much better... Also why are Type R Civic's not made as a 5 seater for us family men who like Honda?
Im just trying to find out how this guy isn’t in jail.. like, he shows his face, while doing illegal street racing and drifting, his content is still fire tho 🔥🔥🔥

Spoon is keeping it pretty clean with their aero. Mugen is taking a different direction. There’s something for everyone.

I'm really impressed and love my FL5. I'm excited to see what Spoon will do next. Definitely, patiently, waiting on these improvements.
“Better than the Supra… sorry BMW owners.” 😂😂😂 So subtle

21:39 the same feeling I have with my car since 3 years! I just could be standing and looking at it for hours
The new Honda Civic Type R FL5 with the spoon body kit is looks so sick actually
I love these chats with Jomoto-San 🥰 its always so educating. Please dont stop giving Jomoto-San some screen time 👌🏼

This behind the scenes look into the Spoon FL5 is amazing, Albo! Thank you for giving us this opportunity!!!
Hope to see Spoon continue to develop a catalog for the Si as well! Not all of us have Type R money 😅
Time stamp 16:36 I think you put a dent on the aluminum when you knock on it.
Such a cool job to have.I would love being in that type of research.Wasn't sure the cooling issue but a plastic hood moves about such as with the pro drifts,allowing heat escape. 😊
I have never been into civics and even this one looks so good I want it. Adding tuner parts from a respected brand like Spoon makes it even cooler.

Love the rims! Best looking thing. The steering wheel too.
Great video Albo! Always nice to get more info on the FL5!
This is William Park from Burbank and I wish I could be in Kapan living the life of luxury, like you and Sammit( yeah I know Sammit and the other yuotubers in Japan, including yourself).
love seeing them getting more performance upgrades available

Toxic slip up? Relax, he’s talking about cars. You’re taking life too seriously.

18:31 the blue man shirt 😂. He got magic trick 😂😂😂
Awesome video as always Albo. The Spoon FL5 is so awesome and cool.
Very good straightforward explanation surrounding the Spoon FL5 as a type r lover I really enjoyed this video 👍
Watching this video for the third time 😮💨😮💨 Albo, I would love for you to do a follow up video at Spoon discussing all of the latest and greatest products currently offered and future products in development. Cheers 🍻
Haha, love the subtle Supra/BMW dig
22:24 “Spoon style is more simple, comfortable and fun to drive.”
- Jomoto San
No one talking about the audible knock \ rattle during startup? :O
And now I sorta really want it! Always a cool visit as Spoon shop.
Trying to be like you Albo. I currently have a FK8 Type R but wanting to shop a S2K AP1 to pair together
I love that if they can’t provide more performance than stock they won’t make it. Spoon is all about performance and it’s awesome!
You have to come to FuelFest Japan. IT will be an awesome car fest with music, drift, etc
Amazing car I love my 2018 fk8 still puts a smile on my face but hopefully I can own one of this fl5
A pic of your car was published on DSSports April 23!!
It is with great confidence that I say: you're the only person in the world that would change a 2-person rear seat for a 3-person rear seat. 🥴
Finally more brands are making a 2-person rear seat! 👏👍
Fl5 really does look amazing!
I love the spoon lip for the fl5
The one thing that Honda had with the Type R was that it used to be affordable, a great car for younger people to gte into the hot hatch market and have fun, but the last 2 gens skyrocketted t he price pretty much into unattainable for the target audience, which is a huge shame and miss from honda IMO.
type r was never affordable lol
ITR in the US cost the same as a v8 mustang, for something that made barely 200hp and where AC wasn't standard
Maybe when you change all your aero bits to Spoon for your AP2 then I would say rock that big sticker in the back window
I’d love to see more on their FL1 too. I also really need one of those jackets 😭
I used to like the previous Type R Civic, but guess this current one isn't that bad the more I look at it
Working at spoon would be a dream come true
Im in love with this car. Hopefully i can get one myself.
Keeping mine stock love the FL5 life
Are u gonna make a video about Masa and his new car and girl?😂
One thing i always laugh at introduction is Albo with hair because when i started watching your channel u already had no hair, and gotta say, u look much better without hair. Greetings from Brazil!
22:26 vibe agent 007
This car looks so so amazing 😻😻
That Spoon EK9 in the back tho!!!
I want to see that go over a few different speed bumps
I'm visiting Japan in June and would like to know where I can find information on where the car meets are at. I would like to go to a few!
Always insightful, keep it up 🙌 no.1 spoon ambassador
now this generation look great! with those spoon parts.
I've been waiting for 20 years for a company named Fork racing that primarily caters to Nissan or Toyota. I'm still holding out, I've not lost hope.
Awesome upgraded parts for the Spoon car. Ur
i think ur FL5 Should look like Spoon FL5, it's really look amazing
Please please please use a steady cam. 🙏 You're making my head spin and can't freeze frame and see the background.
I really wanted to see the other cars in there. Like the two DC2s.
do you have to make an appointment to do a Spoon shop tour? I love how they let their fans have free rein of the shop.
Hi, when will be the spoon front lip and exhaust for FL5 available?
Albo, how did the shift knob feel? Currently have an ‘08 Fit and a new Si on order. Been looking at the Spoon shift knob for a long time and I could use it for now until my Si comes. Keep up the great content!
hey bro just found your channel it seems like I found a good one def subbed
Spoon is the best. I hope they do the type s too
Great video man... Just a question... Does the car has coilovers or just springs?
Has this spoon wing thats available to the public , been revised,(Less downforce)?
Almost done paying off my daily and hoping to buy a Type R within a year or two.
Nice design front lip
AL-U-MIN-E-UM . . .now say it with me. ALUMINIUM
When is he going to post again I enjoy watching his videos?
Awesome buddy.......too good 👍👍
Hi bro, how are you?
Bro, im looking at going to JP on January next year if God willing, Im looking forward to go to see those iconic JDM tuner shops, What should I do? Thank you brother. :)
The only thing I don’t like about the new front is is how flat it is, almost like a truck instead of sloping downwards. Im not sure why they did that.
I like the FL5 especially the front end. I only don't like that boot spoiler. I think something made and painted in the body colour would look much better...
Also why are Type R Civic's not made as a 5 seater for us family men who like Honda?
I'm coming to Tokyo in 10 days. Where is the best place to go to see drifting? EBISU may br too far.
Just wondering most vloggers vlog about the GTR and TYPE Rs are there any community there in Japan that passionate about old lancer evos?
Hi, can I know what's the size of Spoon Velg? Is it R18 or R19?
He dented the aluminum on the center console when he hit it with his finger joint 16:36 😂 🤦♂️
I would actually prefer the front lip not to be carbon fiber
I say you should get or test drive the new integra type-s and compare that with the new type-r
Awesome FL5 SPOON
When is your FL5 coming?
been a while since ii watched one of Albo's videos, idk why i stopped i stopped in the first place ? 😅
I can't wait to visit Japan Spoon in few weeks 😅
no pun intended, if hes serious about the old generation then give us the duck tail for the fl5 out of respect for the heritage & logo back then
That ek9 is 🔥 🔥 🔥
Is Masa getting a Type R too? Cause he just got a GRMN Yaris.
Where can I buy those mirrors for the type r?
Great content! Aloha from Hawaii! 😎🤙🏽🙏🏽☝🏽
Bout to make this heat in gt7
You should change the headlights ❤❤❤
I am so jealous of you! Subbed!
In Japan is it legal to remove a steering that has an airbag?
alway awesome content Albo
Im just trying to find out how this guy isn’t in jail.. like, he shows his face, while doing illegal street racing and drifting, his content is still fire tho 🔥🔥🔥
NFS Underground 1 mad bunny livery 🤔
that lip is the best thing for the flg perfecttttttttttttttttttttt............. that lip will sell out
So no one is going to talk about that Honda V8 at the beginning of the video 0:05 on the right corner
What a sound👌🏼
I appreciate all sports cars but I thought it was funny when he described this car as looking aggressive. Lol
Do they really blow a engine just to know the max HP?! That’s crazy!
FL5 feels more JDM than Toyota’s GR lines for some reason
Spoon FL5 is so nice
