I need to do this to my car. Hondata is so damn expensive though. I have zero mods. I have a k&n drop in filter but that's it. Can you help me real quick? Is it even worth doing without mods, and what is the least expensive way I can do this? I'm getting tired of the rev-hang.
@@scottgardner5918 yeah you have baseman’s too choose from but I wouldn’t run them for too long or too hard cause I heard it’s not healthy for your motor
Great video....I just bought one and came from a Mini R53, I miss the heavy steering feel of the German car, but the reliability and practicality of this car can't be beat......hearing the VTEC is fun too, but I miss the supercharger whine :(
hows the back seat room? ive always been debating between if my passengers are gonna complain about the leg room so i dont know between the fa5 and fg2
Ive driven a few s2000s but never an FG2 civic Si. How would you say the power delivery and sound of the Si's K20 compares to the s2000s motor? They look very similar on paper. Very helpful review btw!
I remember 8 years ago people hating on these civic si's HARD, all of a sudden, everyone wants one 😂
damn fr? i’m 16 trynna get one soon so hearing this is kinda funny 😂
Recently picked up an fg2 and let me tell you, a tune changes the character and you'll never go back to stock tune! Amazing review
That's awesome! How does it feel after a tune?

@@scottgardner5918 just get one used for $450-500 and don’t cheap out on car parts, you pay what you get for on these cars
@@Itsdjsigi if I spend the 500 for hondata, will I be able to tune it myself with preloaded software?

I'm trying to decide between an r53 S vs this Si. Coming from the mini, does the Si feel noticeably heavier or slower? How would compare the handling?
Coupes are so slept on.
Yeah they are great cars!
The 8th gen Civics are my favorite body style wise. Aggressive without being too rice looking.
I love my fg2, I like to call it the FWD S2000. Similar era, rev limit, and weight
Just bought one of these. Good review. I like that color.
Enjoy it and have fun driving the car!

@@DepthSeek I’ve had only my kids back there. They love it. But adults probably not.
That rev hang though.. 😢

My boy said fg1
good review. very capable as a track car, honda designed the suspension perfectly and make the best of a macpherson strut
Old school?
Honda paint on these cars look horrendous 🤦♂️😭 if you own a 8th gen or any other Honda ykyk
Nice review, but for your information any car sold for the US market is not JDM. Actually Honda never even sold an 8th gen si coupe in Japan.
They started making them for us in the country a long time ago and to our likings ha
When I first got my license, I wanted this card so bad...
Great video!
so with 90k miles (stock) for 9gs worth it?
Actually the 8th gens are a double wishbone setup in the front...and a multilink out back...its a far better sorted suspension than the RSX...
that's incorrect. 8th gens are McPherson strut front
Nice 👍
Em1 yes Em2 no..ep3 maybe.
