Just bought mine. This is a big part of the attraction. All the tuning roads are already well travelled. This is exactly what I was looking for dude. Thanks!
I never got this car thinking of power. The power delivery is genuinely so stimulating and addictive but it's the way the car feels when in the twisties. How does it ride the road? Corner? Brake? You address those things even on a smaller, less expensive scale and you've got one of the most fun, great looking and practical cars money can buy to date!
Glad you enjoyed it though 🙏🏾
@jsdriveway exactly that my mate. As for mine? Trim / consumable wise. It's rougher than a 5 quid handy. But, mechanically and the metal work is all sound. All I wanted from a near 20 year old motor.
The plan is to throw maintenance at it and slowly renew her. Where it makes sense to uprate, I will. I see these as a future classic for sure.
Unreal what happened to your great FN2 in a year is unreal and that is understated. I love the tips and tricks of the FN2. If you notice anything, you look it up.
Just bought a 2008 FN2 type R, dropped engine oil, filters, new plugs etc, 6 weeks in and no problems to report, i swear to god drives like new, just fitted a K an N panel filter keeping the original air box and cold air feed, and yeah i can feel a difference in response.
Mercy Christmas dude , enjoyed that 👍
Merry Christmas to you too man, thanks for feedback 🙏🏾
Definitely agree on the maintenance and tire front! 👍
Induction kit is normally my first mod, can't get enough of the noise. 😉
Yeah I did think about doing that but considering I didn't do it myself and that to get the most out of the induction kit you need to get it remapped which is more money on top, I thought I'd leave it out haha.
That amongst other mods will be coming to the civic very soon 👀👍🏾
Love how you didn't just dive straight into power mods!! You see what's important from these machines! Respect brother 👊 x
Appreciate the feedback man. Yeah it was never about chasing power from the jump, and even when I eventually did, it had to compliment the rest of the setup I was shooting for 😎
Good video mate
Very much appreciated man 🙏🏾
great video mate
Appreciate the feedback, it goes a looooong way, trust me
Great advice dude 😁
Appreciated dude :)
best engine mods for yer money for the fn2.
70mm tegiwa single exhaust
japspeed 421 exhaust manifold (decat)
RRC intake manifold.
any 3.5 inch Cold air intake with least amount of bends in it.
with an ecutek tune you will net 230BHP. ( thats a 50 HP gain in the midrange when Vtec lowered to 4500 rpm.)
Yeah that's like the best mods for bolt on power for sure. I've done sooo much research on power mods in the past year 😂😂😂
@@jsdriveway dynodaze are the best IMO.

Next fd2 TB,oilpump and cams 😏 245-250hp.
Wish I had decat MOT friendly garage , gonna end up 421 sport cat manifold if thats even a thing 🤬
@@HondaK20 think you need the lo ver runner intake plenum as well ....... At an eye watering £500+ second hand 😭. Bloody scene tax lol 🤣
Installing 15mm spacers all around with Eibach Pro Kit installed, will it rub? Car is all stock except for the lowering springs
Won't rub at all. You can get away with 25mm all round without rubbing. You're all good 👍🏾😎
@@jsdriveway thanks!
I think you only have to change drop links if being lowered more than 50mm from standard ride height?
Yeah I only spoke about the drop links because more often than not, if it's the first time looking at your suspension after a long time of there being no replacement parts, the drop links can and do corrode really easy. Plus it being lowers does put extra stress on standard drop links. Not enough for them to snap but still it isn't at its happiest haha.
@@jsdriveway yea it will put pressure on them, wear a bit quicker. How much shorter were your drop links than original? Tbh I wonder if the Fn2 type r has the same length drop links as a standard Fn2? If that was the case then it may exceed 50mm ?
@richardd8352 I bought some adjustable Hard race ones second hand from Onamission a while ago and only just recently had them installed by Honda HQ (don't know what length they were adjusted to - sorry!)
I'm not sure if they're them same size as a normal FN model though, that's something to look at.
If the droplinks I currently have came didn't come up in a great deal, I wouldn't just replace with OEM because, although I am lowered, it isn't crazily low...
Best tire I tried so far on my FN2 is Falken it’s noisy but roll response is instant
Interesting. I've seen them before on forums - what's the grip levels like?
For me GoodYear Eagle F1 Supersport. 235/40/R18 😊
Interesting - never used the supersports before. Are they more for track or road?
@@jsdriveway Cheapest way then PS4. With simillar results. I used on street and don’t will change.
@@HondaK20 ps5 if you want good tires that last longer to
If you can't afford a exhaust system cutting out the Rez on its own will give you a ripper of an exhaust note, bit of pipe couple clamps
Haha I did this about a year into owning the car but I actually got it cut and a pipe welded in cas I wasn't sure on putting a new exhaust on it
@@jsdriveway mine is welded aswell but clamps make it accessible to anyone I was thinking , what a difference without a Rez on a std system really let's the fn2 rip for next to nothing . Great vids chap 👍
That is a good idea to be fair, I didn't think along those lines hahaha.
Thanks for the compliments, it goes a long way 🙂
@@jsdriveway I almost feel like we are entitled to steal the iconic phrase from mad maxes " this is the last of the v8 interceptors" lol " the last of the rpm banging k20s" lol
Lool 100%. Because genuinely, this is the last NA Type R. Someone should make a sticker saying that haha
@ 1.56 - if you have £200 dont buy spacers . You know us well 😂😂
Been there, wore and endorsed the T-shirt lool
