For me the Fd2 has been the best type R ever made, without counting the NSX R
I agree with your statement a full 100%👌. Outside of the nsx type r. The fd2 civic type r is the best chassis to have had the type r badge placed on it. The fk8 is good for what it is. But the fd2-r, is just perfection. They captured the sweet spot with this one and it picked up where the DC2-r Integra left off in terms or the sensation and handling. But much better.
As crazy as it sounds I'd choose the 99-00 EK9🤩 over all of them
Agreed
The LAST Japanese real Type-R
The last one is the FK8 no?
I have an FK8 and you have to include the EP3. haha. hopefully they start making them in the motherland in the near future
Ya last NA Civic type r s were these fd2 generation
Yeah bro fk8 Type R isn’t so bad!.. pretty decent Car! Iykyk… Every typeR to this day that they came out with is decent as heck.. great cars, euro R, Dc2, Ek9, Fn2,Fd2,Dc5,Ep3 every TypeR they came out with always was some nice freakin cars imo… these japs are mad nice with these TypeR’s only when they go full on hybrid electric or no more Vtec, or no more Champ white colors, no more recaros, electronic e brake instead lf handle e brake, no more TypeR style is when they will be wack in my opinion….
@@Hanschepuhe meant the n/a type r
When Hondas still looked good..
Agreed
Still look good
But the quality is not the same
@@hondamanvtec2894cap they ugly asf now
My favorite Civic of all time. Even the SI model. I just love the shape and the overall build of the car, from the mechanics, engineering and design.
I drive a Honda now and I love them.. such personality such power..
That's the nicest fd2 I've ever seen or heard of 😮
3:35 that’s where I wrote my Honda off 😂😂😂
Damn bro the looks of this car is 10/10!
This is the R I would buy
Dude you can read my mind, I was like what about a high revving Honda VTEC machine.
Absolutely gorgeous FD2.. loved the music, your enthusiasm...
We had a base fd auto daily driver and i could feel the platform is really good and easy to work on and I'd imagine if it was the legit type R the feeling would be perfect.
One of the best car channels out there!
You should get a clip on mic because it’s really hard to hear you over that sweet sweet vtec
From a FD1 base model ? (Wooow!!!)
It's because it's a Civic. The aftermarket is insane.
I liked and subbed before watching vid...i knew it was already gonna be dope
I love the sound❤️
1:00 shes a screamer 😍
I own an FD2R and it is the best car i have ever owned!!!!
Already a classic
Another conversion.... Not even a genuine R. The reason the FK8R is so special is because you can't simply bolt on parts to an FK7. The FK8 chassis receives special reinforcement from the factory.
This car has had the full Type R conversion and so much more. The standard FD2R pales in comparison to this example in the video lol. The owner has spent tens of thousands dollars on this car to be the ultimate Type R - If you watch the video in full you will see a glimpse into the extent of this fastidious, well built example.
The FK8 is unique in its own right and a very good car at that but I highlight my reasoning as to why I would personally take this example over that car.
It's super fake. Genuine FD2 have adhesive bonded chassis. A conversion will never be as good as an original no matter how much money you throw at it.
@@pigupigu wtf what is this fd1?
lynfieldpenis this statement “it would never be as good” is complete horseshit 😂
Good is 100 percent subjective.
With aftermarket parts I can make a civic far stiffer, faster, brake better and handle far better than anything that came from the factory.
You might be one of these action figure collectors who, if the package has a ding or even slight discoloration, its such an abomination that it gives you fucking PTSD and you have to spend a month in solitary, however, most normal people would rather have very simply put *a better performing Civic* plus the fact that the type R is more expensive to purchase because of perceived market value created entirely by us. This is why when desire is absent or world circumstances change MSRP’s and private seller asking values also change.
Cost often has very little to do with the product being objectively good or better than others.
If you are going to full send build it makes more sense financially to buy a regular civic, than spend money on a Type R then to dismantle it.
This car will objectively outperform any regular type R. *Absolute fact*.
Enjoy your brand and trim level whoring while trailing at the back of the pack.
@@thomas0086 The point is it is the car isn't an FD2R as the video suggests. Would have been better to be up front that it is an conversion in the video title.
Goonzquad tunes! That intro music is from their channel. That exhaust has to much drone for me. Would drive me crazy.
It’s royalty free music so everyone uses it
As someone who has always preferred sedans over hatchbacks, this is my favorite Civic Type R.
Loved the review! Hoping you get more subs!
for me the greatest ever civic type R...
fd2.. no2.. ek9.
ohhh.. that heavenly..for me..
🥰🥰🥰🥰
My fav type R of call time
Awesome, love.. in every her parts, in every gears and steering turns! Pure driving Love, thank you for share with us.
Best type R ever made and this thing is packing with goodies. Just mega
The 8th gen interior of the type r is identical to the Si in america except the seat colors and tach color, i freakin love it
What a car !!!!!!
You have new subcriber ;) ! Good channel dude !
Can't wait for the update on this one.
The FD2R is one of the best from the R line up!
Happy to have the best and last Type R FD2 😍😍😍 Gotta luv this Japan made car.
Dear Wong..... Thanks for your sharing
I Luv Honda Any Type R model
Especially FD 2
Used to been got EK 9, DC 2
FD 2 cost lost of money can't afford it
Would you list out that FD 2 modify items for our reference
Please
You're a great reviewer. You deserve more subs.
I love everything about this car interior and exterior engine muffler and suspension
Love that car I have an usdm civic si four door you gotta own one to understand how fun an good the car really is!!!
At 2:35 you can t forget honda is a motorsport brand too
The best NA machine! 😍
we need another review of this car!!!
i have a fd1, i feel this type R is really beast
Clay, we can get the FD2R now imported to Australia!! Under the SEVS, and official as of this month. Get with Iron Chef Imports to get yours.
Awesome Angles And Views!!!
The last of the mighty Samurai
My favourite jdm
Best looking honda civic imo. Really bummed we never got the fd2r and the mugen RR for sale. If you ever get the chance to review a real mugen RR that would be content
We can get the FD2R now here imported to Australia!! Under the SEVS, and official as of this month. Get with Iron Chef Imports to get yours.
My dream car right here
fd2r my dream car
Can't believe it's actually N/A; Imagine installing a supercharger?~ A whole different animal. Amazing video Clay ~~
This guy spared no expensive. Lovely example.
Apart from the taillights it’s a great looking civic
Once a dream car. Still is.
Damn nice review also im assuming thats 190fwkw thats damn impressive, thing must boogey hard when your revving it high, top review as always
Sounds like 190kw atw
Dion L dd
They should bring this back
I owned 1.put it with toda build really worth money
Damn this video shows up on my recommended when im just about to drop 10k (plus my daily swift sport) on a fd2r here in NZ but still cant decide if its worth going back 10yrs and up about 80k kms for a better driving experience.
I used to own a dc5r about 2yrs ago and always wanted an fd2r but its so damn expensive! Fml idk what to do
Ignacio G follow your heart. Most who have owned regrets selling. Prices are a bargain!
I've sold my fd2r recently and I missed it so much.
It's a driver car,and its cheap to maintain it.
Basically,it never breaks down.
Very very durable!
@@leongyet9896 Yea, I'll never ever sell my car.
Buy it before it goes up in price.
I really want one of those
To be honest, I can’t hear what you said. You need to get a better mic or camera.
Best car of jdm
Dope!
What front lips is he using ? It’s not from JsRacing. Please help me out. Looks great on it 😍
I dream of that car.. soon
Japansese spirit 💥
Hi..can u advice what is
1) the size of tyre and sportrim..
2) additional side skirt lip and rear lip
Love that car
Wait, K20/24 hybrid build with ITB and only 190kw? People get that with no ITB and 93octane... why so low?
that engine only bring you the torque ..
not hp..
you must invest the extra cost for build up internal parts to break the 250-300hp..
dyno readings always seem higher in America
@@thatpersiandude7386 I was speaking in perspective of mustang dyno which reads lower than many. Fuel, elevation, temperature and humidity... Many more variables to create a difference in dyno # BUT 190kw just seem low for an itb and almost full setup. Maybe we can blame tuner wahaha.
A real jdm original from Japan 🇯🇵 as the real type r was extra welded to stiffen the complete chassis too
Isn't funny how the 8th gen civic is one the last best honda and in asian culture the number 8 is a lucky number. 🤔
Bro may i ask for the tire and mags size? Its hella clean! 🤙🤙
What kind of front splitter is that? And where can i get it? Thanks
I don't get it, calling a converted FD1 a FD2R...... quite a travesty i must say, especially from someone claiming to be a car guy.... great engine and numbers but it's not a type r...
the FD1 doesn’t even have seam welding.
This owner probably spent the $$$ to seam weld it.
FD2 Mugen RR :)
Would a LHD Conversion be possible in this car????
need more info on engine set up and exhaust!!
Coming right up! Will be posted in 24 hours - Getting the extensive list from the builders and owner now🤣
@@ClayWong sweet cheers!
Awesome car.
Which road were you test driving in this vid?
Private JDM import or just convert from base civic?
anyway how much you brought this babe.
Legal Australia import now
I miss my FD2R :(
Do a American mugen si.
It's been a year where is part 2?
more honda plz
Kilowatts who the fuck uses that to measure power lol 😆 😂 🤣.
Too bad it’s not a real type R, the fd2 type r had a completely refined chassis with weight savings and spot wielding
K20 4 banger best 4 cylinders
What do you mean we were never allowed the fd2r I can buy one right now in Australia
This is wong on so many levels
Why did you cover up the speedometer??
What type of exhaust is it
That's tidy as
What front bumper is that
It's still an fd1 no matter how many parts you throw at it. The chassis is not the same.
You got the point
What’s roads did you drive?
Pulls like it’s 270
ANYBODY KNOW WHAT FRONT LIP HES USING.????
How much horsepower again?
I think u should buy one
Meanest Civic Type R FD2R i've ever seen
Why are you blocking the speed?
Was this car drive by wire or cable throttle, I’m from the US I own a civic Si would like to install ITb but due to drive by wire not possible they say
Now that is a build I like everything about it
Fd2 it the n/a boss in the world
One of the cars that can reach 300hp with out turbo and hold it power easy as long you no watt to do
Pleas bring more content I want to no more
I drive a turbo 7gen that has a k20 turbo and the engine is a stock k20a and it not the type r version and it is on 8 lb. Boost and trust me that thing moves
254hp just incase no one knows what giggawhats is 🤓
