Good engine, light, reliable, simple, good gas mileage even when dogging it and parts are abundant without breaking your wallet. Hondas are the Legos of cars when it comes to modification lol. Perfect project cars.
Love your build man!! You’ve done everything I’m hoping to do to my 8th gen si. Haha I believe I went with the same coil overs you did and I’ve also regretted them so far. Wished I went with bc from the beginning
Makes me miss my FG2 Si alot I really feel the 8th Gen Si is destined to be a classic as its the last pure raw Honda. You gotta do the FD2 front and rear end swap it totally transforms the FA5 look.
@@maxlithium1190 do Full Bolt ons for now intake/exhaust, Hondata tune to reduce rev hang. Leave the suspension for now unless if your gonna auto-x or go track.
B Series guy for life but that’s a very cool build. B series stuff is getting so expensive so I’m starting to look at K series stuff. Good video and new subscriber
@@LJ-rp3ib congrats man I really would have loved to get an SI but I didn't have the money to get one and needed a car soon. So I got the next best thing and just got a Manual EX. But damn I really love the K series motors :)
bruh, for the same 8 gallons, i paid 80 euros, roughly 87 dollars.... so yeah, you guys still have waaaayyyy better prices and salary that we do in Europe hahaha sick car, black on black with that wheels and that power and sound.... fucking perfect.
The question is which tein coilovers did you get? My flex z on my fa5 when turned to a stiffer dampening set up isn't bouncy at all. But when it's around half it's got a little bounce
Only my opinion but I didn't realize how much power 350whp-400whp truly is, I went down the road of way over building my honda to make 750+ yea it can and does make that power -But I drive it around at 350whp probably 95% of the time. To me it's just so much more enjoyable and is still "fast" atleast to me it is. Love your car seems like a blast to drive, I wish I had more local highways around to play on in Mexico
I would say perfect daily and easy to tune is 14-15 f30 bmw 335i just tune and bolt ons, 380-450whp depending on fuel. Still get 33-35mpg on highway, ewg n55 is also fairly reliable, FBO total cost would $1500 for bolt ons. Spend $2k on pure stage 2 turbo and you got 500-600whp. If you diy bmw is cheap to own but if you can’t, I guess civic si probably be better option. Personally can’t see myself spending $5k on s/c kit on civic then spending 3hr to take it off to pass smog. Where is 335i, just flash it to stock and can pass smog in CA even with pure stage 2 turbo because it retains factory turbo housing. But great build never the less, to each his own.
All this talk about a BMW lol I’d rather have a Honda to be honest I’ve been to the series 3 side and am glad to be rid of that fucker especially if you buy a SULEV do yourself a favor and don’t buy a SULEV you will thank me for it later lol!
@@bobsaget3044 don’t buy 4 cylinder bmw, get only inline six. Starting 2014-2018 is sweet spot for those engines. But remember cheapest bmw will be the most expensive because it will be the most neglected.
Love the car. Good thing non of my cars are registered to cali and I live in cali 😂 I can run hood exits and wastegates in my car. Also, I’m no fan of kits but I do piece mines when I boost it. If I want to supercharge, I’ll do pro charger instead
@@rojo9063 im not a CA resident and I'm active duty military. DoD employees can get away too. Or if you have family like AZ that doesnt live in phoenix or tucson you can do that. Another option is Montana llc
I love that car looks so fun to drive . Being a daily tho with a built motor like that Idk how long it would last. But its a Honda so might not affect it to much. Makes me want one tho!
Video Title: ..."PERFECT DAILY DRIVER" First minute of video: First gear just spins.....Scrape...Ahh..my car is too low. Yup, perfect daily driver alright, lol.
Had to rewatch this video after talking with a buddy about how your downshifts move the needle so quick. Lightweight flywheel is the reason for that? I’m stock and my downshifts don’t go that quick and I don’t think it’s my shifting
Bro…. “Owww” hahaha I felt that!! I know I have the D2RS Sport suspension and I’m only the R18 so not a lot of power, but I have all the suspension feels lol 😂 Jesus I felt that!!
When you were saying you don't need a built motor, can you explain? Sorry, I'm a noob. Is that not a stock k20? Was it rebuilt or swapped for a different engine?
Have you smogged yet? I already worried about going FBO and failing smog, let alone a supercharger kit. I don't even really know how the new smog rules work. You running flashpro?
u’ve built an amazing car bro, but idk what tein’s u have but i’ve ran Tein Flex Z’s on my Accord for over a year & they’re great for $950. they’re certainly not “cheaping out”.
fire build man, my favorite thing about it is that its not over the top but still fast enough and good looking enough to catch a few eyes
Damn nice honda
If you wanna see the real fire about this build look at his video from nine months ago LOL. Daily driver my ass.
Good engine, light, reliable, simple, good gas mileage even when dogging it and parts are abundant without breaking your wallet. Hondas are the Legos of cars when it comes to modification lol. Perfect project cars.
I love my fully built 10th gen si, but I miss my 8th gen smh. Awesome job.
Making me want to go pick up this stock 09 from a local used dealer. Nice build man.
Same boat here.
Do it, any 09 has the throw out bearing fixed.
@@ValkenDnB Do it! You can convert it to the JDM style too. Which looks crazy good.
Replies are making me want to do it even more. Thanks
@@dswish4042 Nice! Search for fd2 conversion on yt. Or do what I did just make a Mugen Si rep. Which looks amazing aswell.
Love your build man!! You’ve done everything I’m hoping to do to my 8th gen si. Haha I believe I went with the same coil overs you did and I’ve also regretted them so far. Wished I went with bc from the beginning
One of my fav looking and sounding civics I’ve seen. Bravo bro!
Makes me miss my FG2 Si alot I really feel the 8th Gen Si is destined to be a classic as its the last pure raw Honda. You gotta do the FD2 front and rear end swap it totally transforms the FA5 look.
Currently I have an 07 FG2 si and I was wondering what mods would you recommend putting on it. (I've had it for 9ish months)
@@maxlithium1190 do Full Bolt ons for now intake/exhaust, Hondata tune to reduce rev hang. Leave the suspension for now unless if your gonna auto-x or go track.
Totally agree. I still miss mine. Wish I would have kept it.
such a sick ass ride.
He actually made a video for use thanks bro let’s go🤙🏾🔥been waiting for this fr
Living in Cali makes owning these cars more valuable over a v8. Great build.
Bro I didn’t know you live in the Bay Area I would love a ride-along man. Great content and thank the recommendation gods
B Series guy for life but that’s a very cool build. B series stuff is getting so expensive so I’m starting to look at K series stuff.
Good video and new subscriber
"I'm just here to make some content, and enjoy my car...so I velcroed it." Love it man
DUDE YOU ARE AWESOME 👏🏻! Thank you for this detailed video! Props My Guy🤙🏻
Love to see another honda boi in california
Thiz is my favorite civic gen of all. This is the sexiest car and you can infinitely modify this thing any way you want 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 congrats!
yesssirrr you’re being constant 😄 remember me when you’re big 🙏🏼
Great taste overall in the build man. Really Well Done 👍🏻
my fav honda on youtube
Sounds great my dude! I just feel bad you live out in Cali! Place is a liberal sewer. Come out to the east coast we got plenty of builds out here!
6:59
DUDEE! I Love It 😍 IT SOUNDS JUST LIKE IN THE MOVIE 🍿 🎥 THE FAST 💨 AND FURIOUS 👀👁🦻🏻👂🏻every time you do a pull 💪🏻
wheels are probably AVID1 AV6
LOVE YOUR CIVIC BUILD🔥
Car sounds beautiful bro, keep up the good work!
If I was to build a civic you would be the inspiration for the build, I’m in love dude.. nice.. clean.. humble.
Sickkk mann keep up the hard work💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I love your build man, I dream of owning an Si. I currently drive a Manual 08 EX and I love these Civics. Keep up the good work man 👍
In 08 I wanted an 08 Si but settled for EX bcuz I couldn't drive manual. 2 weeks ago I bought an Si. Good decision. More power and fun car
@@LJ-rp3ib congrats man I really would have loved to get an SI but I didn't have the money to get one and needed a car soon. So I got the next best thing and just got a Manual EX. But damn I really love the K series motors :)
@@SuperHops always later
Built motor, new clutch / stock trans, supercharge kit, cat back about sums it up for engine? Dope
Which blow-off valve are you using ? Is it stock kraftwerks bypass valve
dude the pulls omg, it sounds so good🤌
Great video and thanks for details. Trying to decide boost gauge mount myself.
Very motivating. Build goals
Shit I'll take 370hp for a daily all day,would love to supercharge mine
400 hp civic sounds like fun
Keep it bro glad to see the civic back
I’m with you on the wheels part of it all.
easily my favorite gen of Civic, love to see one with so much love
Best CIVIC SI EVER
Such a beast! Love it!
that 53 bucks for 8 gallons broke my heart
Sick build ! Love the sound too!!!!
Best sounding civic ever 😩
I love how the blow off valve instantly closes when you press the throttle after shifting
i hate it 😂😂😂 it sounds so funny but it’s kinda cool at the same time
I love the build and love the content and love the way she sounds
Love yo build ngl i got a 8th gen n u really make me wanna go all out
Great build bro! Random thing that was hurting my ocd your front cowl is not tucking under the bumper like its supposed to xd
Pretty much exactly what I would do if I had an 8th gen SI. Unfortunately I only have a 9th gen LX.
If the 9th gen is like the 8th gen, the K20 has the same mounting points as the R18, so a K20 swap is pretty simple.
Always looking forward to a new vid 😎
It’s crazy gas that high dawg
Those wheels look like Avids
Man, it's so much hard! Nice build!
sick build bro!
bruh, for the same 8 gallons, i paid 80 euros, roughly 87 dollars.... so yeah, you guys still have waaaayyyy better prices and salary that we do in Europe hahaha
sick car, black on black with that wheels and that power and sound.... fucking perfect.
Canada is bad I'm paying over $90 a tank now for 91 Oct.
Now that right there. Is one purrrtyy daily
I'm getting an 08 5 speed tomorrow, excited to start building it little at a time
This thing sounds so mean it’s insane and I love how you go to parking garages just to be a scumbag and make the alarms go off sick build
Car looks and sounds great!
All my friends talk mad shit on civics and this is why I tell them they're wrong. Great build buddy.
Damn when i can save enough money il make my civic decent also like yours. Damn thats a very good looking car.

I love your car bru, nice
Best civic si ever 💤💤💯
Sounds like a dream on pull.
such a nice ride. nice as fuck yet humble
You're making me want a civic
Looks pretty fun
Omg the gas price
Falling in reverse not a vampire
Wicked sounding rig! What ya got for pistons and rods?
im pushing 400whp on an ebay turbo with stock everything and stage1 clutch. these cars can handle a lot more than people think
Stock fuel pump injectors too? Literally just an eBay turbo and tune that's it ?
I ask because I was thinking of doing a basic eBay turbo with a tune and push it
@@vincentwelshman8435 no you will need a upgraded fuel pump and injectors. No need for fuel return tho
@@vincentwelshman8435 also dont be fooled by the internet. turboing a naturally aspirated car is NOT easy by any means regardless of what car it is

it’s sounds pretty good

Great build bro exactly what i am looking to do.
omggg that thing looks like so much fun

6$ for gas is crazy!

Hey man, I have a 2010 civic 1.8L
And I was wondering what I can do to make it faster, most videos on UA-cam are about the si
Nice build
Sweet ride
u’ve built an amazing car bro, but idk what tein’s u have but i’ve ran Tein Flex Z’s on my Accord for over a year & they’re great for $950. they’re certainly not “cheaping out”.
Very nice!
Awesome build but idk about the rep wheels dawg lol how much them joints weight?
yoo hella late but what tint do you have?? 5, 15? 20? ceramic dyed just curious
