Is a FBO Civic Actually Capable at the TRACK? // LET'S FIND OUT!!

- After putting down a respectable 213WHP from my K24 when I went to visit @TuningByNick, it was time to see how that power translates into lap times at TMP. People usually upgrade power first, and you’ll see why it might not be the best idea…
This obviously means it is time to upgrade the weak points of the Civic before we bring it back.

You guys pulled through on IG, so as promised, here's the early video!! I hope you guys enjoy your weekend.
I'm guessing you ended up selling your 8th gen accord. I was following that close along with the 8thgen family.
Can you put your wrist over the top of steering wheel with elbow slightly bent? Your arm is Max straight and you push the wheel with shoulder. Į think you Seat too far away. Your shoulder goes up and away from seat, which tires you. So much potential can be gained by proper seating. I drive beater cars on dirt circuit and after a few laps track gets bumpy and it is so good to stay in place(and in control) while jumping around.
Push Your hips as much as possible back into the corner of Seat. After buckling seatbelt, pull on it to press you even more on the seat. Then let it pull back into it's place and yank it quick to lock Your seatbelt. And push Your seat few clicks forward, till you cant move. The best budget 'bucketseat'
Keep it coming man like these 9th gen videos 💯
Hell yeah brother! They're coming 😁
Yessss
In case anyone is interested. A bone stock, untouched 9th gen civic only with brake pads and tyre (mildly sticky 240TW) upgrade is capable of running 1:27 at this track with a bad driver (i.e. myself) behind the wheel. And the laptime I clocked was before TMP was repaved so it may be slightly faster now. After cheap suspension mods and alignment (spent less than 2k CAD) it can do 1:23 on very sticky 200TW tyres. The lesson here is that if you're modding your 9th gen (or any car really) to shave laptime, spend it on the chassis, not on power.
Very good advice! Power is not always the first upgrade. Suspension and handling 9 times out of 10 will be better
Great vid I just got a 15 si coupe about 3 months ago and your vids have helped me with my doing all my mods. Keep it up!!
I'm happy to hear that brother! Congrats on the new whip 🙌
Definitely should do more kind of these track vids!
Thanks for the feedback Tyler!
I'm a simple man i see 9th gen si content i click
Good content with the 9thgen, keep it going...
Thanks man! I appreciate it!
Awesome build, good content. 🍻
Thanks Dubz! 👊
Damn this thing is making good consistent power… sounds so healthy 🤤
This video will be so much better with a camera pointing forward so we can better see your driving
Bro u are an I inspiration ... One day I hope I can fix up my civic
Thanks Ricky! You got this 👊
Great vid, as always. Maybe look into a bigger/thicker RSB to go with your coils.
Will you keep it NA or are you looking to boost in the future?
Thanks Eddie! I think that's a good call. I might try different coilovers right out the box and see how they do, and then upgrade sway bars if needed. We'll see lol
I plan on keeping it N/A, but jumping up the power from the current 213 to about 300. Should be interesting to say the least!
underrated channel.
Share it!!
Sounds so good
Nice video brother 👍👍👍
Thanks Johnny!!
Hey bro love your videos quick question tho . How did you get the digital climate control? I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find anything on the swap or anything
Great video as always! How much does it cost in there to drive your car? Is that called a "track day"?
Thanks brother! Depending on how long you go for, it is usually about $120 for a 4-5 hour session. It is called open-lapping 👍
Love the car and mods. Onto brakes, tl-s brembos? Love how "Chris fix" the videos are, keep it up!
Thanks Brandon! I think some nice TL-S Brembo's would be perfect for this car.
are you still doing the k20 head ? i’m in the process of doing it to my 9th gen si also
Do a brembo brake tsx conversion 🙏 those would do you well
The fluid and pads change will be your savior
I have RBF660 fluid in the car now, but the stock pads is what is the current weak point.
How do you replace a transmission solenoid? On a vw gti 05
Still awaiting those Mini track videos promised years ago! 😆
I have some content for ya!
The 9th gen has a heavy rear end so it tends to swing a little.
Can you add couple of cameras one front and in the back so we can feel the speed :-)
That's a good idea! Note to self for future videos 👍 I usually do, however I wasn't prepared for this track day.
Would like to see video of the track driving
I will be sure to create more! Especially when I perform more upgrades to the Civic.
@milanmastracci that throttle body adapter that u bought for the ZDX does it work for
The factory r40 or is there a different one ?
Hey Randy, do you mean does it work with the factory manifold? If so, no I don't think it does. You would need a different one.
Very nice car
Thanks brother!
If you end up changing the injectors and fuel rail all of us would love a DYI on it especially on that acuity rail if you decide that route. Sounds bitchin
Don't knock me, trust I am certainly not a hater. Been probably one of your oldest subs. But at 5:57 your left arm is completely straight, which would lead me to believe that your shoulders aren't really pinned into the seat whilst turning, which would then mean you would be sliding around. I have a 9th too, and I'm about the same body type as you, but I find these seats to be almost perfect.
Dang I want a civic now but I already have a genesis and a Mustang I’m gonna end up like you Milan with to many cars 😂😂
LMAO it's a fun problem to have.. until you want to mod them all ahah
Bro i have a 15 civic si sedan low on eibach sportline lowering springs wit truhart sport shocks...stock rims are 18x7.5 +47 offset and i have aftermarket rims are same specs but offset is +45...my question is wat other rims specs tat i can run wit out doing and fenders work n camber...thanks in advance👍👍👍
There are tons of options. So it depends if you want to run 17s or 18s, but you can go up another inch in width, given you get the proper offset.
@@milanmastracci thanks but the problem is tat i found rims i like but the offset is too much for me unless i have to do fenders
I'm running 18×9 +38 225/45/18 on my 15 Si and the fitment is beautiful if you ask me.
@@danieldavid9598 are u on lowering springs n do u have to do any fenders
@@danieldavid9598I'm on eibach sportline lowering springs with truhart sport shocks running on 18x7.5 +45 offset somehow the front is more lower than tha back it scrub a little...i was thinking trying 18x8.5 +35 offset not sure gonna scrub more in the front...wat u think thanks in advance
Planning on doing a iTunes or equivalent slave and master upgrade?
iTunes?
@@milanmastracci auto correct. Ktuned.
No worries lol I will be upgrading the slave for sure, but not with what you would expect! 👍
@@milanmastracci delay valve delete?
What type of drop springs are you using
Skunk2's. I wouldn't recommend them as they are a bit too aggressive IMO.
Buddy are you selling your civic, I've seen one on auto-trader, looks identical to yours ? 🤔
LOL I saw that too! No that isn't my car thankfully. I messaged the person selling it and said GLWS. Got talking for a bit about them ahah
🙏🙏🙏
Where is the helmet?
I’m surprised that they let people out on track without a helmet. That’s very dangerous IMO
I forgot if you mentioned in a previous video but do you have any plans of turbo or supercharging in the future?
I plan on building my engine for a high compression N/A swap. Should give me nearly 100 WHP over FBO.
The stock brakes are absolutely garbage. I can get brand new pads and they will fade at traffic lights smh. Types s brembo upgrade is a must on these cars
Yeah that seems the be the route I'm leaning towards. I'm happy to hear a bunch of 9th gen owners have had good success with those brakes.
nice video but the tenth gen si is a natural better handler due to suspension set up and turbo
Is it that Civic with k24z7?
It is indeed!
@@milanmastracci so cant w8 too see some mods got k24z3 its almost same engine;) as I know this engine love some boost 😜
Mastracci action figures! Make them
using your shins to keep u in place LMAO
Good seats 🥲
A stock civic non si is capable of a track car behind a good driver. FBO is just a waste of money might as well train on Sims before track
Another reason why I don't encourage people to upgrade power first!
What’s with ontarians and their obsession with those number plate tint covers, every 8/10 ontarian car I see has those on
No one likes a naked plate, looks cheap and they are cheap, Ontario plates delaminate quickly.
@@revvolutions This!
Earliest I’ve ever bein lol

Get closer to the seat, grandma style.
But gangster lean 😜
Your intake is loud as shit
Can hear it sucking in air
