Hi Jonas, awesome setup. would like to ask you about the front bumper; it looks like INGS yet the edges/corners are filled out and it doesnt have that gaudy lip. Is it a custom piece?
His steering inputs are intentionally slow (in rotation) BUT with dialed in accuracy, never turning in too much and having to constantly correct (Like I have seen so many times in other racing videos). No abrupt maneuvers ever. This guy is a proper demonstration of what confidence and experience put together, looks like. AWESOME... Oh, and I LOVE the car.
@@ZDEVIL74 Nah, not really, it depends. It's not a "fAcT" lol, this car is much more fun to drive than something like the old Charger, which is FR and a straight line only boat.
John Nitrous it's probably a fully built up race car based on a FD. I too thought it was a coupe at first but later saw the rear door handles from the close ups. The JDM FD2 Type R's only come in the 4 door sedan. This is a fully built race engine and maybe does not even have VTEC cams; definitely no VTC. But it runs really sweet!
How those tyres are putting the power down and taking those corners is just phenomenal. Total tyre contact patch is less than four pieces of A4 paper and look at the results..... Incredible.
I always believed in hp is just numbers , and here's a concrete proof to it. So much power and accelerations in each gear and yet, such stability and nimbleness at such speed
I watched the vid before reading the comments. My first thought was, that is a well sorted and well driven car. Seems others agree. My slightly modded "08 SI and owner thank you.
come to malaysia bro theres a lot of fd2r here and im quite bored watching it everyday. the only country that received fd2r was malaysia and the country itself japan
Such an excellent chassis for the K20, no wonder the FD2R was the fastest type R until the turbo model came out. Sadly it was sold in Japan and Malaysia only.
How the fuck does so much power get squeezed out of a naturally aspirated four banger? Honda makes some seriously stout engines, it's gnarly. My WRX stock made 265 CRANK hp, not to the wheels. She's now dialed in at 320 but holy fucking shit I have to respect Hondas
@@jonasmagnin I'm new to cars and i have a question i have a civic which comes with macpherson struts so can i modify the car like urs? Or i need double wishbone?
Thanks for the video!
Hi Jonas, awesome setup. would like to ask you about the front bumper; it looks like INGS yet the edges/corners are filled out and it doesnt have that gaudy lip. Is it a custom piece?
Thanks :-) Yes, it's a custom carbon bumper that has been developed in a wind tunnel.
i am very keen on purchasing one. i will contact Rikli to see if it's possible... thank you
Fd2 civic typeR is the best TypeR !!!!
@@jonasmagnin incroyable auto ! Bravo
Im most impressed with how stable the car is. suspension setup is the hero here
that has nothing to do with stability in the corners bro (in this case)
I'm guessing they are KW coils, based on the huge sticker on the back haha
Yea no body roll. Its well planted. Its like no lateral G's acting on it
Less body roll is achieved with thicker sway-bars, not just harder springs and shocks
@@priztucker sway bars are considered part of suspension set

High RPM, light and nimble. That's how you make a fun car.
Just need a fr for make it perfect.
@@ZDEVIL74 Not necessarily, FWD is also cool. You get less oversteer without all the weight of AWD.
Yes, and if you think hard about it, FWD cars with more weight on the rear (like this FD) are much more stable
I talked about to make a perfect fun car.😉 Fr car are funnier to drive than ff car. That's a fact.

Hi, I'm from Japan! fd2 is still one of the most popular cars.
And Japonic's blue r34 Skyline :p
Its fd6 not 2
@@mercow1242 how is it an FD6? Looks like an FD2 to me.
Edit: Title even says FD2
@@mercow1242 fd6 lol no its a fd2 for sure
まあ少なくともクルマ好きの間ではね
Now that is what a Honda is. That thing is dialed in
The mighty Civic Type R born to do its purpose.
I don't think it's a Type R. Usually would have said Type R in the title, right?
Roger J or FD2R
Roger J Its so custom, that it doesn't matter what it was stock. But the Type R has a K20 too, so it most likely was a type R.
well I need to correct you, Civic Type R (FD2/FN2, 2007-2010) the fd2 (JDM) was the counterpart to the fn2 (EDM)

285 hp doesn’t sound like much but hot DAMN that thing is RAPID
lightness my boye
Got less then 240 in mine and you need 400whp to stand a chance
Also, power to weight and the sequential setup made it even better
It weighs like 900 kg, so it’s pretty quick
You dont need 400hp to race on a small road like this. 285hp is fast enough
How those tyres are putting the power down and taking those corners is just phenomenal. Total tyre contact patch is less than four pieces of A4 paper and look at the results..... Incredible.
The performance of the suspension and the tires is really amazing!
That engine sounds so happy at high revs.
Driver has Ballz of steel...

You misquoted. Its slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

I like fd2 more than the latest civic...
NA forever 🙌
@Chrome yes sir
@@AmirFauzi666 NA and turbo both were awesome..
as long its jdm 😂😂
@@Maddoxxx but the newer ones like fk2 and fk8 are actually just bad. Also you can barely hear the sound that they make. The turbo ruins the real vtec
Engineers: How much rpm do you want?
Driver: Yes
All of it
More than you can purpose
@lscansir cured 8400 before valve float. But if you spend a bit you can upgrade valvetrain and oil pump 9k all day.
come to malaysia bro theres a lot of fd2r here and im quite bored watching it everyday. the only country that received fd2r was malaysia and the country itself japan
That things built for the turns. Excellent 👌🏻
Honda forever😍😍😍
Amazing speed for FWD! Great high speed onboard and from outside captures
I love V-TEC sound!
Like someone said, what vtec? 😆

No wonder I've seen so many malaysian street racing vids with FD2Rs.
Sometimes V- Tec sounds like angry bee and I love that 😁
What vtec?

No V-tec using here
It's not a vtec,it's a k20

Fd2 is the real Honda DNA

It dosent matter what type r it is. Type r is type r and vtec is vtec.

Sounds so much better than the new fk8!! 😍😍
What a skillful driver and a badass Honda
Omg. I love that FF monster.

Dude has crazy good skill and a crazy good car, +respect.
On Rails. Don't tell me FWD can't kick some serious ass in the handling department and who better than Honda!
volvo fwd's are also pretty cool, but yeah honda for the win
I'm more impressed with how planted it cornering is at those speeds. Fair play my duded
High revving racecar.....I love it.

Best fwd chassis ever made.
That thing is just attached to the road! 😍👍🔥🔥
I was saying...it's gripping like it's an awd car...wth
This FD2 looks and sounds amazing.
This is currently my favourite video on youtube lol
Greatest civic ever.
Great driving! Man this car’s handling! It’s like it’s on rails!! What suspension are you using? Thanks
Thanks :-) I'm using KW 3-way suspensions
@@jonasmagnin I'm new to cars and i have a question i have a civic which comes with macpherson struts so can i modify the car like urs? Or i need double wishbone?
@@jonasmagnin the kw 3 way suspension is compatible with macpherson strut?
Even a regular 1.8 civic fd MT is fun to drive.
This is just like me when im all out of coffee and have to get to the store before it closes
Man that driver knows what he is doing.
Honda better keep pumping these guys out. 4 popper done right.
Man this cars are legend.. i miss my fa5😭😭
Wow perfect balance... Handle very well....
Front right tire rubbing?
You're right. The car was a litte bit to low and the tire was rubbing the bumper. It's corrected :-)

Really impressive civic! What tire and wheel combo are you running?

Is there a website for more info on this particular car? The aero package is gorgeous
That k sounds amazing
What a beautiful track.
Wow...beautiful!

Everything perfect 👌
FD2, the best civic type r
I'm seeing this car all over my hometown right now.
I like this sound!
Speedgasme…driving the FD2 is a lot better than sex.
I feel sorry for you, if you really believe that.
Thing is nasty! Inspiration for my USDM FA5 Civic Si Mugen, haha.
Love to see sequential gearbox in FD2
That’s a nice car! Beast!
Best civic ever made
Damn d driver skills is impressive
Thanks for the video, man. Appreciate that. What's your set up on the Civic??
Trunk lid is sick
Custom?
306 maxi vibes, nice car
My dream car
He sentido pánico en las imágenes On board, la primera parte del trazado es muy muy rápida. Una locura la combinación máquina/piloto
Omg! I love the bodykit what brand is it?
What a beauty. ❤
2:10 DANGER TO MANIFOLD!!!!
Nice car, what type of exhaust system and muffler does it used? :)
That's how fast I drive home after having a couple of sketchy tacos to use the toilet.
Sensational!
ホンダの4発の排気サウンドは最高じゃのぅ。
People don’t understand how fast 280whp is in a car this light. Things probably reliable as heck too.
Amazing (NA High rev) Sound and Traction
Is this car converted to left hand drive or did they make FD2s in this configuration? or is it an american SI?
NA engine 285hp .. amazing
This thing is illlll!
This is the HONDA Music.
Great !
เสียงมันสุดยอดมากครับ
What a mtf pilot 😱😱😱
What was the time he did in Ursanne ?
Do they also change the engine?
I think it's a k20 swap
that sound high AT engine love !

So stable.
Its sequental gearbox??
Nice a realistic build
