- Keeping the Civic refresh moving, in this episode i've swapped out the old aftermarket exhaust for standard, installed a panel filter, fitted Tegiwa spacers (15mm front, 20mm rear) and tried out some really easy rust protection.

Spacers are Tegiwa 15mm front and 20mm rear. Car is on Tien lowering springs too👍
The 2 type rs i drove i felt bit of a hooligan if im honest but loved every minute of it ❤
BMW boy loving this FN2 wow
Fab tweaks. Keep up the good work 💪
Great job.
The most common rust point on these is above the front windscreen as they didnt seal them properly
as a person who used to have a Cheery Bomb on his MK2 golf, I get the point of a little too much noise :)
I had a twin pipe upswept DTM on my MK2, would love another MK2 now :)
Only just found your channel (I'm a fellow Red FN2 owner), and I've already watched half a dozen of your videos. Out of Interest what size spacers did you end up fitting as it's not mentioned in the video. It looks like you've got two different sizes, so I'd be interested in what you've fitted front and rear. Keep up the great work, you've earned yourself another Subscriber 🙂
Hey thanks man, really appreciate it! Nice to hear from a fellow FN2 owner. The spacers are Tegiwa 15mm front and 20mm rear. Really nice quality too 👌
Hi mate, thanks for putting this video together. What is the tool that you start using at 12:52 to start removing the rust?
It's a dremel tool with the cable extension on and the ire-brush attachment. Gets in all the nooks and crannies.
Lanoguard is fab.
Really impressive stuff, still doing the job 3 months in keeping most of the salt and grime out.
Being ocd and a mechanical engineer by trade the gaps on the panels ! Breeding ground for rust 😢
Very true, although they were even worse on the X5 😬
Great video, i need to finish under sealing my fn2, was that a dremel you were using to remove the rust?
Yes a multi-tool with wire brush, not brilliant for the bit areas but good for the smaller bits.
I see this rust issue in england is it because of the weather? Does this happen for all cars?
Main reason it that it seemingly rains all the time here but also the local authorities spray the roads with salt/grit during winter to help stop the roads freezing. This stuff is really bad for cars.
Hi. I have a 2011 FN2 GT. Honda keep reminding me i need new exhaust heat shields on each of the last two services although i have no rattling. Have you experienced any issues seeing that you swapped your exhaust system?
I've not had any obvious issues with the heat-shield although they're in pretty ropey condition on mine. Perhaps that's what they mean.
@GeesDrive cheers. I'd like to put a cat back stainless system on mine in the future but think I'll replace the heat shields first then. Great to see a fellow FN2 enthusiast channel. 👍
My OEM exhast needs replacing and so I've ordered the Scorpion resonated twin exit system. I wanted something quiet and as close to OEM as possible. Could be a good option for you in the future.
That's a great shout as OEM exhausts are getting hard to come by. Thanks for the recommendation 👍
@@GeesDrive I looked on Cox Motor Parts for a full OEM system but some of the parts are on back order and/or unavailable. The Scorpion system seems like a good compromise... Will find out when I get it fitted next week. 👌🏻
Just picked up a 2008 FN2 and has a scorpion exhaust. Sounds similar to this 🙈
@@deanmarsden3360Oh no, too loud?
Hi mate I'm interested to know also what size spacers you have front and rear as looking to do the same good videos keep up the good work 👍
Thanks! Appreciate the nice comment. The spacers are Tegiwa 15mm front and 20mm rear. Really nice quality 👌
@@GeesDrive brilliant they are the ones I've been looking at so thanks much appreciated 😀
have you used grease everywhere or just what shown on video?
I just used the moto grease on the more vulnerable areas like bolt heads. The rest just got a spray over. The grease is basically more heavy duty protection 👍
If you want to keep those engines alive and well stay away from K&N filters except you are going for a track day. Cheers
The sound increase is minimal to be honest so I put the original back in 👍
Kapiram da K&N filter donekle slabije filtrira od običnog filtera, ali je l' toliko veliki rizik baš? Mislim vidim da ljudi često stavljaju svakakve aftermarket filtere, tipa Tegiwa, HKS, itd...
@@ned-yt Nije rizik na kraće staze ali na duže se taj filter suši i fina prašina prolazi koja na kraju deluje na zidove cilindra kao abrazivno sredstvo i onda kreću problemi. Za stazu je ok da motor može da diše bolje ali za svakodnevnicu ja ne bih stavljao. Ima nekih koji kažu da nisu imali problema, ali verovatno su menjali ulje na svakih 3000km.
@@The_Touring_Jedi Hvala na informaciji! :)
What about HKS intake?
Are you selling the exhaust you took off?
Sorry mate, it's already sold. It's a really nice exhaust, I would recommend it, just not for me with daily activities 👍
I don't claim to be a motor technician but i dont feel comfortable when i see exposed philps head screws in a side skirt
