My Mustang could NEVER handle turns like that. Getting on power MID TURN?! No way. I'd be in the ditch. Surprised there's no understeer when you mash the gas either, and those scenes in the rain are incredible! Lots of grip given the conditions. Go Honda!
@@noahbolt we all do lol. But it seems to me that you’re probably entering the turn too fast, your car has a huge advantage on exit speed if you find the grip early in the turn by going in slower
Dude im a little dumbfounded that he hasnt already got it i mean its the best thing you can get How does he live with rev hang and that dog ass stock tune like daaamn... no offense but HOW 🤣
@@repingers9777 I drove my first SI stock for like 2 years and thought it was still great, but on the one I have now I did full bolt on and a tune all at once, couldn't believe what I was missing.
@mrecco9805 like to watch the content, but an FD2 and a converted SI to look like an FD2 is not the same. kind of misleading to people. t The FD2 TYPE R is on a hole different level engine wise , suspension wise , make up of the chassis and body slightly different
FD2R engages at 5600rpm. Stock I rebuilt the motor with BC stage 3 cams and my mechanic started it at 6200rpm. I changed it later to 5500. In my opinion don’t need to go any lower.
Glad to see your car back up and running strong. I am also located in CA, not far from the bay. Hopefully I will get to meet you guys soon. I also have a FBO Tuned Civic Si.
Love the channel , found it like a week ago , binge watched some videos and as I kind of lost interest in the car scene a little while ago , I feel the early stages of getting into it again watching your videos lol I have a shitty 7th gen (not really shitty just fixing a lot of issues past owners caused) and would wanna have fun just like you guys keep the good content up guys
Nice the new wheels look great and if you don’t mind where did you get the cluster and speedo from I notice you have the RR shifter light where temp use to be ! Thanks love the build bro
NGL unless you're tracking this car with a harness and helmet I would put the OEM steering wheel back on. You'll never regret having that airbag when something goes wrong.
That's actually bad that you are that close to the calipers. When you're actually are on track the calipers tend to expand with massive amounts of heat which will then cause you to rub against the spokes of your wheels.
Hey I have a big question, I got the cluster from Eric jenson and heard that you disabled vsa does that mean you have no traction control permanently??
But FD2 is chasis code for Civic Type R 8th generation which was made for Japanese market. Don't turn people into mistake, you don't even have interior from CTR FD2. well yeah.
@@Seikers ok i checked your uploades, alright so don't say you have got FD2. you really uploaded film with title HOW TO INSTALL FD2 TYPE R SIDE SKIRTS ON FA5. Yeah dude soooo i'm driving an EK9 now
@@b1g_8oi5 i said the car is a conversion.. i’m not trying to fool anyone and fake that this is a Type R 💀 the mods that i’ve done to the car are OEM on the exterior which is an FD2 but the car originally is an FA5. I never said i changed the interior from an FD2 to an Fa5 so you’re confused. What i’m asking you is, if the car looks like an FD2 and i title the video it’s an FA5 there would be eyebrows raised as well, correct?? so there’s no way around the matter 🤦♂️
if it's strictly a daily driver, its probably best to leave it alone just cause of emissions sake. But if you live in an area where you don't need to smog, go for it!
Honestly the blue wheels ruined the look of the car because the car is already blue, too much of the same color is never a good thing and it ruins the aesthetics. A bronze color would definitely stand out more.
@@ky7037 They seem to overestimate their importance if thats the case. What are the chances that cops would even watch this? Let alone lauch investigation?

It definitely can! Mustangs can fit some real chunky tyres. Getting a proper set along with performance coilovers would improve handling significantly
Yeah, you just need to learn how to drive.
@@nezabytes You’re right silly me, I’ll just learn how to drive.
@@noahbolt we all do lol. But it seems to me that you’re probably entering the turn too fast, your car has a huge advantage on exit speed if you find the grip early in the turn by going in slower
Because the car makes 200 wheel horsepower maybe. If he was making 350 horsepower then yeah he could never turn and add power mid turn.
idk about blue on blue, i think that gray looked a LOT better. but the wheel style is killer.
I recommend disabling throttle dampening. I did on mine and it feels more like a drive by cable, makes it feel sharper and more responsive.
I’m guessing you can do that through hondata?
@@sethblake4955 yes
Blue wheels ruined tf out of this car
If the body paints are white, it would fit better I guess
Everyone with a Hondata says they make a huge difference but no one believes it until they pick one up lol, first mod on every Honda easy.
Dude im a little dumbfounded that he hasnt already got it i mean its the best thing you can get How does he live with rev hang and that dog ass stock tune like daaamn... no offense but HOW 🤣
Also the throttle response and whole engine is just uncapped no more restrictions its such a dramatic difference its absolutely unreal

@@repingers9777 we had the hondata for over a year. Just never really got around to doing it.
@@Seikers oh nah u crazy 🤣 also y'all better get it on the Dyno or etuned bc the base maps knock alot 🫣😳
Nice to see the Fd2 again. Keep up the good content. Those wheels in silver will looked awesome.
FD2 ?? where??
I'm from Russia, and I know that is Civic SI 😅

Ice white would be so sick

Man that thing sounds awesome, cant wait to pick up an 8th gen si
That FD2 is quick!!

RE30s in a silver or grey. Brakes in that orange colour you were talking about 👌
Damn bro u look big 🗿
Have a friend who sold his 626hp Mugen civic. It was running a "gt35r full race " kit. Full built. That was a fun car . Scary car
pacing of the video is great!
Need a jacob Benz foot cam 😫😋
hondata made a world of difference on my fg2, even back when I was bone stock
where do you get a hondata?
@@relax6174 you can probably order it somewhere online, I got mine from a local Honda/Acura aftermarket parts place
Basemap definitely wakes it up but a custom tune is a night and day difference 🤙🏽
vouch!!
Loving the outside footage. GT Channel vibes for sure
best converted fd2 channel on yt
Hey man nice run! I’m wondering what tune you threw on it? I have the same mods as you. Is it just a hondata base map?
Flashpro just wakes the car up tbh

Just found this chanal bro got a corolla 21 but love seeing other builds this honda crazy 🔥good content keep up
That’s an FA5 not FD2
Legit 😂
Isn't Chris the same guy who sold Sonny from illiminate that S13 a while ago?
he is in fact the previous owner of Sonny's 240 😎
2:06💀💀💀💀💀
Youre gonna need to trim your fender liner to get rid of that rub probably lol
A reverse staggered setup will allow for more turn in and help the car rotate much better.
The car has a reverse staggered set up already!
The hands off the wheel at 7:20 got me fkn stressing
What’s the wheel and tire specs on the RE30s?
7:01 that miata almost smoked you. DONT CROSS THE MUSTARD
i noticed jacob flashed his high beams bc DAMN HE DID ALMOST CLIPPED THE FD2 LIKE WTF
your videos always make me smile man :))
another fire vid
Nice sound
burnt orange break would look sick
Really loves the sound of VTEC
Sounds awesome! Seems like you need to raise it a tad and add some more dampening to keep from rubbing n bouncin… looks like a ton of fun tho!!
the RE30 fit the fitment so well 👌👌👌
I miss my 08 Si
LOVE THESE VIDEOS!
Love d car MN
Burnt orange would look clean af
Man if the integra didn't have the kit it will be soon nice and the itr is my dream car
if you ever set up a foot cam you gotta make a bare foot touge run for the OF
That's actually bad that you are that close to the calipers. When you're actually are on track the calipers tend to expand with massive amounts of heat which will then cause you to rub against the spokes of your wheels.
my boy where do you live i need them touge runs in my life
Nice color combo
Lime green
Looking good 👍
Off topic question but what rear view mirror is that I love it
Pink brembo’s would pop against the blue
Dope vid, where did you buy that hanging earring?
Lowering the VTEC engagement sounds cool but it’s still torqueless until 6-7k RPM lol
looks sick as fuck. maybe bronze re30s would go harder imo
Tuned in for an FD2 but it’s LHD. 😭
Does that wide interior mirror go over your original mirror? Can you send me a link?
Looks dope!
How many mods do you think I should have before i start trying to go to a track
No more rev hang 🎉
burnt orange all da way 💯 missed the fd2 btw, would love to see a shirt with the fd on it
also is this a base map or etuned?
id imagine a base map default from hondata themselves
Hey I have a big question, I got the cluster from Eric jenson and heard that you disabled vsa does that mean you have no traction control permanently??
but seriously car looks jdm. nice job
Cars is nice you need to sort out the suspension tho
yellow brakes look good on blue cars
what is the name of the blue wheel plz ?
That things impressive
wheels should not be the same color as the car.
But FD2 is chasis code for Civic Type R 8th generation which was made for Japanese market. Don't turn people into mistake, you don't even have interior from CTR FD2. well yeah.
sooo my exterior of my car is OEM FD2 panels, but my interior is Si... it's a conversion. So what do you propose the title to be genius? Use your head
@@Seikers still. i won't think that's fd2, nobody would change type r interior for a worse one, seriously something isn't right there

what engine u use bro k24?
wish i can build my dream car soon. Would rather have that than my 2016 altima. lol
What engine does ur fd2 have
Where did you get your ecu tuned with flash pro?
Did you get it tuned by a shop or just base map all the way?
Nice, How many miles in the engine?
Civic si?
I've seen too much bad shit happen in the rain with less, no thanks.
please more povs
Would you guys recommend tuning a daily driver? I have a FK7 and have thinking about tuning it
if it's strictly a daily driver, its probably best to leave it alone just cause of emissions sake. But if you live in an area where you don't need to smog, go for it!
underrated channel!!
Is this a civic Si or CTR?
Does your civic have an LSD?
bruhhh why do i see great value thsuchi's everywhere?💀
when im like, hitting like vtech, im like falling out of vtech. Like the stock vtech engagement is like 5500rpms, and thats like not like cool.

lift the car up before its too late , I made the mistake and I don't want you to make the same mistake
If u sell the TLS brembos I’d take ‘em off your hands
Ripping VTEC in the fa5*

What shift knob are you running on the fd2?
Advan look better ngl
wheels are shit mate
2nd honda video I'm going to have to skip due to guys with gay earings. Are Hondas the gay vehical these days or something??
Those blue wheels are ugly, the 5star ones before are way way better looking. Plus that blue looks wrong with the blue of the car
