Measure twice, cut once! There's a lot of time spent off camera making sure we know exactly where to trim or cut 😅 Thank you for the kind words, we appreciate it!
As the lucky guy who's car this is, i can confirm it sounds absolutely lovely when opened up, lots of character and loud without being obnoxious. Also a bonus that when closed and driven calmly, it's only a fraction louder than stock (useful for the commute to the office!)
@@michaelhaller6045 I’m really thankful for your answer and feedback, that’s exactly what I’m looking for 👍🏻 Nice exhaust sound when opened, and quiet when closed. I have a friend with the complete Remus exhaust + 200cell milltek, that’s way too much 😅 Can’t wait to try the HJS on my fk8. Thanks ! 😃👍🏻
Fun fact, i flew a full Turbo back Cobra exhaust, Dream intercooler, front and rear disks and induction kit including inlet pipe as hold luggage on a BA flight.
Man he forgot to build engine to closed deck for 10k and spend 10k for useless stuff. If i replace my fk8 than just for an m2 competition or mecedes GLS amg, bmw x5 450D, becouse 500hp and 7 seats
I’ve actually come to despise the FL5 purely because they’ve become a flipping car. There were several on a well known vehicle selling site recently with a few hundred miles on them with multiple owners. One had three owners and was sub 1k in miles and was going for over 55 grand. FK8 all day long for me, I’m not prepared to be ripped off purely because the FL5 maybe the last manual petrol Type R that Honda are going to produce.
It does. I was also told by my dealer before they were released to not bother putting down a deposit as allocations will be going to people who were using PCP. My hard earned cash wasn’t good enough. It’s a shame that such a nice car was taken out of reach of true car enthusiasts. I’m so glad I purchased the FK8 when I did.
I agree bro. Completely gave up on the Fl5. But slightly considering the Type S. It's a phenomenal drive but won't pay a dollar over Msrp with interest rates at minimum 7% even with amazing credit. But also happy to keep my 17" FK8 with 21,000 miles.
Been waiting for this video for some time and it's well worth the wait!
I'm definitely looking forward to the next parts of this series.^^
Cannot beat the fk2 or fk8, seating/interior, handling, unique looks.
Yes you can… with an FL5 😂
Always been impressed with your trimming and cutting always make it look factory. Definitely not an easy task!! Top work Phil 👍👍

Liked and subscribed, can’t wait to see part 2! Great camera work and explanations throughout.
Thanks for the kind words, we appreciate that! 🙌 We look forward to bringing you Part 2 soon
Love this. Make me want to spend all my money on fk8 parts.
You're telling us you didn't already want to spend your money on FK8 parts!? 😯😆 We're glad you enjoyed watching!
its good to see that u cleaned the exhaust after fitting as some wouldnt clean it
We're sure to remove all marks and fingerprints from the pipework otherwise it becomes A LOT harder to get them off after a few heat cycles!
The seibon bonnet looks awesome but I'm dismayed at how little those extra vents seem to go straight through into the engine bay.
Luckily there is scope to open them up a little like we did!
keep your work

great vid. what about an oil cooler?
It's not on the current to-do list however we imagine the customer will definitely look to have on fitted after a few track days.
I love your fk8 content, please keep it coming sir! 💯💯💯
Plenty more on the way 💪
The Dream would be to have this done to my FK8 but Dad life must come first
great content, any way to list the parts you upgraded?
FK8 is irreplaceable 🙂 do you recommend hood pins be used?
We used QuikLatch pins. We'll be listing them on our site soon, we like them a lot!
Was hoping to hear some fl5 eventuri news????
Not far off at all now, we've got some numbers to talk about 👀

It is a shame as the car is amazing. The flipping that is happening makes it almost unobtainable!
