    01:00 Series Intro
    01:42 Main Episode Start (Honda S800)
    04:05 Getting in the FK7
    06:33 Hanging out at the combini
    08:45 Test Driving the FK7 on the C1
    11:29 Studio Closing Segment
    In this episode, Spoon entrusted me with their FK7 Civic demo car while I was having my new transmission installed, so I did what I'm sure any of you guys would do immediately. I sent it on the C1 Expressway under the premise that I was making a review video hehe.
    In all seriousness, super huge thanks to Spoon for letting me take out their FK7. It's an awesome car that approaches the performance of the FK8 Type R for less money, and a lot more scene points.

    I owned a 10th gen Si before my FK8. Both tuned. Stepping from the 1.5 in the FK7/FC2/3 to the 2.0 in the FK8 is an insane difference. The suspension setup in the R is crazy too, I'm sure a Spoon setup FK8 would be absolutely incredible.

    I totally get your first impression! On one of my early test drives, I noted the same issue as you where the hood/bonnet sides were blocking my view. Like two mountain ridges or brow lines. Now with the stock seat pumped high enough, it’s perfectly comfortable and a non-issue, both visually and for driving

      @Jakupdoesnt 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I just got my spoon turbo. And overall I haven’t installed it but I heard that you can get the same exact turbo from MHI. Apparently MHI makes the turbo and spoon just puts the “spoon” badge on it. I got the turbo for a little bit cheaper since a friend sent it from Japan and I just zelle him money but even tho I got it cheaper from him in Japan it’s $1900 buying it from MHI themselves. Regardless I’m just happy to have a bigger turbo.
      Incase anyone was wondering my friend got it for me for $2500 not including shipping, and to buy it in America it’s $3085.

      @@1Neoblast1 I never put it on. I have it in my closet and its sat in my closet for over a year now. I did however upgrade other things like clutch (since the stock clutch couldn't handle power after i tuned it) Koyorad radiator, spoon thermostat, spoon clutch line, stainless steel brake lines. I just haven't put on the turbo simply because I don't really care about it yet. My civic is tuned on hondata while still having a lot of stock components just bolt ons. I haven't put anything on just because I'm satisfied with how its running right now and how much power im pushing. I also didn't put it on because if i did i would be put into higher classes brackets at races for time attack and i know that my civic wouldn't be able to compete against other cars like boosted k20s in a civic ek chassis. currently the car is making 215hp and 176 torque. It has a really good high end now but one thing that the FK7 needs is an LSD. lmk if you have any questions or anything ill be more than happy to reply

    I may have missed it, but have you shown the cost of having a shop like Spoon do work on your car? It's be a really good way to see what quality work costs overseas here in the US. Seems many people don't know that Japanese people are also willing to spend mad $$$ for the things they want as well!

    Your spidey senses do not deceive you. The FK7 is a big car. It was the first thing I noticed driving home from the dealer and further confirmed when I tried parking it in my one car garage. My other car is a 2006 Mazda Tribute which fits easily in the same garage so I looked up the measurements and sure enough FK7 is longer than the Tribute 😂
