YO GUYS...i got MY KIT TODAY!!!!400$$$$ AND THEY FIT PERFECT....well after all its a replica but im more than happy with my fitting...painted it my self...matt black...thought something different...to get yours painted and fitted is 1000$ al up...bad news...ONLY 3 LEFT!!!well 2 NOW!!!hhahahha
and they are not bringing it in again!!!Its up at around hurtsville...well around 10 minutes from hurtsville...

I went up to Kirrawee today and paid for the kit, prob the last one they say... The quality looks good and it's already primed. They offered to paint the kit (four peace: front,rear,sides) for $350 so I left the kit with them for painting. They also offered to install the kit for $350, I asked if it is possible to install it myself and they said I can try and call them up if need help, so I will try first.... My problem is, there is no instructions or anything and I don't know how to install it... they gave me a bag of screws and black pastic stripes...

Can anyone shred some light? :eek:

Cheers guys!

btw have you sold ur nkb reps?

indo? mostly they import stuff from overseas as well, they dont make stuff over there,,e.g rims,
thailand,at least they make rims, call rota brand,
so it should be same price here and there,,

custom bodykit offcourse, because its a custom made, you can get anywhere for custom bodykit, doest have to be from indo

i havent bro, are you really interested?

[rene]

Why dont we all per - order either Mugen RR body kit or Ings + 1 from my mate in thai? i got my bonnet from him. We could share the cost of delivery which is the killa!

[black8thgen]

u tell me now =[. I've got my mugen kit sitting in my lounge room waiting to be painted + installed hahaha. too late! =[.

but it would cost a fortune for the RR or ings kit =/...

[ktvin09]

[black8thgen]

did u install it urself? Mines sitting in my lounge waiting to be painted and installed by my friends dad hehe =].

btw did u use the rubber beatings? I'm not sure how their meant to work... do they go at the top between the lip/car body or where else?

[ktvin09]

Did it all by myself, and my gf :P

I bought a drill for making holes (the kit came with screws). The rubber beating assuming you mean the black/red plastic strips, yea you peal off the red bit and stick that on the top edges of the kits, put it this way, when it rains the water will flow nicely on the plastic strips then to the body kit, hope you understand wat i mean.

Sth like this:

Now all i am looking for is a mugen grille, i had it before but it was blown off the highway...

[ekdez]

nice buy..

picked up the same kit about 2-3 months ago for 750 :\

[black8thgen]

ah i see, but do the strips stick to the kit or to the body of the car then? so you peel the red bit off and that sticky backing goes onto the kit?

yeah its a great buy. i also got the same kit from the same shop =]. just need to install.

[rene]

Dude nice car!!!!, btw what colour did you use for the two tone colour scheme at the rear bumper kit?

I want to spray paint abit of my front lip...bloody curb..scrub my cf lip.

rene where'd you get ur cf lip from? i'm actually pretty interested in one now =/

[ktvin09]

You're right, peal off the red bit and the sticky side to the kit, inside panel of the kit to be precise. Put it this way, the "Y" shaped plastic strip is up side down and wrap over the edge of the kit (see my picture).

A truely great shop there, people are nice and helpful! They really should get more kits for the FD... :thumbsup:

I gave them the colour code of the car (black), they painted the whole kit for me. They used glossy dark grey for the lower section of the rear bumper.

[markCivicVti]

I'd be up for the cf v-lip (mugen lip add-on).

[denot]

now all i am looking for is a mugen grille, i had it before but it was blown off the highway...

that's really neat! great price for the kits and painting as well. painting looks good - dig the shine on the front lip and love that paint on the lower/"diffuser" part of the rear lip. that paint job looks a bang for your 330 bucks!

i bought my kit from the same seller and i received it yesterday - that seller sends the stuff real fast! unfortunately i was not offered painting services by the seller. =( i'll probably DIY paint it.

great job mate - DIY install ftw! :thumbsup:

[ej20i]

ummm my side skirt fell of when i was driving and i ran over it!!!!dam it...u guys, better secure it real good...heard pop riveting it is a good idea

[bodaas]

lol what adhesive did you use?

[ej20i]

3m...but the screw came off in a storm so the wind was strong.

[ktvin09]

i used screws and washers for the side skirts, u reckon it's secure?

[ej20i]

obviously not for me...i think because of the vibration and all that..it comes undone once in a while...i just pop rivet my intact side hehehhe

[rk 86 wa]

Just put my harness in, and far out seems a little too insane lol

will post up pics soon, cant wait till thursday to see how it feels on track!

[ej20i]

harness???LOLZ!!!!!!!!that is just a LITTLE too insane mate...hhahaha

[aero]

Finally get the kit on the car... here're some pics :p

im looking to buy a kit for my fd1. most of u guys are in sydney, but im up here in brisbane. =[

[ktvin09]

[aero]

They do send to other states.

thats awesome! so, what's this place called and how can i get in contact? do they have a website or are orders done via telephone?

[black8thgen]

their out of stock =/. well thats what the seller told me.. "this is the last kit" and they arent ordering any in. =/.. but google talon body styling and call em up. =].

IM IN INDO NOW BTW!! looking to go to pasar kemayoran in the next couple days ehehe.

btw whats pop rivetting? think i migh want to do it aswell lol.. if just screws and washers came off =[

[.k.]

pop rivets are like a screw but the end is really fat, u use a tool which punches it thru (the sideskrit) into body or wateva and it securer's it.. dunno how 2 explain lol how do u not know?

question to ej20 - how did ur skirts fall off? how are they secured? - my oem ones had this silver metal backing/frame thing which the skirts slide into and then has screws at the front / back

[black8thgen]

oh well ill just tell my mate's dad to pop rivet the skirts lol. or should i do it for both front and rear bumpers too?

[rk 86 wa]

harness???LOLZ!!!!!!!!that is just a LITTLE too insane mate...hhahaha



Yup sure does hold you well though, having said that putitn gthe harness in and out is a 10 min job so i might just put in on before and take it off after every track day.

[FallenAngel]

I want a bucket seat and harness =[

Move around way too much when on the track...

[amurray]

i got the same seats now lol.. they look sweet... i got booth drivers and passanger though lol... harness is needed lol...

[dannybubu]

did you guys have to customise rails to fit the seats on?

[amurray]

i got Bride FD2r Rail's... i think RK got custom

[dmx]

ummm my side skirt fell of when i was driving and i ran over it!!!!dam it...u guys, better secure it real good...heard pop riveting it is a good idea
damn ! that's hurt. don't use rivet, worry, it would damage u bodykit, coz the impact of riveting quite strong. i only use rivet on handyman job , not for the car.;)
use screws and a lot of silicon !!!


3m...but the screw came off in a storm so the wind was strong.
3m might strong AT the beginning ! after water, dust, hot, etc, it's start to peel off:thumbdwn: so this is also warning for ducktail + roof spoiler owner(s)..lol mine start to come off, so i use silicon and now strong as power glue but removable:cool:


i used screws and washers for the side skirts, u reckon it's secure?
yes, for side skirts, screw on front guard and rear guard.
also screws at the bottom (need drilling) or use silicon at the bottom if u don't want drille :angel:


Now all i am looking for is a mugen grille, i had it before but it was blown off the highway...
next time, u need put sticker on ur rear windscreen :
WARNING ! DONT DRIVE TOO CLOSE, GRILLE AND BODYKIT MIGHT FLY AWAY




You can see I taped some bits of the under bumper cause it keeps scraping...

The rear bumper is actually pained in two colours


before i want to do like this, with black flat/matt on diffuser, thought not much different, but damn, it's nice ! :thumbsup:

little bit scarping, it's ok. you will scarp it one day, i guarantee you !!! lol
if u can pass this month, may be next month or next year, you have 365 chance to scarp in 1 year, and so for next year..lol
expecially if put Mugen V-lip, mine :
http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u283/jasperdmx/ozhonda/scrap.jpg

and if u bump too hard, the front skirt will slightly move upward and scratch ur original bumper, on the corner--but don't worry, it will gone with polishing.
http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u283/jasperdmx/ozhonda/scrap2.jpg

[ej20i]

got new sides on now...hehehe...thnx to kevin and i also got a jvc kw av810 dvd screen!!!yay!!!trying out new seats 2moro heheheh

[black8thgen]

wow awesome ej lol. hmm thats the only thing stopping me from getting a V-lip.... extra scraping lol. =[.

oh yeah, since ive been in indo for about 2 days, ive seen quite a few FD's with type-r body kits.. making me wanna get typeR kit now lol =[. But already got a mugen one.. hmm oh yeah and to fit the typeR kit on (replica), there is no need to change fenders or anything right? its just a straight front/rear bumper replacement?

anyone know other places in jakarta where i can buy some goodies for my FD?!?!??! =]

cheers

[ej20i]

KEMAYORAN man...and can u please get me some stuff bro...

[denot]

hmmm i think the replica one should be straight swap... the ori need adjustment. but anyway, let us know if you've decided to change to CTR kit... might interested on the mugen :p

[rene]

damn..i got infrictioned because of the buy bulk thread.

how does one know if you cant do that if you are a newbie that is?

black8thgen go to permaisuri ask Bowo where to go and such.

[jpestrada115]

so i use silicon and now strong as power glue but removable:cool:

still can lah even u lowered the car, coz when jacked up, they will adjust from underneath which is plenty of space.
btw normally 35 for 2 or 45 for 4, but rear ones rarely need adjustment

[Stig]

whats the drop on those eibachs? looks hot with the black rims. did u just respray the stock sport enkeis?

i think its something like 1.4", i have a sub in the boot thats why the rear looks lower than normal.

yeah i picked up some ep3r rims off a guy and sprayed them black. have a fd1, no sport rims for me =[

[ekdez]

oh fair enuf. eibach's only drop 1" .. or so ive heard.. 1.4" is only max

they any good? i was considering them before i decided against the whole spring replacing idea.

[black8thgen]

ahh i see. looks like a good drop though. i'd rather a 1.4" than a 2" due to issues with scrubbing i reckon =/..

ah i see. look niiice though. would be great if they came in 18s huh? =]

[kupang]

could someone tell me much how tein/eibach spring cost including the installation?

thanks in advance... also wondering how much will BC/tein coilover for FD cost this day....

[amurray]

3200 for tien coilover with edfc controller

[markCivicVti]

hows that turbo coming along amurray?

[kupang]

wow thats cost more then a set of rims...
=(

ej20i, welcome to the world of bucket seats, may your ass never slide around the stock park bench seat again at the track!!!

looking good!

[Stig]

they any good? i was considering them before i decided against the whole spring replacing idea.

yeah they arent too bad actually, if you're planning on having subs and stuff in the boot and tend to take passangers on a regular basis, just save your money and just get some decent coils instead lol


could someone tell me much how tein/eibach spring cost including the installation?

since the aussie dollar went down the shithole, you're looking at like $600-650 for the spring and $150 install? just save money and install it yourself :P

[JOhnnyFD]

hey guys,

im was on my way home from work on centennial drive on friday and i went past this black honda civic going the other way but i could of swore that it has white racing strips from back to front.

wondering if he/she's on this forum coz i just wanna say... wow :thumbsup: lol

[amurray]

turbo is coming along quite nicely.. should have some pics for u today :)

[dannybubu]

anyone recommed to put an oil catch can into the fd1?

[MKI4EVA]

[sKy.xD]

have you dyno'd your car yet?

[dannybubu]

[black8thgen]

does anyone know how many interior lights i would need if i wanted to change all of them to a brighter white light? because theres like the double sided thingy and i cant be bothered to pull it open atm =.=.. sooo yeah does anyone know?

on a sports model btw..

cheers

[dannybubu]

i got an 06 fd1 and after 2 yrs my car is pinging...anyone else find this? im on RON91 and the occassional 95...

[black8thgen]

hmm, what u mean by pinging?

btw can anyone hook me up with a mugen wing? preferably in NSW/Sydney area... can't find any on ebay and the store i got my bodykit from has run out of the mugen wing =[...

thanks..

[dannybubu]

pinging as in when the engine is idle you can hear it sort of ticking....or knocking sound...however you like to put it...i've yet to change to a higher octane fuel which people have said solves the problem...

[black8thgen]

oh i see, well i always fill up 95 or 98 and never heard the pinging or anything, soo that could say something? Then again my car isnt very old at all..

[cracker]

HB4 (9006) for low beam
HB3 (9005) for high beam

thnx 4 the info mang

[markCivicVti]

dynoed my car b4 turbo.... and yes fully adjustable you can get them from 999 in brisbane

Don't be a bum amurray!! Share the details on the kit!

I think we established it was the ZAGE kit from china (?). Is she in and running? Pics? Perhaps don't respond here and do a build thread with all the juicy details in the first post so ppl wont keep asking the same crap over and over again? I'm curious on things like what was used to tune it, what psi would be considered safe for the stock internals etc blah blah blah.

From my reading it seems 5-9 psi would be quite safe to run on stock internals. I'm not really considering to turbo the r18a, but give props to you mate for being probably the first to have turboed the new R-series in oz.

Some day would love to see your ride with that ear blistering sound system and the first r18 turbo in oz.

Next time your headed to 999, give me a yell, I'll come by and check out ur ride :P

[black8thgen]

anyone know a good place to get a rep mugen wing in sydney/nsw??? =/.. so hard to find one now =.=..

[rk 86 wa]

if its a ticking sound thats just our injectors. They are fairly loud lol

[dannybubu]

well...i never noticed it for 2 yrs until now...so i don't think it's the injectors...i'm going to fill up later today so i'll see what happens...

[markCivicVti]

Who in Brisbane wants to come to my place and jump start my car? :(

[warwick108]

jump start a fd1?..07?..uUuMmm.. does that mean I need a new battery soon aswell?.. lol

[warwick108]

was reading about the new civic..comes with tcs..=(

[ekdez]

no when u jump start your car.. drive it for 45 mins and it will recharge, if your alternator works.

[warwick108]

and..the new civic comes with book release.. aRgh..just seems so much better..

[warwick108]

Boot..

[black8thgen]

whats tcs? yeah boot release was tempting as i had the chance to get an 09 sport instead of my 08.. but lucky i took the 08 cos i hate hexagonal lights =.=

Got my first Fine today.... my exhaust was to low... only 70 mm off the ground. but how i got it was a bit of an odd one... yesturday i over took a silver pulsar... and turns out he was a off duty highway patrol officer.. soooo anyway he thought my car was to low... so today he came to my house... i was at work.. so my dad got in the car with him and they came to my work... made me get my car on flat ground so he could messure it.... anyways he was a really nice cop. let me off with only the fine. no defect notice... so took it strate away to be fixed.. the rear exhaust hanger had broken... arrrr lol... so yea... nothing against the cop. was a really nice guy..

Thought i would share lol

that was pretty random...that cop really wanted to dik you for that didn't he?went to your work etc...lol...

[black8thgen]

hahaa, btw can you get done for speeding if some random on the street reports your rego to the cops? or can they not do it cos they got no proof?

and does anyone know where i can get some rims repsrayed professionally with the proper coatings and stuff? and an approximation on how much it would cost on 18/19 inch set =/

cheers

[azn_ek]

my mate resprayed his rims, 18" FN2 rims to white and it cost him 50bucs per corner...

and also if anyone kno what is the rim size and offset of the JDM FD2R rims? planning on gettin 18" for FD2 but want sumthing that will hav no problems with scrubin.

[black8thgen]

oh, 50 bucks? like with what paint though, like im talking the proper rim protection coated stuff.. and clear coat etc?

i think their around +42/45? remember reading that somewhere but yeah not 100% on that mate.

are u getting genuine or replicas? if u get replicas then it will probably vary a little.. but not much?

options motorsports here has a set of reps for those =]

[black8thgen]

btw heres the info on the reps options motorsports has for sale: 18x8.5 et 45 5x114.3

8.5 with +45... that will only just fit on an fd, but u might have trouble with scrubbing the inside shocks cos its that wide..

[markCivicVti]

jump start a fd1?..07?..uUuMmm.. does that mean I need a new battery soon aswell?.. lol

Nah, the reason it needs to be jump started was cos it was sitting in the garage all weekend with one of the interior lights up the front on. From Friday night to Monday night.

And the reason it was in the garage all weekend was cos my license had expired a month ago.. only found out on Friday when I got a fine for it :(

[azn_ek]

wow 18 x 8.5, that sounds a bit too wide...? im not lookin at FD2R replica but RE30 replica in 18" but i need the exact rim measurement as i dun want any scrubbin issues, had that on my EK and yea didnt like it one bit lol....

the respray was powder coated, i was surprised with the cost as well...

[black8thgen]

seriously? wow.. where'd he get it done? =/.. could ya pm me please mate =].

ohh re30? Havn't found any like.. good replicas of those yet =/

[rene]

mmm i am thinking one similar to TRD aurion seats...lotsa cushion mmmm.

can't legally put an older engine into a newer chasis. You can import a fd2r engine tho :-) . Tho not a easy swap into a fd1.

what he said, but then again.. with all the mod's you have in your car already.. is it legal atm? why not just keep going..

why dont u import a fd2r from overseas, striped for race use.. 20g's..

you import is as a race car.. only has a drivers seat in it.

it would be much easier then doing a swap.

[jem.142]

and then once you get bored at the track do the engine conversion + you will have the bumpers and all that stuff to do a full on FD2R conversion ;) haha

[rk 86 wa]

I was considering doing it with a k20z1 from a dc5s, but for the price it will take I can buy the s2000 ive wanted at the end of this year so i figured, be happy with the fd1 for the moment and in a years time buy a car thats actually fast from factory that I wont be shitting myself when I get yellow'd cause I have an illegal engine in the car haha.

[amurray]

if you guys want more power out of your FD1s... cheapest and best option is turbo... and if you knew how much a replacment R18 is.... you would be doing it :P

[bodaas]

my bro rang me from singapore yesterday,, he passed so many fd2R yesterday on the road
but he couldnt find at least one fn2R.. lol,,,

[ej20i]

LOL!!!
ummm i paid 575 installed...but wuld be cop really know the diff between fd1, fd2?i meant the k20a looks quite similar to fd2 aint it?

[ej20i]

latest mod...09 sidemakers on my 08

[black8thgen]

what r sidemakers? =/

[ej20i]

[howy]

is rr edition faster than base fd2 type R ?

Yeah it should be, the FD2R has 165kW, whereas the RR has 177kW (plus it's tuned even more by Mugen).

[cracker]

yeah so its like even lighter too..especially that super mega CF one

[Sherweeeny]

but at the end of the day... it is still FWD right?

[rene]

thats why i dont modify my engine's :)

Yeah it should be, the FD2R has 165kW, whereas the RR has 177kW (plus it's tuned even more by Mugen).
RR advanced is 191 KW and much lighter than RR

if you guys want more power out of your FD1s... cheapest and best option is turbo... and if you knew how much a replacment R18 is.... you would be doing it :P
go with supercharger. with turbo, you will risk ur stock engine( cause by boost leak) unless change the all internal parts, means will ended with high cost too.
if not, max turbo can be boost up to 0.5 bar only (assume thai civic engine built = JDM engine strength, and no leaks)
but with supercharger, u can go up to 0.8 bar without worry boost leaking (cause supercharger playing with the pulley).
other hand, superchanger will boost from beginning of ur revs, compared turbo will start around 2-3k rev depends on set up.

[markCivicVti]

remember spending quite sometime looking for a supercharger for the R18... there was one company that showed interest in developing it but they said they were focusing more on a supercharger for k20 for the si in the US. I wonder if they are ever going to go ahead and develop us a supercharger.

Anyone aware of one for the R18a?


Edit: nope, looks like the company went bust.. or at least not making any updates to the site/forum.

[black8thgen]

wonder how many people are actually interested in supercharging their r18s or k20s?

anddd finally.. getting my full mugen kit with wing installed this week! =].

[ryanc]

black8thgen: remember to post up pics here :D

[markCivicVti]

yea man...american has done it...they love to supercharge and turbo charge their hondas

Yet to hear of a supercharged R18a in the US. Not sure about thai/maylasia as I don't know the languages.

[ktvin09]

amurray: Have you installed the turbo yet? Done any dyno? Any figures to share with us? :)

[rene]

Omg all this engine talk!! lol its killing me!!

Bodass & denot, it sadden me that you are changing your car...!

At the very least show up on the meeting on 14th..let me slap some sense into you hehehe.

I got a question. will 2008 FN2R CTR Civic Type R Wheels fit on fd?? the size is 18" x 7.5 +55 offset. Thanks a lot.

[ekdez]

yeah they will.. and if you have scrubbing issue's.. u can always buy spacers.

[ks_b]

I am pretty noob about car here. what is offset actually do? Im thinking its the distance between the wheels and suspension right? since civic only +45 but this alloys is +55 ... big different. I dont want to have any trouble after i buy it.

which part will have scrubbing issues? and how spacers will help solve that?

thanks a lot!!

it sure does, shouldnt have any issue

[dmx]

remember spending quite sometime looking for a supercharger for the R18... there was one company that showed interest in developing it but they said they were focusing more on a supercharger for k20 for the si in the US. I wonder if they are ever going to go ahead and develop us a supercharger.

Anyone aware of one for the R18a?


Edit: nope, looks like the company went bust.. or at least not making any updates to the site/forum.

ooppsss...my comment is for K20.
R18 designed for eco driving, not point buy R18+add turbo,
better go with sports/K20 + little do some engine mods:thumbsup:

[azn_ek]

but r18a is actually not bad for turbo charging since it has the perfect compression ration for a turbo.

IMO it has gone past the point of nice to rice. Tho I'd still swap cars with that guy lol.

[denot]

thats a real Type R with Japanese number plate?

[rene]

thats a real Type R with Japanese number plate?

Nope FD VTI modified to that.

[denot]

Nope FD VTI modified to that.

i see.. dunno why the owner didnt just bought the CTR cause its available there... :p

[rene]

ahh presumptions my young padawan..what makes you think its in japan?

I dont believe australia allows ctr to be running around "legally" on the street?


i see.. dunno why the owner didnt just bought the CTR cause its available there... :p

[denot]

No way rene... is it yours? I make the "ass of u an me"ption from the big number plate and especially the rear one showing like a 2-3 digit of jap char on the top of it... but then again... This cloud of dark force might have blinded me, Master...

[xqwzit]

it will look hot if

1.change back the headlights
2.change back the taillights
3.get rid of the black door handles and the strip below it
4. and prob another set of rims with better offset

well each to their own :)

edit: also the side mirrors and indicators

too rice now.. haha

[rene]

Patience my young one, I sense dark cloud within you. let the force guide you.

The car belong to me is not. On FD meeting, the answer will be given. :p

whys that? i also agree with this, the lights are rice, it would look absolutely awesome as a stock CTR, but now it just looks cheap with ebay lights etc.

[denot]

didnt u guys read previous posts? its not CTR, its FD1

sorry for bad image, but you get the point

[ktvin09]

I don't know about everyone but I never think these head lights would suit our FD, especially when stopped next to an Audi or BMW at the lights, it'll be very emberassing...

[denot]

especially when stopped next to an Audi or BMW at the lights, it'll be very emberassing...

er... why? they're different... I think its more embarassing if you have all the CTR stickers on your car and stop next to the real CTR (not the FD2R though... theres no real FD2R in Oz)

[rene]

yea stopping next to the real CTR in OZ would be close to impossible.

I dont have the guts to stick "type R" badge on my car lol. Still has "vti" badge on it.

denot should that car "suddenly" available for sale, would you take it?

By the way no one notice about his "mugen RR" front bumper?

also check this site guys..first page makes me wet :)

[denot]

^^^ Depends on the price, might buy it if the OEM parts included. Then take everything out. Sell the car, then sell the parts seperate :p

I have enough with FD bro... sorry... :p

[ks_b]

ok thanks for answering... looks good lolz... hope it will looks good on white FD.

did you have to put in any spacer? any bad driving performance?

[warwick108]

are those fndr rims?.. does it hit anything?..hows the offset?

[Sherweeeny]

didnt u guys read previous posts? its not CTR, its FD1

obviously you didnt understand me. let me rephrase that, it would look good enough as a REPLICA, it didnt need all the extra faux Audi and BMW bits.

but im pretty sure i saw TIMII or whatever his name is in his (what i thought was riced up) FD1, however when i saw it at cherrybrook roundabout last night, i kinda thought it looked cool.

[Sherweeeny]

let me re-think again. it's not 4 screws, about 6 screws.
3 outside and 3 inside.
the inside ones, you have to slide to front to get 1 screw and slide back again to get another 2 screws (if i'm not mistaken..lol)

[Sherweeeny]

er... they are OEM cars on the correct car... FD's come with those rims... just the Type R.
