Alan: thanks for the photo ! looks sick!

[DuffyFD]

Enjoy your P.O.S projectors then :thumbsup:

The eBay link is to HID for reflectors. These are similar to what the EP3 use, and the JDM FD2r uses these as well.

They will work just like normal HID's would in our AUDM cars since our reflectors headlights are made for a halogen light pattern, not a HID one. ^^

[curtis265]

pnp is what they steer you away from

however i find the FD HID glare is no worse than a lifted 4wd.



Do what you please.

[lolmclol]

I have thing against anyone running HID's without projectors, they're an annoyance on the road and are done without any consideration towards other drivers.

That glare :-x

[xenonkuraz]

Mine have no glare but I'm considering going back to halogen. I've had my hid kit in for 5 years now and the bulbs are finally getting dull

[xenonkuraz]

Guys. Big news! I've decided on my next course of action.

K24A3 + Flashpro + turbo.

[black8thgen]

OOOOOFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTT do it! how much would u be looking at for that?

[xenonkuraz]

Looking to spend around $2000 for the motor. Will do a full rebuild; port and polish, aggressive cams, bigger pistons...a full overhaul. Nothing is gonna be left out this time.

Have no idea how much I'm looking at for labour but my guess is 5k for motor out and new motor in.

Tuning and Flashpro I have covered!!

[curtis265]

what the hell man

what's wrong with your current build?

[xenonkuraz]

Getting bored of it. Doesn't produce enough torque steer :( I need more displacement

[Stevil]

Good stuff xenon !

[curtis265]

mun.. power corrupts hey

[DuffyFD]

Getting bored of it. Doesn't produce enough torque steer :( I need more displacement

And what are you going to do with your current setup then? Sell you car and buy a cheap fd2 and then do the transplant?

[xenonkuraz]

Yeah bad. Have tuned the car twice now and even though its almost double the stock power I'm still not happy. There's always something to tinker.

Think I need to hit up a Mod Anonymous addition group

[xenonkuraz]

And what are you going to do with your current setup then? Sell you car and buy a cheap fd2 and then do the transplant?

No I plan to remove the current motor and mod the turbo kit to fit the new motor, would be minimal changes to the charge piping really and oil return

[DuffyFD]

Yeah I thought that as soon as I wrote the last message.

How much is the rr front?

I got one from mars performance shipped from victoria which is pretty good ... I know I could have sourced it for cheaper but eh.

It came with everything, clip on grill mesh, the projectors and the front covers and the LEDs for the base of the front bumper (won't be using them though).

I was considering it, but I'm afraid of getting the alignment wrong... I'm trying to figure out where to get a good deal on a mugen rear lip..

Question: I can get the whole kit, minus the rear lip, in ABS plastic. OTR is selling the mugen rear for 280 delivered but that's PU plastic. Would there be any difference when painted on? I heard texture may be different??

Thanks.

in regards to fitting the kit. it isnt hard putting it on. you will need another person though.

body kit texture may be different but not really noticeable. personal preference, doesnt bother me.

would anyone know where i can get fd2r rear swaybar mounting brackets from? having trouble finding some for my whiteline RSB

[Stevil]

tmach why dont you get a suspension place to open up the bushes instead of swaping brackets and bushes ? Thats what I did when I upgrade my front bar which was 23mm to 29mm ! they should have a little pnuematic circular file grinding thingo, takes a steady hand but can be done in under 10mins.

Well I've managed to get FD2R sway bar brackets from japan so that's sorted. The problem is that they don't make FD1 RSB and only for FD2R's. So I have to change the endlinks and brackets to accompany this

Hey guys, would 8.5" wide rims with an offset of +40 fit my FD2 without any scrubbing?

[lolmclol]

probably going to run into issues with the offset I reckon

also if you had read through the thread, you would know to state whether if you're running coilovers/guards rolled/low-as-fuk/camber etc

Oh right, I'm on springs with a 1.5" drop

Would something like 7.5" wide with 35+ offset be better?

[lolmclol]

to be honest, I've seen 9" +35 without issues, the offset is just the only thing, pretty sure you'll run into problems with coilovers should you choose that path down the track, just roll your fenders and watch your fuel pump cover

hi guys, my friend is gonna get a set of Volk TE37 17x9 +15, but he doesn't know much about setting up. He has asked me to help him but I dont know either :-) Could you guy help him.
His car is a FD1, stock suspension. The things he ask me are:
1) does he need to change his suspension to coilover, or just change a spring?
2) does he need any cambet kit?
3) what tyres are for the best setting up?

Thanks all

[black8thgen]

gonna need some flat guard rolling and lots of camber. maybe camber bolts will do... and probably a 215/45 tyre will stretch enough to clear the guards. If he can't fit them in with 215, go 205 tyre but it won't be very comfortable.

areis has run 17x9 +22 te37s without too much difficulty so hopefully he can tell u exactly how much camber he ran. But i'm pretty sure his guards were rolled completely flat when he had them on - no flaring/pulling needed.

[iou]

this is the reason why he is falling in love with TE37

http://i.imgur.com/vE32Smp.jpg

[DuffyFD]

For the rear you'll need to add camber definitely. Camber sliders / camber arms necessary.

For the front you'll need camber bolts at a minimum.

I wouldn't run that size rims and not be on coilovers. You need to run coilovers to restrict the suspension travel which will be necessary with this size wheel.

You'd need 215/40-45's otherwise you can say goodbye to your sidewalls.

For example I run 17x9 +12 up front and the wheel sits outside the guard, with camber bolts on max negative camber, and my guards completely flat and slightly pulled.

Will look the goods once they fit though.

[Areis]

Dude I told him exactly what specs to run and shit when he PMed me --

But yeah exactly what Duffy said except keep the side wall to 40. U don't want 45, trust me lol... Cracked a guard cause of 45.

[JOhnnyFD]

if you want your shocks to piss out oil after 40000km, have a range of adjustment from 'ultra hard' to 'rock hard', and also have the left and right's with different damping rates... then go for it..

[black8thgen]

actually the BC BR series are quite decent for the price i hear. Reviews haven't been all too bad. Same can't be said for Megan or D2 though...

[Stevil]

I give the GAB SS coilovers a big wrap, only done a coupla thousand km's with em but when you turn em up they go hard, turn em down and soft as, looking forward to track testing em this weekend.

[Areis]

2 of my mates have the BC BR series coilovers in an s2000 and e46 BMW. I can say they are probably the best money for value coilovers. Furthermore, BC racing coils are known to be able to go very very low :) however the downside is that they claim to have 46 levels of damper adjust or whatever it is, thats just bullshit and only has about 2/3rds of what they say.

"43 clicks" is meaningless without a shock dyno to determine actual damping range. 43 clicks between rock solid and backbreaking means less than 10 clicks ranging daily comfort to track-spec-stiffness


What are you talking about? BC BR, Megan and DC2 are one of the top brand out there today. i know HEAPS of people on BC BR and they're not having problems

Not quite man. not quite. Empirical evidence does not speak louder than factual research. BC has good after sale support from what I hear but that's about it...

That's like buying super cheap auto tools and having them constantly replaced under warranty vs buying a snapon set.

This. D2 coils shat themselves after 10-15k of STREET driving lol.. so that says enough...

I have HSD coils in my s2k atm (previous owner's choice)... and f me its seriously like riding on rocks. softest damper feels like im in a leb-spec commy with chopped springs and 22inch rims with 2cm worth of tyre

So.. pay the money, save up the extra coin, and get some good JDM shit and be done with it. Do it once do it right!

[EKVTIR-T]

Theres lots to be considered though for a coilover as street use

Afterall traditionally they are a racing type style and having aggressive valving on bumps,something has to give out eventually

Road use obviously has a huge range of shitty conditions,potholes,railways lines,damaged bitumens we all drive on daily

do you alter the valving to suit those condition then people complain they feel too soft and not "sporty"

or you have aggressive valving and softer spring rates....theres ALOT of variable and setups we can try so no wonder its a pandoras box trying to choose a suspension that does everything and ticks all boxes




/rant

[envoytheguy]

Hey buddy I've got Buddyclub N+ coilovers on my daily FD for about 2 months and they ride a bit firmer than stock. You can go very low which obviously gets bumpier but they're still decently smooth. I reckon they're good value coilovers and recommend them. The guys over at 8thcivic seem to say the same thing too

[JOhnnyFD]

i've got tanabe sustec pro nf.. had em on for over 4 yrs.. no probs on em.. def cant go wrong with jdm

[chunky]

I will say this, a lot of the lancer guys rock BC BR coilovers because its pretty much the only option for them and there is a lot of positive stuff coming from them.. At $1999 from justjap, 30 level dampening, 12 month australian warranty, the value is there. A lot of them havent really had coils before so they cant really compare. Some say that theyre great, but there are some that are less than impressed with their performance/ comfort. The BRs are rated for street use, and they have the RM inverted option for track use as well which just jap said wouldnt only last for about 5000ks on the street due to the valving etc

One thing to mention. Make sure you get top mounts for the front. Worry less about whether they're camber adjustable etc, but just don't rely on the stock ones.

The Cusco's don't come with them so I was forced to use stock ones and they have developed alot of play in them.

It has no muffling capability whatsoever so you'll need another resonator to avoid it sounding like a swarm of bees behind you.

When shut it's stock quiet.

J's racing isnt too loud, maybe they put in a straight pipe. i have the FD2R 60rs ver catback and it isnt loud.

How much did you pay for it? if you dont mind me asking.
My friend was going to sell me his Varex Muffler for $150. So i thought I'd ask.

[jprak]

LOL all good lolmclol!!

Paid 2nd hand 1.4 incl shipping from Canberra where ekdez had it. It's expensive due to being made of titani.

Fitment wise it's good though its made for FD2R

[JOhnnyFD]

My mugen twinloop backbox I got for 500 then paid another 100 for resonator delete.

Backfires on downshifts, not too loud unless you're hammering

Like i said guys. My friend was selling me a Varex Muffler for $150 and i wanted to see if anyone has had one or heard one on a K20Z2 Engine.
I was looking at twin loops but not too sure. Are all twin loops the same or different brands have different sounds?

Yeah. I like the butterfly valve on the Varex cause then i can make it quiet when im coming home and then open it up when im going out.
I just dont want my car to sound high pitched like a fart

as i said before, they're a straight through, so they will sound harsh withot other resonators. If you're using it as an axleback you'll be fine

i have the js racing 70rs Ti on my s2000 and it aint high pitched.. but it is freaking loud..

tbh on an FD, if u dont get a catback (so just an axle-back) it sounds shit unless u do resonator delete

[JOhnnyFD]

resonator delete, it would def be loud... mine i got it with the j's catback and the resonator on the j's is smaller than oem

I dont want it to be loud. I want something quiet with a deep noise.
Not too loud were it attracts attention.

The Varex and xForce is pretty much the same though right?
Same company?

Top mounts. Do these seem legit?

Does anyone have their stock top mounts that they wanna sell?

Yeah could just be a wrong/default pic.

I've tried

ASR -$350 pair
D2 - $165-200 each
Silvers $250 pair

Trying to not waste money since I wanna sell.
