They're not Static. I know the Silver one was on Bags but not sure about the black one.
The black ones wheels are right next to the fenders. Doubt that would be static/Daily Driven
Alot of Agents are VIP Bagged style cars. I've hung out with them a few times. Not my cup of tea
Correct me if I'm wrong though.

What is that btw.
They always ask me to install it on my android

[lolmclol]

Basically software to browse the forum instead of using stock browser, the new versions should be alright, but you need to pay to upgrade, I'm on an old version :-p

It's good and all, but it has the occasional bugs that won't ever get fixed because its not breaking the application from use.

Basically they'll fix application breaking bugs, but not annoying little bugs, for annoying little bugs they want you to pay for the new version.

ive tried putting on my friends dc5r wheels, it didnt clear the front brakes. You would have to grind/shave your brakes a bit for it to clear. As for the rear it was fine.

i had dc5r wheels (audm) ages ago on my fd, no grinding necessary no problems at all


I too had a set of AUDM DC5R rims on a FD1 Civic, I can tell you they clear the caliper, JUST. My front left cleared by a paper width, the front right I had to sand the caliper as it was JUST touching/grinding, which is weird as the car was stock as a rock.

I don't even know anymore..

Why are there screws? There should be holes already made by factory.
You just need the clips and a small screw.

Those new screws looks massive.

yo, what's the wheel width and Offset for stock OEM honda civic 2011 vti-l models? Trying to input into a tyre calculator

16x6.5 +42?? (my guess...)

16x6.5 is definitely right ... offset not sure ... but definitely around 40~45

16 x 6.5 + 50 or 55

hi guys, 17x9 +22 which tyres are the best for this set up? 215/40/17 or 235/40/17

215/40/17

Thanks

its a bit too chucky, thus increasing your chances of scrubbing

[jprak]

hi guys, 17x9 +22 which tyres are the best for this set up? 215/40/17 or 235/40/17

with that set up, you should go 215/45/17 you'll get that stretch on the wheels and looks nice. 40 is too thin

[xenonkuraz]

I run 215/45 on the rears. Nice natural stretch

235/40 on the front for traction

17x9 +20 all around

Stock suspension natural canberra

45 profile will feel much softer on the street compare to 40 profile?

[jprak]

yes cause its thicker...+ less chance to buckle your rims

350z rims on fd??

17x8 +30/33

[NeedVtec]

I know they fit but what ya reckon?

200 for a set, wonder if it will okay

WTF! Where?!
I'll buy them if you're not getting them!

@IOU
I would go 215/40
BUT Didnt you say you wanted to track your car?
Or was that your friend? (I cant remember) If you are going for track build then 235/45 or even 255
But that will require some stiff coilovers and a reasonable height.

[jprak]

235 too thick..need 225 instead

[Honda_FD]

235 too thick..need 225 instead

even for a track car?
When i got my CR Kais they had 255 on the 9" rim and it wasnt that chunky.

Fires port man

[iou]

LOL, now i am even more confused.
215,225,235/40,45
I understand that if i want to get the comfortable then i have to sacrifice the look or if I want to get the good look I have to give up the comfortable.
To be simple, the tyres I want are:
1) Not to thick (to get the good look)
2) Not to thin (to get the comfortable)
3) Not getting scrubbed or anything when full load

I'm thinking about xenonkuraz's set up. 235/40 (fronts) and 215/45 (rears)
Should I run 235/40 all around, any issues?

[iou]

@ honda_FD: i have a set of DC5R brembo brakes. If you are interested pm me, I will give you a surprising price.

Slammed on stock wheels are the way to go!

a handful. Tiny bump on the road and im smashing my frame on the ground
both front Tow Hooks have actually bent upwards. The chassis behind the front wheel

It should be 215/45/17.
Theres a guy near my area selling DC5S rims.
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?177623-DC5-Mugen-Wing-More

I managed to lowball him to $250 :D
But unsure which one to go for now

Show me what your FD Looks like. please :)
Im curious to see what type of FD's we have in Melbourne

Bone stock man. Just a regular fd sport

Will give him a buzz tomorrow

[xenonkuraz]

Anyone here got a stock civic sport intake that they wanna get rid of?

I have

[threesix]

Same here bro.
Slammed on stock wheels are the way to go!
Car looks high in this picture though. But driving it is quite
a handful. Tiny bump on the road and im smashing my frame on the ground
both front Tow Hooks have actually bent upwards. The chassis behind the front wheel
is just as bad. Just a Car Park Whore really...

yeah, 18's make my car stand high. my car never scrapes though. i want 17x9 all around. + diiissshhh.

[jprak]

17x9 +20-35? YEA YEA?! DO IT!


only thing you might need to do is roll the rear guards but thats it.

my set up was:

BBS LMs
17x9 + 35 all round
215/45 for tyres (minor stretch)
rear guards rolled.
was on springs (1.5F and 1.4R)

[threesix]

perfect!

i had to get my guards hella rolled to fit 18x9 up back.

[stevo1210]

Would look funny on a stock height car though

Mud flaps look fine with stock Civic IMO. I had them on my car from new. Rear ones held on with screws and one clip... front held on with screws which penetrate the fender clips.
Will have to let mine go in the future so the Modulo side skirts can be installed.

Ballin'

[Honda_FD]

So as you may know. My car was rear ended recently.
And because of that my xForce Twin Loop Muffler was damaged in the accident.
Since its not an illegal modification they're paying me out for a brand new one ($300)
But since they're going to deposit the money into my bank I'm thinking of putting in a
little extra for a Varex Muffler (VMK8-250) They go for $450 fitted

That way i can fart around town and then close it up when im near home.
My twin loop in fine though. It just has a cracked tip.

Thoughts?

[NeedVtec]

Shit get the varex mate. Just a better investment and probably would save some head aches, literally.


Where you get the quote for 450 install?

[Honda_FD]

Where you get the quote for 450 install?

TrueFlow in Westwood Drive. Near DeerPark.
They distribute for xForce, Redback, Iron Man and all that.

Which part of Melbourne are you from?

http://www.trueflowexhausts.com.au/contact-free-exhaust-safety-check

[NeedVtec]

West burbs, 10min from there. Was keen on getting exhaust, especially for 450 indtalled. Is it straight bolt on? Need to know if I can put my stock one back on

[Honda_FD]

The Varex has a flange at the back. So I think they might have to cut the pipe that connects
to the stock muffler and weld a flange onto that. Well, Thats what they did to my Twin loop.

[NeedVtec]

Any chance you got a vid of your twin loop?

[Honda_FD]

Any chance you got a vid of your twin loop?

Like a video of me revving and all that?
I'll do it later tonight when mum goes out. Dont want to rev the car when parents are home

You wanna buy it? :)
I'll sell it to you for $50

How bad is the damage? Affect sound?

[Honda_FD]

How bad is the damage? Affect sound?

It just has a crack on the inside of the tip.
And a few scratches under because cars low.

No effects to the sound. No cracks on muffler. No exhaust leak
Overall The exhaust is slightly louder than OEM. Gives the car a deeper note though.

I'll make a short clip when mum goes out. Around 5:00pm-ish

Or we can meet up somewhere and I can physically show you.

[NeedVtec]

Yeh clip would be nice, working til midnight tonight.

Not straight bolt on aye? Will need to chop and weld a flange on.

[Honda_FD]

Not a flange. They'll chop off your stock pipe and then weld it straight onto the Muffler.

The Varex mufflers have a Flange

[NeedVtec]

Hmm would have to hear it aye

[Honda_FD]

Hmm would have to hear it aye

Yeah. I'll record it tomorrow. Its too dark now and cant see the crack

[xenonkuraz]

I'm gonna cut out my magna flow and install blast pipes

Drift spec.

[NeedVtec]

Yeah. I'll record it tomorrow. Its too dark now and cant see the crack

Alright sweet. How much you reckon they charge to re weld it on to mine?

[Honda_FD]

Alright sweet. How much you reckon they charge to re weld it on to mine?

You can see a little crack on the tip. But it wasnt very visible as i recorded it on a iPhone
Might cost around $50 to install. depending where you go

The air bag canceller is a solder-on (for you to do) airbag warning light canceller when installing aftermarket seats. Based on the ohm of the standard sensor, you need to buy the correct one. See your factory specs for which you require!
not sure if it'll trick the ecu or not.

I dont really want another exhaust in the garage :S
As my stock one is just sitting there collecting dust

I just ordered the Varex today and its taking a day or two to arrive.
So if you want the Twin Loop maybe you can meet me there and do it at the same time.
Saves time and money

Is your FD Sports model?
Also, Can you please pm me your phone number?
Makes it easier to talk instead of going through OzHonda


saw ya at the meet at oakleigh and chaddy meet :P

That was my brother lol.
He wanted to go but i didnt so he took the car.
Its so weird driving it that high. My eye level is way off.

Auto, Manual. Same shit.
Driving with an Auto is very... "Fart" like and Drones on the freeway.
Also, You got that one constant note through all the gears cause you
dont have the Accelerator off + Clutch sound
Other than that. Sounds the same.

Not sure if the R18 and the K20 has a different sound or not though.

My drivers sides all scratched cause i leave my phone in there when i drive :)
I might just plasti dip it or something. I just want to do something different.
Thought sticker bomb might look good since my whole interior is black so those colourful
stickers will stand out.



LV or Gucci trimmed bro

LOL true! Might do my seats aswell

I also got fake grass my in boot. Looks funny but I like it.

[Adam_NA]

I don't suppose anyone has ever seen an EP3 subframe next to an FD2 one?

Wondering if I could get away with using it with some small changes or if they're completely different

EP3 being the European designed Civic and FD being Japanese I'm thinking the front end architecture might be different?

[Honda_FD]

wait what

I was kidding, Bro.
But EKVTIR-T Said he doesnt do that type of stuff


fake grass as floor mates while driving bare feet,,, yea buddy!

hmmm why not just paint it to a diff colour? or well you know carbon. LOL!

If i was to paint it. I'd have to paint the inside door handle and some long plastic piece on the door
to make them match. Which then requires me to take the whole door apart :(

Do you know where in Melbourne I can get an A4 sticker bomb sheet?

Not quite sure if its the same one youre talking about but in order to remove it you twist the knob in the middle and its got 2 tabs/clips on the side. So its right above the pedals and under the steering wheel. Ill take pics soonnnn

Ohh really? I might be in that area on the weekend if you're free.
No idea where Endeavour Hills is but Im going to be around Vermont/Wantirna South


@xenonkuraz
Can you make stickerbomb sheets or know anyone that would be able to make one up?

ALSO! Does anyone know if the R18 Air Sensor are the same as the K20z?
I found and Intake System for an R18 but if the Sensor housing is the same I'll just cut it up and
weld it onto and new pipe

Was talking to someone recently, the sensor on the K20z is determined by the diameter of the pipe, so if you try and alter where the sensor sits even just a little bit, it will throw a check engine light.

(Unless if the facelift models are different, disregard that)

No. One's s map, one's a maf sensor.

[xenonkuraz]

Honda_fd don't do sticker bomb sheets anymore sorry

Curtis is correct, r18 is map sensor and k20 is maf (mass air flow)

Why not just buy a k20 intake.

Not necessarily true. Pre turbo I moved my maf around a lot, putting distance and sometimes shortening the track to the intake. No affect on performance or CEL. however if you remove the vains from the maf housing that screws up the air velocity hitting the sensor and may cause cel or jerking/stalling issues.

Yeah. I was looking at Intakes and saw one for the R18.

I might buy a K&N Typhoon for the 2.0L
I like the Idea of the whole Heatshield thing. I have a homemade SRI

The typhoon kit is a gimmick. There's no point of having a short ram with a heat shield. Might as well go cold air

Ohhhh? I dont like CAI for some reason... Makes it look like theres a giant chunk of the engine missing.
If i get a CAI. Will be fog lights block the air coming in anyways?

theres a small gap behind the foglight so it'll still work (Y)

Oh okay. And would i need to relocate the Battery?
I noticed that Hybrid Racing/Skunk2 and JDM Password comes with a relocation kit.

[jprak]

^ dont think you'll need to relocate. it should just go straight down. someone confirm as i dont have a CAI

[Baygon]

Dont you need an intake manifold for the fd2?

Goes straight down, no relocating, i got RR front bumper and the filter sits right behind it.

[xenonkuraz]

Relocation necessary for some kits as the pipe goes down the side behind the passenger headlight.

Some will just snake above the transmission down behind the radiator

In all honestly if you don't want to go CAI stick with your current setup

[xenonkuraz]

Dont you need an intake manifold for the fd2?

Covered this one before, some say you do because of the angle of the TB. I've found that you don't need to change anything and I've used 4 different intakes before going turbo.

Can anyone answer if RBC will be direct bolt on to my k20z2?

[chrischris]

Hey guys regarding intakes, is it possible to put a pod filter on the current set up? I have the 2.0L pre-facelift. i know it wont be a performance boost like a CAI but it will have a better induction noise. Would be easy if the sensor wasn't in the way. That pic from page 1437, thats a DIY yeah, Honda_FD any more info on that?

Not worth the heat soak buddy.
