Try checking some europian and UK sites, they are most likely to start with mods

leave it for another few months , some aftermarket catback , header etc will come out soon

[lukits01]

CPL have a reflash thats supposedly making 173wHp
its on their website
they have a prototype header+exhaust but wont be releasing just yet

and theres a AEM short ram intake for sale in the UK

I will be testing if previous K20 Flywheel and LSD will fit in the FN2, at this stage, there's no reason to say that they wont.

EP3 front camber bolts will fit FN2 but have not confirmed if they are 14mm or 16mm bolts

Front and Rear Brake Pads are the same as EP3 and therefore same as S2000 as well as AUSDM DC5R (TBC) not sure about the discs, pretty sure the front is same as AUSDM DC5R at 300mm

oh as for wheels
most agressive offset you can get safely is
8J +48
or
7.5J +43
Diameter up to 20" has been ok

would 20" be too large for FN2 ?..Coz the car is already a heavy one:confused:

I would probably keep it on 18".:p

[lukits01]

Same here, but I have 17s for race rubber in the near future
and seeing that the brakes are same as AUSDM DC5R you could probably fit 16" if you really wanted to

come on guys, the trend is 20" now.don't be regret later (like me :(:(

[Malenic1981]

CPL made some good gains, that's around 20HP@wheels over stock one, not bad at all

:eek: Wot ve happened to u dude

[GupZ]

Where do you get this info from ?

Just have had a look at the GruppeM web site, no air intake for FN2:(

Rumour has it that James from Hondata/Hondatech has just purchased a Civic Type R and is using it as a test car to develop a header, exhaust, intake, ECU combination for the FN2. Waiting in anticipation.....

That sounds awesome...only thing is the new ECU that hondata has released disables the stock honda immobiliser and for some, well for me that is my actual insurance company won't insure me unless the immobiliser is enabled..hopefully James can actually rectify this through his testing.

This looks insane...probably encourage anyone wanting to do mod's to there new FN2 to wait for hondatech to complete this project first.

The Aus Spec Hondata ECU will allow for the factory immobilser to still function...

so do you know where could buy one of these ECU?

[Wazza]

The Hondata ECU is only in the inital stages of development, at a guess I would say you need to wait at least six months until they are released.

[Chris_typer]

Yes well I actually posted in the Hondata forum and apparently the guy actually design the ECU and other mod's has about 4 stores in NSW's alone which sells his parts...so I suppose when it gets closer to release date, I will be asking where abouts we can purchase the mods.

yea..you are right. Just recieved an e-mail from TODA, and they told me the Hondata ECU (immbolizer enable) would be released after 6 months.

Yes this is 100% correct he picked the car up last week and I had a look at it when I was in Melbourne last week,he has already had it on the dyno for testing.

[Chris_typer]

[GupZ]

Hey..anyone know anything about the FN2 mods released?

[Jaso]

the jdm dc5r brembos fit onto fn2? im thinking about gettin some but not sure if they'll it

[ennavoli]

The jdm DC5R brembos will never bolt on directly onto the FN2. You might be looking at changing the control arms/drive shafts or even the whole undercarriage, which does not make financial sense.

I do not know about FN2, but for EP3 which is more similar to a DC5R, there are too much costs involved to even consider about the conversion.

Are you changing it for looks? I believe the standard brakes on the FN2 is already very good, why not just change pads and have a go at it?
