Have anyone here got the Type R bodykit from jdmyard? I wonder if the rear bar will fit my fd2. The fd2 has 2 outlets which I think is too big for the rear bar. Anyone has experience? How much would it cost to change the exhaust outlet so that it fits the profile on the type R kit rear bar?

Is it.. a dying battery? Would I need replacement?

Thanks!

Possibly a weak battery? When was the last time you changed it? Do you have something like a sub or amp hooked up in a dodged way that's draining the battery?

Might be spark plugs? You're meant to change them every 100,000KM.

Really love the wheels, Chris!

Mate bought his kit from jdmyard, crazily overpriced though.. anyhow, the only problem from memory was that the front bar requires you to trim either the bar itself, or reinforcement bar on the front to fit. I believe the rear was fine, he was using an aftermarket exhaust much bigger than stock, so I assume it's fine.

Um.. car has only done about 60k, haven't changed it, I do have factory bass speakers out rear w/ a small amp, plus.. a headunit, etc. maybe causing more strain on the battery? Car as been fine since that day.. maybe I can wait it out..

What's a decent battery replacement? Been researching, always mixed results.

Lol why overpriced? I can't find a cheaper kit. Do you know any where I can get one?

So the front bar doesn't fit well, is that what youre saying? Is your mate's stock exhaust the same as the chrome one on fd2?

Also do you lower your car with springs or coilovers? Heard springs blow your shocks. Any ideas? I'm thinking of getting mugen RR kit since it looks lower than type R kit. Would the RR kit look okay on stock heights?

Thanks for reply btw

Probably not your amp, but you should replace your battery every 4 years. If there's a lot of corrosion around it, it's probably a sign to change it and clean it off with a towel in the meantime.
