LOL Al, i saw you the other day. your car is looking pretty smick all nice and cleaned up :)
p.s. i only just realised they are hauling a fujitsubo exhaust in through the passenger window LOL
wonder if they make fujitsubo powergetters for the fd's yet - i would have bought that over the J's 60rs.
My mates FD2R on 18x9 Miesters

^^^^^^ lucky im still down!!!!! Holy shiiiiiiiiiit.
Dez -do you still have the FD in the family?
whats the offset? its pretty cool, just lacking d-d-dishhhhQuote:

So effectively the lip of the rim on those sit ~39mm further out than factory and requires 3° of camber in the rear.
oh ok.. thats weird o.O never knew the factory offset was +60
guess standard FDs are made to be stanced compared to the FD2R... Although i thought FD2R had bigger guards.. Really confused atm lol.
[QUOTE=jprak;3555510]saw 3x white FD's in cabra area 1 with RR front and stock rear and another with mugen kit. anyone here? besides itachi's fd
sorry about the lag, finally got to film the brake light. bad camera (iphone 4)
PRobably my FD2 with type R kit to it, i do drive arnd cabra sometimes
longer LCA and more protruding hubs to accommodate brembos would be my guessQuote:

With high offset you gain a negative scrub radius which in turn decreases torque steer and improves stability.
S2000 is also another honda that has a +60 offset from factory.
How many km's do your fd's have? i think mines a bit high
105k. Bought at 55k in 2010.Quote:

The authentic mugen one is ABS .. the only issue is then is if you get a replica type r front bumper how well will it fit, I've seen photos on the malaysian civic forum where they have one which fits the face lifted front end (definitely a replica).Quote:

bro went singapore 2 weeks ago...IF only he was into cars and shit. would of asked to ship back some stuff for my car :L

i have ordered from there, from memory, postage was reasonable (i only ordered a CF grille tho so pretty small and light). reasonably fast too and well packaged but this was like a good 2.5 years ago

I've got a spare set of FD red badges (front and rear) that I'm looking to offload if anyone is keen... -> http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Honda-Civ...item3a7bba139a
Rsstyle group buy? I have had my eye on a few things for a while.
If people are keen to do it let's cut shipping down and order a bulk lot.
Is the rstyle site your talking about the Thai one???
I'm down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmao u guys got high k's
my mum just sold the fd i used to drive
at 40000k's
yeah the thai one - group buy would be hugely advantageous in terms of shipping costs haha..
the BIGGEST and probably only problem with buying from these guys is they speak next to no english.. so it can get frustrating (also relatively slow replies). Hopefully for everyone's sake they've had some english practise over the past couple years and are now ready to converse in unbroken english
Duffy I'm keen. I want the RR front :)
damn...if i knew this was gona happen i would of cancelled my summer course == now i dont have money atm lol...
i want the ings+1 front!
also for bigger items - you may be facing import duties and taxes etc - which the site obviously cannot quantify for you
I'm definitely keen!! Love to get a type R Js lip and a few small things. Let me know tooQuote:

Only way around it was would be split shipments and possibly dodgy invoice amounts to avoid duties.
Still is a thought.
*palate of stuff comes in to the dock*
front bumper - $20 dorrar
lip - $5 dorrar
etc.
Definitely get through :thumbsup:
That's the only way to avoid it lol
