Yeah they're too weak. I was this close to getting them in 17x9.5 +18 which would set your car off perfectly.
I run spacers on the front, have been for 18 months or more. I suggest you get 2 sets of 20mm.
Problem with rpf1s is that until they get 9inches wide and around +20 offset the faces look soft.
Only thing thats stopping me from going aggressive is because i take a full load quite often. I was thinking around 10-15mm of 2 sets. What brands of spacers you running Duffy? Eibachs are heaps good but a but pricey. At the moment im running 215/45 tyres and i think i should switch to 215/40 when i do get the spacers.
Hey guys quick question on wheel fitment. I've read the EP3/FN/FD wheel setup thread and still need a bit of confirmation.
I'm looking to get 18x9 + 32 wheels for my FD. Planning to lower to about 1 finger gap on Buddyclub C N+ coilovers soon. Will I run into scrubbing issues with 225/40 kumho KU31 tyres? I'm looking at these tyres because they meet the minimum load rating. I'm aware that I'll need a bit of guard work (front and rear?) but will that completely eliminate scrubbing?
Thanks!
hey lads, when installing a muffler on a fd, do any mods need to be made? (previously on a fd)
http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/o...1/R0011814.jpg
My x-force.. This was on a fd1 with a fd2r rear bumper.. If u want to fit it on fd1 with stock rear bumper, mods need to b made for clean fitment as fd2r muffler openin is more to the right
how about on a standard fd1 bumper with and without a rear lip?
what type of mods are you talking about? like hacking the rear bar or getting longer rubbers so it hangs slightly lower
Mods would b better done on the muffler rather than on the bumper.. The flanges prob need to b relocated and mayb the pipe to b recut.. Muffler shop can do this for ya
Hey guys, I need an option on what will looks nicer. My wheels are 18x8.5+30 & I'm after a new set of tyres.
1. 225/40R18
2. 215/45R18
Which one will have a nicer looking fitment? I'm guessing the 215/45 will have a better stretch?
235/40/18 will look kinda square, 225/40/18 will look slightly stretch , 215/45 stretch for look and comfort ill take 225 40
I have the buddyclub catback on my FD2. I also have the mugen rear lip and its melting it gradually. This is because my exhaust is designed for the US model and thus sits a bit shorter. I'm going to fix it by getting the exhaust cut, extended and then rewelded. Hope this helps in any way.
Heyalan: go for 215/40 IMO.
Finally new shoes & photoshoot today!

Anyone ever thought of replacing the stock horn? I've been meaning to switch to an Accord Horn, but no idea where to source one, nor install it! (Yes I'm a newbie with a FD).
I replaced mine with two Hella Supertones. Sounds just like the Euro horn (maybe even louder).
eBay 'Hella Supertones' and all you have to do is remove the stock horn (behind the bumper) and wire the new ones in, 30-60min job for a novice.
yeah civic horn was shit.... my s2k horn is a lot louder coming from a smaller car makes the fd horn sound like a whisper

get it from them. =)
I had a police siren in my forester lol every time someone pissed me off I'd let off a couple "woot woots" and they'd pull over haha
Yeah cheeky bastard Xenon !
years ago I had some country boys in a Lancruiser station wagon get me to pull over, theyd installed very tiny red and blue flashing lights low down on ther bumper, as I pulled over off the highway they drove past pissing themselves with laughter !!
Anyone fitted bride gias seats to their FD? Allstars is this weekend and I have a pair lying around... Might put them in if its easy.
if you have the rails then i see no problem?
when did you pick up the seats? is it the reps from luke?
Got the seats like a month or 2 ago. They're for the MX5 but considering putting them in just for the weekend. I have no rails, only the universal ones.. And na they're not from Luke, I got the carbon Kevlar ones
genuine or replicas?
if you have universal rails you'll need to do all the welding n shit sack that bro dont bother!
buddyclubs got rails fit on FD.. but not sure if they'll fit on on brides

hey guys just wondering...other than carmate is there any other place to get the fd type r body/conversion kit in sydney?
Ontherun?
Bodykitskingdom, but they're in QLD I think do the type R :-S
yep just checked Bodykitskingdom they have it =)
does the type r bodykit require a custom exhaust tip? im pretty someone talked about it before in this forum but i cant seem to dig out that post...
^think you meant alter the exhaust of the way its hanging. gotta hang it lower or else it might burn the plastic

aww all the crazy fd's are gone now. What exhaust do you have jpark?
not crazy enough :L
J's racing 60RS Titanium Catback Exhaust FD2R (fits FD1) unsure about FD2
why the sell jonny?
^ hey ryan,
thinking of getting dc5R but still unsure atm. i wanna keep it but same time wanna sell it=(
still so much i wanna do to the car >.<
tbh.. do the sale and get the dc5r ahaha. so much more fun driving around a car with a bit more power under the belt, yet still achieving similar fuel consumption
^ get an s2k. dc5r overrated
Going to disagree with you guys, I still absolutely love the look of the integra, not saying the s2000 is good, just personal preference.
Inb4 fn2r vs ep3r
^ both are fugly lol
