[Euro] Hondata Update

[stephen8512]

I was looking at going for the reflash as well but I dont think I will after having to wait so long. Im also look at upgrading my Euro to a new one so that is also a big factor of not getting it done.

Does anyone know when the new one will be released?? Im thinking next year right?? Cause by then, the current shape will have been out for 5 years

hey peter long time mate
hahaha who the fk knows when hondata will actually bring it out. they keep saying soon, soon, but eh. ive given up hope a long time ago. hahaha

true,
but what i guess im trying to say is, unless its the euro R, our normal euro's dont see that much benefit compared to the amt of money put in for mods from putting in track worthy mods as compared to other N/A examples, such as type Rs and lotus elise/exige, etc. Even the euro R i dont think is that great a track worthy car....
but each to their own...

sorry, i am refering to the last sentence.
Driven is another case since he is more after power than anything else as I talked to him quite a few times on modifying a Euro. I am not going to sell the car because it is not a worthy track car since I need a four doors car with a bit of comfort for long trip. MAYBE he is not a good tracker and want to something more power and better like EVO which the ECU does everything for the driver .............
i agree that NA is not worth getting performance mod as the money you spend is not going to make big different.

fair enuff
but stock for stock, a euro R vs say, DC2R, DC5R, CTR, the euro R would be the heaviest.

and driven (from what i understand) is only after more power becaue for the amount of mods he paid for his euro, and the power output he got, it wasnt enough to satisfy him, since he felt he could get more bang for buck on a turbo. And i think I would be the same too. imagine spending ALL THAT MONEY on brakes, headers, exhaust etc etc to make a track car out of a euro, only to have ur times marginally reduced. True, it also boils down to the driver of the vehicle, but you'd want to get at least more than just 2 seconds with the mods he had on his euro

and thats why i said, modding wise, performance mods isnt really beneficial if ur a serious tracker. if ur just an occasional tracker for fun then i guess gettin the standard I/H/E with a reflash would benefit you, but not much. and personally i wouldnt do it. id mod it to make it look good

very true
Euro is too heavy indeed but somehow power is not mean it is a good track car. Euro has 120kw with some bolt on is not too bad on track. Maybe it is because the track i went usually using 2-3 gears most of the time which I think power is quite useless unless u drag it or whatever.

hahahaha yeah exactly. veteran as far as modding euro is concerned LOL!
sad fact is though, not everyone has that much dosh dosh, so ur always looking for best bang for buck in terms of mods.

each to their own. do what u want with ur cars. but just letting u know my personal side of things and how i felt. thats all
hey if u wana get the hondata, then go for it i say. get it and give feedback and THEN i guess we can truly say whether this is a worthy mod or not

Yeap! I'm poor and hence DIY FTW! hahahahah.....

True to the word, BFYB... I don't have a money tree in my backyard to pluck money from LOL!

[tron07]

Euro is not meant to be a track car to begin with..... if you want to make a cheap luxury cruiser/family car a track car, you are prone to be spending a lot much more compare to making a track car with a sport/performance car

Im not after a track car at all. Thats why I have a 125cc racing Kart.

Im after that extra 15% that the Euro needs to go from Good to a FKING great daily driver! FTW Yi Ha me hearties!
