It seems the FD2R being released in Malaysia has the 165kw engine.

I thought maximum readily available RON in Malaysia was 97?

Does this mean Honda Australia are purely cost cutting if they detune? Thoughts?
You should read WHY the FD2R is being released in Malaysia. Then you will understand why they are bringing in a 100RON engine into a country that sells only 97 RON.

Anyway, at the price that it is being sold in Malaysia, the buyers would be rich enough to afford racing fuel (which can be purchased through the many thousands of work/tuning shops) anyway.
