Looking good mate, I have abandoned the JDM crew now and am rocking a FN2 Civic Type R GT now... Oh the shame!

The Fn2 is a great car. Imo anyway really good buy at the moment.

Tbh I quite like it. I orignally bought a Touareg after the DC5 to tow my crossers. However that lasted all of 4 days before I got the FN2. It is nowhere near as quick as my DC5 was/felt though but with 2 young uns a better car for my needs.

I too like FN2 type R's (Although I prefer how the EP3 looks, the interior on the FN2 gives me a semi)

They seem to be shockingly cheap too, bottom seems to have dropped out of them. When searching for me EP3 I put in a max of £7000 and a few FN2's crept into this bracket! I could have got a decent one for £8-8500!

Sorta related, Tyres!!

Are you going to 215/40/17's all round Ben?

Mine are stock sized, but Pirelli P Zero'. Im going to need a pair of fronts soon, but they are around £110 each (sure I can get them cheaper, but not much) Am I going to be better off buying 4x 215's as they are alot cheaper?

Looks a nice bit of kit, but how is it meant to be benificial?
Oh and what happened to orange name?
 
Re: JDM Y0 - My new project **** New airbox - PG20 ****

Takes the cold air from the back of the wheel arch, more surface area for intake as well if that makes sense.

I was only covering for Jon while they had the baby

Had the front bumper resprayed, looks nice and fresh now :) Need to get the whole car detailed to get it all looking as clean :) LOL! Will get some better pics soon.

Re: JDM Y0 - My new project **** Front bumper respray :) - PG22 ****

Is the red bit of the ARC the filter? If so, isn't that quite restrictive in that position?

Re: JDM Y0 - My new project **** Front bumper respray :) - PG22 ****

Oh ok. In that case, nice work.
 
Re: JDM Y0 - My new project **** Front bumper respray :) - PG22 ****

They are rated quite well on the type r forum, but only one way to find out by giving it a go :)

nice and rare as well which i like :)

Awesome Ben, love the ARC.

Does it sound as good as the Tegiwa?
 
Re: JDM Y0 - My new project **** Front bumper respray :) - PG22 ****

Agreed :)

Thing with these is, as you know they respond to bolt on mods unlike the clio, so you can go wrong. Im hoping its as good as the tegiwa, if not ill sell it and get something else.

I hope its good as i like it :)
