Nice video I got mine for 32k with 13 thousand miles. After this video I checked how much I can get for my car 45k it's crazy 🤪, but I am not selling my bab I love this car.
Wallet will be deeper if you k20c4 swap a Si or sport that has a 6spd manual. That’s the route I’m going and I have the tools and tooling to avoid buying over priced parts for the 10th and 11th gen civics and honestly having the skills and investing in tools is the best route to modifying any car!
Bottom line, just do mods you enjoy. There are always going to be haters no matter what you do. I have stock FK8, it's fun. More fun that my heavily modded, 400 whp 2011 STI was by far. Yeah, that's right Subie fanatics. But, but, but no AWD. Yeah, that is included in my assessment. It's a pleasure to drive in almost any circumstance. But I've yet to see a video mention that you can easily spin the tires in 2nd, stock. You'll be way over the speed limit to put down any extra power on the street. Actually, you'll be over the speed limit regularly just by owning it. This car readily and easily goes reckless-OP fast in stock configuration, so you'll never get a sh%$ton more power down unless you track it . But if you just want to drive like a jerk on your commute, like I do, this does a bang up job. And you'll need new tires/wheel. Ain't no free lunch with this car either.
Finding a type r for under 40k with under 10k miles is very hard rn. Got a couple buddies tryna get one but that shit is expensive. I luckily found one w 3k miles for 38k and I love it
@@mrhades6420 my one boy has a fa5 he wants to keep it. And maybe get a type r or Audi rs5 or 3. My other boy jus wants a type r. And my other boy wanna get an s2k and build his rsx
These prices are crazy I got a 19 with 5k miles for 42 a week ago I consider myself lucky finding that compared to what dealers was asking for ones with 5x the miles on em
I just recently became a Type R owner, but I do not plan on doing hot boi sh*t until I've got another reliable daily. For the next coming years, I am planning on keeping it Mild asf. I mainly wanna do the intercooler, wheels and tires, shorter shifter, and an aftermarket shifter. I dont really need many of the other mods simply because I dont plan on Tracking it yet till its paid off haha...
Lol @ coming across Jonnys_honda. You’re not just paying $45k for a well built car, but the FK8 that started for a lot of companies. A piece of history!
I got a remus catback exhaust for $350 intake free greddy intercooler for $250 all used but in great shape springs for $250 with sway bar links hondata $500
I wouldn't say you're way off but...you're not in the same ballpark with real cash spent on this shit. Add at least 25 percent to everything. And consider those who need to hire someone. Also your mild build needs Hondata.
I'm pushing the hp level of my fl5, the parts I'm waiting for I have ordered, and then I'm waiting on parts that need to be released still. But all said and done I'm looking for 550 to 600hp as my end goal. But that's with, intercooler, front pipe, downpipe, titanium inlet pipe kit, Cai box, p700 turbo, hondata flashpro, and as im typing this I'm pieceing together my fuel set up.
Great video, I think the front splitter and aero stuff on the guys FK8 are a bit much. Just my opinion though. I like to leave my cars looking close to stock, but make them crazy fast. Imagine if he had used all that money from the aero on go fast parts. His Type R would definitely be a beast!
If he’s a time attack driver then the aero is definitely needed. I doubt it’s actually designed with fluid dynamics in mind so it’s probably as waste in this case lol
I these year of honda civic i wouldn't change the outside only the inside engine specs and mod specs the car is a beauty as stock or the exterior design
oh the 45k one is jonny's honda. He's been trying to sell that car forever, but tbh the mods he has is pretty good. If someone is looking for a Type R that already has all the basic mods most owners would get and also had the cash then that would be a good deal
I can't wait to get promoted as a shifter at UPS because I really want to upgrade my 2021 forte GT. I want a slightly wide stance with carbon roof,fenders, trunk and hood with a perfect 500whp with AWD👌 I'm guessing it'll cost me around 15 to 20k, IDK lul I'll like your guys guesses on how much It'll cost me.
What about transmission upgrades for that kind of power? 12k miles on mine and I get the 2nd gear grind on occasion so I stopped put mods in until I can get that under control.
Legit question no one can seem to answer. I have the Coated PRL inlet pipe with heat tape. Why would you want to heat wrap it blanket your inlet pipe when you're trying to get heat away from it and keep it cool? I would think the heat wraps and blankets would keep it hot
@@eduardoalfonso8521, I would think it helps for a bit but once it gets super hot I would think the wrap or blanket would at that point keep it hotter longer. Only asking because I'm trying to figure out if I should blanket mine
I’m FBO mild build and I have left the exterior and interior bone stock. Car is to beautiful to tear up lol. Will never sell this car it’s in absolutely blast to drive.
His car is built as fuck. Stock internals are good for around 550 WHP as shown by Redstar automotive. That can handle all the mods he has and you can still throw in a drop in turbo, tuned for e40-e50 he should make about 530WHP
This is why I was never willing to spend 40000 plus for a Type R the cost just does not justify the means or end. Yes its great for what it is right out of the box but to get it to higher levels the cost is way beyond what you would be willing to spend. Instead I just built B16B CRX and for 8500 dollars the thing Rips and has all the looks and performance to go with it old school is lightweight and its hard to beat that. I mean seriously. You cant make 11 seconds that easily but its possible I did and it rips. Sorry guys the prices of today are outrages. Instead of that I bought a Nice TLX Type S sedan that looks and feels the part. Much better spent 60000 grand in my opinion. To each there own. This is where the price points start to really matter. For that money we want alot of more in it. Luxury and performance reliability. That cost. To be fast is not cheap to be fast and Reliable is def going to cost you arm and a leg. Think 911 Turbo or NSX not cheap folks and you want something that last.
hello, sorry for the question. I have a hyundai genesis 2.0 automatic and I want to add more power, for example 400hp, how much money do you think I can get to have that power?
With $40K, the used Porsche 987.2 Cayman S is a better option in opinion as the Porsche has a much superior chassis with being mid-engine and with the best sounding flat 6 engine ever.
@@maperformance go with Jon Vega from pherable. First tuned my R at exactly 1k miles with his tune, and he’s sent me an updated tune with every bolt on.(had his tune on my si for about 40k miles)
