Welcome to another Episode of Ross Reviews AU on this weeks Video
We Review this JDM FD2 Honda Civic Type R!!!!! One of the most desirable civic type r cars ever made.. the last true light weight NA high reving type r. With the K20a only making 222hp I honestly can’t express enough my shock on how QUICK! This car actually is… the handling and stability is just other worldly..
This car is FOR SALE! Click the link to visit Vans West.

So much love for this JDM Legend! Honda just got this car so right!

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

knew you would love this car clay! i must say i was impressed having 0 expectations on this car

@Lxzandr 3 года назад

Might not be the fastest car on the straight but when it comes to corners its a whole new level. Still a fun, reliable car at the end of the day.

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

100% man.. the 0-100 shows its not all that impressive but when you see that this car beat a R34 GTR around the Tsukabar circuit by over 4 seconds.. it speaks volumes about how well this car HANDLES!

Proud owner of a 2006 FG2 Si Coupe. Only 114,000k miles. Galaxy Grey. It's no type-r, but the last true K20 V-tech Honda made... Guess you were too busy to add 'Best Motoring' to the description so I'll simply head over there...😅

@phil2948 3 года назад

Great choice of review Ross. Before my FG xr6 turbo I had an EP3 type r. Fantasic engineering goes into these cars.. The MUGEN version is of a piece of brilliance aswell. Tho turning circles are crap, parts can be hard and expensive to get in Aus (e.g $2k for a A/C compressor) and 4 seats not 5. However great fun and great JDM classic and history

Thanks for sharing! i was really impressed with this car n that says a lot as im not a honda fan at all lol.. cant deny they are great cars

I love this! I actually own a FD2 Civic VTi-L. The actual design of the Australian-spec Civic at the time was derived from the Canadian Acura CSX.

Now thats some pure unicorn power goodness right here. I love me a light weight over powered FWD i reckon every petrol head should have at least 1 lane changing fwd in their life time. Can i maybe recommend getting some macas trays for ya next FWD review and showing the world how fun a FWD can be

haha i must do that one day lol agreed tho eh., everyone needs a run in a overpowered fwd rocket :)

@Paul-mq5yn Год назад

Hey Ross - I'd appreciate your opinion on this. I know you are a fan of the Barra engine. Well, I have a FG xr6t that I've had for quite a few years now, I've had it lightly tuned to about 280rwkw and it goes bloody good. Anyway, I have been toying with the idea of selling it and getting a FD2R, Ive had hondas in the past and like the lightweight chuckability of them and of course, the screaming vtec. I've never driven one of these though. Apples and oranges I know but what do you reckon? Go for it or keep the Falcon?

@RossReviewsau Год назад

Totally depends on what you want.. the type r is an amazing machine loads of engineering.. I really enjoyed it but it’s more of a hardcore car.. falcon way more comfortable but on track these Honda’s go hard!

@willtee3640 Год назад

Aiming to get this babe next year, around December 2023 after I sold my honda fit

@RossReviewsau Год назад

Such an impressive car

@AdonisMotivationSuccess 3 года назад

Ross Reviews come on man your killing us. Where is the GTF review? 😂 lol. By the way I got that slight clunk issue after my diff bushes where done in my f6. I think it’s the tail shaft because it always stuffs up the balance when they disconnect from the diff. Hopefully in the next month or two I will get it looked at and let you know if I find out seeing as you had it with your bf.

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

its coming next! got a F6 0-100 video and the GTF review lined up hopefully for next week :) also i think my diff has kick back witch is causing the thud still... diff rebuild in order

yeh im not a big fan of the looks on this car but the driving experience was very impressive.. crazy handling from a FWD car.. easily the best fwd car i've reviewed.. close 2nd would be the Focus RS mk2

Definitely a great type r honda

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

It sure is! i was really impressed

@mjolinir9 3 года назад

Actually no it wasn’t exclusively sold in Japan. It was also officially sold in Malaysia thru our Honda dealers.

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

I did mention this in the review but cut it out as was getting to long 😅 but your right Malaysia was lucky to get a few of these cars from the factory

@mjolinir9 3 года назад

@stephenbell8337 3 года назад

Have you ever considered a comparison of 335i vs fbo 335i? I never realized my granny civic was the last shape. I might put a wing on it🤔

@grantreid3031 3 года назад

A bloke tried to race my falcon turbo ute from an inside lane off the traffic lights in one of these naturally he lost. He may have got scared when the falcon started lighting the tyres up when he was next to me at around 80ks and rising fast. Bang for buck go the falcon turbo.

@RossReviewsau 3 года назад

haha oh man yeh this car is not quick in a straight line.. barra all day.. in the twisties tho this thing would win.. seriously impressive handling.. i was shocked

Amazing bro your 4.0 litre turbo 6 beat a 2.0 4 cylinder NA Gotta be stoked with that 🙄 I don't care how fast they can be, it's a taxi at the end of the day

@1968leg 2 года назад

If you want one of these for a track car then I get it. If the roads in your area are not 100% perfect, this is the most fatiguing car you will ever drive. The roads in the UK are notoriously bad and 10 minutes in this is too much.

@RossReviewsau 2 года назад

you are not wrong! its a very stiff ride.. amazing car if you can live with that tho

@stephenbell8337 3 года назад
