i dont think theyare the same...we lined up some evo 6 brembo and my fd2 pads and it wasnt the same...whenever ive bought pads for the front they have nissan 350z on the label :)
anythings possible but no idea how it would be done havent even looked at what the FK engine is like..
You can get turbo kits produced for the FA5 in america which should be a pretty much bolt on kit...
Im suprised you rub, what size tyre are you running?
I run 225/40's on my 18x8.5 et35 lowered on stock shocks and spoon springs and i have no rubbing issues at all...
Im at 78k and i believe its on the standard clutch still...
did the good old pull away in 5th/6th the other day and it was fine...if the clutch is on the way out it will slip and you wont pull away in a high gear from stationary....
honda wont supply a letter ive already asked...because the fd2 wasnt tested to uk standards they wont back up their 225g/km stated in their brochure and technical documents as it was sold only in japan...its a joke really...ive heard you could get an SVA test done with the correct model/car...
i have another driveby video i will upload in a bit to instagram...its pretty droney on startup but like 20 maybe even 30 at a push seconds later its pretty silent...just unfortunate at the rev range of a cold startup it drones a bit but ive heard the bung can really help with that...
i will...
i have a few other videos on my instagram but they arent that great...i can probably go out and get another one or two with my brother at some point though...
but the spoon n1 with standard oem mid section and a decat does the treat i think! its not too loud but its definitely loud enough!
I have a spoon n1 rearbox and de-cat. I have kept the standard midpipe and i think its lovely!
if this link works its a quick video from the other day...

also i like the look of the n1 really discrete as it hasnt got a massive tail pipe...

heres a link to their small review thought i would dig it out quickly :)
i read the small review someone from heavysetuk did (i think it was heavyset) they said the economy was awful...even driving like a granny it was around 17mpg...i think the main selling point (to me anyway) of a honda is the economic side for my every day driving, yet i can let vtec rip and...
they are a lovely set of wheels!
problem is with the extended studs your looking at having to replace the wheel bearings at the same time...so a bit of a costly job just to fit some extended studs...but i agree an et55 wheel depending on what width you will really struggle to get it to fit...
i got one for a bit cheaper when i bought some other parts...didnt notice any difference on a standard engine etc...i dont believe they can be cleaned like the k&n filters either...
yep they need a refurb though...had a few scuffs and curbing when i bought them and i have contributed...would love to go bronze with them!
Standard shocks and spoon progressive springs :) sensible drop really!
