What did you do to your FL5 today?

[TW00Si]

This isn't one I've heard, but I like the look! Those outlets look giant.

It’s loud. If I could do it over again, I’d try the Amuse R1 Titan with the 2 resonator option.

Me and my car have gotten really personal in the last week and a half. Rigid collars feel amazing after the install but I'm not sure what they feel like on the stock suspension setup. I've been running the RSR coilovers with rv6 suspension components for the last month or so.

The turbo and intake combo sound amazing and I wish I had an external mic to mount somewhere to record it. In the mean time the tune is being worked by @Jester04.

Oh I also, destroyed my driver side door like a moron so there's more to do. Luckily resale value is not relevant for me. This thing isn't going anywhere as long as I'm alive.

Ignore the unbolted water lines. This was corrected.

Can we get a sound clip of the turbo w. the AS housing?

I would ask whoever is shipping them to have them double boxed. After waiting 7 months all mine arrived damaged. The boxes do not offer great protection especially if they have to make it through customs.

Shipping insurance is useless too since the boxes do not provide enough spacing.

Unfortunately, I'm out of the car for 2 weeks while the door gets repaired, but here's a few clips from the FK8 forums.

I'll reach out. They're on order from Blackhawk Japan and aren't expected before mid December.

Looks phenomenal, Drew! Did you lower or add spacers as well? I see you're running 275 width tires, any rubbing? I want to go for this same look.

I really enjoyed the stock shifter but wanted to see if the hybrid racing shifter is as good as everyone says it is.

And? Is it?

 

[Dollabillplz]

And? Is it?

Only had it for a day but first impressions are good so far. I have it set up at the default out of box settings and I definitely wouldn't want to set it at any more aggressive than that. It shortens the throws and gate spacing significantly.

Definitely takes more effort to shift and needs getting used to especially finding 5th and 6th gear but the tactile feedback is satisfying when you get it right.

It also gives a nice aesthetic when ran without the shift boot.

Thanks!
After an all day aggressive driving on Skyland Bvld and HW9 I had no issues with rubbing whatsoever.

Wheel spec:
18x9.5 / +45 Lowered on H&R spring. No spacers

That's horrible. My regamasters arrived in cardboard vaults. Hopefully you get new ones ship to you less than 7 months.

The company told me it was not their fault and said they would not replace them. Luckily Wells Fargo agreed with me and I got my money back.

Installed RS-R Best-i Active Coilovers, PRL Rear Motor Mount, and Spoon Rigid Collars Front & Rear. (I call this the trifecta)

What’s next.. Hybrid Racing Short Shifter, Paragon Rotors, Hondata Flashpro & CANFlex Fuel Kit, Varis Front Lip, maybe Apexi Exhaust.

 

[B2FiNiTY]

thoughts on the RSR suspension so far?
