[thatblackfb6]

Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I recently traded in my fg1 and got a brand new fb6. so far I love it. I have my Coilovers and some HID's coming in tomorrow so I will post updates on all of that for you guys. I'm looking for ward to seeing you guys on the forum. Happy modding!


Old 8th gen



And here's my new 9th gen:

Welcome to the forum!

Both nice cars. What were the biggest things you noticed between the 2 generations?

 

[Michal006]

Nice

 

[thatblackfb6]

definitely the stock body style. I feel like I don't hve to put a lip on it or anything. it's already so aggressive! that's the first thing I noticed of course..

also, the interior is amazing. such a huge step up from the 8th gen.

lastly, the 2.4 liter engine has the perfect amount of power

Tell that to the people on 8thcivic forum

haha if they would only listen...

 

[Michal006]

Yeah they don't. BTW was your 8th Si or R18?

 

[thatblackfb6]

it was an r18 with a supercharger, soooo guess you could say it was an Si hahah

 

[Flightmaster127]

it was an r18

I have both an 8th and a 9th. My 8th has the r18 and its literally night and day between the two cars. I actually avoid driving my 8th at this point because it feels so foreign every time I have to get in it.

 

[thatblackfb6]

haha forreal man. I sold my r18 to a friend and I drove it the other day and it killed me how different it was

 

[Michal006]

BTW what coilovers did you get? Just so you know Honda changed shock mounting points on Si 2014+ so coils made for '12-'13 are not compatible.

 

[thatblackfb6]

yeah which sucks a lot... haha but I got the Godspeed type rs. My friend has them and they actually ride amazing. just as good as my buddy club n+ I had for my 8th gen. Dampening does wonders haha
