Hey man I know you said that the upgraded FIGS LCA helps with the fast wear in the inside of the tire, but does it make the car feel more planted going around a corner? @Huang bros

[@thehuangbros]

@@jamescates6005 Yeap thats its primary benefit. The tire saving is secondary benefit. It prevents movement in the #2 bushing which means faster response time of the action so resulting in more precise steering.

[@2ZZGE100]

It is a high performance sports coupe so I never experienced the "driving like a boat" part. The stock suspension on my RCF carbon/TVD is pretty stiff. It really corners flat especially with much superior tires than the one it came with (Pilot Super Sport, which were too soft for my liking). I switched out the tires for PS4S Extra Load and the feedback and sidewall stiffness got dramatically better. Anyway, cheers!

[@thehuangbros]

Ive driven on the stock struts a couple thousand miles and I definitely enjoyed itnas what it was but adding a set of coilovers just absolutely transformed the feel of the car to something great.

[@2ZZGE100]

@@thehuangbros Yeah, I understand that. There is room to make it better. I just could not relate to the body roll as my RCF (maybe, because it is still almost brand new with less than 10,000 miles and the suspension is fresh), it is very stiff and corners pretty flat even when I take turns at 65+ mph. Yeah, I know the coil over would make it more aggressive. No doubt, but I really love the stock suspension as to how sporty it feels without being too harsh. Cheers!

[@davidwade7681]

@@2ZZGE100 ya mine feels the same nothing like a boat

[@2ZZGE100]

@@davidwade7681 Yeah, I modified cars for decades doing coilovers etc, but i feel RCF comes from factory with a great suspension and chassis setup that I won't touch the suspension. It feels like the perfect balance between street drivability and track capabilities without being harsh. TVD is also a lot of fun. I agree with other points like exhaust and bushings etc, but the suspension makes me very happy. Only did spacers for better stance and sticky and aggressive tires since I hated the OEM tires.

[@Tackleberry117]

I'll be the weirdo to say i like the stock infotainment system. Personally i can't stand touch screens in cars and I've gotten quite comfortable with the remote touch. The screen isn't the best but it does a good job of showing what i actually want to see and staying out of the way.

[@thehuangbros]

I would have been okay with it too if it came that way but I found the touch feature for carplay very quick and straight to what I need it for.

I don't mind the stock infotainment, but I guess I'm the rare person that doesn't really care about tech. The lil joystick in the gsf is annoying tho, it sticks a lot.

[@RS3NDIT]

tbh i'm a big fan of audi setups with teh scroll wheel. Find touchscreens super distracting, especially when they're as far away as the screen is in this car. Used the touch pad briefly during a test drive and i found it pretty intuitive but it's probably because I'm used to not having that touchscreen utility in my audi anyways

@@Mall_Crawling_X divorced spring set up is where the rear spring is separate of the strut. It came out of factory this way but converting it to true rear coilovers gives it better performance. Yeah the rcf is one of the best cars ive ever owned especially with how easy maintenance is

[@LexVVTiS300]

These mods are nice. Where you get that screen upgrade and diffuser tho?? Here's my list thats a bit more performance focused: 1. Exhaust 2. Coilovers 3. RR Racing Race steering bushings. 4. RR Racing lightweight lithium battery. Removes over 30lbs off the front axle. 5. RR Racing rotors. Reduces rotational weight. 6. RR Racing AOS 7. lighter wheels 8. carbon fiber hood. A little more than 5 but they all 100% necessary

[@thehuangbros]

Light wheels always.

[@geo211321]

I do actually like the original little joystick for the screen, for a few reasons: - The joystick, to me when I'm sitting down, is just like a mouse for a computer. - The screen stays looking amazing, because my finger smudges aren't on it. - It's basic. Android Auto would be nice, but it's surely not a necessity for me. - The screen is so damn far away, I couldn't imagine reaching that far from where I sit.

Install a MUCH beefier front anti away bar. Leave the rear stock. Two way adjustable coilovers are usually much more expensive. Buy them! Adjust them for performance in the street. Leave that setting even for the track if you want. ALL the mods in this video make perfect sense. NEVER use lowering springs,. They suck. Pay for good coilovers. Oil separator? Yes!

Oil separator is a good mod. One day ill do 2 way coilovers. Not sure if there are thicker front sway bars unless you know of one.

Thanks for the great informative vid Barry 💪🏽. In regards to inner tire wear, suspension and handling do the figs or rr usrs lca bushings help front or inner tire wear ? I was under the understanding the lca bushings help front tire inner wear and the rr racing rear spc camber arm helps rear tires inner wear ? Do I have this correct ? Also if I wanted to go with a mild drop (maybe an inch or inch and half) with the rr coilovers would that leave me bottoming out on hills , exiting parking garages, or speed bumps ?

I was 265/30 but it was a little too much stretch for me but I do have a little rub when I turn up front. Im considering removing my liner but it honestly has not bothered me so I left it loose for it to flex.

Does the mods improve the 0-60 and quarter mile lap time? How about track times? Really appreciate your shared inputs. Thanks

[@thehuangbros]

The mods I listed wont help the RCF on a 1/4mile. Car is too heavy. Losing car weight will improve 1/4mi. An exhaust wont do much for a 1/4 mile in this heavy car. Circuit track times, these parts will help lower. But at the end its all driver skills and knowing the correct lines.

There is some debate whether the plastic hood vent cover (bottom side of hood) should be removed (or not) to achieve intended aerodynamic performance. Have you done any testing? The cover appears to be designed to catch water and debris like pine needles. Is that the purpose? Some guys have removed them, claiming the engine runs cooler or air flows over the car better.

Hi Thomas. That is a good eye you have there. These 20in Titan7s are great. They feel light and I noticed an increase in acceleration compared to stock 19inches. No BS. Cornering is better since it doesn't feel as heavy to turn since these are like 21.7 lbs compared to the 28lbs stocks. They are worth it. Plus they look great. I want RR Racing Rotors too. Girodiscs for the win.

Thoughts on aftermarket exterior parts? Do you think they're worth it? E.g. NOVEL CF side fender (which you have), hood vortex, CF C-west wing?, CF mirror caps etc...

I can make a video about that too since I have multiple exterior pieces as well. My thoughts right off the bat however is that the artisan spirit fender vents and rowen rear bumper extensions are needed to highlight the body lines of the car.

[@thehuangbros]

Thanks. This list was more so a recommendation as to what parts I would recommend changing out first. Big difference. I have another video about all the different suspensions types I track on. I track on swift springs and stocks, then tein monosport and now cks. Coilovers in general just helped with less body roll and gave me that “planted” feeling. I don’t think there is a screen for the GSF yet. Am I right? Do you guys have the updated infotainment?

[@Dre01SS]

@@thehuangbros yeah I been getting a substantial amount of body roll, trying to plant the car better. Will have to check video on the CKS, on the fence between them and the RR R&T V2 since the V1 is not sold anymore.

[@lakay99]

Barry, how rough is the ride with the Figs bushings? I had the RR racing (street version) and didn't like about the ride quality, and most of all the maintenance of the bushings. Hate re-lubing it every 6 months(or less). I'm looking forward on getting the new version of RR's bushing, the race version, which is like the one you have (enclosed and maintenance free). I would probably can deal with the ride roughness if I don't need to take it out twice(or more) a year. I have the RCF/GSF bushings and your truly correct - car is now back to boat ride.

[@thehuangbros]

Haha im glad someone agrees with me about the boat feel. But um I had rr racing usrs before the figs solids. They say solids you feel it more because there is no polyurethane. I didnt feel any of the increased nvh but maybe its because I have x2 8in subs in the trunk. I had a good experience with usrs i just changed to figs solid precision bearings to save the tires more. But it also depends on what suspension you have that will absorb the road harshness since its the struts/shocks that receives the road info and it has sends the info back to the inside cabin. My experience with nvh tolerance will most likely be higher than yours but overall i like the way usrs or figs solids feel, no nvh really.

[@rolandogonzalez1374]

Quick question: I'm a suspension virgin and got a used 17 RCF last year with leaks in the front and rear struts. I daily drive the car and don't intend on taking it to the track but I'm thinking of replacing them on a tight budget. I looked at the BC DS Racing coilovers which are roughly $300 cheaper than the RR- Racing ones do you think it's worth the extra $$? Also for a casual driver like myself who loves ride quality over racing performance, do you think the bearing bushing is worth it?

2015 tvd model as well. What do you think about weight reduction? I won't remove interiors cause that makes experience from daily uses worse, and won't go for cf hood as it seems quite dangerous. What i can think of right now is to swap for lighter battery, rims and exhaust(maybe novel header+exhaust, nice sound but quite expensive). Thx

[@thehuangbros]

The benefits of weight reduction is greater than adding power mods like Intake Header Exhaust believe it or not. Weight reduction will allow our v8s to really shine as proven or shown in one of my videos about the track built ISF by illwillem on ig who took off around 700lbs. I think even 100lbs in weight reduction will get you to be faster than any other rcf with an intake and exhaust. The first weight reduction areas to target is the unsprung weight so the rims, lug nuts, brake calipers, brake rotors, suspension struts/shocks.

[@thehuangbros]

They both do but the trackpad is 70% as responsive

[@Mrnathanluis]

hi barry im planning to upgrade my exhaust what do you think about borla vs invidia q 300 just want something more agressive but not to the sound of mustang or challenger i had bad experieniece with tanabe medallion touring axle back very loud drone sound at 3000 rpm

[@thehuangbros]

Hey what sup Ian. Ive heard Borla in person and its a really good note. Have you heard muffler/resonator deleted exhausts yet? Borla is like a nice pitch of that. Invidia gives it a nice tone but I have not heard it in a rcf but have heard it in a RC350 and it sounds really good. However that is comparing V8 to V6. I think invidia still keeps the exhaust note close to JDM. I dislike sounding like a mustang/challenger too. For drone wise, Ive never sat in the car in these so I wouldnt be able to comment on the drone.

[@jordanthunder9622]

Invidia sounds like a full on f1 car

nice car, have you tried having the Geo set up, and also different settings ?

[@mylexrcfupgrades1222]

Can you do or do you have a video just on your exhaust system?

[@thehuangbros]

My exhaust is the Ark Performance exhaust. I have a comparison video of Ark Performance resonated vs Non resonated. If that isnt enough, I can make a super detailed video about that exhaust for you and those curious about it.

[@mylexrcfupgrades1222]

Thanks! I'll check that out and let you know! I'm working on your five things to upgrade list! Thanks Bro!

Im sure there are some intakes that will do good. The effect will probably be evident in a drag race vs a quick reaction

What year is it?

[@tubedude92]

how about the blue crossbars underneath the hood? What brand and type are those?

[@thehuangbros]

That is a chassis brace made by RR Racing. Only they sell since they make it. Not really needed unless you do hard cornering activities with the car. Unless you want it for show.

[@mylexrcfupgrades1222]

Getting ready to buy a RC F next week. It does not have the three tier LED headlights. Do you know how to change them out?

[@thehuangbros]

Hi Rico. My advice is to get a rcf with 3LED instead of 2LED. I tried to convert before when i had a rc350 and you have to change out the whole engine wiring harness to be able to plug in the modules that goes under the 3LED which no one saw before

[@mylexrcfupgrades1222]

Thanks Barry. Good price on the RC F that I can't pass on and only 21K miles for a 2016. Thanks for the follow up.

Hi bro, have you ever tried the high air flow engine filter like K&N? I just bought and installed mine on my f but after that I heard a lot of people said they will cause some damage to the engine. How do you think

[@thehuangbros]

The oiled filter is the one you have to avoid. The oil from the filter will get sucked in overtime and overtime will get caught on the MAF sensor giving it incorrect readings. Dry filter is what everyone recommends.

[@ys1606]

@@thehuangbros thanks for replying bro. I have already ordered an oem filter from amazon.

[@thehuangbros]

@@ys1606 nothing wrong with oem filter but a kn or aFe dry filter or other brands like toms or apexi can get you more air flow and resusable

[@Danoie67]

@@thehuangbros You can just clean the MAF every Oil change

Does your car have stop and go adaptive cruise? How do the brakes hold up on track?

[@thehuangbros]

It does have dynamic radar cruise control. I can set it to 3 different distance settings from car in front of me. It is worth it in my opinion. I had an RCF before with no dynamic and it kinda sucked because I had to always footbrake and at that point had to restart Cruise Control all over again. My brakes are stock oem rotors. I have Stoptech stainless steel lines, Motul RBF 600 fluid, and Endless MX72 brake pads. It stops very good and no fade on track. I have a track video up that I posted 3 days ago that you can check out if you want to see braking.

[@mdw1000]

@@thehuangbros we have an accord hybrid with ACC as our practical car and a six speed manual NC as our fun car. After experiencing ACC with full stop and go capability, I don’t think I will never get another car without it. When it comes time to replace the Miata, I want a sporty car with more power, ACC, reliability, and the ability to do occasional track stuff. The ACC requirement shortens the list significantly.

[@thehuangbros]

@@mdw1000 oh most definitely. im same boat, after experiencing it, I gotta have ACC. Its just a real "luxury" feature. Are you considering an RCF?
