My New FL5 Honda Civic Type-R Gets A Handling Upgrade!

[@MTGBros]

REALLY great install DIY video. everything was so clear and high definition.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you liked it!

[@toast-1984]

Great install video!!! Keep them coming on the FL5!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks! Fun car to work on!

[@boolji]

You made the fronts look really easy!! I don't know why people are removing the axle nuts or having issues with their axles slipping out

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I think they don't understand the best angle to get the strut out of the knuckle. Took me a long time to get it, but hopefully I showed the process well so people don't have to fight it!

[@bigbunnyboi]

Great to see that you’re already a Honda fan! Now buy that new GR Corolla. 😉

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

haha it's a fun car! I did really enjoy the GR Corolla. So maybe one day that could be fun to test out

[@Fedgery007]

I have never heard of a pass through socket or pass through socket wrench before!

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

They are one of the coolest tools! I've had my kit for probably 10 years and they come in handy!

[@robbann8160]

Car looks great, but those mud flaps are terrible in my opinion. Unless you’re going to take it off-road on some dirt rock roads, then yes but I doubt that’s what you’re going to do. And they also cause a big drag at highway speeds. There are way nicer options for rock guards for these cars.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

These were on the car when I bought it. However they will stop rocks from hitting the paint. I don't even notice them to be honest. But I can always change it up

[@hy2473]

removing the axle nut up front will make it go even faster 👍

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

What a great idea! I'll be sure to remove both axle then ;) Can you make a video first so I can follow along?

[@hy2473]

@ kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHSwXoxtmNVka6Msi=NDINm2KdbJZde-uv 6:47 mark.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Not bad, but I did get the passenger side out in about 5 mins with just angling it at the right spot. So to be honest, that's unnecessary to remove the axle nuts.

[@gipsyavenger9829]

Did you have to trim the bump stops as it looks like that is a very conservative drop ?

[@davidd7175]

H&R instructions does not state to do so, tho other spring manufacturers do. It’s one reason I’m considering them.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Nope! Rides perfect and I haven't seen any signs of bottoming out at all. Great kit for these cars for sure and is 100% reversible if you go back to stock

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Great parts! These ship quick from our website!

[@ZWortek]

Curious to see how your alignment comes out in terms of toe, I've seen some posts on the forums showing in and out of spec with the available adjustment.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I talk about alignment in my full review of this setup. It was already pretty off when I bought the car. So it for sure needed it! But we got it dialed in perfectly

[@Night237]

so just to understand, you are jacking the car from the actual jackpoint on the car correct? how did you get under there through the front? just a low profile jack?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I drove up on my wood ramp I made. And there is a steel beam surrounded by a circle cutout in the plastic under trays under the engine. My low profile jack is pretty long and easily makes it there. Rear you pop off the plastic fin to the left of the exhaust tips and thats the rear point.

[@amill1563]

Another youtuber had 20mm front and 25mm back for spacers but it poked out too much for me.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah that'd be a tad aggressive I think. The 15mm front and 20mm in back seems perfect to me

[@Superdimensional]

This car will be gone after a year 😂

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

We’ll see. But I’m having a lot of fun owning it. Just depends on what my needs are for vehicles.

[@Superdimensional]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I have an Integra type S, I picked it up as a “daily” have a bunch of mods needing to go on, already tuned and all the OEM carbon etc. also a 2020 GTR (FBO/E85) and a TLX S (FBO-Tuned) so I get why you picked this, fun car and very different handling characteristics to the cars you’ve had/have now.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh sweet! Great duo for sure!

[@BitcoinTo100K]

For sure he's content creator let's do a few quick reversible mods and call it a build. Then onto the the next hype car in 2025. Endless cycle of debt moving from one car to the next for all eternity

[@carminered]

exhaust next

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Coming soon!

[@diamondsinthedirt489]

❤

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Thanks for checking out the video!

[@davidd7175]

For anyone interested im these springs, TireRack has these on sale for less than $300 shipped. Curious, any reason went with H&R and not Spoon or Eibach? I’m torn between these and Spoon, given the sale price and someone selling Spoons for not much more.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

We've always used H&R on our cars, the quality is top notch and I never seem to have issues with quality. And they drop the car the perfect amount.

[@kobi2002]

Are you going to jailbreak the ecu and do hondata?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

We'll see! This car doesn't seem to crave more power. Very well balanced the way it is

[@amill1563]

How much to "rent a foot?"

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

haha perks of being married I guess

[@kevz34]

More low

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah looks great now!

[@nfspeedy2]

Bro the ride height is measured from the center of the wheel not from the ground

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Much easier to measure off the flat ground surface. Plus it won't make a difference. The measurement is consistent to sho the drop in ride height

[@ilovetodrift7557]

Cut that bumps stops front and rear you will thank me later

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I don't notice anything bottoming out tho

[@ilovetodrift7557]

I noticed it more on comfort but I have a de5 so maybe different?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah could be slightly different

[@nadow1899]

This car looks amazing. Could you make a video showing how it handles in rainy and snowy conditions with winter tires when you get a chance

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

We hardly ever get snow. So that won't happen. So far I haven't driven it in the rain, but I'd assume being front wheel drive it would be pretty good overall

[@BitcoinTo100K]

​@@BrosFOURRSpeed quick fwd is awful in wet try make a pull 😂 you'll get wheel hop and so much spinning until 40 mph
