Welcome GoFN2Go!

Any options fitted or mods planned?

GOFN2GO · 20th October 2007, 12:13

No options fitted.
I'm planning to put lsd, exhaust system, rims just to list a few things in mind.
What sort of exhaust have you guys fitted in this car over there?

Hi GoFN2go

Most of the development on performance tuning in the UK seems to be done by ABP Motorsport. See links below:

Who is offering an LSD? - I haven't seen that one advertised in the UK

Woette · 21st October 2007, 10:26

Nice set of cars you have

That silvia still looks great i think and love those rims.
And enjoy your milano red type-R, you have chosen the best color

GOFN2GO · 21st October 2007, 15:59

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!!
My friend's successfully fitted a Quaive lsd on his fn2 yesterday.

FWH · 21st October 2007, 16:04

Was that BMW with same reg as the Civic yours?

GOFN2GO · 21st October 2007, 16:07

It was dad's old car.
He sold it to get the cooper S for my bro to drive.
Not enough parking at the flats, so had to let it go.
Once I move out He'd probli get another car for himself.
Any suggestions? hehe kinda confused atm

Honda Legend?
The design is a few years old - but quite nice and understated.
4WD useful in my part of the world - and very rare here!

BTW - did he like the BMW? Any problems with it?

GOFN2GO · 21st October 2007, 16:12

Yeah I've heard a lot of good stuff about the legend.
Some *** say it's as good as the S class and the like

GOFN2GO · 22nd October 2007, 08:00

Yea the bmw was good.
I think it's more suited for long journeys rather than city cruises, too big for that purpose (parking and all that isnt so convenient).
Other than that its comfy so no complaints.
One major problem was that it's more and more expensive to maintain as it grows older (parts are very expensive)
