That is a great price, I didn't realise you had the FRS on your car, or I'd have asked for a demo yesterday.

It's well worth it Tony. It feels totally different when it's done to the original set-up.
I was a bit sceptical about it at first, but it's fantastic.

It gets some great reviews, and ABP is only up the road from me

I'm really tempted now.

Btw its 3 hours work. So don't make too many plans. I'm so glad I turned up an hour earlier than planned cause I left later than expected. Well worth it

Can not understand why you all say it takes hours i had mine done on saturday they started work at 9am when it opened and i was sat in my car driving away at 10:20am and that included fast road setup, oil and filter change. This is starting to sound very funny indeed. Any explanations please. The car still feels fantastic though and they even gave me my old bolts back.

Hmmm thats strange, because even Dave says it takes roughly 3 hours for FRS to be done. I know that I arrived at 12.40pm and didn't leave till just before 5pm and the exhaust was very quick.

All rather confusing. Think Dave was off on Holiday last week cause I sent a couple of emails i'm awaiting a reply on. I'm sure he will know

I have to agree, it is a top mod, and well worth it, you will feel the difference immediately.
Living so close to ABP, Tony, it is doubly cost-effective for you.
It took them about 2 hours to do mine, they are knowledgeable guys in FN2 matters, and the coffee is free.

TDI North at Warrington can do the same FRS set-up for a similar price. Again, people that have worked on my car, and that i can recommend.

Its Fast Road Set-up. Basically its setting the geometry spec of the car to either what according to Honda it should have been or to a better spec for a better handling car with more feel through the steering wheel.

Not sure if you've gone back a few pages, but there are a few reviews kicking about.

Its not too far from Manchester. All depends on if your talking about Manchester in general or if your planning on a trip to Manchester then to ABP and want to know the distance?

Do you know in someone in France can do this mod ?
I've not seen anything on French forums about this, and if camber is not adjustable it is in itself an issue from my point of view.

I dont know any specialist in France that has used our specifications, but if you can find a good garage with the correct equipment and knowledge then they can do it.

The average FN2 takes 2 to 3 hours. Sometime if we have two technicians fitting the camber adjusters its usually quicker, but cant guarantee we can do this all the time for you sorry.
