  1. Lights (8G)
    Hi all. New car and I just noticed my lights are flickering and at a low angle so I’m looking to change them. I think the previous owner has modded them from standard(?) and I’m not sure how best to change them. Has anyone seen this before. Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers.
  2. Items wanted
    Hi I’m new here and wanting to buy an FN2 Type R, I’m hoping the forums would be a better place to buy a looked after example. I’m located in Norfolk, and was wondering is anyone from here had one for sale? I’ve got a budget around 3.5k I’m not too fussed on what colour, but not wanting...
  3. Wheels, Tyres, Suspension and Brakes (8G)
    Hi Guys, I've been lurking for a while and thankfully made the jump and bought a 2010 FN2 type R, and 0 regrets - it's so fun to drive as my daily. I've noticed some issues with braking as the brakes heat up where the car starts to shake which I've read are signs of failing discs. The car has...
  4. Bugs, faults and irritations (8G)
    My FN2 Type-R got hit by a teen driver and I need to find parts to fix this mess. Original parts for the Type-R are super expensive and hard to come by in my country. Right now I have some hints, mainly from 5door to Type-R conversions here on Civinfo (really thanks for that). The main area of...

    Hello, hope all is well. Moving to my first Type R soon from my 1.8 Type S. Decided to treat myself to a new car for my 30th. Needing some advice on exhaust options before going for a remap. Currently the car has a direnza intake, 4-2-1 manifold and ecutek stage2 and don't think it's remapped...

  8. 8G Type R
    Hello all! Been trawling through forums for days now and still haven't found any success stories so I'm hoping one does exist.

  9. General Discussion (8G)
    Hi, I've just spent 3 months removing all the Paint,rust and seam sealant on the rear of the car. Then I undersealed and also replacing the trailing arm. Finally I have gotten round to checking the inner sill/stiffener, and found on the driver's side, they have rust holes from wheel to wheel and...
  10. Engines and Transmission (8G)
    Hello, I was on a trackday with my FN2 and after every session my oil press meter shows idle pressure with oil temp 120°C (250°F) between 0,4-0,7 bar (6-10 psi) for circa one minute. After oil cools down under 110°C (230°F) it goes up to 1,2-1,8 bar (17-26 psi). No dash warning light comes on...

  12. 8G Type R
    Hi all, First time poster here looking to pick up an FN2. I've found a cheap, 115k miler near me, haven't been to see it in person yet but MOT history looks reasonable and the dealer has sent me a video walk around. Haven't been able to check service history yet. My concern is the engine...
  13. Buying, Dealers and Servicing
    Hi all, Looking to get rid of my ford ecoboost nightmare and get something a bit more fun. The older type R's seem very affordable (£4000 - £6000 range) and reliable for their age, but obviously come with a lot of miles on them (100k+). Although I've read that these cars can go for 200k - 300k...

    Hello, I have made an account here just to help my friend around the FN2 Type R he is looking to get. I myself am not a stranger when it comes to Type R Civics but even I don’t know everything and I am not afraid to ask for someone else’s opinion and ask for help. To keep it simple, I have...

    Hi guys anyone know someone who could install my double din and fascia kit for my fn2? Got a quote of £120 from a car audio store which is a bit steep.
  20. 8G Type R
    Hi guys, was thinking of getting a Pioneer double din for my Fn2 Type R. I was going to purchase the connect 2 wires including patch lead. I have read that if wired correctly you still get function from steering wheel controls. Just wanted to know if theres any way of wiring to keep the dash...
