Hello, new member recently departed civic type r saw me purchase my black R26! Very happy with the car looks to be some great info on here! cheers!
Cheers, will do do very soon, civic was the fn2 gt, loved it to bits but had it from pretty much new. work has already started on the megane, had it since beginning of December, nothing ridiculous just a few choice mods to get it how I want it. il upload some pics soon!
As promised the r26 and the fn2; R26 has already had alpine bluetooth head unit stalk and display compatible, new plugs and coil packs as well as seat base stickers with more to come. Civic had various subtle mods the favourite of which was miltek full system.
The obvious really, fn2 low down torque not even close to the Meg but to be honest it wasn't far off the Meg straight line as my brother had a 225 for a while and fn2 kept up. Fn2 is massively under rated and there are some very deranged views about their performance, fantastic handling car, brilliant engine and gearbox and better than ep3 to drive in my opinion. I'm a big honda fan but had always fancied an r26! itch scratched! I personally loved over the interior on the fn2 and found the r26 a bit Spartan by comparison. But the r26 seats are awesome and love the lsd something which fn2 lacked! Even with its measly torque. Love them both but because I currently drive one, the r26 gets the nod.
