Epic! They respond very well to dropping some weight reduction. 25kg in the rear seats, 10 kg in the boot carpets/plastics, 15kg passenger seat etc. Makes a big difference in all areas.
@@KiwiCarLife Firestone Firehawks what? Just like Ponteza, there are multiple models of Firestone's Firehawk range. I'm guessing it's the Indy 500's which are the same as the Pontenza RE003'S or maybe the Sport 01?
@@KiwiCarLife Nice, they seem like a good street tyres that work well on track days. How do you find them compared to the RE003'S and the PS4's you recently tested? Also not sure if you already knew but Firestone also sell a tyre that is a rebranded Potenza RE003 called the Firehawk Indy 500.
I actually had the chance to drive my cousin's Acura TSX, the American version of this Honda Accord. I liked the handling and it felt stable in the turns. But the biggest issue I had was the gas pedal. It's a different style than the Toyota and Nissan ones that I'm used to. But otherwise, it was great
Looks like aftermarket wings, stickers and other pro mods don't add advertised 5hp per item like internet is saying. Even low gear out of corned didn't do much for him.

Yeah true
Lovely content as always, loved every bit!
Thanks man
Dude you're an insane driver. You were absolutely full send on those corners. Good job. What tyres were you using on track?
Haha dunno about insane, really just demonstrates how well set up the car is out of the box. Just Firestone Firehawks. Nothing special
I'm surprised how well the R went around the track, great fun to watch!
Yeah not bad aye
great video mate, was good leaving you for dead through that last corner though ;)
Hahahh the wagon is mighty
Bloody brilliant driving mate! Was grinning throughout the whole clip!
Thanks man
Great video mate keep it up
Thanks man
Where did you get the Accord Euro R decals on the bottom of the rear passenger doors bro!?!?!?
They came on the car
Repossessed? More like possessed!
Lol
Who is possessed? WHO?

Not being a know it all (as I’m not) but I think the F1 was in Adelaide and Melbourne. Love your vids! 👍🏻
Oh yes
Loving the content recently mate. Highly entertaining whilst also being time conscious. The euro r is a natural around the track!
Cheers mate
Are you selling the EURO R? I saw a ad for a EURO R on trademe exact colour in Wellington with honda wellington work done to it recently.
Yeah I've seen that car. Not mine though
Hey have you done any videos with the 8 gen civic SI? Would be curious how it compares
Would love to but we don't get them in NZ
First, let me say, what an Awesome video!
Is there any build info on the CM2 Tourer?
Thanks and here's the review I did of it:

Glad that you're not going to sell this car :) great video, great car!
Thanks man
That car was built to be tracked..awesome vid, mate!
For sure
are you planning on getting the Lexus up here before it closes? (great driving btw)
Unfortunately not, all the track days are booked
Did you get any lap times? I drove there a few weeks ago and used the TrackAddict app. Highly recommended of you don’t have a lap timer already.
Yeah 1:25 was my fastest
Man you really sending it out there, also how would you compare the euro r towards Erl in terms of track performance
Pretty similar although the LSD is definitely good
What engine does it has the wagon accord? k24a3?
K24A2 have done a video with it
Was the suspension stock when you had this? And how did it handle?
Nah it was on lowering springs and it drove awesome
@@KiwiCarLife Awesome, thanks man.
that was a cracking performance for your euroR, what mods done to the other blue euro R with the mugen rear wing?
Headers exhaust intake tune coilovers Wheels cosmetics heaps
What tyres you running for the track day?
Firestone Firehawks

There was a few but maybe not in my group

Absolutely
@@KiwiCarLife You should get one!
australia new zealand and the uk has the steering wheel on the right side very similar to each other haha
Yes

I guess so
What a monster!
Indeed
It's fast through corners.... And straights too...
Yeah she goes well
that thing is a beast!
Indeed!
That LSD does a great work!
Yes it does!
@@KiwiCarLife there is much difference in handling between euro r and cl9?
@@Esdru221 Not really, but LSD definitely makes a big difference
I swear i saw your euro r at st heliers?
Yeah you probably did haha
@@KiwiCarLife i had a feeling it was your car, so clean in person. went past it quite a few times delivering pizzas lol
10/10
Thanks
Shame to see another race track disappear for good.
Yeahhh
French old chassis still have some gut...
Yes although he did have slick tyres

Better than old Earl?
Yeah the LSD makes all the difference
Now 2005 tsx value will go up bc this video lol
