everyone sleeps on R18 love how you listed the mods for a great possible build mine is an automatic and i have half this stuff in runs great along with hondata
@@GapSauceMafiaI got a 2008 with a manual. One big thing is if you do get it, get a LSD kit and swap it in. It will make you grip up a lot more when going around corners and on loose surfaces
@@TrenMonster I haven’t done it yet. But I’ve seen comparison videos and was basically just quoting them lmao. I do track my car and I will say a lsd would be really nice because I’m always spinning the inner wheel
Believe it or not there are people like myself who want to keep the R18 engine automatic and not do a manual swap and k swap. We want to push the platform it came on. We all know about the k series and want to see what we can get from the R18.
I heard you can get a r20 bottom engine and keep r18 top for big power currently looking into it living in England we have a lot of second hand r20 engines
875 for used trans? i just got great deal then 700 for a 08 5spd whole car blown head gasket straight body. already have one but couldnt pass up great deal those parts come in handy
@@zioidkvodsi got one, i have short ram/exhaust all DC sport, 2.5 from cat. Hondata worth it? I live in cali, so intake manifold isnt an option, i could get away with catless downpipe in between smogs.. but manifold, not happening 😔
Probably almost 400hp depends on the turbo and items. but if the r18 engine stock just bolt on turbo , ecu hondata, after dyno u will get 250+ hp easily
@@riku-tempestamv17what would you estimate for hp if I do all bolt on items and keep it naturally aspirated? Going for longevity here just as much as performance.
Good shit man. You don't see much content on these cars besides people with unlimited budgets telling you it's easy to do $3000 mods

Nice I got a 2012 Honda civic lx coupe with the r18 automatic completely stock but I want to do a manual conversion on it possibly

Mind dropping what all you did, and how much it affected your car?

@@MartinesMotorsports I just learned that the k20 lsd should work but there’s a kit for it and it’s like 350 which isn’t bad at all
Guys to be honest all you spend on mods to make the R18 good like 3k or little more just make a swap to K20 or K24
Yes also more aftermarket parts support
Is there a list anywhere for the parts needed for the swap?
I know there's a list on vtec academy however its hard to locate everything plus I seen another vid of a dude do it without the subframe

Update on this?
Good stuff bro my engine cracked which I’m getting a new motor coming in may add some mods to it while I have it on my engine stand 💯🙏🏻🔥
I needed this 🎉
Just for a little more quick drive
Is a Tune worth money when only an airfilter kit and 200cell cactlysator is installed ?
Atuna is not required if you're just swapping out the air filter
Great video man. R18 owners unite!😂

Have you done anything to yours or is this hyperthetical. Cause your not wrong but some details are off .
This is a dumb question but I have a 2012. Does it not matter? As long as it’s an r18 engine?
I have a 2012 as well but mine says R18Z1 on the engine block
the upgrades depend, but most r18a1 parts are interchangeable with r18z1 and r20a parts
@@zioidkvods thank you brother
@@mightyjoe5522 no problem, here for any r18 questions you may have 👍

Any update bro?
Wait how much is a Type R in the USA?. Here in the UK we can get them for £3.000 all day long.
cant get an 8th gen type r in the u.s to my knowledge, the si is also like 7k usd for any that are half decent
Thanks
Show us your car bro 🔥🔥🫡
Bro you don’t need to do all that 😂😂
How much horsepower after its done
Probably almost 400hp depends on the turbo and items. but if the r18 engine stock just bolt on turbo , ecu hondata, after dyno u will get 250+ hp easily
Not only that the r18 holds boost like a mofo too but people don’t talk bout it
