Ok, I am gonna play Devil's advocate for a moment. I am gettin kinda tired of the FC 2k kit. YEah, it looks cool, yeah it is from the most renowned tuner of rotaries is Japan, sure it is hella expansive so that must mean it is cool, but I am tired of seeing it every 3rd post.

I'm a little unclear on all this... Exactly how much faster does all that fiberglass make it go? Has anybody dyno'd 'em yet?

Or is it a fixed ratio like 10lbs = 1hp?

Oh, well, I'm gonna go check out the new neon lights over in the Civic forum next....

Reducing weight does not increase HP, it only makes it easier for your engine with x amount of HP to get moving. A dyno would tell you nothing 1/4 mile times and trap speeds would be the difference.

I sure hope you don't mean that.

Um, he was being sarcastic. Anyway, those kits are nice, but seeing them over and over and over and over and aover gets a little old.

I guess you will be tired when I post it when I put the FC2000 on my car

Makes the car look nice and I will be the only one in Canada to have one! Plus the dam stock bumper will not fit over my Greddy V-SPL FMIC.

How does bolting on a ****-load of fibre-glass make a car go harder??

Personally, I wouldn't do that to my cars - if I wanted something that looked like that, I'd have BOUGHT something that looked like that!

For one thing those cars are probably in Japan. Another most people don't spend money like that without backing it up. Everybody can say what they want, its all preference. If I could I would have one stock and one like that. I think they are way cool. Nobody around here can say rice. There is nothing like that around here. Not like the same body kit on every honda.

I dont think he was referring to the body kits as making them fast...rather that they are all tuned by RE Amemiya.
