Installing JDM Coilovers On My Honda Civic Si (Buddy Club Racing Spec Damper)
If I could only do one mod to every car I own for the rest of time, this would be it. Welcome to the first episode of setting my 8th gen up for track use while keeping it dailyable! Most people set this goal for thier cars, but they tend to miss the mark by either overbuilding for the track, or becoming too overwhelmed to even start modifying their car in the first place. Today my goal is to show youthe first step and the absolute best mod you can do to your car for the track (aside from tires haha). I was able to score a set of Buddy Club Race Spec coilovers for my 2008 Honda Civic Si coupe FG2. This is a huge upgrade over the cheap set that was previously on my car. Watch today's video to find out why. I promise its not just because they're more expensive.

I'm going to be bringing you along with me in setting up my 2008 Honda Civic Si 8th gen for the track while keepi...

    Buddyclub are amazing for the money, however for the money unless pre owned they’re a bit too expensive but not really. They’re amazing feel dampers and the 10k and 14k spring rates hold up super well even with daily driving, especially comfy. Def get some camber arms to get it really tuned in

    -2.5 to -2.6 degrees of camber really isn’t enough for these cars for track duty. I started at -2.7 for the first track day I did on my FG2 and it was still a little understeery… next time went to -3.7 and it was way better, everything from turn in to steady state cornering to trying to accelerate through a corner, it helped a lot. I’d recommend going at least -3.5 for the front. still playing with the rear settings, but prolly gonna land somewhere between -1.5 to -2.5

    I've learned after many car flips, that it's typically best to stick to boring stock cars. You have a larger range of people to sell to and less headaches from a previous owners modifications to an enthusiast kind of vehicle. Stock enthusiast vehicles are also ok, closer to stock the better. Also, it's best to stick to automatics when dealing with "commuter" cars. Most people aren't looking for a stick.

    You just need a spacer, +20 is perfect for -3 camber. I’m running +35 with a 15mm spacer. With proper spring rates you probably won’t rub at all even under hard compression.

    Bonnet raisers don’t aid in cooling. The bottom of the screen is a high pressure zone hence the HVAC intake being there. If anything it will impede cooling by increasing pressure in the bay reducing air movement over the radiator.
