- Welcome back to the Dream Automotive channel. This week you join us as we install quite an extensive parts list to the already great Honda Civic FK8 Type R! The upgrades we're making this time around include some aero parts from brands like APR Performance, Racebred and Flow Design. We'll also be installing a HEL Performance oil cooler into the car, preparing the car for any future track days it may embark on. The car is also having an oil change service and some smaller products picked up from our webstore over the last few months, Acuity Bushes, Spoon Sports Oil Cap and J's Racing Tow Hooks to name a few.

Each one of these FK8 build videos just makes my shopping list longer 😀.
We often fit parts to customer cars and then want them for our own!! We feel ya 😅
Dream Automotive at it again 🤛 , another brilliant build Road/Track Monster
Thanks Jason 😎💪
Some great mods going on this one. The HEL oil cooler looks like a really great piece of kit.
It is a great bit of kit! The results are great too, definitely an important upgrade for regular track day drivers 💪Thanks for watching!
I love this build
Looks amazing, doesn't it! 😍😍
That is one amazing build 😊 👏
Very jealous of all those parts!!! hahaha
I'm getting ready to track mine next year, but I'm just sticking with intercooler, rad, brake lines, and fresh wheels and tires.... Maaaaaybe a vented hood if it's in the budget 😁
Sounds like a great set of upgrades to start with, after a few track days you'll definitely be wanting more 👀These cars are addictive!
A vented hood was one of the best things we did on our Time Attack FK8, we saw temps drop ~10℃ instantly! 🤯
The vented Hood definitely makes a difference on the track. The Acuity Reverse Flow radiator Hoses are also worth it for the price. Also recommend checking out the 27😂boost tubes unless you're going with a full intercooler piping kit. The boost tubes are a great middle ground
where can i find silver rear indicator bulbs for my 2018 Civic Sport Hatch? i hate the orange that the OEM bulbs reflect in the tail light
Awesome vid Dream!! Must have to say, I also like the rock / mud guards that their car has fitted! I’m looking for a decent set as well! Any recommendations as the set I’ll buy will be on the car permanently ❤👍👍😃😃😃😃
Hi Darren, Alastair has confirmed that they are RokBlokz mud flaps! 💪Thanks for watching!
@@DreamAutomotive Awesome thank you so so much for finding out for me, it’s greatly appreciated thank you. 👍👍😃😃😃😃
Measure once, drill twice 😅
How did you get the tow hook in the front without needing to trim the front garnish?
Take a look at 16:40 for a close up of the front hook going through the garnish 👍
I wish you were located in Southern California. 🥹 I do like working on my fk8 but I like the care and thought you put into installing parts in this platform.
We're happy to hear that our efforts don't go un-noticed! 😁 Thanks for watching!
What are the wheels attached to the fl9 sir?
The FL5 is rocking a set of our own Spirit-R wheels 🙌Check them out: www.civictyperparts.com/products/dream-automotive-spirit-r-fully-forged-wheels-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-fl5-k20c1-2-0t-2017
You must be some kind of a mechanic, you install everything with such ease , no trouble. I wish you was near, i would ask you to put parts on, or walk me through it.
I just ordered hel's oil cooler. Somewhat curious, does the oil cooler on the hel affect the cooling of the left front brake? According to what you said in the video, the oil cooled air splits half the air. On top of that, I also installed racebred front scoops, is there anything in particular I should be aware of regarding the holes cut in the hel oil cooler?
“splitter” sorry for choosing the weird word😂
Thanks for watching! We've not noticed any reduction in brake cooling when running this kit 🙌 When drilling through the HEL Oil Cooler to make space for the Racebred cables, there's nothing you need to worry about drilling into, it's blank space through there 💪
@@DreamAutomotive Thank you so much!!!
Oh no another usdm
Please, put proper oil in this engine!
What's your suggestion?
why do people run mudflaps on fk8's 🤮ruins the side profile
Each to their own! A lot of UK owners opt for mud flaps to help prevent stone chips down the side of the car 🙌
I agree they're very controversial because it's not a rally car. But i like these ones from RokBlokz because they're rigid and don't flap about.
