Just get some stop tech or AP racing instead, brambos are always overpricedWould love to get the Type R brakes for my HB Sport. those baby brakes look funny in the 18" wheels.
I literally had the same thought when this was posted. I'm thinking it'll be at least 10g's for the parts, some of the pieces are 3-4 grand individually. probably not worth it, unless you have a lot of time and money, right?Based on the parts listed, does anyone know how much it would cost to build a Type R motor to drop in your Civic?
Just wait a few months and buy a write off that you could pick parts off. And sell the parts you don't want ( if any,lol). That why I bought my Lx. Lightest of the bunch, and as soon as I can get my hands on a write off...... well you can imagine. But for now those type R prices are just crazy. Wait and you'll start to see them.show up at auctions all banged up.Based on the parts listed, does anyone know how much it would cost to build a Type R motor to drop in your Civic?
Just FYI those red seatbelt are available in auto upholstery shop for less than $100Mmmmm, red seat belts. Looks like $200 (online price) to get the front pair. Another $100 for the rear seats - though on non-Rs you'd still have the center black one.
The aluminum hood isn't a bad cost at $360... but then add another $230 for the scoop and drain duct. And then paint.
Would be awesome though. A good place to save ~12lbs and keep the turbo engine bay a bit cooler, while staying OEM.
Sweet. That's an aesthetic mod I've had in the back of my head for a while now although I can't decide if red is too much (rather than black with red stitching)Just FYI those red seatbelt are available in auto upholstery shop for less than $100
Although these harnesses I consider put in my car is also available in red, I decided to go with blueSweet. That's an aesthetic mod I've had in the back of my head for a while now although I can't decide if red is too much (rather than black with red stitching)
It's such a serious safety piece that I personally am not going to literally trust my life and those of my occupants to some guy at a local place to get it right. To pay an extra hundred or so for a factory-made perfect quality OEM piece is worth every penny to me in this situation. (Even more so as these would be a gift for my brother.)Just FYI those red seatbelt are available in auto upholstery shop for less than $100
So now we are talking safety, I think my cage + harness will work better than those seat belt come with the carIt's such a serious safety piece that I personally am not going to literally trust my life and those of my occupants to some guy at a local place to get it right.
