Is the rear end of your FK2 feeling a bit tired, noisy, or loose? 🛠️👇

The Honda Civic Type R FK2 is an absolute weapon, but as these cars age, the rear axle assembly takes a serious beating from road grime, salt, and general wear. Rust builds up, factory rubber bushings perish, and that sharp, predictable handling you love slowly fades away.

Instead of replacing individual parts one by one as they fail, we’ve put together the ultimate FK2 Rear Axle Overhaul Package to bring your CTR back to showroom standard (or better!).

What’s included in the Dream overhaul?

Full Strip-Down & Fresh Powder Coat: We drop the entire rear axle, strip it bare, and media-blast away all corrosion before applying a durable, high-gloss powder coat to protect it for years to come.

Premium Bushing Upgrades: Out with the tired OEM rubber, in with upgraded bushings to restore structural rigidity and razor-sharp handling response.

Laser Wheel Alignment: Finished off with a precision alignment in our workshop to make sure your Type R tracks perfectly straight and hooks up flawlessly in the corners.

Don’t let a crusty, worn-out rear end ruin your driving experience. Invest in your FK2’s longevity and get that factory-fresh handling back. 🏁

Now THAT is what we call dedication. 🚗💨

This customer drove all the way from Luxembourg to the UK just to get the treatment! We made sure the road trip was 100% worth it with a massive round of premium hardware upgrades before hitting the rollers. 📈

The Recipe for Power:

Breathing: Eventuri Carbon Turbo Tube & Intake + RV6 Downpipe

Cooling & Sound: Samco Hoses & the iconic HKS SQV IV blow-off valve

Engine Health: Radium Dual Catch Cans & PRL Header Tank

Once the wrenching was done, it was time for the magic. We strapped it down to the dyno for a custom ECU calibration by the masters at RaceCal using the Hondata FlashPro. 💻🔥

Turn your volume UP for that Dyno pull! 🔊 Safe travels back to Luxembourg with all that extra power! 🇱🇺🤝🇬🇧

This might be the wildest Integra Type S build on earth. 🏎️💨

is heading to the clouds. Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) has spent months developing a dedicated Integra Type S race car with one hyper-focused mission: taming the Pikes Peak Hill Climb to secure the ultimate FWD record.

With motorsport icon locked into the driver's seat, this isn't just a demonstration run—it's a calculated, high-altitude assault on automotive history.

🏁 Fresh upgrade for the Sportline. 🏁

Is this perfect OEM+ upgrade? We fitted Mugen Wind Visors to the Championship White FK8 Sportline Edition, and the vibe is immaculate 👌

The Sportline is all about that subtle, stealthier look, and these smoked acrylic visors complement the sleeker low-profile wing perfectly. Not only do they look incredibly sharp, but they’re also functional—cutting down wind noise and letting you crack the window in the rain without getting soaked.

🔧 FK2 Civic Type R: Ultimate Chassis & Brake Refresh 🔧
This FK2 hit the workshop to dial out chassis slop and lock down the braking system. Here is the transformation breakdown:

Handling: Fitted a comprehensive range of Powerflex Poly Bushes to eliminate suspension flex and sharpen turn-in response.

Chassis: Installed Spoon Sports Rigid Collars to perfectly align the subframe, removing micro-movements for a totally locked-in feel.

Brakes: Upgraded to Dream Stainless Steel Brake Lines paired with Motul RBF 600 fluid for a firm, fade-free pedal that handles track-level heat.

The result? Crisp steering, zero play, and absolute confidence on the anchors. 🚀

The Ultimate FL5 Conundrum: What Wheels Match Championship White? 🏎️⚪
It’s no secret that Championship White is the best-selling colour for the FL5 Civic Type R. It’s Honda heritage wrapped in a modern masterpiece. But when it comes to upgrading to the legendary Volk Racing TE37, the real debate begins.

A blank canvas deserves the perfect contrast, so we have to ask... which route are you taking?

Bronze: The classic JDM heritage look. Unbeatable contrast.

Blast Bronze / Gloss Black: Aggressive, stealthy, and modern.

Pressed Graphite / Shining Silver: Clean, OEM+, and sophisticated.

Let’s settle this once and for all in the comments. Are you going Bronze, Black, or Silver? 👇

Ready to take your FK8 to the track? 🏎️💨

If you’re pushing your Honda Civic Type R FK8 to its limits, heat soak is the ultimate enemy. That’s why we’ve got the ultimate solution: the WAGNERTUNING High-Performance Intercooler.

This isn't just an upgrade; it's a total game-changer for your intake temps. Wagner has engineered a lightweight Tube-Fin competition core designed specifically to keep your CTR breathing ice-cold air, even under intense racing conditions.

📊 The OEM vs. WAGNERTUNING Breakdown:
Frontal Surface Area: A massive 91% increase over stock, maximizing ambient airflow.

Core Volume: An incredible 140% increase (jumping from the stock 6.2L to a whopping 12.5L of charge-air volume!).

Flow Optimization: CAD-designed and CFD-simulated cast aluminum end tanks, featuring an internal air baffle to ensure perfectly uniform air distribution with minimal backpressure.

🔧 Why Choose Wagner for your FK8?
Track Ready: The specialized air baffle ensures that while your intercooler gets maximum cooling, your radiator still gets plenty of airflow to keep engine temps in check.

Built to Last: Finished in a protective, anti-corrosion powder coating that actually enhances heat conduction.

Plug & Play: No headache required. It directly replaces your OEM unit for a straightforward installation.

Give your Type R the massive performance bump and cooling efficiency it deserves.

This stunning FK8 Type R just rolled into Dream HQ, sporting a fresh, head-turning Mugen-themed livery. But we weren’t just admiring the wrap—it came to us for some serious cockpit upgrades.

We are taking the interior to the next level by installing the ultimate driver-focused setup:

Mugen Racing III Steering Wheel – The pinnacle of tactile feedback, wrapped in premium material with that iconic Mugen branding.

Zestek Racing SCX Steering Wheel Hub – Bringing race-car functionality to the street. This hub seamlessly integrates all factory steering wheel controls right onto the hub face, meaning no loss of functionality while running an aftermarket wheel.

Form meets absolute function. 🇯🇵🔥

Unleashing the ultimate stopping power for the track. 🏁🔥

We recently had this track veteran FK8 Civic Type R in the workshop for a serious braking upgrade. While the Paragon 6-pot front brake kit has put in some serious work on the circuit, when you’re pushing ten-tenths lap after lap, you need the absolute pinnacle of thermal management and pedal consistency.

The solution? Swapping out the front setup for the legendary AP Racing 6-Pot Front Brake Kit.

Why the Switch to AP Racing?
For a heavy, high-horsepower FWD track weapon like the FK8, front brakes do 80% of the heavy lifting. Moving to the AP Racing setup introduces some massive advantages:

Asymmetrical Design: The AP Racing caliper design dynamically distributes material where the forces are highest, significantly reducing caliper flex under extreme loads.

Massive Thermal Capacity: Thicker, high-vane-count discs mean vastly improved cooling efficiency, keeping brake fade entirely out of the equation.

Pad Longevity & Consistency: Larger pad surface area ensures a more consistent bite point from the first lap to the checkered flag, while reducing overall wear rates.

The Verdict: A rock-solid pedal feel that inspires total confidence to brake later, harder, and more consistently than ever before.

What’s your go-to brake setup for track days? Drop a comment below or send us a DM to get your Type R booked in for the ultimate stopping power. 👇
