Gerb you're the reason I still have my FA5. don't really drive her much but I'm never letting her go, and "remember guys; never stop wrenching!!!"

[paulo..ferreira]

It is actually a race engine, with Honda road going reliability, torsen LSD, very racy suspension, decent brakes. It is crazy how this cars were accessible. FA5 guy from Brazil here. Thanks for your videos, it helped more than a few times along those years.

I have 2 sedans.. one stock for daily driving, and one supercharged for daily driving also 😂

173k mile FG2 in Fiji Blue Pearl, im early 20s college student and your vids have really helped me learn how to do maintenance on my car.

Gerb, you're right. These engines are so reliable! I have had my 06 Si coupe for 11 years. I'm the 4th owner. I love it to death, and I just won't part with it.. We have 4 vehicles lol. My car has 165K miles.. I keep it in the garage and mainly drive it on nice days and no rain (has a bit of a leak from the sun roof molding and will dampen the carpet on the driver side). No need to get rid of it, I insure it with liability only with a 1k deductible. The clear coat is JUST NOW starting to peel on the roof and spoiler. I drive it all summer long, and I enjoy wrenching on it in its "off season".

The 8th gen is such a timeless piece of honda engineering. I've had mine for 11 years and cant imagine ever needing to get rid of it!

k24z3 Manual 5 speed accord 2012 LS-X coupe love her to death

[jordancole]

long time subscriber and I’m always stoked to see your videos come up. Owned a 2008 black fg2 stock, then a 2008 fa5 sold it and got a mint condition rally red fg2 fbo e tune been running it since 200k km just rolled over on 280k km today. Will never sell that car! I drove across Canada 9000km and no issues whatsoever, also put 60k km on in in less than a year and I’ve been storing it every winter! Coming on almost two years since I’ve owned that car!

I’ve had (8) 8th gen Si’s in a short amount of time. My turbo k24 20111 hfp sedan is my favorite car ever

[jackhofalot]

I have been watching since I got my 8th gen 9 years ago. got it at 96k.. ive put 70k hard miles on it, hitting VTEC every single day keeps the problems away lmao.
ive had mine FBO pushing ~220 whp on a freaking e tune for over 3 years no issues.
absolutely love my fg2. Its sad to see her rusting out just like midnight :(

[tboats]

Got my 08 si in 2016 with 110. 8 years later with 205 miles still going strong 💪🏿

[FGZim]

i resonate with feeling one with the car. the handling is my favorite part of the car. feels like no other, the back of the seat feels like the back of the car. i bought mine 3 years ago with 89k miles, now at 177k miles. drove it a shit tonne from canada to us no issues.

[allanreyes]

My civic has been sitting without a motor and transmission for 4 years I finally bought a motor and trans for it getting my car back after so long I miss it and I also never gave up on it

[moisesguajardo]

I own (2) 8th gen civics … a coupe & a sedan ( FG1 & FA1 ) r18’s / I love them a lot and I would NEVER sell them

[jimmyyking]

ASM 07 FA5, K24A RBB-3 swap. Looking to get my hands on some 06-08 TSX Cams in the future. Hate the vibrations but love the torque. Thanks for all the helpful vids, specially with the k24a swap.

[purplerain]

I have a 9th gen but I can’t even lie the 8th gen is a masterpiece

[HazeePagadizzle]

My 07 Civic Si Just Reached 200, 000. Still Running Good!

[Geo-Media]

I own a FB6, and now recently aquired a FA5 as well... both are amazing cars and i will Not let either one of them go ever 😊
