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.

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!

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

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 😁

@DreamAutomotive 10 ай бұрын

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

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 ❤👍👍😃😃😃😃

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 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.

How did you get the tow hook in the front without needing to trim the front garnish?

@DreamAutomotive 4 ай бұрын

Take a look at 16:40 for a close up of the front hook going through the garnish 👍

@kikozheng3806 10 ай бұрын

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?

@kikozheng3806 10 ай бұрын

“splitter” sorry for choosing the weird word😂

@DreamAutomotive 10 ай бұрын

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 💪
