FK8 Civic Type R - Production Version - Update
An attempt to bring the modified FK8 closer to its Production Car settings, this is a learning process so forgive my mistakes...
ABS and TCS now function, after trying to follow the instructions given earlier, I couldn't get the ABS or TCS to work, this seems to be related to an ABS_control.lut file which hadn't been associated to anything, it gave 8 levels of ABS so it has now been deleted and settings adjusted in the electronics.ini.
Stopped worrying about tyre size, it is what it is. I also tried to adjust starting tyre pressures but it doesn't seem to take in game, something is blocking it but I have yet to figure out what.
FFB has been toned down more

Data from CivicX forums / Honda / HKS
To Do:
Learning: I
still really don't know what I am doing so may have completely borked the car
Tyre size is still not spot on should be 245/30/20
Tyre Pressures!? Real car 35Psi front / 33 Psi rear ~220km/h // 41Psi front / 33 Psi Rear 220km/h~
Front ARB rate need to be calculated, I know it is hollow 29mm diameter but no other measurements (yet).
Dampers!?
Ride height!?
Electronics!? The game shows ABS and TCS switched off in the setup screens, not really sure what is working and what isn't.
FFB doesn't really tell you much, especially when understeer creeps in
Some horrid chrome interior textures need to go.
Sounds - The backfire needs to go this car does not pop and crackle from the factory
Hi,
Bought this car from a modder some time ago, maybe it can help you if you compare the values....
Add race suits
