Finally got time to install this. Still waiting for my Hondata injectors, back order end of May.

I’ve got it mounted in my gauge with some double-sided tape. Just too lazy to snap a pic right now.

Manufacturers generally recommend not pushing beyond 240–250°F for extended periods. The FL5 doesn't come equipped with a true oil temperature sensor the LogR app provides estimated values, but it's not a direct reading from the engine oil. I've installed a proper engine oil temperature sensor...

was this in comfort mode or R mode?

Correct. Specifically referencing Big Willow and Streets of Willow. That said, his driving style differs significantly from mine. When I refer to overheating, I mean engine oil temperatures exceeding 250°F as recorded by Honda LogR. While the ECU doesn’t initiate limp mode at these levels, both...

Not anymore, but I used to take the car to the track even when it was completely stock. Got some pics in my signature: https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/buntatyper-boost-blue-build.54569/ I bought this car to be driven hard. Rsx-s is my most reliable honda. It hit 160k miles revving 8.9k...

I own an S2000, Subaru STI, and a Model 3 Performance. I can only speak from my own experience. The main issue with the Type R is cooling. On track days, if the ambient temperature is over 75°F, the car tends to overheat after about three laps, depending on how aggressively you're driving. A pro...

More goods arrived More to come.

ill be interested in this - divorcing the two systems,

The logged temperature shown on the Type R’s screen appears to be inaccurate. I’m running a dedicated engine oil temperature gauge, and I consistently see a 40–80°F delta depending on airflow through the dual oil coolers. It seems the value on the log screen is an ECU-calculated estimate rather...

I went to the SoCal Drivers Club event at Buttonwillow—open sessions all day with a 40-car cap. Highly recommend it! Here are some pictures.

Regarding your 'spirited drives' in the FL5, can you quantify the duration. are we talking about 10–20 minute stints? And are you frequently sustaining high RPMs near redline. I never experienced any issues with my FL5 in stock form, but I also didn’t push it nearly as hard in the canyons or...

Took the car to Chewerks and had a pro handle the install. I’ve installed coilovers before, but the JRZs require nitrogen charging, so I left it to Rob. I didn’t ask about the details of the setup since I plan to go back to him when it's time for a rebuild. I’ll also be returning for proper...

are you talking about the JRZ?
