I thought our cars already had Driver Attention Monitor? That is standard with the whole Honda suite. In which case, I think it just monitors your driver inputs and if you aren't steering/braking/accelerating enough, then you aren't attentive? There should be no interior camera Someone correct...

I hope it is. I'd be HIGHLY interested in swapping it out. This is the only change from this refresh I actually like

My rotors are grooved and I'm looking into potential upgrades. These EBC Racing Rotors are catching my eye. I plan on running these with EBC Bluestuff pads which I already have experience with and I'm quite fond of them. Anyone out there who has experience with these rotors? I'm open to...

I heard one of the reasons this is an issue is because of the way ECO mode is tuned on these 1.5T engines and how it will cause LSPI and strain the head gasket. Really makes you think — because everyday drivers will probably run ECO mode to save gas meanwhile Si’s don’t have ECO mode and this...

Yeah I just paid my deductible. Here's the thread I made about my lengthy battle with USAA: https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/aftermarket-windshield.59211/

And FWIW I also went through USAA for my claim. But I coughed up the extra money to have the replacement done at Honda and not through Safelite -- clearly they do not know what they are talking about!

Well I got my windshield replaced with 73111-T60-305 and clearly it fit perfect because it's on the car

Just a heads up that the Type R windshield actually is different from the other Civic trims, hence the different part numbers

Thanks guys. Good to at least get some validation that the gunmetal on SGP may not be a bad combo..

I'm dead set on replacing my stock wheels with the OEM forged ones. They match so perfectly to what I'm trying to do with the car which is to be OEM+. But my issue is that I have a Sonic Grey Pearl FL5, and I'm REALLY indifferent to the gunmetal on grey/green pearlescent. In my opinion it just...

Sadly I am not. but for reference I am a size 12 and i use the foot rollover method since I cannot tweak my heel over like the real drivers can.

Is this car's pedal box actually bad for heel toe? Not my first manual car but my first car learning how to heel toe in - so I don't have much for reference Sometimes I'm really nice with the heel toes and other times i botch them. Always thought it was a skill issue. Am I nerfing myself by not...

IMO, Remus sounds the best. Most if not all of these aftermarket exhausts are way too raspy and just make more noise for the sake of it - but the Remus sounds actually tasteful. Unfortunately it can be pretty hard and expensive to source so I opted for the front res delete and am pretty happy...

dumb question, but better safe than sorry - on stock suspension with the strut tower pins pulled, my speed shop was able to get -2.1 degrees of camber up front. should that still have clearance for any lowering spring setup?
