  1. HRC Parts Officially Coming for Civic Type R (Available March 2027)

    Wheels are cool, I like the bit about the copper wheels being the same shade as the wheels on the RA272. Probably gonna cost a fortune though.
  2. Starguard - worth keeping? Or just a draw on the battery?

    so far it does feel a bit more firm than the previous car. That being said I’ve also not really ragged on it or took it around a corner with passion yet, still in that first 600 miles. it’s interesting, it feels like a solid mix of my old steering and the ease of the steering post recall, the...
  3. Starguard - worth keeping? Or just a draw on the battery?

    I see. I’ve reached out to my sales guy to see if he can speak to whoever installed it for its location. I’m also right that you can call star guard themselves to potentially find the location. May do that as well.
  4. Starguard - worth keeping? Or just a draw on the battery?

    Lmao! My dude! Thanks for keeping up with my journey. YES, I recently swapped my CW for this new 2026 RR. Long story short I knew in my gut I’d always be wondering what it had going on with it and my lease was up this Dec, so, buy the car or trade. I found this RR and a dealer who would be fair...
  5. Starguard - worth keeping? Or just a draw on the battery?

    Hm, well, first I can’t seem to find it….yet. Checked under both seats and the dash the best I could, also engine bay, haven’t spotted it. that being said from the images I’ve seen online it looks like I could just unplug it? No?
  6. Starguard - worth keeping? Or just a draw on the battery?

    Recently got a new FL5 type R, dealers got star guard on it somewhere, luckily I did not end up paying for it. my concern is if it’s worth keeping as thrift protection or is it just gonna be a parasitic negative draw on my battery; what do you guys think?

    I'm down in Greensboro with a CW as well, congrats on your new ride!
  8. My CTR and I need your help! Looking to have some insight from Service to light modding

    I’ve got to drive one other type r, had to drive two hours to do it and really wasn’t able to get the car above 30ish miles an hour, the two felt pretty much the same in that short time I remember. I should try and find another to drive though, you know how dealers are about people driving these...
  9. My CTR and I need your help! Looking to have some insight from Service to light modding

    Hello my fellow CTR brother and sisters, I am potentially having some long-term issues with my car and wanted to see what you all thought. To fill you in I've had my '23 R for three years now, back in Jan I had my local dealer put on new pads, rotors and tires while so finally doing the...
  10. Head gasket warranty extension?

    Forgive my ignorance but I wonder why they aren't? Is this problem mostly a 1.5 / 1.5 Turbo issue only?
  11. Say Goodbye to Your Favorite Sticky Tires in California

    Yup, It's not a perfect place / state, no where is, but to deny what California has been able to achieve as a single state is simply hubris and bias. It's a wonderful state if you're given the opportunity to really explore it.
  12. Looking for opinions after recent rack replacement. Pre and post op owners!

    I see, I’ll have to look into those, I wonder how long they last, I saw a Spoon set in my brief research but that seemed like overkill and would make the ride more harsh than it can be already. Any reputable companies that make good products? As I said, new to modding and have really no...
  13. Looking for opinions after recent rack replacement. Pre and post op owners!

    forgive my ignorance but how does one ā€˜adjust’ what you’re ā€˜not supposed to adjust’, asking for a friend. That being said the car felt pretty good this weekend with only a few times where it felt a bit off. It’s hard to pin down this feeling, gonna try it out again this upcoming weekend (80...
  14. Looking for opinions after recent rack replacement. Pre and post op owners!

    , my independent shop has been good to me and given me no reason not to trust them, I plan on taking out the car later this afternoon and tomorrow when it’s dry and the sun finally pops out to test on some back roads. Depending on that I may have my independent look at it again just to be sure...
  15. Looking for opinions after recent rack replacement. Pre and post op owners!

    The weather is finally picking up and it should be warm this weekend, gonna take her out on some back roads and see how she feels but in day to day traffic idk man, it feels lifeless sometimes. the dealer looked it over and their service manager say everything is tight, no play in the rack...
