  1. CARB certification in cali. RIP

    curious why you can’t just enjoy not only the best front wheel drive car in the world (and many high-performance car killer), but probably the best car Hondas ever built?
  2. Type R owner age?

    60. Owned 2 months. Already nicely modded ;) dream car!
  3. none

    NO! That's waaaaayyyy to skinny a tire for 9.5" wheels. That size tire recommends a 7-7.5" rim

    1. Year and model: 2025 Civic Type R 2. Wheels/offset: Front: Factory: 19x9.5, OEM, +60 w/ 13mm spacer Rear: Factory: 19x9.5, OEM, +60 w/ 15mm spacer Front: Forged TDP5: 18x10", +52 Rear: Forged TDP5: 18x10", +52 (maybe 5mm spacer) 3. Tire size: Factory: Front: Vredestein Hypertrac 275/35-19...
  5. Spoon Progressive Springs - Wheel Size?

    I run a 275/35-19 Vredestein Hypertrac for the winter on stock wheels, WITHOUT spacers you are fine, with the 15mm/13mm I run it would be REAL close! That's with 35 series. Which is highly recommended for drive comfort, wheel safety and filling that gap nicely! I MIGHT not even lower the car...
  6. JQWerks MadTrace Steering Wheel System Install Guide

    Just picked up one of these. Looking forward to it. Not too concerned about the stalks. I’m going to put the turn signals on the wheel itself. Paddle shifters lol thanks for the install video.
  7. JQ Werks Madtrace Gen2 steering wheel in the house!!

    Actually, looking forward to using a daily, would like to steering wheel a little closer to me so this should do that nicely.
  8. JQ Werks Madtrace Gen2 steering wheel in the house!!

    The Madtrace Gen2 showed up the other day along with the OMP super Quadro wheel! screwed it together and when I get back from vacation it’s going on! Love the carbon paddle shifters….but…. they may be too close to the wheel to use. We’ll see how it all looks mounted. But it’s tight. Keep you...
  9. Looking to buy Type R - considering potential options

    Coming from and building a LOT of hot Honda's over the decades, and JUST moving on from a Highly modded TLX Type S, this car, the FL5, is WICKED! THE best hatch in the world. Bar none. And it's amazing owning a piece of Honda History!
  10. FL5 aftermarket steering wheel: UPDATE

    OMP Super Quadro is here! JQ Werks hub will be here tomorrow...pics coming soon!!
  11. Rays Volk Racing ZE40 Barrel Decals - PPF to Protect or Not

    I've had my TDP6 forged wheels for 3 years, ceramic coated them and they are just fine! I'd leave the stickers....and wouldn't ppf. Too easy for it to get damaged on wheels. Ceramic protects pretty damn well on it's own, if you use the right stuff.
  12. Details!

    Sometimes I go overboard with things just because. Like the TLX Type S had all titanium hardware for the fenders and front nose. It looked awesome! I’ll be doing the same for this car. I Did see and pick up something pretty cool… some Greddy hose clamps! Just had finishing touch. And they were...
  13. Switching Sides - DE5 to FL5

    Yes. Looks great and rides much better. At least till the 18s come then I’m running 305/35–18.
  14. Switching Sides - DE5 to FL5

    yes, that’s actually annoying. And why does the FL5 have navigation in car but the Integra doesn’t lol not that I use it but it’s just weird.
