Hopefully ill be ready to put the mugen kit on along with other mods thats just sitting in the trunk next year. This year I was really focused on finishing my subarus mainly my legacy. But id like to share something cool I bought recently. A 5spd 2000 honda insight with jdm goodies installed by previous owner. Its clean title only got 73k miles. I know its not a ek civic so u cant really compare the fl5 to it but its kinda cool to own 2 honda hatches. Im excited by taking less trips to the gas station now.

Finally getting around to vacuuming and laying down protective film on the red carpet on both sides up front. Yes i know the adhesive over time will stick onto the carpet over time but it should be fine. Also laid a layer over the black ones too lol

After 6 months of waiting, Origin coolant tank finally came. Also added a Feel's cap on it. This combo looks so good. Now how do you swap it out?

I followed this video to install my coolant tank reservoir. It also helps if you have locking hose clamp pliers.

HFP Si mats in the FL5. I dont like how small it is so I laid some protective film over it and the surrounding border too but for $100 cant complain.

+1 on the locking clamp pliers. You can find them cheap on Amazon and they make this install infinitely easier to do in just a few minutes
This install wont introduce air into the system?

You still need to bleed the system when done. The clamps help in containing fluid spills and speed up the process

This is more to avoid having to drain all your coolant to replace the reservoir and make the process quicker. I still bled the system after, but little to no air came out since the reservoir is at the highest point in the cooling system.
