  1. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    When you say local Honda rep, do you mean like someone from Honda online/email? Every dealer I've asked has said so many different answers (probably dependent on if they want to make a sale or not). Also I hope motor trend knows something we don't, I think it'd be great for more people to get a...
  2. Should i keep my safety net money in savings or refinance my type r!?

    General statement. You always get people who say "buying x car is stupid, fix finances" on these questions, then 90% of the forum says "do what you want". Tale as old as time. Point being, the advice is meaningless.
  3. Should i keep my safety net money in savings or refinance my type r!?

    I'd like to counter and say I have paid for mine, cash in hand, but my original intent was to finance for 24 or 36 months There's a lot to say about being financially sensible I think. There's an extreme end where people say "drive a $2000 beater and hoard your money or else you'll be poor...

    Heresay, but I believe most auto manufacturers are taking the cost of tariffs right now, read an article about bmw doing so for the next few months to keep sales from dropping too much
  5. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    Yes but Canada isn't as small a market, most of those countries you mentioned get like 200-300 of those cars if they're lucky. If anything, I think it's just an indication that they're potentially limited in supply (or even rethinking if they go through with more production of the current...
  6. ITS ADS Module vs Coil Overs?

    I've thought of switching over, but I don't want to lose the +R damping setting, I wish it would just add the new modes on top of the pre existing ones (since sport+ on the ITS is sport on the type R, and so forth, being one level lower)
  7. How to Heel-Toe with big feet

    I don't think this is rev hang, because it completely disappeared when rev match was disabled. I also don't think rev hang holds your rpm at the correct value for a smooth shift.
  8. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    Not to veer us off topic, but in the subject of AI. All current models aren't sentient but have the capability to sound like they reason. I remember reading a sci fi novel once about the idea of an alien that wasn't conscious but could observe and respond with intelligent responses. It didn't...

    We'll know soon enough, give it until like June or july

    Found this reddit thread discussing the new law
  11. Indiana 2024 CW Type R For Sale (SPOON BUILD) - 1,500 MILES - INDIANA

    This is purely dependent on where you live, I cross shopped 4 dealers with at least 2 CTRs (either there or being transported). There's a reason we have a stereotype over CTR buyers being stupid with money, a ton paid like $5k-10k over MSRP. No need for that now.
  12. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    Seems like the case. I wonder why the run was so short this time around, especially given how well the last gen CTR did.
  13. Type R (or soon-to-be Type R) owners, what else did you drive?

    Those Mercury cougars were great cars. My dad drove the last generation of mercury cougars, his was a 2000 Roush special edition. Poor car's ECU gave out and we couldn't source parts, so he ended up trading it in for a Toyota corolla :(
  14. How to Heel-Toe with big feet

    As a recovering duck footer, this post is incredibly helpful, I'll try the traditional heel toeing then I'll try what you do. If not then it's spacer time. Exact reason I wanted a manual, to have precise control over every aspect of the car that I could.
  15. How to Heel-Toe with big feet

    My problem with the rev match system isn't actually the rev matching, it's the rev hold on upshifts. The downshifting part is what it was intended for, but I guess they also thought upshifting needed a hand. Don't really think it's a badge of honor, more that I feel more connected to the car...
  16. Are these cars actually reliable?

    I'd heard bad things about Subarus sealant what with all the jokes about blown head gaskets, but it's almost like EVERY Subaru I hear about blows up or has oil leak issues. Its amazing there haven't been more lawsuits, especially when the gr86 uses the same platform. If I were you I'd cut my...
  17. How to Heel-Toe with big feet

    Then is there a way to manually downshift that doesn't involve heel-toeing that's faster? There's just so many steps on downshifting that it makes it unreliable in sticky situations. I want to say it's a practice thing if I don't go down the heel toe rabbit hole
  18. Type R (or soon-to-be Type R) owners, what else did you drive?

    Past: - 2015 Toyota RAV4 LE (car I learned to drive in) - 2016 Toyota Camry SE (my daily for like 7 years, great car, miss it a lot) - 2024 Honda civic hatchback sport (modded this car to hell and back, first car I bought new) Current: -2025 Civic Type R
  19. California Wunderladen Street Rear Motor Mount

    Have you had any other rmms in before? Wunderladen claims theirs has the least amount of nvh, and if it's true then it's one of the few mods I'd actually invest in.
