I still have two open recalls on my FL5. The driver seat bracket and the steering gear recall. I don’t really notice any steering issues unless it’s really cold. I’ll feel the notchiness then. My driver seat does make some odd noises during turns though which is not confidence inspiring. I...

Has anyone being able to purchase new engines and/or transmissions from Honda for the Type R, FL5 or FK8? Anyone that’s blown a motor or a transmission what is the typical route for replacement? Was just looking into it in case I would ever need to buy a new engine or transmission for my car...

Looking to buy a pair of the OEM cable shifter bushings for an FL5. Destroyed mine when I installed the acuity cable shifter bushings and seems you cant buy these from Honda unless you buy the cables with them. if anyone has the complete pair from when they removed and installed upgraded...

As the title states, I have a Hasport 62A RMM for an FL5 Type R for sale. Used for about 10 months and 4000 miles so it’s thoroughly broken in. Honestly, just wasn’t for me. Tried to like it but the added vibration and odd sensation in shifting was driving me insane. Others seem to love it...

I’m trying to narrow down a vibration I’m feeling on initial takeoff with my R..I’ve made a post about it and most people that responded stated they don’t feel what I’m feeling. here’s essentially what I’m feeling… So on initial takeoff from a stop, as your letting the clutch out and start...

Quick question for everyone on the FL5. This is my first K20 and I’ve read countless threads about how this engine isn’t the smoothest. I’m also aware that there are no balance shafts and this was an intentional move by Honda. I feel the vibration going through the rev range that everyone...

What’s up everyone! Just joined the forum. Proud owner of a Boost Blue FL5 Type R. Been learning as much as I can about this car and enjoying every minute with it! Looking for a how-to video or instructional guide on how-to bleed the brake/clutch fluid without a power bleeder? I have a 2002...
