The car then spent time with MBRP Exhaust, being their development car for the upcoming exhaust. Here were my requests from what I've learned with my own FK8 and the community at large when it comes to an exhaust that we want to run:
1) Triple Tips
2) Configurable Muffler/Resonator options
3)...
It's been a busy summer to say the least!
Update #1 Wrap! Went a little wild here, the FL5 is White is so subdued so why not have some fun with it! Avery Gloss Roaring Thunder Blue/Red
More pics as requested of the 265/40. The tiniest amount of poke, that can be dialed out with some additional negative camber with an alignment. If you have a +45 offset wheel there will be no poke with factory alignment.
Turn-in is not as hyper responsive as it is with the factory setup, but...
Hello All!
Just took delivery of #5466 here in Toronto, ON. Really lucky to have secured the allocation last year, Canadians are having a hell of a time getting their hands on these. This is the first and only 2023 allocation that our dealer secured; their next one comes in 2024, and of course...
Took delivery of #5466 on Thursday :)
Same saga as many others with the car being delayed a few months, then sitting at the port for a several weeks. No time wasted, 600kms already in 4 days, should be past the 1,500kms mark in 2 weeks.
Took the 265/30R19's off with less than 100kms on them...
Congrats, and yeah absolutely a good call! I actually lost a new Grey 2021 FK8 because I was a little late, and then had to hunt again and settled on my lightly used Black 2020.
Still waiting for our White FL5, the Plates are patiently waiting...
Going to have to shoot some matching ? pics...
Thank You, and absolutely I'm against any advising or pushing of parts for the sake of making a sale. Just not something you'll see me do. 2017 - 2019 I was just a member of CivicX building my Si and sharing my progress, and through that process one thing led to another I was doing group-buys...
Hey Corey, how'd you manage to get one of these? I personally don't run a front plate anymore as I feel this would bring more attention than having no plate at all.
Also, nice to see another Ontario member :)
I've been looking for a thread like this!! We missed out on the opportunity to install front suspension parts as well on an 11th that came to the shop for a clutch kit recently, so I've been searching through the forum to see if anyone's done it.
Research looking at part diagrams and pn's said...
I have Michelin x-ice on my winter beater Odyssey, they're phenomenal. Grip, road noise, and wear is excellent.
On an on FK8/FL5, it'll be best to have Summers and Winters for best performance in each respective season. All Seasons will just null the experience all year round
Currently have the #1 slot at our local dealership, just waiting on updates as to when it'll arrive. It'll be Championship White :)
Have already been working with a few customers for modifications... Eibach Pro-Kit Springs, Paragon 6-piston BBK, Paragon Rear 2-piece Rotors and Pads, and Dream...
Speaking of initial mods, this afternoon I sent out the following to a good friend who's building his FL5 for the track.
Paragon 6-piston Front BBK + R5 Track Pads + Titanium Shims
Paragon 350mm Upsized Rotor Kit + R5 Track Pads
Link to Paragon Brakes @ Unity
He did his first track day in the...
Only pic I have at the moment, but yes they go all the way to the floor and can be tucked in. I regularly have my rear seats folds and transport boxes, wheels & tires etc. so the seat-back protection is key as well
Thank You, and thanks to everyone! The Red with Black Sides are now sold out till the next batch in 8 weeks, BUT I do have Black with Red Sides, and all Black in stock :)
Today's orders are ready to head out!
@phillystyle17_si thank you sir! You'll see Tracking for yours later today :)
I keep mine on year round as well, it helps with keeping the surface clean and not wearing down the bolsters since there's less friction getting in and out. I also don't feel guilty/paranoid either having a beverage...
