I recently installed new wheels, tires, and lowering springs on my car. The previous alignment will be attached in a picture. I’m currently running 265/30/19 Continental DSW tires with 19x9.5 +50 wheels, paired with H&R lowering springs. I was thinking of adjusting the alignment to get as close...

I found this video explaining the aerodynamics of the Type R with and without the spoiler. It shows how much the car changes. I’m not trying to be the spoiler police or anything after all, the first thing I took off my Evo was the spoiler! I’m sure there will be a doctor or someone debating...

As much as I dislike JDM companies for how they sell parts and make you wait forever to get them—plus don’t even get me started on the purists—but that’s not what I want to talk about today! Apparently, Blitz is also working on a kit that works with the OEM shocks and struts, and it’s...

Long story short, while I was trying to install the PRL stainless clutch line, one of the metal fittings got stripped and wouldn’t loosen up. So, I ordered the MAPerformance clutch line instead, which is a complete line similar to what I used to have on my Evo when I upgraded to the Evo 9 master...

I know most of you here are probably trying to get the best possible performance out of our cars, but there are definitely some people who don’t really focus on that at all 😂. I’m trying to figure out how I can improve my tire wear without sacrificing the driving feel of the car. Yesterday, I...

I also used the search function, and I know this topic has come up before. One of the previous threads mentioned the oil cooler option. I daily drive my car, so adding an oil cooler isn’t a big priority for me. I was also on the Hondata forum, but I got banned—my fault. I made a comment that if...

I was looking at just rear splash guard. I found a style on AliExpress, but they are carbon. I am looking for something on the plastic side. I already went to ZL1 addon, Rockblocks, Megachips, and FX3d designs. Before they are recommended, they aren’t the same style that I’m looking for. They...

I placed an order for my FL5 project. I looked around at the specs, and I know that everyone is running +45 on their offsets, but I really didn’t like how much farther out the rear tires sat on the car. Anyway, thanks to another member, @PWR2W8T, he gave me the inspiration. Don’t worry—I’m not...

Just making this post to thank whoever shared the information on the Greddy magnetic drain plug, 23901303. If I’m not mistaken, it’s for the GR86. The thread pitch is M20-1.5, and it fit like a glove. Now the Type R has magnetic drain plugs for both the engine oil and transmission. If anyone...

I plan to buy a couple of carbon bits for the FL5, but I’m wondering if you all think there’s a specific color code for the black on the car, or if it’s just gloss black. I’ll post pictures of the parts I plan to buy for painting.

I’m starting this after owning my car since July 2024, and I think I’ve been on this forum ever since. A little backstory: I’ve always been a Honda/Toyota guy since I started driving—those are the two brands I’ve always owned. Like most car enthusiasts, I’ve had my list of dream cars: the R33...

Hey everyone, I have a question for those of you running lower on H&R springs. How much did your alignment change, and what’s the situation with running rear camber arms? I was browsing the Wunderladen website and noticed they sell camber arms, but they’re described as toe arms and look like...

I bought the yellow Powerflex insert for my transmission mount. I chose it because I don’t want a lot of vibration and noise like I’ve read about with other mounts, but I also don’t want to pay $30K for the Spoon ones just because🤣🤣! Does anyone here have that setup in their car? I’m looking...

As the title says, I’m looking for options beyond the OEM rear spoiler upgrade. I’ve been searching around, but, as usual, I was late to the party—Garage Unique’s spoiler is discontinued. I’m hoping to find something that lets me remove the OEM spoiler and mount a new one in that same style...

I’ll be changing wheels and tires on my FL5. I daily mine, and where I live gets cold but not freezing. For the information I gathered, the Pilot Sport 4s is rated to be safe to use no more than 40 degrees. I mainly use the highway with a couple of bridges, and the speed is 75-80. My question...

I hope this document helps someone. It shows the cars’ 1.5, 2.0, and Type R models in various areas of the car. I hope this helps someone at least have something to guide them.

Hello, I’ve decided to change the wheels on my FL5. The reason is that there’s no nearby shop that knows how to replace the tires. I’ll be investing in some new wheels instead. I won’t be able to do it today because I measured the tires and they’re 8/32 all around after 26,000 miles. I don’t...

Hello, I have a question. Does anyone here use the Hondata app on iOS and have the microphone access message been disabled, yet the app continues to crash afterward? Also, are my gauges off on the readings? For instance, my voltage gauge starts reading 14.3 volts, but while driving on the...

I have my 2024 Type R that I love, but I’m frustrated with the way the click noise on the steering is handled by the dealers or Honda. This isn’t a cheap car, and right now I consider that to be Honda’s halo car, but you get treated as if you own a Civic LX to keep the comparison on the same...

So today I’m doing the recall on my R the same dealer that screwed my wheel a year ago, also is the closest one that I have sadly try to contact a Acura dealer but no success on that and bring it because I heard a click noise when I go full turn on the car. I try to ask on another post but...
