  1. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    The differences are noticeable. For daily driving - I “think” I like the stock comfort mode the best. ITS comfort mode would probably be better for long road trips. I didn’t realize how good stock comfort was until I disconnected ads and then switched to ITS unit. It’s a great balance of...
  2. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    Please post your thoughts after you drive with it. I still can’t decide. There’s a lot to like about both units. My OCD is killing me. I’ve been driving for a month with no back seat lol.
  3. From FK8 owner to FL5

    Great comments everyone.
  4. ATS*Garage CW FL5

    Ride looks nice. How does it compare to your GR86? I was thinking of adding a GR86 to the fleet but I’m worried I’ll get bored cause type r is so good.
  5. Black Civic Type R w/ Track Package

    Looks really good. I’ve been eyeing the forged wheels - any difference in driving feel compared to stock?
  6. No Parking Sensors in USDM Type Rs - why?

    The CTR is small and easy to park. I have zero issues with not having them. And it has reverse camera so pointless to have in the rear. Park a foot or two back from curbs so the bottom doesn’t hit - I rather stick out a lil then grind bumper. and in +R mode they would rattle out. Jk ?.
  7. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    A few more comments below after more driving. I switched between both units and did the same drive - a mix of city and highway. The steering is not as sharp with the ITS unit. It feels like it takes a second delay when you turn in for the springs to load up. It felt like this in all modes...
  8. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    What tires did you go with? I was thinking about doing 265/35/19 as well for a softer ride. Did the ride quality get a little better or not that noticeable?
  9. Road trip in the Type R up California coast

    My car makes the same noise when off throttle. I thought I was a rock stuck in rotor, but was told it’s the electronic waste gate. I heard FK8 made same noise.
  10. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    Installed as well - had to try it. Below are my initial thoughts. I like it so far. The first 15 mins of driving I wasn’t that impressed and didn’t seem to notice a big difference and was thinking it’s a cheap mod what was I really expecting. After driving some more I started to like it...
  11. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    @Noize Thank you for posting that review. Much appreciated. I’m picking my unit up tonight from a local dealer. Looking forward to trying comfort mode.
  12. Whats your other car in addition to your CTR?

    Those Hondas look so good. I want ST badly.
  13. Whats your other car in addition to your CTR?

    I like the civic so much I thought about buying the “normal” version as well. Do you drive it a lot? Any complaints?
  14. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    Does anyone else hear a constant whistle noise when they let off the gas in 3rd or 4th gear? I was told it’s the electronic waste gate. It’s annoying and seems louder than normal. I recently noticed it and not sure if it’s normal. Curious if anyone else noticed this.
  15. Rocks in rotors - making annoying noise

    That might be it and maybe I’m just noticing after the rock incident. Is that a pretty constant mild sound/whistle noise when you let off the gas? I mainly hearing it when I’m decelerating from 3rd and 4th gear. I thought it was something mildly rubbing coming from the front left tire.
  16. Rocks in rotors - making annoying noise

    Has anyone else had bad luck getting rocks stuck in their rotors? It happened to me twice. I was able to push the guard behind the rotor and I heard the rock fall, but the second time I feel like a small piece is stuck somewhere because I can hear a little scratch/whistle noise. It’s strange...
  17. Active Dampers too stiff on FL5. Disabled with Damping Cancellation Kit

    I put my panel back on so I probably won’t try the FK8 unit again. I will say when I tested it before I didn’t really notice a difference. I flipped through different modes and I didn’t feel a change. It was nothing to write home about so I didn’t bother trying again. To your concern, I’m...
  18. Does It rub?: Fitment guide

    I like. How do you like this compared to stock setup? Is the extra sidewall and lighter rims noticeable?
  19. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    That looks really good. What percent did you go with? I like that the front is a little lighter.
  20. New Owner Observation / Stories

    Good idea with the spare tire. How did you buy that and what was the cost for the rim? I haven’t seen any online yet.
