  1. Type R Wave

    Me 2!
  2. Type R Wave

    While I admit to knowing (and participating) in the Jeep wave and the low motorcycle wave, I never knew there was apparently a Type R wave until this morning. On my way to TIA, a sweet FK8 pulled along side in the lane to short term parking and the driver made a hand gesture that I initially...
  3. Tire Package

    No! Look around and shop elsewhere. I'd recommend Justin Edward Adams.
  4. New Owner Observation / Stories

    95% of the jerks I’ve encountered are driving F150s with 18” body lifts. The rest have been Challengers, WRX-STis, assorted Audis, and beaters without mufflers. I ignore them all, but the tailgaters piss me off!
  5. What The F***!

    Good stuff! Thanks.
  6. Seat Recall Gone Wrong?

    I concur with your general assessment, but there are a lot of competent vehicle mechanics around, including at some Honda dealerships. I've also had idiots work on my Hondas including loose oil drainage bolts, greasy stains on the upholstery, missing lug nuts, and exterior scratches from their...
  7. Unsolicited & Positive Review: Tires/Wheels

    Since receiving my CTR in January, I’ve been researching wheels and tires. The decision for my next set of tires was relatively easy since I preferred to stay with 19” wheels (i.e., not a great many choices at present). After reading 50+ surveys and speaking with a nationally acclaimed expert, I...
  8. What did you pay for your FL5?

    Smart move! Good for you.
  9. Spoon Springs vs Eibach?

    Sure it's not Swift rather than Showa?
  10. "I always feel like somebody's watching me...."

  11. Recall: 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) Driver's Seat Cushion Frame Stop Sale (TSB Service Bulletin 23-030)

    Just an additional suggestion. I also gave the Honda Tech a gift card inside a note thanking him for his taking extra care of my FL5. It might be a good idea to request a specific Service Tech. I looked at my dealership's website under "Meet Our Staff" and saw that they had a "Master...
  12. Haters

    Sorry you had to experience such a random act of envy . There seems to be a contingent of bad actors that enjoy defacing what they can't have. Hope your FL5 can be made new again!
  13. Haters

    What preceded them throwing the object at your car?
  14. Vehicle Names

    Chatting with friends this weekend and someone asked if anyone named their cars. We all sort of paused a moment and then he said, “You know, like Eleanor, Christine, or the Green Hornet?” Everyone laughed when a younger fellow said, “I named my C6 Lightning McQueen!” Then to our surprise...
  15. First ever autocross event in my FL5

    Nice, honest, and informative. Kudos!
  16. Seat Recall Gone Wrong?

    I can't speak for others, but based upon my observations, the recall repair was limited to the lower seat rail. There was no problem with my cushion. A total of three parts were ordered and used during the repair. However, to access the work area the seat needed to removed from the car...
  17. Question about the rear diffuser on my FL5

    Can't discern anything from your photo, but it should be an easy repair, but probably less than your deductible - bummer if so. Did the other driver offer to pay?
  18. Apexi vs Spoon exhaust FL5?

    Clark_Kent made sage remarks with which I concur. I would add that, in my opinion, Spoon products tend to be overrated across the board. Few products seem to be manufactured by Spoon but rather come from other resources. Apexi products have a reputation for high quality and the ones that I've...
  19. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Dyno results! Need some evidence above perception. Foam filters work fine for dirty conditions, but not always better.
