Interesting feedback about the twitchiness and loss of stability. Are you using the FK8 for FL5 sway bar on your Si?

I was thinking about getting the 27Won air snorkle. How are you liking it? Worth the investment?

What's your opinion on the strut bar? Have you felt any performance benefits in daily driving / spirited driving? I can't decide if I want to invest the money into a strut bar or not. I also saw your other post where you're selling your KTuner, but if you wanted to tune your car, you mentioned...

Hello all, I was wondering if this lower bumper part has its own part number (and if it's even removable from the bumper itself). I'm talking about the color matching strip of plastic shown in the photo. I was looking on some Honda parts websites on it seems like it is not a separate part. Maybe...

I remember you put those in from your build thread. Do you have experience with Acuity Shifters at all? If you got the Seeker Short Shifter, would you be able to compare? The Acuity short shifter is like $500.

Civic, Accord, Integra, a whole Honda sweep this year + regulars like the Cayman, BRZ, and Corvette. The Prius is IMHO the most surprising pick.

Very cool, open source intelligence is really powerful. Data on everything is everywhere. Do you do this for your job or did you discover this because you're tracking FL5s? - Ack daily free search exceeded

What are your opinions on the Spoon air cleaner? I was thinking the same instead of going with a full intake system to save some money, but I looked into the micron sizing and don't know if its worth risking getting extra crud in my engine. Does it produce extra sound & power?

I see you're in Michigan. Which body shop did you take your wing to to get it body colored? I was also thinking about body color matching my rear spoiler.

SUV's of most manufacturers fit in and are mostly anonymous. Sports cars just stand out from the mold. Normal people be spending $80k+ on trucks and SUVs but buy one use Porsche Boxster and suddenly you're Mr. Big Bucks. Looky here, how much was this guy's bonus??

Similar experiences with VW. I rented a VW Golf a year ago for work and lived with it for a week. A few months later, I test drove both the Acura Integra and a Sport Civic Sedan. The Hondas drove way better on the road, enough to give me an emotional response ("Dang!"), while nothing from the...

In the land of big 3 crossovers and trucks, no one know what a hot hatch is, except for the occasional teenager.

I still prefer manual rev matching and still in the purist point in my life, but I like your statement about enhancing the experience. It's good that the the option exists and that people can turn auto-revving on or off depending on environment. If I was commuting through Chicago and was stuck...

I need a new car soon because my beater isn't cutting it, but I need to make a good financial decision. That means I'm making a logical, economical decision to forgo the CTR in favor of an Si. I don't need to pay +$20k for the the extra 100hp, -3 seconds to 60mph, track tuned suspension that I...

100-120 mph or 100-120 kmh? Are you driving on the streets or on the track that fast?

Which calculator did you use? I'm thinking of upsizing my tires and I'm not sure with psi to use.

michaeljacksoneatingpopcorn.gif Hey OP, here's an idea. Fill both cars up with 93 octane gas, and then you race your son with you driving the CTR and him driving the EN. And then switch. Make sure not to kill yourselves or anybody else while you're racing on the street. Or maybe take both cars...

Are they significantly lighter than stock? I read on CivicX that the suspension is tuned for the heavier stock wheels, so if the aftermarket wheels are too light, the springs & struts are too powerful and cause harshness and more bumpy riding. Can anyone comment?

Slick car, slick.

Agreed, there are still plenty of manual enthusiast cars to choose from in the sub $50k-ish range: Si, CTR, Type S, GTI, Golf R, Jetta GLI, WRX, BRZ/GR86, GR Corolla, tried and true Miata, Kia N products, new Mustangs, Challengers, Minis, Nissan Z, Manual Supra. The only segment that is...
