  1. Alignment for daily life

    Sorry, I might have misspelled something—or maybe it was the darn autocorrect šŸ˜‚. Anyway, I didn’t remove the pins I still have them; my car was bought brand new. Regarding the coils, you’re absolutely right: all coilovers are around $3k. The lowering springs are a good thing like the H&Rs are...
  2. Alignment for daily life

    Sorry, I didn’t see your response. I’ll be going with Continental now because of the all-season tires. I don’t want to leave my wife hanging when it’s really cold—the three days it gets cold here in Texas, you know šŸ˜‚. It’s also kind of funny because I have a third car that’s 20 years old. It...
  3. Alignment for daily life

    The car is completely stock right now. I’m planning on lowering it, but not yet. I’m debating whether to go with H&R or Spoon. I contacted multiple companies to see if they had active coilovers on the horizon. Most of them told me no; the only one that said ā€œprobablyā€ was Nitron. So, I don’t...
  4. Alignment for daily life

    II had an alignment done after my steering rack was replaced at an independent shop. I don’t know why this happened so abruptly. During the last oil change, the tires weren’t like this at all. The area of Texas where I live doesn’t have bad roads—at least compared to the ones where I came from...
  5. Alignment for daily life

    Sorry for not being able to answer everything clearly. The alignment was done in September 2025, and I believe it meets factory specifications. I did not request any special adjustments. The car currently has 36,000 miles, and I drive an average of 600 miles per week, mostly highway miles. I...
  6. Alignment for daily life

    I rotate my tires with every oil change, every 5k miles, and I check the air every two weeks because of the type of driving I do. The tires, with 36k miles, still measure 6/32. This issue occurred between my last rotation and now. I’m not trying to be rude, but that wasn’t my question—please...
  7. Alignment for daily life

    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 šŸ˜‚. I’m trying to figure out how I can improve my tire wear without sacrificing the driving feel of the car. Yesterday, I...
  8. Journal on 2024 Civic Type R 28362

    Thank you! I’ve been thinking about it, and I’ll see what I can find to get a really good alignment. Honestly, I don’t know or trust any shops in my area, and that’s the only thing they won’t let me do at the DIY shop in Fort Hood. Since I’m not changing them at the dealership, I have to pay out...
  9. Journal on 2024 Civic Type R 28362

    Today I’m doing some maintenance on the car—oil change and tire rotation—when I noticed that the inside of one of the tires is cracked. I’m not sure what the technical term for that is, but I’ll share some pictures soon. I’m guessing it’s probably due to the car’s aggressive alignment...
  10. New carbon intake spotted.

    Exactly! Buy this sign-up so we can bombard you with why you aren’t buying our "bespoke" exhaust that if damaged will get mad if called out and just respond with a general answer and copy-paste to the support page. We get screwed in every front but I guess that is life for out civic sport dress up.
  11. Another oil temperature question!

    I have the P3 gauge, but it can’t be used together with the Hondata. I didn’t know that when I bought it. Basically, Hondata has had a monopoly on the tuning market for this chassis—at least until a couple of months ago when Cobb showed up. But they’re just as irresponsible as Hondata in how...
  12. Another oil temperature question!

    The guy I talk to does similar ones. I took pictures of the pitch and yaw angles and sent him a vent so he can develop it. From our conversation, I gathered that he can do multiple ones on the same spot using the same base. At the moment, I am mainly interested in the temperature because Hondata...
  13. Another oil temperature question!

    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...
  14. [COTA] Chin Track Day impressions

    Wow, have fun! Sad that we won’t be able to do this anymore at COTA. Tell us how it went. I did it with Xtreme Xperience and was so motivated to do it in my FL5, but I didn’t get the chance. How much was it? Did you find it on the Motorsports Reg website? Will there be more days before they go...
  15. Whiteline Front Strut Mount - Camber / Caster

    This is my first time seeing this, but I think @MooMoo was in a similar predicament with the OEM strut. If memory serves me correctly, the space for it is somewhat limited, making it difficult to achieve much camber without switching to a full coilover setup. Still, it’s an interesting concept...
  16. Downpipe install..

    Thanks for that information. Accurate, too. I think that’s a job—like the suspension on these cars—that I really believe is better handled by someone who does it constantly. They’re amazing cars, but complicated enough that a regular person can’t easily work on them. In the past, Hondas made you...
  17. Journal on 2024 Civic Type R 28362

    Little update: my friend gifted me the Hybrid Racing shift boot. It was on his Integra before he gave it to me. It looks great and really complements the Alcantara on the inside. I wish I could get the steering wheel, but knowing myself, I would get it all dirty and messy. I’ll be using the OEM...
  18. Which Aftermarket Exhaust Do You Have?

    Where I live, they are a little bit relaxed with that. At least, I would hate to pay for something really like it, and because someone wasn’t happy that day, they let the Scatpack, Hellcats, and Mustang that sounds way louder and obnoxious but decide to give you a headache. I know you probably...
  19. Downpipe install..

    I’m not planning on putting a downpipe on mine because of the stubborn studs, and I don’t want to deal with a check engine light later on 🤣. But thanks for the good info! Regarding your O2 sensor—if you were to do it again, what approach do you think would be the best to avoid damaging it with...
