Which dealer was it?

If I recall correctly from my FK8 days, the Bosch ECU is programmed to reach torque targets based on throttle position and RPM. It uses the air charge to do math. It will not make more power if you use a higher octane than what the torque targets were designed with. In the FL5 that is 91...

91 is the minimum you should use, and what the car is tuned for.

I've noticed something in the last 2 months of ownership. I feel like the range is very conservative. I did a test today and ran the range down to 16km = 10 miles remaining. The car only took 39L of fuel (10.3 gallons). The tank is rated at 47L = 12.7 gallons. Anyone else notice this? Or is my...

I upgraded from a 2020 FK8. I can confidently say the FL5 is one thousand bazillion times better. I had it get laggy once and be weird, but power cycling the car fixed it. I think it was because it was still brand new and I was messing around with a lot of stuff. Unlike the FK8, it auto...

The running costs you are complaining about are costs for a performance car. The tires are expensive because the car is designed to run laps. It's got almost twice the power and torque of a ND2 miata. You can get a set of blank discs that aren't two pieces for cheap, alongside generic brake...

I got a pair of low profile ramps. Drive the car onto those and use a quality floor jack.

Plant only makes engines, not cars. He can't help ya there

Thank you sir!

105k miles for spark plug and valve adjustment IIRC

Is it Boost Blue. My old Boost Blue FK8 got tons of looks and thumbs up. No one looks twice at my SGP FL5.

I have noted this to, usually an older WRX.

Another budget option that is wider is the 18x9.5 ET45 Motegi MR145

I'm going to be honest. To each their own, but seeing these in traffic always irritate me. Constantly flashing at every brake press. In Europe, the brake lights flash during rapid stops, not every stop.

I'd just leave it until you find a replacement door tbh

Bump! Anyone have pictures of the Tuxmat installed?

Probably don't want to change the supply chain for Japan + port LogR over to the the android automotive unit.

Your tires are 5.1% taller than OEM 265/30/19. I don't think it is wise to go to any lowering springs. Lowering springs would be the opposite of what you are trying to achieve in terms of comfort as well. Doesn't make sense to lower the car and have taller tires IMHO

I''ve had two grinds while driving casually in mine. Nothing when I shift fast at redline. Quite peculiar 24" with 1600 miles.

I could be wrong but I sense there is a minor possibility that the 2025 Type R's won't get the new infotainment with google integration. Only because Honda would have to port the LogR app to work with the new version of android automotive vs the old system which is just android. Again, a...
