Currently the mods I've done so far to achieve rawness...
PRL intake (pretty fun to hear the noise...)
PRL RMM (meh)
Hondata 91 octane tune (nicely wakes up the car but the power surge at ~4500 RPM needs to be smoother)
Other random mods
Acuity shift knob (hated the slippery stock one)
Acuity...
Are
are these the correct specs for the lug nuts?

I also ordered the same wheels in 18". Awesome to see how it looks on a CW TypeR. Which actual finish did you get? Silver or the brushed? Looks like yours is brushed. I went with silver. And how did you get yours so fast? My order says it won't come until January.
Would these valve stems work for our car?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do the japanese race teams race the FL5 without overheating? These guys are clearly doing multiple laps. I assume they've added cooling mods. Has anyone seen what kind of mods they've got?
@Hondata For this weekend's event in California (H-day), do we need to register and pay for that event? Or can I just show up to the parking lot area and pay only for your services? I'm not interested in attending H-day....
True. I definitely wouldn’t take it that far. I’m not looking to turn it into a full race car or do anything that’s not reversible.
What I do find annoying so far is the road noise is really boomy in this car. I was planning to take out any sound deadening to hear the engine more or to get...
This is why I bought a new car. I know it’s history and it’s less likely to break due to less wear and tear. Also you can take mods off before selling.
Yeah I'm going with the hasport race one. Is there such a thing as upgrading to a lightweight flywheel for this car? I see that the hondata tune can remove this "rev hang" problem, but this engine just feels slugglish.
Edit:
Looks like they do sell lightweight flywheel...
Ugh I wish hondata would just be able to have customers come to their headquarters to do it. They're in Socal (i'm also in socal). Would I be sending it to them to unlock the ECU or is there someone/somewhere else?
