    Exactly everything about this car is replaceable. You aren't
  2. Catastrophic oil leak - I am freaking out

    Really hard to say what happened but if it was bad enough it got on the hood there definitely was some in the engine bay. This could have been bad and would have caught fire I imagine if you were driving and the engine was hot. Thats really odd this happened, glad that you are safe
  3. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    Haven't seen your video but what oil pressure drops were you seeing that caused you to install the baffle?
  4. Question about oil life

    Sorry to spam this post a bit but I actually The Motor Oil Geek (the guy from the last video I posted) just released a video thats actually kind of relevant here and I think its good information. I didn't know this but apparently the most amount of of wear and contamination occurs during the...
  5. Question about oil life

    This is a good video that describes about how oil life indicators work. Unsure about ours specifically but its probably similar, this should answer your questions. As far as the oil change the factory fill has a special blend thats supposed to accommodate the engine break in process. You can...
  6. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    So does this mean getting parts will be a huge pain and we will suffer shortages worse than S2000 owners?
  7. DSC Sport Controller Suspension Module

    Im curious to how you even install something like this
  8. 🔴💊 Engine Oil Red Pill Thread: Only Post If You Have UOA - Official Honda Civic Type R K20C1 Engine Oil Analysis

    Exactly. If there was truly a best oil for this car. The AI would be able to pick it up instead of just giving the typical AI slop, which just gives the round around and non-answers. 10 years is enough to provide data for a sort of meta-analysis. The searches are sourcing the internet and not...
  9. 🔴💊 Engine Oil Red Pill Thread: Only Post If You Have UOA - Official Honda Civic Type R K20C1 Engine Oil Analysis

    Nothing about this response is specific to Toyota engines, all variable displacement pumps use the ECM to adjust the displacement, and work the same way as described. The ECMs for our cars are not identical and have different power ratings especially when you are looking at the different...
  10. 🔴💊 Engine Oil Red Pill Thread: Only Post If You Have UOA - Official Honda Civic Type R K20C1 Engine Oil Analysis

    Where are you seeing the information that says this? Theres nothing I've seen that shows this. The 1.5L L15 that Honda uses had really bad issues with fuel dilution in earlier models when it first came out. Never seen that being a problem on the FK8s, it has been 10 years, any problems would be...

    It really doesn't matter tbh. 0W20 or 5W30. You dont really live in an extreme climate that's very hot or cold. What matters more is the oil brand you use and the frequency of your oil change intervals
  12. Oil filter question

    They swear by the JDM Subaru filter (its black) not the USDM filter. There is a difference from when I looked into it. They are made in different factories and the JDM one is better significantly than the US one.
  13. DSC Sport Controller Suspension Module

    Can anyone that knows more about suspension go into detail about what the pros and cons of coilovers vs using the stock setup with the DSC controller? Like what would the limitations of the stock setup be if you can adjust the damper settings?
  14. 992 GT3 vs. FL5 Type R

    AC was removed
  15. Oil filter question

    Where does the WIX XP come into play with this?
  16. 992 GT3 vs. FL5 Type R

    Yeah its a big reason why I like the FL5 and really love the philosophy of a hot hatchback. Never had anything as expensive as the 911 but after I got my CTR I drove my Mustang less and less because it attracted alot of attention and wasn't as low key. The thing I really love about these cars...
  17. Oil filter question

    Hmm interesting because I've heard from alot of people that FRAM is garbage now. Unfamiliar with Honda but on the Subaru side I basically asked the same question for my BRZ and alot of people were saying FRAM used to be good
