  1. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    It will be well worth the wait :cool: ... and then we can start bugging @ACUITY about when their CAI for the Type R will be coming out :stirthepot:.
  2. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    Yes. I left the console off so I had easy access to all of the adjustments.
  3. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    I believe that the shifter will be available as a complete kit or just the shifter stand-alone. IIRC, the stand-alone shifter will not include a knob or shift boot collar. It will include its own shifter base bushings. (The base bushings are a captive design - so much less fuss to install!)...
  4. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    I don't have a preference. It all depends on how you shift. The ACUITY ESCO is designed for "pistol grip" shifting - like in @powow66 's excellent video in post #23, above. The stock knob lends itself to a "claw grip." The red leather knob is designed for either (according to a Google Translate...
  5. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    Yes. I have that knob (and shift boot retainer) on the shifter now.
  6. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    FYI, the shifting video is with the shifter set at shortest throw, narrowest gate, and knob set at max. height. I have been playing around with settings constantly as I want to be sure of my settings before I put the console back on. ATM I have the red leather Type R knob installed at lowest...
  7. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    I noticed no clicking, and I have the shifter configured for shortest/tightest shifts.
  8. ACUITY Prototype 10th-gen Shifter - My review

    TL;DR: 1.If you love driving, then you will want to get this shifter. 2. I do not have any information about cost. ACUITY provided me with a prototype. 3. 90-second poorly-shot video of shifting: Background The 10th-gen Honda Civic uses a cable shifter. (Almost all FWD cars use a cable...
  9. ALTA Performance Introduction

    I would never expect Honda to design their shifters to handle aftermarket shift lever extensions ;). As for drilling and zip-tieing, I wouldn't do it myself either ... which is one of the reasons why I'm waiting for a full replacement shifter. @ALTA Performance - is your Shifter Cable Lockdown...
  10. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    A full shifter for the 10th gens is coming ...
  11. ALTA Performance Introduction

    The ziptie mod is for every short shift adapter that extends the factory shifter rod. The mod isn't required, but it does work to fix the 'click' that can happen in all of these adapters. Not all installs will have the 'click,' but if yours does and it bothers you, then a solution doesn't have...
  12. Acuity 10th Gen Civic Stage 1 Shift Kit on the Type R - install tips, reviews, etc.

    Unfortunately, rev match isn't enabled for the 2-1 downshift. The pedal spacer works well - moving the pedal just enough for a lot of people. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to remove mine as it isn't an allowed modification for the class that I'm in. Nope. I know Acuity has springs for some...

    Send me your address by PM and I'll mail a pair out to you. I've got extras ...

    Rocker is out - $108 https://acuityinstruments.com/products/acuity-shifter-rocker-upgrade-for-the-10th-gen-civic Edited to corrected link.
  15. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    There's a couple different things going on here. 1. Acuity will be coming out with a complete replacement shifter for CivicX. This can be configured to be a short shifter. Like their ninth-gen shifter, it will be in a different price bracket than the mods. 2. There will also be a short-shift...
  16. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    I've tried most of the parts as stand-alone, but I must admit that I haven't tried the rocker separate from the spring. However, the spring doesn't make a huge difference with the Type R shifter that already has an upgraded spring. To me, I think that this is really a case of the whole being...
  17. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    Good plan. I've been running a prototype of the rocker all winter. You'll definitely want this piece (and the shifter centering spring, and the base bushings, and the shifter cable bushings, etc.)

  19. The Official ACUITY Instruments CivicX product launch thread!

    It's a nice silver-finish (bare Aluminium) boot collar. (I'm kinda surprised that it isn't purple ... LOL)
