  1. OEM Size Track Tires

    It looks like there are very limited options for track/competition/sub 200 TW class tires available in the OEM 265/30/R19 size. I'm only seeing PROXES R888R and of course, the Cup2's but they're not really dedicated track rubber. I see more options offered in the 265/35/R19 size including RT660s...
  2. Type R (or soon-to-be Type R) owners, what else did you drive?

    1991 240SX 1997 3000GT VR4 2004 SRT4 2009 Challenger SRT8 2016 Charger Hellcat 2019 Raptor 2020 Corvette C8 2022 Civic Si
  3. FL5 Civic Type R at C&D Lightning Lap 2023 -- lap time beats FK8 by 1.9 seconds!

    I'm sure there's a lot of cars in the lightning lap that can benefit from a tire/wheel swap or other $3500+ worth of modifications.
  4. High Mileage Long Term Experiences (Compilation)

    Again, you're in the wrong forum for that. I doubt anyone has over 2k miles on their FL5 and the 10th gen forum is for the FK8.
  5. High Mileage Long Term Experiences (Compilation)

    You may have better luck in the 10th gen forum (civicx.com) as this is the 11 gen forum.
  6. 2023 Civic Type R FL5 - Reviews Compilation (Articles + Videos) ✍🏻 🎥

    Agreed though we'd see something by now but who knows, we can only speculate. I'd like a 'RIng time too but this is pretty juicy...some day, same drivers...tells us quite a bit and establishes a good baseline / pecking order.

    FL5 results in this year's C&D Lightning Lap: https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a42387050/2023-honda-civic-type-r-lightning-lap-2023/ Almost 2 seconds faster than the FK8 LE and beats out the more expensive and exclusive GR Corolla Morizo. The fact that it slaps a 382hp m240i is icing on...
  8. I need to know which one of you is out here buying Type R’s for 70k

    Not every dealer is listing at 20k over, lmao. I was one of the first deliveries in CA and paid 4k over. Maybe it's you who needs to layoff the crackpipe...

    Agreed, IMO having a true hatch, a better, cleaner interior, and far superior controls would weigh up the daily driving factor over the N but I guess in the end, better daily = keeping your butt warm. Too bad I find the N so visually unappealing but like the one reviewer, I can't get passed...
  10. Show your % of tint on your FL5

    Xpel prime, 20 rear windows and hatch, 50 front w/ blacked out (gloss roof) roof.
  11. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    My boot popped out easily with gentle (hand) force. Easy as cake.
  12. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    The inner seat frame was replaced (which required entire seat disassembly). Nothing else was replaced including the cushions.
  13. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    In my case the squeaking was def coming from the interior of the seat, at or around the side bolsters. There was no way grease was going to do a f:ck:ng thing without complete disassembly of the seat cover and cushions.
  14. Can you use the F1 style instrument gauges while driving in the comfort mode

    Yes, it will start up in the same mode you were last in (comfort, sport, individual) except for R+.
  15. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    Yes, picked it up yesterday and the squeaking issue is 100% resolved. Cabin is now amazingly quiet. Below are some details on the parts and labor used to assist anyone else experiencing this aggravating issue.
  16. SGP available in WA

    How is a low-volume high-performance version of a vehicle a need? More regulation won't necessarily help. It will just cause the mark up dollars to shift from dealers to the flippers pocket. What's next? Housing because shelter is also a need? Fine wine because it's a drink?
  17. 2023 Civic Type R FL5 - Reviews Compilation (Articles + Videos) ✍🏻 🎥

    TLDR: Type R wins. Toyota doesn't lose this comparison test so much as the 2023 Honda Civic Type R wins it with its end-to-end excellence. Not a single major asterisk attaches itself to the CTR: It delivers racy performance, refinement, spaciousness, quality, and a special sizzle that will...
