I usually see 11th Gen in sedans rather than hatchback. It was interesting to see how the resin hatch is made when walking through what needs to be address with bodywork.
Stand at the back of the car and look next to the wing stay. Under the right lighting and start looking from the D-Pillar...
I accelerated out into a different street in 1st from yielding, clutch to the floor, tried to go into 2nd and get a grind.
I'm still on the same tank of gas since I took delivery. As soon as PPF is done over the weekend, then I can work on getting past the initial break-in miles. Hopefully it's...
If the FL5 and FK8 Clutch Slave Cylinder has the same part number, then it does and the way to remove it should be identical. I'll consider that if the same thing occur again.
I heard about the famous 1-2 shift grind in the FK8. Before FL5 is even officially announced, someone here asked if Honda may have ironed it out.
Well, it happened today. I was almost done with a short cruise after a snack. Tried to pull away from finish yielding for the last car coming so I...
It will be just as effective. A good alternative from replacing the entire dog bone mount for maximum comfort.
I would like to see if any FK8 owner who runs the Hasport Stage 1 mount set is willing to give me a ride. That will help me decide if I just want to upgrade all the mounts or just the...
Rigid collar is something I am likely to get some time down the road.
Not sure if you ever tried chassis brace(s) that bolts to similar locations. Would you say rigid collar is more effective if you can only get either of them?
You should. Summer tires cannot handle snow and can deteriorate colder than 40F. Running 18" wheels has all-season tire in a size identical to stock so you can at least drive in very light snow. Swap back to the OE 19" when climate is warmer.
This is Gold! Now you always have someone to cruise with. The FL5 is a very beautiful 4-door car at its price class.
One Saturday I decided to quickly go ask a detailer/high-end used car shop for a paint correction quote before the last wave of the recent atmospheric river. It was my first...
Any sensible person will line up to get a car at MSRP, but the truth is you are in for a long wait for normal mass production cars, very bad for specialty cars like the FL5 Type R. If you really want one and will keep it for a very long time, the best thing to do is find the dealer with the...
The high pitch electronic noise you are hearing after the car is turned off, or key-on engine-off, is the electronic throttle body. Not the same as the exhaust sound, which is done with a separate module. That is normal operation and you can only hear it in quiet environments like your garage or...
