  1. Road noise

    Another thing is to downsize your width. 265mm wide makes alot of noise. If you are serious about reducing noise and keeping the CTR, Id go for a 245mm, pick a low noise tire AND a new 18in wheel.

  3. 2023 Civic Type R Sets New FWD Track Record at Nürburgring!

    Insane effort by the driver. He almost lost control at the 4.20min mark pushing so hard! I figured it would have beat the Megan Trophy R by more of a gap, but the time is very impressive considering the Civic has no weight reduction.
  4. Hondata FL5 FlashPro released

    Wanted to highlight this very interesting info that people may have glanced over. The new FL5 Turbo although having a 5mm smaller compressor inlet, still produces more power and torque than the FK8 turbo. Largely due to the improvement in computerized fluid dynamic software when developing the...
  5. First gear locked out at stop light

    Common on Honda Trans. Same thing happened on my 8th Gen Si. Its always best practice to go 2nd then to 1st. Also go to 1st before reverse. This makes for smoothest shifts as it aligns synchro's.
  6. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    Found a new video on installation. This definitely mimics my concerns and provides a solution. Well done to this guy!
  7. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    Thats a good looking knob!
  8. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    I love the look of the stock shift knob too. It suits the car well and looks upscale. But the problem is the temperature for sure. Obviously being in Canada its cold AF up here and I pretty much drive with gloves on if I take the car out lol. Anyway thanks for the reply folks, I will do some...
  9. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    Based on what im seeing on the newer models its very hit or miss. Some folks it pops out no problem and some people its a struggle and they damage things. This video for example, they had to dismount the boot from the collar completely to unclip it. If you look at the design of that collar...
  10. Shift Knob installation on FL5R

    Has anyone DIY'ed their shift knob install? I picked up my new Red Knob, however during attempting installation and watching youtube videos, I discovered that most people are damaging their shift boot collar in the process. It appears that 2020 and newer Type R have a different style of collar...
  11. Protective film on back fenders

    Its suppose to be there. Thats a high impact area for rock chips. I actually got all my doors wrapped with Expel so they removed it. But yes suppose to be there and a very nice detail from Honda to ensure the cars protected.
  12. Winter Tire setup

    Due to short notice on my pickup date I had to source a cheap set locally. I ended up getting some knockoff wheels and Khumo wintercraft WP72 tires 18x8 +35 5x120 RAC wheel R01 245/40/18 Khumo Wintercraft WP72 This setup cost me only $2300CDN and since I dont winter the car I didnt feel the...
  13. 2023 Civic Type R First Test: The Numbers Are Surprising [Motortrend Review]

    So the thing is the trap speed of the FL5 being about 4MPH slower than the Type R LE is a bit telling and I do think the FL5 should be quicker there. Could be weight difference of the wheels and car but the engine is suppose to have more power. But still, you dont buy the FL5 for straight line...
  14. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    My opinion on the Integra Type S is its going to be mechanically the same as the Civic and I think its going to be 10k over. So 60k MSRP CDN.
  15. CTR Initial Mods

    Did you get this installed yet? Looks very similar to the OEM one but the bottom is slightly more tapered than OEM.
  16. OEM Cargo Tray and Seat Back Protectors

    Just installed mine. It is decent quality and looks great. Only thing is the bottom right corner seems like it wasn't made for the sub woofer. So I cut off that little cubbie and now it fits perfect. Type R specific branding and OEM quality. Can't go wrong.
  17. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    I heard on a video you cant have the R+ Gauge Cluster in Individual mode. You can on my car. Wonder if its a Canadian only thing or can all cars do it? EDIT: Looks like US cars can do it too. Individual mode is awesome! R+ Cluster, Comfort sound, and Comfort Suspension is sweet.
  18. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Reading my delivery information. Good news here. You can turn off that annoying red line beep.
  19. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    I do not plan to winter drive it however I am getting a winter tire package just to get it home safely lol. And Maybe drive it a couple times on a nice winter day. This car will be mainly summer
  20. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    I just got back from my dealer in Alberta. My cars arrived and it looks awesome. It still needs to be PDI'd and have PPF installed and stuff. But I'm pumped about it! The seats are amazing to sit in. Im very lucky and the dealer wasn't even able to choose their color so I'm lucky getting CW. I...
