  1. Best Factory Color - 2023 FL5 Type R 📸Updated Pics📸

    Haha it was actually a tiny portion of a photo - my car was in the background of a photo and it happens to be the only shot of it I have access to right now. Plus pixels were expensive in 2009 when this was taken 🤣
  2. MSRP Only Dealerships For 2023 Civic Type R

    I had done this in the past with other cars and looked everywhere the other day to find the dimensions to see how large I could potentially go with the FL5 (and found nothing).. now I see this 🤣 Nice! so... how long / wide are those mattresses?
  3. Looks like US Civic Type R FL5 versions are on their way to shipping...

    Interesting - Where abouts did you hear the Q2 for Aus? Was that something you heard from an official/dealer etc?
  4. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    Yea as much as I don't like the interior - I have to say the Yaris does look decent in person from the outside.
  5. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    They try to make the design seem modern, but they are so plasticy... I know I've already said this - but my comparison of late is always with the Mazda 3 (no I don't own one) because I personally think they have outdone themselves since around 2014 with interiors. It's not even in the same...
  6. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    I agree - but then you look at the interior of a Mazda 3 from even 8 years ago and it looks leagues above the Corolla.
  7. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    My issue with the GRC is that it maintains so much 'Corolla'... thr dashboard, plastics, design etc. IMO The normal Corolla has materials and a feel (and drives) like a cheap car (unlike Mazda for example - or even Honda)... so in terms of drive I can't say for the GRC.. but the fact it seems...
  8. Looks like US Civic Type R FL5 versions are on their way to shipping...

    It's not just you - In Australia we are forever getting things with features removed because 'that's what the market wants' or simply to save some money to reduce the price (and then make it more expensive anyway 😂).. In this case we seem to be getting some of the extras in Aus for the FL5, but...
  9. Looks like US Civic Type R FL5 versions are on their way to shipping...

    Is that a brighter version of Boost Blue 😉 But yes I would say we will.
  10. Backup plans - what's yours?

    I think the GR 3 cyl option is the way to go - lightweight, more power with reliability. Plus no more RTV!?
  11. Best Factory Color - 2023 FL5 Type R 📸Updated Pics📸

    Yep - for me the very 'busy' reflector style rear reverse (clear) lights look extremely out of place especially when you consider how sleek the front lights are - seem like they were designed by different teams who didn't bother talking to each other. But the night shots where only the red is...
  12. Best Factory Color - 2023 FL5 Type R 📸Updated Pics📸

    This is not the R you're looking for... (Leave it alone... it's mine 😇)
  13. First batch of production FL5 Civic Type R are out and about, bound for HK this time. ( RALLYE RED ) ❤️‍🔥

    Honestly, will everyone just quit it. Stop posting photo's... The more you post, the more annoyed I get that I'm not able to buy the thing yet 🤪 PS. More Black photos plz (apologies for the red thread hijack).
  14. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    I agree with everything you said - except for the fact that a rear bias (or simply rear wheel drive) will inherently have a built-in head-start advantage towards feeling more connected to the road (if all other things are equal) due to the shifting of mass during acceleration (pressure /...
  15. Best Factory Color - 2023 FL5 Type R 📸Updated Pics📸

    I hope everyone agrees with you... so I can enjoy my Black ... all ... alone!!
  16. JDM FL5 Civic Type R Owner's Manual; Rev Match OFF+ specified Oil/Fluid capacity

    Look above your comment for additional clarification - I'm thinking some stronger bolts between the spoiler and the hatch should unspring it. 😂
  17. Official 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) U.S. Specifications Released! 315 hp / 310 lb-ft!

    I regret to inform you, you've been ejected from Type R. Please leave all clutches and gearsticks where you found them and say your goodbyes. Bags will be inspected upon leaving.
  18. Type R Record at the Ring?

    Yes that's true, however in that case, the start speed compared to the overall lap time is a much smaller percentage - but yes. Either way, what I was really getting at however, was whether the FK8 vs FL5 difference in lap time at Suzuka was just purely down to how well the final corner exit on...
