  1. Another FL5 Civic Brake Bleed Thread - Ran the Reservoir too low

    As others said, the procedure you wrote down is the way to go. Highly, highly recommend a pressure bleeder (using the dry method which is constantly toppin off the reservoir vs loading the bleeder bottle with fluid) or using vacuum bleeder. Get at least 1500ml of brake fluid at the ready. Once u...
  2. Joined the club… ‘24 CW FL5

    Congrats on the R, itā€™s an amazingly fun car. Over a year later and still loving mine. Youā€™re right about the C7 Vette vs. the R. The R is much more fun between the speeds 0-100mph.
  3. Catastrophic Engine Failure

    Have a 2019 C7 Corvette. Slight engine rattle at 1200 miles turned out to be bad wrist pin. A month or so later a new engine was fitted and car has been amazing ever since. This stuff happens. Warranty is a wonderful thing.

    No, politics is the most shady after drug cartels. Insurance is third šŸ˜‚
  5. Tennessee SOLD $49k - 2023 Type R Sonic Gray Pearl w/OEM+ mods and more

    I considered the CT4V Blackwing as well before the Type R purchase. I had a lot of experiences with cars 3600lb and over so wanted to try the much lighter Type R. So glad I did because the R is a ball of fun at 80mph and below and I just know the CT4V wonā€™t be much fun until 100+ My C7...
  6. Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

    It is just pressed graphite per my receipt. Sorry for any confusion
  7. Authorized Dealer + Group Buy Announcement! HEL Performance USA FL5 Oil Cooler Kit at Unity Performance!

    All parts present and in good condition from my shipment. Thanks for sending the reference pic.
  8. FL5 stock exhaust valve: Fuse pulled/always open - exterior sound clips

    Fuse out for several thousand miles and various weather conditions with no Iā€™ll effects. I like the consistency in exhaust sound by just having the valve open all the time.
  9. Post your FL5 Civic Type R delivery pics! šŸ™Œ šŸ“ø

    Itā€™s such a great car. I wish every car enthusiast could get a shot to drive It enthusiastically. The car comes alive at only 6/10ā€™s, itā€™s a bunch of fun on the streets. Donā€™t need to drive ā€˜directly to jailā€™ speeds to have fun in it.
  10. What is your setup for raising the car up for service?

    Ah, I see the issue as you noted. I have the previous generation SLX and the reach was 60ā€, so for me it is a tight fit. Link for the specs on mine is below for reference: https://www.quickjacklift.ca/car-lifts/bl-5000slx/ At 66ā€ there should be zero issues. Thanks for pointing that out.
  11. What is your setup for raising the car up for service?

    Yep, you put about 1ā€ on both front and rear jacking blocks. Itā€™s tight, but it works. Check if they have extensions available, itā€™ll make setup less precise. I had to use the 66ā€ reach otherwise it wouldnā€™t work with my other cars.
  12. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Iā€™ll be installing the HEL kit in about a month. Any tips about taking off the front bumper cover? Like any hidden fasteners that can break or aggravation u encountered that can be avoided with proper planning? Or maybe itā€™s typical Honda easy? Thanks
  13. What is your setup for raising the car up for service?

    5000 here as well. If you can get the extensions then do so. It fits on the 5000 but lining them up is important if u donā€™t have the extensions. I put a larger part of the lift block on the front car pinch weld (rolled piece of metal jacking point) than the rear since the car is nose heavy.
  14. HEL cooler, Did I bite off to much šŸ˜‚

    Thanks for the reminder. Just ordered the euro dual horn kit from Dream automotive. Unfortunately itā€™ll take 4-6 weeks
  15. What is your setup for raising the car up for service?

    Quickjack for me. No room in my garage for a lift. The Quickjack works great.
  16. Maryland DWS 06 Plus 265/35ZR18

    I too have the DWS06 all seasons. Amazing all season tire. I prefer these over the stock Michelin Pilot 4S summer tire that this car came stock with. I have run many tire brands and by far my favorite all season brand. Will never go back to anything else
