While on the lift fixing the bumper I did the prep work to get it ready to go to VIR for the Type R Track Day in May. Mounted up some RE-71RZ tires and flushed the brake fluid. Then it was just time to wash and pack the car and it was off to VIR. Was busy at work so missed out on the Friday...

Long time no update. Car sat parked nicely inside all winter waiting for nice weather. Finally got some warm air back in March so took the car out for ice cream after work. Came out from the ice cream shop to see somebody had hit the car. Thankfully she hung around and gave us her insurance...

I tried that on my Miata. Seemed OK until I had to make quick changes in direction. Only ran a couple of sessions like that before hooking it back up.

I think this is the link Honda Civic FL5 Type R Sport Touring Mid Pipe - MRT

I have them on my Miata for TT but at the one event I've done with it ambient temps were so cold that they were terrible. Looking forward to next year and going after lap records in the Spring temps I'm thinking the CR-S isn't a great option.

That's great to hear. Your brake recommendations worked great so I'm gonna follow your tire choices also.
