  1. Improved Racing CCS Catch Can

    I second that the Mishimoto can is a pain. I have to remove the 3 tiny bolts and remove the unit to emply. Impossible to unscrew the can while it is mounted. It is only a matter of time before I lose one of those tiny bolt/screws.
  2. FL5 Track Cooling Experiment: Portable Water Misting the Condenser/Radiator & Intercooler (Data from 99°F Texas HPDE)

    Where do you have the water reservoir mounted? Off topic question: with so many track days what are you doing for brakes?
  3. What's the best money you've spent on your car that wasn't a power mod?

    Alcantara shift boot. Really ups the interior especially if you have the Alcantara steering wheel. The stock shift boot is so cheap looking and feeling.
  4. Official BOOST BLUE FL5 Type R Photos Thread

    At Hedge Hollow Raceway - just south of Kansas City.
  5. Track Pad Uneven Deposits - Advice Needed

    FL5 is stock other than RE-71RS tires when on track and the pad issue described below. About a month ago I did a single track day. A few days prior to the event I installed R7 pads on the front. I followed Paragon’s bed in procedure exactly (I actually did the full bed in procedure twice)...
  6. CIVICXI *NOVICE* Track Thread!

    Had a track day at Hedge Hollow just south of Kanas City over the weekend with HOD. Installed Paragon R7 pads on the front a few days before the event and went through Paragon's bed in procedure twice but, still ended up with pretty bad uneven pad deposits causing a rough brake peddle...
  7. Door locks open and close when washing car.

    Mine is set to off and it does the same thing during a wash.

  9. ATTN: High Mileage Owners: Any Issues with Carbon Buildup?

    I am not an expert on all the causes of carbon build up but I installed a catch can at about the 2,000 mile mark. I come from the Audi/VW world where a catch can is almost a necessity. I should keep better track of the volume it catches but it is not much. I am currently at 10k miles and I...
  10. Fl5 rv6 rear sway bar setting

    What is 5/6 and 4/6? There are 3 positions/holes on each end. Setting options would be 1/1, 1/2, 2/2, 2/3, and 3/3. These are the setting options listed in the installation instructions - I would assume they do not recommend 1/3.
  11. RV6 Rear Sway Bar Issue

    They tried loaded and unloaded. The link binds up like it is too short or the spherical ends don’t have enough rang of movement.
  12. RV6 Rear Sway Bar Issue

    Have an autocross this weekend so wanted the stiffest setting. Either way it needs to be able to go to the stiffest setting with the stock end links, correct?? Worried they have it installed incorrectly. This is an experiences shop that works on a bunch of Porsches.
  13. RV6 Rear Sway Bar Issue

    Dropped the car off this morning to have the RV6 rear sway bar installed. I did not purchase the RV6 end links - was going to use the stock end links. Shop says the bar cannot be put to the stiffest setting with the stock end links - the stock end links are too short. Anyone else run into...
  14. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    Question for guys running track pads and then switching back to street pads. Do you do any type of bedding procedure when you put the track pads in for the first time? Or when you switch between compounds for a subsequent track weekend?
  15. FL5 interior dash piece damage

    1. Go back to the dealer 2. Why is buffing it out a no no? You could probably get all of it out (or virtually all of it out) with a light (not very aggressive) polishing compound and a microfiber towel.
  16. SCCA Autocross Stock Class

    Looks like to me they have not made a decision yet. Don't they normally have something like this "Thank you for your letter. The STAC believes the Elantra N is appropriately classed in BST."
  17. SCCA Autocross Stock Class

    Are you guys in +R, long press or pedal dance??
  18. SCCA Autocross Stock Class

    Congrats on the nationals trophy! Is that your first? Would you mind laying out your full autocross setup? Wheels, tires, alignment, sway bar, pads, etc. This would help some aspiring autocrossers (me).
  19. SCCA Autocross Stock Class

    I went a difference route than most. I do not like the look of stock black wheels on boost blue and also wanted to limit costs. I purchased a set of stock ITS wheels cheap from someone who upgraded and use those as my daily wheels - which I really like the gunmetal-ish look with boost blue...
