  4. Plastic Trim Around Steering Wheel Deformed

    the process wasn’t bad, I did something similar a few days ago (swapped out DE5 piano black trim for FL5 matte trim), took me about 15-20 mins being careful. This video is better, applies to 11th gen, the video you posted applies to 10th gen, link below 1:00 - 8:00

  5. Plastic Trim Around Steering Wheel Deformed

  6. Four point schroth quick fit harness experience

    Someone over at civicX used the Ford Focus-specific one with success in their FK8: HPDE Harness? Part 2

  7. Brake maintenance with OBD scanner

    Yeah, the scanner (or rotating the spindle manually if no scanner) retracts the parking brake, but has no effect on the hydraulic brake line, hence however far in the caliper piston is based on pad wear, it will remain that way until physically compressed

  8. Brake maintenance with OBD scanner

    Did you push the piston back? You still have to do that after retracting the EPB. It’s ok to push straight back, no need to rotate while compressing I really like how thorough this video is: Civic Type R Rear Brake Change Tutorial Video Link

  9. Manual Transmission Feel

    @optronix About the clutch feel for FL5/DE5, I suspect there are some that don’t like how the clutch engagement feels due to the combination of the effects of the clutch damper and the clutch delay valve; those two in combination (subjectively) take away from the directness of clutch engagement...

  10. FL5 Front Camber (Strut Pin Removal)

    Wunderladen Front Strut Locks Link What are your thoughts about this product from Wunderland Racing? I like the idea that it provides some insurance from the bolts sliding around a bit after a bump (ie rumble strips/curbing on a track), but is that even a possibility with the correct torque...

    DE5 here. Coolant temp gauge hit 5 bars (4 bars is where it always sits when warmed up) toward end of last session at track day on 9/8 at Streets of Willow clockwise—happens at 1m02s into the posted lap video. 7 laps in of my 6th and final 20-minute session of the day at about 2:30 PM, outside...

  13. Considering these Forged type r wheels for my car

    They look great on the DE5 too

  14. How Much Track Experience Do You Have?

    Do you have a truck/suv that could tow? I’ve used the uhaul car trailer to tow the DE5 a couple times, works well and not too expensive

  15. The Best CTR FL5s at SEMA 2023

    Spoon’s FL5 had a sequential gearbox, but before qualifying a malfunction happened and it needed to be replaced; American Honda had a prototype direct replacement at their HQ (8 hours away from the track!) and agreed to loan it to Spoon. Spoon sent someone to go pick it up, but this whole...
