  1. New product release: HKS Hipermax Touring suspension for the FL5

    Those must be some really stiff springs. lol
  2. SOLD: Dream Automotive Hard-Lagged Turbo Heat Shield

    Would have loved to have bought this, but I just bought one last week for over $300 new! This is a deal! GLWS!
  3. HKS Turbo for FL5

    Not many people seem to run it when you can get practically the same thing in the MHI stage 2 for $1,000 less. I haven’t seen a single dynograph from someone other then HKS or a person say they’re running an HKS turbo. I did do some research and I believe HKS only made a couple of minor...
  4. Exhaust - AWE touring vs HKS Hi power

    First off, I’m bias as a HKS fan and have the HKS Legamax which is only slightly louder than stock. But out of the two you posted… I’d lean towards the Awe touring. Everyone I have talked to that installed the HKS Hi-Power complained about how bad the drone was on the highway. A few of them...
  5. Updated 2027 Civic Type R Gains Sharper Performance, New Meteorite Gray Color, Heated Seats, More Standard Tech; Arriving Soon

    I posted this in the intercooler reference thread in December 2025. Showing how much of the intercooler is actually getting airflow based on dirt buildup. Maybe Honda opened this up a little bit. But if Honda did, you would think they would boast about a good 10 maybe 15% more flow to the...
  6. Updated 2027 Civic Type R Gains Sharper Performance, New Meteorite Gray Color, Heated Seats, More Standard Tech; Arriving Soon

    What is the new inserts part number? Someone needs to order the new insert and post comparison pictures of the two inserts side by side. I’ve already done two different side by side comparisons for the community in the (PRL filter vs AEM filter and PRL intercooler vs HKS intercooler!) So now...
  7. What parts from the 2027 are you swapping over

    It honestly doesn’t look like that much of a difference in terms of air flow so I’m not to worried about it. The fact that Honda didn’t release the percentage of change probably means it’s negligible. If you remember when Honda did the FK8 2020 refresh by opening up the grille… Honda gave a...
  8. What parts from the 2027 are you swapping over

    The front facia for better cooling. Hopefully it is just the insert and not the whole bumper. Strix on instagram already sells the black knobs for our cars for a decent price. Just FYI
  9. Updated 2027 Civic Type R Gains Sharper Performance, New Meteorite Gray Color, Heated Seats, More Standard Tech; Arriving Soon

    I wonder if this new 2027 front bumper will fit on our 2023-2026s. The extra cooling and down force for us track folk is nice.

    What part of Florida?
  11. FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date

    I got tuned at around 2,000 miles and then installed the HKS SSQV after the tune at around 8,000 miles. There were no side effects or anything other than a change in BOV volume. Currently around 31,000 miles. I did send a data log last month to Jester when i added Hondata Canflex but no...
  12. FL5 HKS SSQV BOV release date

    I have been running my HKS SSQV vent to atmosphere on stock turbo for over 20,000 miles and multiple track days without a retune.... and I have had zero issues.
  13. 305mm vs 350mm rear brake rotors

    Is it worth the upgrade to go to 350mm rear rotors if i do about 5-6 track days a year? Ive been looking at the DBA 4000 rotors for the rear for around $340 and the Paragon 350mm rear rotor upgrade is $850. Is it worth the extra $500 for the bigger rotor? I just always see the front rotors...
  14. Who here has their R as an everyday driver?

    100%! The 4 doors and mid to high 20s in miles per gallon are huge. Plus, like you said, super fun to drive! Seeing beat on FK8s owned by young kids hitting 200,000 miles made it a no brainer to daily the FL5.
  15. Who here has their R as an everyday driver?

    The stock suspension is super stiff, the integra type s module just makes it smoother. For example if you hit a bump/pot hole: - Type R module: gun shot sound that jolts the whole car - Type S module: thud that vibrates the car The bigger side wall of the tires on 18 inch rims also help with...
  16. Who here has their R as an everyday driver?

    I daily my 2025 FL5 for 100 miles round trip Monday thru Friday plus on pace for 6 track days this year. Just hit 30,000 miles and have been tuned with a downpipe since 2,000 miles. 18 inch rims and the Integra Type S module make a huge difference for daily driving comfort. It's a front wheel...
  17. Florida FS: PRL RMM

    They’re all like that after a little use. Mine has 15k miles and looks the same. Another friend’s the same.
