  1. [GIVEAWAY] Mangoal OEM-Style Dashcam Giveaway + 25% Off Anniversary Sale

    How is this different than fitcamx?
  2. Who here has their R as an everyday driver?

    A mattress... That's impressive. Honda could do a commercial with that. In my experience the biggest impact to mpg is ignition cycles and amount of city driving. Highway is really good, so fuel map is light on low load.
  3. SBD rotors/pads

    Half the car doesn't matter for street use. Of course it is aesthetics 😂
  4. SBD rotors/pads

    Yes OE is fine, slotted looks great though 😭 This forum has probably collectively tried probably every part out there cheap and expensive except for these rotors. Brakes aren't really the best thing to FAFO with, but there's usually someone willing 😂. Oh well I guess OE it is.
  5. SBD rotors/pads

    These are single piece fronts. FL5 came with 2 pc so I'd like to keep that.
  6. Who here has their R as an everyday driver?

    You can get a FK8LE spare kit if you're willing to sacrifice some trunk space. Or if your insurance covers a tow, flat bed it home and put the spare on there until you get to a shop. Would not recommend the fix a flat kit that comes with the FL5.
  7. SBD rotors/pads

    I've been off and on looking at rotors and pads, scanned the pads thread and have an idea of the more popular ones. Paragon and Girodisc seems to be favorites for 2pc fronts at a bit of a premium, OE can also be found for decent price from dealers if you can find them nearby if you prefer...
  8. Blackvue DR900S Dash Cam and Battery Hardwired Install

    Finally got around to this... I bought the cam and then I got hit before I could install it, so it took a while to get the car back. Did anybody else have issues trying to tuck the rear camera wire into the trim at the top of the window? Sounds like at least one other did, mine is like glued to...
  9. Mikstore fog lights

    I miss having fogs, the yellow glass ones in reflector housings. But they also were the first thing to break. I had PPF on them and it just kept the shards together when a rock decided to end it. These should be pretty nice, even has a stalk. Could've been a button too if there was an open slot...
  10. Acuity shifters for 11th gen Civic platform

    If you don't forsee needing the adjustments, and already have base bushings and the main spring, would there still be a significant improvement in feel worth the expense? Also did cable bushings and detent springs (HR). This was like 6 months before they released the shifter. lol
  11. RTA Filter tool?

    At least OP got their answer on pg3
  12. RTA Filter tool?

    If only he realized the variances, conditions, and consequences accounted for in producing a torque spec... On a filter that is used by nearly the entire manufacturer product line for decades. 3/8 turn is likely ok, 1 full turn is also going to be ok. Most will require some sort of significant...
  13. RTA Filter tool?

    Nice. I can't use the cal lab at my work, all metrology instruments are serialized and logged. :(
  14. RTA Filter tool?

    I'm curious what you've learned. The most common mistakes I see people do in early usage is storing it with set torque, using it like a ratchet to thread it down instead of the last few slow turns, breaking loose with it, and using crowfoots and universal sockets wrong. If you tend to get...
  15. RTA Filter tool?

    When it's a twist top, I just use my hands. Instructions are on the cap.
  16. CARB certification in cali. RIP

    I submitted my request in March, and got it in 10 days. If you got an email confirmation after submitting the request, they are probably just backed up. Give them a call and see.
  17. RTA Filter tool?

    You have many stories of how you have no sense of feel, and apparently can't fathom following the other directions. I think it's just you.
  18. RTA Filter tool?

    Torque to a ft-lb value is a spec. Twist by turn is also a spec printed on the can. We aren't saying he's wrong for wanting to, but he clearly needs more information than most of us have because we don't have the tool. Someone said it's fine. It's like $30, he can buy it and find out. But as...
  19. RTA Filter tool?

    That's rich... 1. You're on the internet, if you don't want to hear other people's opinion, get off, or at the very least don't post. 2. In the case of drain plugs, under tightening can cause it to back out, over tightening can and will strip the threads. If you're confident in your arm...
