  1. Updated 2027 Civic Type R Gains Sharper Performance, New Meteorite Gray Color, Heated Seats, More Standard Tech; Arriving Soon

    I thought our cars already had Driver Attention Monitor? That is standard with the whole Honda suite. In which case, I think it just monitors your driver inputs and if you aren't steering/braking/accelerating enough, then you aren't attentive? There should be no interior camera Someone correct...
  2. Updated 2027 Civic Type R Gains Sharper Performance, New Meteorite Gray Color, Heated Seats, More Standard Tech; Arriving Soon

    I hope it is. I'd be HIGHLY interested in swapping it out. This is the only change from this refresh I actually like
  3. Anyone have experience with EBC Racing SG2F Series 2-Piece Floating Brake Disc Rotors?

    My rotors are grooved and I'm looking into potential upgrades. These EBC Racing Rotors are catching my eye. I plan on running these with EBC Bluestuff pads which I already have experience with and I'm quite fond of them. Anyone out there who has experience with these rotors? I'm open to...
  4. Head gasket warranty extension?

    I heard one of the reasons this is an issue is because of the way ECO mode is tuned on these 1.5T engines and how it will cause LSPI and strain the head gasket. Really makes you think — because everyday drivers will probably run ECO mode to save gas meanwhile Si’s don’t have ECO mode and this...
  5. Windshield replacement-FYI

    Yeah I just paid my deductible. Here's the thread I made about my lengthy battle with USAA: https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/aftermarket-windshield.59211/
  6. Windshield replacement-FYI

    And FWIW I also went through USAA for my claim. But I coughed up the extra money to have the replacement done at Honda and not through Safelite -- clearly they do not know what they are talking about!
  7. Windshield replacement-FYI

    Well I got my windshield replaced with 73111-T60-305 and clearly it fit perfect because it's on the car
  8. Windshield replacement-FYI

    Just a heads up that the Type R windshield actually is different from the other Civic trims, hence the different part numbers
  9. Has anyone tried powder coating the OEM forged FL5 wheels?

    Thanks guys. Good to at least get some validation that the gunmetal on SGP may not be a bad combo..
  10. Has anyone tried powder coating the OEM forged FL5 wheels?

    I'm dead set on replacing my stock wheels with the OEM forged ones. They match so perfectly to what I'm trying to do with the car which is to be OEM+. But my issue is that I have a Sonic Grey Pearl FL5, and I'm REALLY indifferent to the gunmetal on grey/green pearlescent. In my opinion it just...
  11. Rev Match On or Off

    Sadly I am not. but for reference I am a size 12 and i use the foot rollover method since I cannot tweak my heel over like the real drivers can.
  12. Rev Match On or Off

    Is this car's pedal box actually bad for heel toe? Not my first manual car but my first car learning how to heel toe in - so I don't have much for reference Sometimes I'm really nice with the heel toes and other times i botch them. Always thought it was a skill issue. Am I nerfing myself by not...
  13. Bummed so far with FL5 aftermarket exhaust sound

    IMO, Remus sounds the best. Most if not all of these aftermarket exhausts are way too raspy and just make more noise for the sake of it - but the Remus sounds actually tasteful. Unfortunately it can be pretty hard and expensive to source so I opted for the front res delete and am pretty happy...
  14. Camber Plates with springs

    dumb question, but better safe than sorry - on stock suspension with the strut tower pins pulled, my speed shop was able to get -2.1 degrees of camber up front. should that still have clearance for any lowering spring setup?
  15. FL5 interior dash piece damage

    wow. where is this from? and is it an overlay or does it replace the whole piece?
  16. Brake fluid leaking from bleeder

    couldn't tell you. i can dm them and see if they remember. but what exactly would that have to do with the leaking?
  17. Brake fluid leaking from bleeder

    They are the ones that told me the torque spec was 10 lbft and that's what they followed. What could've happened before that, idk.... All I have are Craftsman 3/8 and 1/2 torque wrenches so maybe I'll have to get something smaller I agree on that last part. I truly think it could be some...
  18. Brake fluid leaking from bleeder

    I did not do any of the work. All I've done so far clean the area. I don't even have the right crowfoot adapter for my torque wrench so I ordered that now. Once I get that I can then verify the torque spec. I contacted the shop yesterday to see if they can check it out. And they informed me...
  19. Brake fluid leaking from bleeder

    In August I had a local Honda speed shop flush my factory brake fluid with Castrol SRF in preparation for my track day later that month. After the track day, I noticed a slight trail of brake fluid running down the caliper. I contacted the shop and we both agreed that it was perhaps some...
