Whatever they have or haven't done, they really need to have resolved the grind and lockout issues otherwise a lot of buyers are going to be unhappy!I'm like 85% sure the the transmission is essentially the same as the FK8 + slightly reinforced hears for the extra 10 HP + lighter flywheel + rev matching to 1st gear.
^ wrong thread….I wonder what actually causes it, because obviously there are many manual transmissions without this issue
Did the S2000 have anything like this? If so, clearly it's a Honda issue. But if not, clearly Honda knows how to design a transmission that doesn't do this
Don't want to get off topic here but just to quickly chime in, I had K20A and had occasional 2nd gear grindI wonder what actually causes it, because obviously there are many manual transmissions without this issue

Never owned a previous Honda but I have seen people who owned Honda talk about it. Apparently for whatever reason they don't design the transmission to be hard shifted, so you have to be gentle and not powershift. I've heard of people having the same problem with the Honda 2000s and other models.I wonder what actually causes it, because obviously there are many manual transmissions without this issue

I dont know who would drive this thing in the winter anyway. Thats type r abuse.No issues with my FK8 either
Back on topic!
So far it seems EDM + CDM = heated seats
USDM + JDM = no heated seats.
Next question is what markets get Bose.
I drive mine in the winter because I have no other car lol but tbh I've never had any issues in the winter, the seats seems to trap heat really well so I've never found myself wanting heated seats. I will say though that I wish we had a heated steering wheelI dont know who would drive this thing in the winter anyway. Thats type r abuse.
If I do end up getting one I'll likely winter drive it as well. Will I be bringing it to a touchless car wash just for the underbody rinse every week during the winter? Yeah, probably LOL.I dont know who would drive this thing in the winter anyway. Thats type r abuse.
