This was technically last weekend... I hit up the Hondata Jailbreak Event in San Antonio, which just happened to be on my birthday. Car is still stock, so I loaded the 93 octane tune and stage 1 pops/burbles and hit some of the curvy Texas Hill Country roads west of San Antonio. Definitely makes a difference and even my wife likes the pops.

It’s funny. We test drove a Type-S before we bought the FL5 (seats were the big no-go for us), and the first time it popped she lost her mind. ā€œWhat was that! That was intentional! Well I DON’T like that at all. Does it do it all the time?!.ā€ Hehe

Different strokes for different folks

Changed the coolant reservoir today, surprisingly easy install with just a tiny bit of lost coolant. Didn’t have to remove any brackets and all the hoses broke their seal and twisted off easily.

That is my favorite OEM looking reservoir. It's what Honda should of made and used.

PRL Rear Motor Mount. Install would have been way easier if I didn't have my jack stands on their lowest level lol

For those that installed the RMM yourself, how were you able to get the horizontal bolt off the OEM one? I tried doing the install yesterday. The bolt was loosen but I didn’t have enough space to pull it out, so couldnt finish the install.

If you have an aftermarket front pipe you'll need to remove it. If you still have the OEM front pipe and its not hot, you can just push up on it a bit and you'll be able to remove the bolt.

Okay thanks! I tried doing that but maybe I just gotta push harder.

I was able to wiggle the RMM out after removing the vertical bolt and loosening the horizontal bolt (if I recall correctly, I did not remove the horizontal bolt completely out, or wiggled a bit, then took it out? I vaguely recall having to push on the pipe)

btw, to tighten the bolt back to specs, I had to get a "crowfoot" adapter to get my torque wrench in there

I feel naked without my Paramilitary 2. I can’t stand having to waste time crossing the shop for a knife just to open a box or something. Really good knives for the price.
Agreed and love my Spydercos ! Best slicers and so thin behind the edge . The Para 2 is actually my favorite spyderco the Military 2 in the picture is a little bigger then I like but bought it just to add to my collection since it’s a Sprint run and in 15v blade steel.

I had to pry a little either direction to get mine out too. Took a little force but it got done.
Yeah it’s hard to get leverage on your back, but maybe I’ll try again this weekend. Thanks!
