  1. Any of you use a USB stick to play your music? If so, do you convert CD's via Windows Media?

    This works. It even displays the album cover of one of the CD's I used it for. Kind of a bitch to use, though.
  2. Any of you use a USB stick to play your music? If so, do you convert CD's via Windows Media?

    I know most people don't buy physical media anymore so this question may seem odd. I'm a long time fan of extreme metal, so my collection is mostly on CD's. Anyway, I keep running into problems with Windows Media labeling the artist as "Unknown" which to some may think it would be expected, but...
  3. What is the opinion of the Falken Azenis FK460 A/S for the FL5?

    Seems these tire have become available since I last researched stock size all season's . Maybe be better option to buying new wheels and tires as I don't really want two sets, and it's a little cheaper than the Continental's. Are they any good?
  4. I'm about to pull what's left of my hair out researching 18" wheels and tires for this car.

    I've always kept cars factory, but I'm looking into some 18's for this car with an all season tire that has better options than the factory 19's. I'm not lowering it or anything, just need something that fits as if it were that way from the factory. Getting confused with all the talk of hub...
  5. Dangers of driving in cold weather on the stock FL5 tires?

    I'm not going to drive in the snow, but I live in Central Arkansas where it can be freezing one day, then in the 60's the next. Don't want to park the car and let it sit, so it will get driven. Anyways, once the stock tires need replaced I think I'll go with the Continental's that are the only...
  6. Any of you update the navigation in a 2023+ Type R?

    I know most of you probably just use a smartphone, but I don't have one. Anyways, there are some new and not so new roads and by passes here that do not show up on my navigation. My last car had a SD card in the console for the navi, but the Type R does not. I'm also assuming I get free upgrades...
  7. Anyone have random 1st gear lock out at stop lights?

    Seems to happen sometimes and I don't know why. Almost always seems to happen at stoplight in traffic and never at stop signs on back roads. Could it be due to setting in neutral at lights for minutes at a time, then the syncros getting confused or something?
  8. Accidentally put half a tank of 87 octane in my Type R. Anything to worry about?

    Had a brain fart and topped the car up with 87, so I guess I'm mid grade now. Any worries seeing as I drive like Grandma most days and generally top it off once a week, or around half a tank of use?
  9. Is there such thing as a padded car cover that protects from hail?

    I ask because even though I have a 2 car carport on my house, my last car got about $3500 in damage on the rear hatch and quarters by some pretty extreme sideways hail a couple of years back. It totaled lots of cars, put holes in people vinyl siding, busted out windows, etc. Anyway, hail seems...
  10. Random first-day impressions...

    Yea, my car is BB but looks like a Sonic Grey with a white roof in the main cluster.
  11. Is it just me, or is the aftermarket for the FL5 kind of lame?

    Had a 2007 Si and a 2019 Si and now a 2023 FL5, but the aftermarket seems lame as hell compared to the older cars. Is the FL5 just too new as of now to have a good selection?
  12. Anyone feel like lots of people expect you to drive like a jackass because you have this car?

    I've only had this thing a little over 3 months and I get tail gated and passed a lot, especially on country back roads. Can't really do an enjoyable drive, and I'm not driving like Granny. I generally do the speed limit plus 5 or 10 over on these narrow roads with potholes, deer, etc and almost...
  13. Is everyone having a hard time getting parts?

    So I'm guessing that a good fender bender or side swipe is basically a total?
