  1. JDM vs USDM Differences

    Any pictures of the JDM rear tail lights? I didn't know about that
  2. MHI stage 2 finally installed

    Awesome but please get a proper camera mount and keep 2 hands on the wheel.
  3. Trans Fluid - when to replace?

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'm leaning towards using GM syncromesh w/ friction modifier, is the below part # the correct one? Also I think I read 2qts is fine, but lmk if I need more. ACDelco GM Original Equipment 10-4014 Friction Modified Synchromesh Transmission Fluid, 32 Ounce...
  4. Best aftermarket exhaust system that can be easily converted back to stock.

    Also - maybe it's just placebo , however now that my car has 12k miles, I feel like the exhaust has gotten a little louder. I've been running flap fuse pulled for the majority of the time too.. Do others notice this?
  5. Is anyone producing a wing delete kit yet

    Yep, as long as you don't have championship white, all other colors exist on the sport hatch as well
  6. Low Turbo Pressure as a Result of Tuning

    Aftermarket intake is probably not helping
  7. Low Turbo Pressure as a Result of Tuning

    I would go back to stock parts and see if that solves it, and then add one by one parts from there
  8. Trans Fluid - when to replace?

    Currently at 12k miles on my type R and wanted to get the consensus for when to change out the trans fluid? I've done 2 track days and then besides that, just normal commuter driving with occasional spirited weekend drives. Reason for asking, I have found recently that the shifting isn't as...
  9. Is it just me, or is the aftermarket for the FL5 kind of lame?

    Yep these exhaust 'headifold' type setups of most new turbo 4cyl makes none of them that appealing sound wise imo.. One mod I'd love to see (not sure how feasible it is), is a manual hand brake!
  10. Is it just me, or is the aftermarket for the FL5 kind of lame?

    Perhaps that's part of it - the car is so perfect stock, everything maxed out, that it's harder to justify modding this thing.
  11. Is it just me, or is the aftermarket for the FL5 kind of lame?

    Super lame, aftermarket isn't what it used to be. For a variety of reasons too imo. I think the GR Corolla and Golf R have more support. This is all from the guy that's staying stock and done modding, but still cool to see strong aftermarket support.
  12. Coolant Temperature Amber Color (183 fahrenheit)?

    Nothing, you just have your alert temp set too low ,as 183 is perfectly normal. There's a setting within the Log R app to adjust your limit values on oil and coolant temps
  13. Name five things you like about the Type R and five things you would change...

    5 likes Seats Shifter Handling /brakes Consistency of power delivery (better then my old WRX and focus RS) Car remembers to stay in individual mode if that's the last mode you had it set to ( also love how customizable ind mode is) I could go on and on, but these are my top 5 5 dislikes...
  14. Random first-day impressions...

    Congrats! Any noticeable carbon deposits on your valves? ;) Jk enjoy my friend
  15. Questions for the K20C1 engine experts here.

    Regarding carbon build up, Toyota def has an advantage over Honda with their D4S system (port + DI) however it's pretty amazing that Honda has managed to keep carbon build up issues from being more widespread. I also do think that at this point, DI technology is 15+ yrs old now in cars, so...
  16. There’s a Reason Honda Made Active Exhaust, Don’t Disable

    I wonder if all these posts about the car running rough are more related to the sound/nvh vs the actual power delivery. If that's true, it's probably exactly why Honda engineers added the flap in order to provide a 'smoother' sounding engine. Me personally, I've been running flap open for the...
  17. Typical oil pressure for FL5?

    On 0w20 I was getting 20psi fully warmed up idle and mid 70s psi around 70mph in 6th gear.
  18. FL5 creators post chart showing 400 unit production per month planned and 20K orders received.

    Similar to the fk8, I'm sure we'll get more of a touring model with a smaller wing, softer (ITS) dampers, heated seats/wheel and maybe different wheels. Not sure I'd personally upgrade, but I can see this type of life cycle model coming out. On the flip side, I can see acura slapping a bigger...
