My wife and I took a short road trip from Richmond, Va. to Farmville, Va. this weekend in my Hondata-tuned Si. The trip was a mix of interstate and back roads. I was impressed to achieve about 41 mpg over the entire trip. Not bad for a manual transmission "sporty" car!
49 here. My first car was a '78 CVCC Civic Wagon. Since then I've had a '86 Civic Sedan, '89 CRX Si, '97 Integra GSR, '98 Accord Wagon, '05 Accord, and now my 2022 Civic Si. Loving it so far!
Me as well. For my old GSR, I have a tool which is basically a 10mm wrench with an integraded flat head screwdriver to keep the valve adjuster from moving. I would usually adjust at 30k miles...
I wonder if it would work for the l15c1.
I've been researching what size calipers the new Si is using. Honda usually use off the shelf brake parts for much of their line-up with exception to the Brembo stuff for the Acura TL, NSX, and Type R. Anyone know the size of the CRV or Accord front calipers and pads?
When I "ordered" my Si, I was told the the dealership was getting 2 cars allocated to them about a month apart. I filled out a little bit of paperwork and put a refundable $500 deposit. A week or two later I got a call from the sales guy that my car was going to be shipped and would arrive at...
Thank you for checking. It almost looks like the 10th gen (top picture?) has slightly more pad material. I've also never seen a backing plate shaped like the pads in the bottom picture.
At any rate, it can't be too long before Hawk, Porterfield, etc. make pads for these cars.
Installed mine the same way without cutting the fender liner. I took the rear wheels off to make the installation a bit easier. I think both front and rear splash guards were less than $80 from Honda. Very easy installation.
I had the hood open on mine yesterday and noticed only one plug as far as I could tell. This is the first car I've owned with LED headlights. I assume if a diode (?) goes out, you have to replace the whole assembly?
Back when I had my '97 GSR, I put Accord wagon front calipers along with Porterfield R4S pads with stainless steel brake lines and really liked the firm brake pedal, initial bite, and overall braking performance. With my new Civic Si, I'm looking just to replace the front pads with a...
4.15% sales tax (VA), Doc fee $499 I believe, title/tags about $75 on top of the destination fee. PWP paint is $395 upcharge so my OTD price was a bit over $30k.
I contacted 10 dealerships in the Richmond/Va Beach, and NOVA areas. Mechanicsville Honda (Page Auto Group) was the only one willing...
Interested on what you think of the FK8 rear sway bar. Found out the stock wheels are HEAVY after installing splash guards today. Looking at lightweight wheels as we speak...
