  1. FL5 tuning issue

    A legit free trial is good enough for me! Thank you for your help!
  2. FL5 tuning issue

    Virtualbox is free, but is the Windows 10 copy it runs also free?
  3. FL5 tuning issue

    Yeah I'm probably running the same tune--I had Javier from Hondata load the 93 octane tune on my FL5 when he was jailbreaking them in Marysville. Hopefully not something that'll cause damage, I can drive gingerly as it warms up, but I'll need to find a PC I can use to update the tune when a fix...
  4. 2023 Civic Type R Waitlist / Deposit / Reservations List - Check in here!

    I'm not inclined to believe it either--the guy doesn't seem as credible as others, but we'll see how his theory pans out soon enough.
  5. 2023 Civic Type R Waitlist / Deposit / Reservations List - Check in here!

    “Race Car Friends” on YouTube posted a video saying there will be no FL5 for 2024, and Honda will bring it back in 2025 with some type of hybrid setup. He claims he got this info from a friend “high up with Honda”, and that this would cause the 2023 FL5’s to “double in value”.
  6. FL5 tuning issue

    @Noize I noticed the exact same issue for the first time yesterday morning, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it—it was about 45° when we took off, and it seemed like I was missing quite a bit of uumph. Funny enough, the feeling immediately reminded me of an issue I was experiencing with my...
  7. WTB: 1/18 Top Speed FL5 Resin Car Model in Championship White

    Still trying to track down one of these 1:18 models if anyone has one they'd be willing to sell!
  8. Recommended floor mats

    Another plug for TuxMats--you won't see a stitch of red carpeting, but like others have said, these will keep the red carpeting in better shape than any other option.
  9. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    I'll preface this response by saying I'm still within my break-in period (planning for ~1,000-1,250 easy-ish miles, just hit 450 and I've started reaching 4,500-5,000 RPM) and I also tend to drive like a grandma overall (there's usually a kid in the back, get off me)... so I'm hardly pushing the...
  10. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    I was able to meet Javier from Hondata today at the Honda Marysville meetup, and I had him perform a jailbreak and flash--I went with their basic 93 Octane tune for now, and I'm very pleased so far!
  11. We have 4 type r available

    And how much do they want over MSRP for each one?
  12. protecting red seats and carpet from dirt and stains

    If you want maximum protection of the floor, get TuxMats--they cover so much flooring that you'll see absolutely no red carpeting. Conversely, if you like seeing the red carpeting, you won't be able to see any of it.
  13. New Civic Si

    If you're in Canada, yes.
  14. Type R at MSRP

    Some dealerships are the absolute worst, it's true. Don't try to rationalize it too much, just think of their extra $3,000-$4000 for Boost Blue as a "because we think you want it that badly"-tax. Demand is high, and every sale at MSRP yields a profit. If they can pre-sell a car with a markup on...
  15. Jester’s FL5 build journal.

    Yessir! They had prototype risers installed in their intake video from earlier this week too--they're almost comically large... but that's part of what I like about them. ?
  16. Jester’s FL5 build journal.

    I like the white wing, but I also like that people are so torn about body match vs gloss black. I'd debated wrapping the wing, but hadn't gotten far into sourcing CW-like vinyl before it occurred to me that it's a rather technical piece to wrap. I'll eventually do the wing in CW with the black...
  17. Type R at MSRP

    Congratulations on getting the car--hopefully it was for the $2k-$3k over MSRP you had in mind? For everyone else--and no, this isn't me slamming @RacingManiac whatsoever, he got his deal done and it's his business--when a dealership gives you the "we have a sale but we're open to better...
  18. Poor FL5 Owner

    If you reach the end and buying a CTR at $8k over MSRP + travel is the worst financial decision you ever made, you will likely have done very well financially. Take care of the car, make your payments, and don't sweat the rest. This forum gives you (sometimes/often unnecessary) insight into...
  19. Installed Sunglass Holder in US 2022 Civic Si

    Thats a bummer! It would've been a nice addition.
  20. Installed Sunglass Holder in US 2022 Civic Si

    Did you end up giving this a try? I'm tempted as well, but I'd look to do it while installing a Homelink mirror.
