Use this as an excuse to make a pilgrimage with your Type R to Japan. Find your JDM Mr. Miyagi and get some old school tuning wisdom and carbon parts not available in the states. And do some laps around Ebisu Circuit in your Type R.

Maybe check into Seibon Carbon.

As a wrangler owner I approve.

I've been very interested in seein how Honda tests their engines. Do you have a link to where you got that info?

Unfortunate. Lets hope they have a similar policy in Oregon. Then again, a large part of me wants to wait until the next generation of Mazdaspeed 3's come out. I'd like to be able to have options to compare in the sport compact segment. By that time the price of an Si will have come down.

I've considered doing business with Lithia of Medford, OR. I didn't know they had a no markup policy, I may do business with them after all.

IMO SH-AWD is on par with Audi Quattro in terms of AWD systems. Having had the fortune to drive an Acura TLX v6 with SH-AWD, the turn in is phenominal, if only Acuras didn't weigh so much...

Ridgeline Type R confirmed? On a serious note, its good to see Honda taking steps to renew their image of being a performance brand.

With apple car play the nav is in the phone, also means less off car msrp so I'm all for it.

Why I waited for the si. They have always been affordable and the better bang for your buck than the base models.

So reverting to factory settings when taking the vehicle in for service effectively "covers your tracks?" So it would void it; IF you get caught sort of thing. If I'm understanding it correctly.

If anything you'd just be more likely to get your car stolen.

Forgive me for being uninformed, but does an ecu flash tune void the warranty? And will most dealerships even notice if the car brought in has been reflashed?

I just realized what I said and retracted my previous statement, I spoke without thinking. :/

On forums while tired, retracted statement for being idiotic.

I vote the rep is misinformed. However the CRV engine has enough pep for the weight of the vehicle. I think the engine tuned up in a much lighter car with a 6MT is a recipe for fun in the canyons.

Personally I look for that aesthetic in my Japansese cars haha

Imo the 9th gen Si sedan was the ugliest car Honda has ever made, looks are subjective. I think the new car looks much more athletic.

It begs the question how much is enough. Personally I'm not in the car market for another two years but if the Type R is out of my price I'm not deterred from going for an Si coupe. For the sake of the discussion if a GTI and Si can both be brought up 50hp and as much torque for the same price...

99% of the people who buy this car aren't going to try and make 400+ hp out of the 1.5. On top of that most people who do build up cars know that when you're approaching ~330 lb-ft in a FWD things start to get a little impractical for street use. Namely the thing tries to torque steer into the...
