  1. Got my Ultra Racing lower rear bar and I don't have a clue

    yes on Spoon USA website it says their collars 'fit all 10th gen' also despite it product name says 'fk8' it fit my fk7 just fine. https://spoonusa.com/spoon-rigid-collar-kit-civic-fk8 the collars are also on spoon's fk7 project car...
  2. Got my Ultra Racing lower rear bar and I don't have a clue

    yeah some stuff I got there was so cheap, I was afriad they were fakes.
  3. Got my Ultra Racing lower rear bar and I don't have a clue

    yes I did the front and rear collars on my fk7 too, and made a noticeable difference in response although not sure I noticed ride quality. unfortunately. also installed whiteline max-g front arms and 24won front upper bar at the same time, so hard to say if those were confounding variables...
  4. [GROUP BUY] Paragon Performance 4-piston 330mm Big Brake Kit (BBK)

    thanks again for this deal. looking forwards to improvenment over the stock Si brakes and the limited amount of brake pads available for the caliper. Ah if only paragon would offer a solution to use 2 piece rotors for the 10th gen Si, like they do the 9th and 8th gen that would have been great.
  5. Which Coilovers should I get?

    I'm in a similar boat and have been looking at the meister r's. https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/update-3-24-17-meisterr-coilovers-after-10k-miles.4200/ There was a good write up a few years on their Zeta coilovers for $1,250 or so and to me it checks many boxes in that it comes with...

  7. Honda civic hybrid 2008 used?

    i have a 08 hybrid sedan myself as a daily driver. I would say some things to consider, in my experience at least, was that the battery didnt do so well and was replaced by honda around 80k miles & maybe 7 yrs of ownership. Not sure how honda’s hybrid battery warrantee coverage would apply...
  8. Civic hatch vs mazda3

    I would just take the civic 1.5t for better overall performance and aftermarket support. If you are willing to spend extra on the Si, I think that’s were the performance sweet spot is. I think the Mazda 3 is a good car, but I also find it kinda overrated with the fanfare from the auto...
  9. Civic Type R Engine Named Wards 10 Best Engine 2018

    That article by the Acura rep or whatever was so full of marketing BS it was painful to read. With regards to Acura’s sedans. to be fair, I think the market today is more orientated towards SUVs, as I recall they are selling better today while sedans are not doing quite as well. It’s the case...
  10. Civic Type R Engine Named Wards 10 Best Engine 2018

    I love the CTR, but I don’t see what makes its engine notably special over similar 2.0l turbo motors. Then again what else on the list is a bit pedestrain. Actually kinda sad the N/A motors were dropped, as that’s one of the things that made Honda special. I am also suprised there are no...
  11. What is your favourite MOD...so far?

    Summer tires are almost always going to be my favorite thing to swap out. Really liking the Firestone firehawks a lot. Good value too.
  12. HFP Suspension listed now

    i don't recall lowering something I do wish that would have been offered for other civic trims, a reasonably priced HFP kit. Sadly, the only options offered so far are, as I interpret it, cosmetic non-functional parts. Agreed the Si HFP kit is a lot of money and brings into question the...
  13. My biggest beef with the CVT

    I dont experience as much lag with my hybrid. Response isnt ideal, but not to the extent where I experience frustration. Despite this, at the end of the day I am still happy with the civic. The next best choice would have been a mazda 3, and I would have trouble not seeing that as a...
  14. Track Day with my Civic Type R

    I like doing events with Speedventures. They offer a lot of events within a few hours drive of OC & LA. I find them to be well organized and reasonably priced. Tempted to drive at their Chuckwalla event next weekend.
  15. My biggest beef with the CVT

    I find it hard to not be in S mode for city driving. I only use the D mode for highway driving
  16. Civic Type R Takes 3rd in 2018 Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

    Theres no shame in losing to the McLaren & Camaro. Was surprised and impressed the CTR beat the Quadrofoglio (and without the Alfa's reliability taken into account no less). Dissapointed it lost out to the lexus w regards to lap times. Interesting also to read how polarizing the manual...
  17. Strut bar flex?

    I don't notice much flex at all on my 1 piece UR bar. Have not either on all 1 piece bars I've had whether from the factory or aftermarket
  18. My biggest beef with the CVT

    Dsg isn't quite ideal either. I've been driving around in my family's leased tt-S (2.0l turbo engine also shared by das Golf R) the past couple of days. Keeping the drive train in regular Drive mode instead of a higher rpm 'S mode', Off the line from a stop, there is still some lag, not as...
