I was thinking about 27WON strut bar. Regarding the rear sway bar, if I stiffen only that won't car balance go more towards oversteer? The car is a daily and my wife drives it also. I wouldn't want to change the car behavior and become snappy. Esp when adherence is low (rain, snow)

Thanks for the bushings tip, looks interesting effect-wise. Are forum users happy with this mod effect? As for the front sway bar looks from 3rd link figure that indeed front sub-frame needs to be dropped. I'll do it at a Honda dealership anyway. Just need to figure what parts do I need to swap...

Hi everyone, I need your help. I have a pre-facelift 2019 10th gen Civic sedan, 1.5T, 6MT, standard suspension (not the electronically controlled one). I like its handling except the body roll in corners and the fact that it feels a bit wobbly when making quick direction changes at highway...

I've been using several types of shoes for driving. My experience is relative to using a manual transmission car (clutch pedal). Might be subjective. Anyway here is my 2 cents: In principle for driving you'd need something with thinnest outsole, stiff enough that pedal doesn't dig into your...

To me would be ideal to have Type R Sport level of resistence. Correct me if I'm wrong. I think you can experience EPS off effect by just turning the engine off. Not sure it locks the wheel.(on my other cars Bmw F36, Ford Fiesta it did) I tried rotating it while standing still and it's very...

Apparently yes. I could do it for both Civic 10. Though I am from Europe and I took local maps only.

I managed to complete the update of the car GPS. It took about 30 minutes. All it needed was contact on, not engine started like the official instructions (link in first post) indicate.

Thanks for chiming in and the info. Indeed there needs to be a partition < 16gb. I used a freeware gui disk management utility. Otherwise you have a command line utility in either Win or Linux. As for the CarPlay/Android yes it's a way. But sometimes with the phone multitasking I find myself in...

I tried even with a 16gb usb stick but the same error. Then I starting looking in the installation folder and I found the log configuration file: Garmin\Express\NLog.config That had 2 log files configured: ExpressDetailed.log and Express.log The files were located under...

Thanks @9000PRM for your help.

the same garbage error for my second civic x thank you honda for these garbage support services

Today I wanted to update my civic gps. Following the official instrucitons: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=4qpP6QRT6r105RJ1sELgM7 - I spent like 2 hours fiddling with the usb stick, resizing the partition to 16 gb. But no, it had to be a bit smaller than 16. In the end I managed to get...

To the aforementioned I would add that ethanol (that is mixed sometimes in gasoline) is hydrophilic. This means that it potentially attracts humidity from the air into the tank. It could have been in the gas station or vehicles tank. Water is heavier than gasoline means it will sediment on the...

Regarding FL5 CTR record. I said it on different occasions since they were testing FL5 CTR. Almost always it appeared running together with / bench-marked against FK8 CTR. This showed that either it would not be significantly faster or (even worse) it was slower and they struggled to make it...

Another video, looks to be 3rd to 4th gear grind. Clutch looks to be already depressed when started moving the gear lever:

People are amazed of oversteering on a FWD. But you don't need RWD to induce oversteering. You can achieve it from the suspension setup. With a stiffer anti-roll bar in the back. I think this is the solution Honda employs on the FL5 CTR. It gives better/sharper turn-in. Yes it looks spectacular...

Affordability is relative to one's finances. It depends if this pricing 60-80k is low relative to your net worth/income. Then it's like buying a new pair of shoes. Then if you don't like it no big deal, you even afford to take a loss. And there are lots of such customers - firsf wave - that buy...

Keeping my 19 Fk8 CTR. I like the bold/exotic style, car still amazes me when looking at it, the sense of occasion. No pertinent reason to trade it in. I plan to keep it forever. Money are too hard worked to throw them away on upgrading. Plus time spent installing accessories, ceramic coating...

I've been using 2 x Heyner Ultralift pro 3T scissor jacks. 3T means it can be used to lift the corner of vehicles up to 3 tons. I use them to lift each side of the car when changing wheels. About 1-2 hours. Never failed so far. Care though if the surface is inclined, scissor jacks can flip...

Happened once on the highway while driving the '19 1.5T M/T sedan. The 80 km/h limited zone was over and I was preparing to return to normal speed 130. I realized too late that an A-class was preparing to overtake me. I floored it a tiny bit earlier (to avoid misunderstandings) while in 4'th...
