  1. 2024 Garmin update

    Don't forget to update your navigation map library, especially for the post-refresh folks.
  2. Risky using ADS module if current is too high ?

    Not an expert in how the ADS module functions in controlling the compression and rebound damping, but I'm assuming a higher current sent through the system sets a more aggressive valve profile to control how fluid moves through the damper piston. Is this correct? Experimenting with the LE ADS...

  7. Car cranked but couldn't start, red indicator blinked under temp gauge

    So I was at the supermarket the other day and tried to start the car, but it would just crank without starting. Tried a few more attempts and nothing. The circle red indicator on the left side under the temp gauge was blinking. I then turned the car off completely (getting out of the accessory...
  8. Do European FK8 CTRs have automatic hazards when braking hard ?

    It looks like EDM FL5 CTRs have them, just wondering if FK8 models have them in Europe as well. If so, does anyone know if it's a simple module (maybe an accelerometer wired to the hazards?) that can be installed in FK8s in other markets?
  9. Touch-up paint or filler for scratched interior trim ?

    I was wondering what you guys use to "touch up" scratches on our dark gray interior plastics, if such effective things even exist. Have some stubborn scratches that just don't buff out, normally would just replace them if the parts were cheap or if the labor was non-intensive to replace. But...
  10. If front max negative camber values are uneven...

    The stock front values are -1.3. If the maximum negative camber values for the fronts are uneven, let's say -1.8 and -1.6, then is it better to just make them both -1.6, for symmetry? I'm assuming symmetry is better than trying to max out a side, without respect to the other. You still made a...
  11. Alignment - do different markets have different specs?

    Just a few questions regarding the factory FK8 wheel alignment specs... 1. Do all FK8 CTR markets call for the exact same official alignment specs, or do they vary? Just curious, since I remember when I had the S2000, the UK market had a more aggressive setup that people liked to use for...
  12. Sweidit steering wheel + interior pieces review with pics

    So I was going to originally order the Unity all-leather steering wheel, but they were out of stock with no known available date, so I went ahead and ordered a custom wheel from Sweidit (can be found on IG or FB with the same name), recommended by @shaqin . I've heard of them from time to time...
  13. Replacement washers needed for tranny fluid change ?

    So there appears to be 3 bolts that need to be unscrewed/screwed during the course of a tranny fluid change... - top fill plug - bottom drain plug - check hole plug Which of these have washers, and of those that do, should they all be replaced ideally? Does anyone have the part numbers for...
  14. LE wheels - noticeable performance improvement upgrading from base wheels ?

    Has anyone with a base CTR upgraded to the LE wheels? Is the better turn-in, less inertia, and general handling improvements noticeable in spirited driving? Since these are forged aluminum wheels, did you notice any increased resistance to bending? I like the look of the 20s and the LE wheels...
  15. Recommendations for an aftermarket perforated wheel with no visible company branding ?

    My 2021 alcantara steering wheel is starting to fade at 9 and 3, and looking to replace it with an aftermarket one. I bought the earlier 2017-2019 OEM one before, but wasn't satisfied with the leather quality and lack of perforation (miss this from my S2000). So I'm basically looking for an...
  16. OEM accessory carbon fiber rear wing

    Does anyone know if the carbon fiber version has improved aero, or is it the same exact shape as the stock black part? What is the weight difference between the two? Is it at least lighter? Just wondering, since the FL5 OEM accessory carbon fiber rear wing is completely different (with improved...
  17. Has anyone tried installing the FL5 ADS on the FK8 ?

    Just curious if anyone has tried this. The civicxi forums suggest that the connection ports on both ADS are the same. I've been running the FK8 LE ADS on my base FK8 since last July. And any FK8 ADS works on any other FK8 variant. Just wondering if the FL5 ADS would work on the FK8. :cool:
  18. How to properly clean up damper fluid mess ?

    The front driver side damper started leaking pretty badly recently and had it replaced under warranty. Apparently, the sticky/viscous oil went everywhere and despite some basic cleaning, dirt and grit seems to stick to the residue. Maybe use an engine degreaser like Simple Green? Thinking of...
  19. What is this connector looking thing just chilling behind the grill ?

    Just noticed this when looking at the front of the car. Maybe it was there all along idk, thanks.
  20. Pics of CTR with a half-inch drop on stock wheels ?

    Has anyone dropped their car just a half-inch on stock wheels? If you did, can you post some pics? Thanks!
