  1. What MPG are you getting out of your Si?

    I consistently get 28.5 around town without being nice to it. On flat highway, I can get up to 45, but on "normal" so-cal highway, I get about 39. Like other turbo engines, uphills kill the mileage. If I'm babying it around town, I can get 34. KTuner 19.5/23 Vit, PRL street intake.
  2. Window seals

    They're a maintenance item for newer Civics. Replace every 4 years in sunny climates.
  3. California WTB - FK8 Type R center console garnish

    I'm looking for the two garnish pieces that snap in next to the center console lid. Please PM me with pics and your price, shipped to 92691. Thanks.
  4. 2020 Type R steering wheel on 2017 Si?

    I've seen plenty of videos and posts showing pre-2020 Type R steering wheels installed on the Si. Has anyone tried a 2020 Type R steering wheel? New part number, alcantara, and lots more expensive. The pre-2020 Type R steering wheels seem to be out of stock everywhere.
  5. Installation of Honda Civic 1.5 Turbo Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can

    I have the old design and had to replace the hoses and barbed fittings with stainless steel versions. Mishimoto acted all surprised when I told them I could smell fuel after I installed the catch can. I just purchased emission hose and took care of it without their "help."

  7. Is Honda MTF that bad?

    I had a 2006 Accord EX6 with a 6 speed. There was a TSB for the second gear synchro and the problem caused difficult shifting in to second gear on occasion (often resulting in missed shifts). No way I was going to let a tech tear my transmission apart, so I lived with it. I read on a forum that...
  8. SI an old Geeezer car

    51 YO here and loving my '17 Si. I prefer manual transmissions, great handling, and a small, light car. Was a musclecar guy in the past, but I'd much rather have a car like the Si nowadays. I'd have a Type R, but it's too "boyracer" for my taste.
  9. What is your single, favorite mod?

    Same here without a doubt. Just getting rid of the ridiculous rev hang alone was worth it.
  10. Does anybody actually like the stock wheels?

    I like them a lot, but I don't like the fact that they weigh 28lb.
  11. Manual Transmission Oil Change

    Past experience with my 2006 6MT V6 Accord left me feeling really good about GM Synchromesh MTF. It worked wonders in the Accord, including eliminating the need for me to fix the TSB synchro issue that plagued that transmission. I decided to try it in my Si, as shifts were starting to feel a...
  12. SO - What's the single WORST feature of your Civicx?

    Warning: Installing an aftermarket head unit in these cars is not easy. I have done lots of car and other DIY projects and my wife's Sport Hatch still doesn't have working backup camera or steering wheel controls after the head unit install. I used all the gear from Crutchfield, too. It's a work...
  13. SO - What's the single WORST feature of your Civicx?

    2017 Si. For me, it's a tie between the touchscreen climate controls and Android Auto. Why they buried the AC controls in a touchscreen when there was plenty of room for normal buttons that didn't require looking at a screen for five seconds to change fan speed I'll never know.
  14. Type R and 10th Gen Civic Interior LEDs

    Ultra bright turn signals to blind the people behind you when driving at night? No thanks.
  15. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    LED interior and trunk lights, grocery bag hanger in trunk, Philips Crystal Vision normal and high beam headlamps, and a Anker dash cam as well.
  16. 2017 civic coupe touring roof rattle

    Civic Si sedan (with sunroof) checking in with same exact rattle. Subscribed.
  17. What are your top 3 complaints with the Civic Si?

    1. Android Auto (and too much other automated/electronic crap) 2. Electric parking brake 3. Rev hang really bad, especially when shifting at high RPM
  18. Would you buy an si for a long daily commute

    The seats in the Si are much more comfortable to me than the normal Civic seats. I mean, a LOT more comfortable. As one would expect, the ride is a bit firmer in the Si than the hatch so if you are driving on bumpy roads every day (or in traffic with a manual), that can be an issue after a...
