  1. Are Type R front strut bars compatible with non-Type R hatchbacks?

    Isn't the suspension wider on the Type R? I wouldn't think that the strut towers would be the same distance apart if so
  2. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Installed Sirimoto short shift adapter, acuity centering spring, ESCO shift knob and acuity matte black shift boot adapter. Feels like an upgrade over 9th gen Si shifter now. Also installed a Sirimoto Phase 2 strut tower bar. Much less body roll, but won't know how much it improved handling...
  3. Wtf winter tire faster

    We can't assume that's the case until OP confirms. Have to go off of the information given. I put on my winter tires this weekend and notice that my car accelerates better. Could definitely tell that the winters were lighter than my HFP wheels just changing them.
  4. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Winter tire/wheels installed today. I was a little late in my timing, we've had like 16" already this year! But, I'll be well prepared from now on.
  5. Wtf winter tire faster

    You put on a smaller diameter wheel without changing sidewall profile, your speedometer is probably way off now
  6. Official SONIC GRAY PEARL Civic Thread

    Put on my winter set today. Actually really liking the taller sidewall profile compared to my HFP 19s. Considering selling the 19s and buying some 16s with more sidewall profile.
  7. upgrading to smoked tail lights?

    Has anyone upgraded tail lights? I found these on amazon and they look fairly nice. A guy at work installed these, but I don't really like the look of the light pattern
  8. Best balanced car ever?

    More 'standard' than a lot of the other cars on that list in the 180-210 range
  9. Debadged.

    Want to de-badge the "civic" and "sport" off my car, but leave the HFP badge...can't decide if I want to de-badge at all because not sure if the HFP badge would look out of place by itself.
  10. Mudflaps on a Hatch?

    the splash guard style? I was under the impression that those won't work for the Sport Hatch due to the different side skirt. I got the universal RallyArmor mud flaps, should be installing before the end of the month.
  11. Get the Honda Factory Performance package? Or go aftermarket?

    Website lists it at $2499 - that includes 19" wheels w/ black locking lugs,vented brake rotors, spoiler, badging, and floor mats. Doesn't include labor or difference in price for upgraded tires. Do you know the difference in weight of the stock and HFP wheels? I know the stocks are pretty...
  12. HONDA EARTH DREAMS ENGINE LAWSUIT FILED FOR CR-VS AND CIVICS

    I live in S Wisconsin, and if I only drove 2 miles I'd purposely drive a longer route home to get the engine up to operating temps and hold them for longer.
  13. Official SONIC GRAY PEARL Civic Thread

    Ordered them off of Amazon. Googled 'honda civic sport smoked side markers' and DEPO was the first search result. They have good quality aftermarket stuff so went with them.
  14. Official SONIC GRAY PEARL Civic Thread

    DEPO smoked side markers installed. I've got some RallyArmor mud flaps on the way, but will be a few weeks before I can install those.
  15. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Installed DEPO smoked side markers. Not a difficult project by any means - took me all of 10 minutes to do - but the change in how the car looks is fantastic.
  16. Get the Honda Factory Performance package? Or go aftermarket?

    The HFP kit was worth it to me! Not sure what you value the most but the 19" wheels, upgraded rotors, and HFP spoiler were all things I wanted. Didn't care one bit about floor mats since I got all weather anyway. I don't plan on doing much in terms of exterior/cosmetic upgrades beyond the HFP...
  17. Hatchback rear visibility

    I traded in a Jeep Renegade for my Civic Sport. The Renegade has a higher seating position, and is higher overall, and was harder to see out of. Read visibility was poor, and the A-pillar was so wide I had to constantly lean one way or another to see around it... The Civic Sport has very...
  18. Debadged or blacked out?

    I think that debadged would look better on your build. Not many dark colors - I feel like blacked out badges would look out of place.
  19. Sold 2017 Sonic Blue Pearl Hatch - Purchased 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport

    Yes, I realize this thread was necrobumped but... The Elantra GT Sport and Elantra Sport were on my list and compared directly to the Civic Sport and Si Sedan. I think all 4 are good cars. The mpg efficiency and historically rich aftermarket support of the Honda won out for me (as well as...
  20. Official SONIC GRAY PEARL Civic Thread

    Right on, just ordered smoked this morning. That's the way I was leaning so just went ahead and got them. At worst, I'm out $50.
