  1. Civic Si in GS

    Last year I didn't autocross my Si at all but this year I plan to split my time between it and my STR ND MX-5. No major events planned though in either car.
  2. Civic Si in GS

    Yeah, the Accord is huge. I test drove a Sport 2.0T with the thoughts of ordering a 6MT version but it felt massive and the suspension was soft.. The Si just felt so much better and I don't regret the decision at all.
  3. How are our 10th gen Si owners feeling now?

    The only feature the 11th Gen has that I wish my 2019 had is the heated steering wheel. That's it. I don't care for the exterior styling, there is no coupe, I don't want Honda sensing and it's more expensive. I'm sure it's a fine car but it's not for me. Then there is the fact that both 2022 Si...

    Carcone's does excellent work. https://www.carcone.com/wheel-refinishing/about/
  5. Civic Si in GS

    Yeah but pinching Hoosiers is different than pinching street tires.
  6. Civic Si in GS

    I was thinking of 235's but I think the gearing will suck. I'm now seriously considering the 255's because they don't look too bad in the picture below.
  7. Civic Si in GS

    That's the kind of firsthand advice I'm looking for. Thanks! I'm assuming you don't experience any rubbing?
  8. Civic Si in GS

    Interesting. What's your thought behind running 18's? My Si isn't my principal ride so I'll stick with my light 17x8's over the factory boat anchors or spending the $$$$ on 18's so I'm just curious. While I agree the 255's would offer more grip and better gearing. RT660's are wide and I keep...
  9. Civic Si in GS

    So what's everyone planning for tires in GS this year? Find a set of RE71Rs? Switch to Falken RT660s? A052s? Something else? I'm leaning towards the Falkens and since they seem to run wide, I'm wondering about 235/40/17's for the gearing advantage and not having to pinch a 245/40/17 on a 17x8...
  10. Civic SI in STH

    The STR MX-5 would beg to differ. :p I agree on not modding an Si for STH. I don't think it's the car to have. I love mine for GS but when deciding to modify something I went with a different car, my STR prepped 2019 MX-5.
  11. Civic Si in GS

    I had this happen to mine last year as well.
  12. Civic Si in GS

    That was me! The car is going to the dealer this week so they can remove the wheel locks and provide me with 4 new lug nuts at no charge since they lost the key. At least I was able to jump into a friend's C6 Z06 and have some fun autocrossing that day. It's a beast that I wasn't truly...
  13. Civic Si in GS

    ST classes have wheel and tire width limits so that may be what you're thinking of. Street has always been whatever the largest size tire you can fit. Massive Hoosiers on stock width wheels were hilarious. Good to know for sure. Thanks!
  14. End of Civic Si and Coupe for 10th gen

    WTF are you talking about? None of what you're saying makes sense. Honda doesn't care about making the Si desirable as a track car. You obviously know nothing about engineering because you just can't throw in an engine with more horsepower and not increase the size of the brakes and modify the...
  15. End of Civic Si and Coupe for 10th gen

    The Si isn't a hard core performance car like the Type R. Why is that so hard for people to understand? If they did any more to the Si, it would cost a lot more money so then you'd be complaining it's too expensive and you'd just rather buy the Type R. I'll say it again, there are lots of is...
  16. End of Civic Si and Coupe for 10th gen

    Acura is just about dead. Their sales are abysmal except for the MDX. No way are they bringing back a coupe. An Si htachback will most likely happen because the UK factory where they are currently made is closing. That means production for the 11th Gen will be in the same factories in North...
  17. End of Civic Si and Coupe for 10th gen

    You're correct. Everyone bought one to see over traffic but then when everyone has one to see over traffic...Why do you think pickup trucks keep getting bigger and bigger? I love hatchbacks and wagons but they are getting harder and harder to find. Then try and find one with a manual...
  18. Civic Si in GS

    Yup. I've known Mike for 16 years. His car is a beast, when it doesn't break. ;) He's been doing the few local events we've been allowed to have up here since the border is closed. He isn't a regular at the PITL series. They run a good, fun series but the classes are overly simplified. Wide...
  19. End of Civic Si and Coupe for 10th gen

    Agree. It's the same thing with colour. People say bright colours don't sell but it's because dealers know they can push people into silvers and grays because people buy last minute. I have a Tonic Yellow Pearl coupe and wasn't settling for anything else so I ordered one but then my dealer found...
  20. What color is your Civic Si?

    I have since exactly one Energy Green Pearl Si where I am and I see other colours all the time. I see way more Energy Green non Si coupes. It was the colour I wanted but by the time my 2015 Si lease was done they had discontinued it. Luckily by the time I was ready to get a new Si, they offered...
