  2. steering angle sensor problem after alignment

    Honda dealership reset the parking angle sensor for $180 including the $11 shop supplies for plugging in. No faults and good to go. I guess the take away is if your steering rack is that far off from dropping your subframe or an accident or something, get the alignment done at the dealership...
  3. steering angle sensor problem after alignment

    I reset ECU to factory tune and the faults didn't clear. They stayed on and appeared as soon as keying on, just like before. I guess I'm off to the dealership for $150 diag and hopefully they can reset the steering angle sensor, if that's the problem.
  4. Making the Red-Bull GRC Style Wing

    Honda says the The FL5 spoiler is more efficient than the FK8 spoiler and provides 66lbs downforce at 124mph. Playing with the numbers is fun but 700lbs seems about 10x high.
  5. steering angle sensor problem after alignment

    The subframe was dropped for my trans fix and afterwards the steering wheel was about 35* off to the right. I installed the magic collars and got an alignment today. After the alignment my steering wheel is now straight but I have a Christmas tree of lights. They took a 2 mile test drive and he...
  6. Will Eibach pro kit w/ 18x8.5 offset +38 rub with tires size 245/40/18 ?

    You're saying you "rub running on 235/40/r18" and asking if you'll rub on a larger size? I ask because the 235/40 on 18x8.5+38 definitely shouldn't rub. The 245/40 might rub a tiny bit on sharp turns with compression but should be safe.
  7. Will these fit without rubbing?

    I run a 255/40 on 17x9 +40 lowered no rub at all. Even lock to lock fully compressed.
  8. PPG gear set

    You can see some gears just looking down into the fill hole.
  9. Any one tried burble tune? or pops?

    Pherable "God mode" tunes burble on decel. https://www.phearable.net/tuning-software/10thgencivic/ktuner-stage-1.5-race-tune-non-si-god-mode.html - GOD MODE (Gurgles On Demand with Cruise Main On Engaged & between 3500-5000 rpms under deceleration.) *** REQUIRES CATLESS RACE DOWNPIPE and...
  10. TunerView Freeze -> KTuner v1.2 Pin Diagram?

    My tunerview freezes on my head unit really often. I exit tunerview, then press a button on the steering wheel I have remapped to "clear memory and cache" in Hondahack, then tunerview usually works. Have you tried that instead of unplugging?
  11. Sirimoto phase 2 rear sway bar or OEM Type r sway bar?

    Interesting. Is it metal or plastic? I see those spherical links and conical bushings. How does that even work? Is it an add on to the rear sway bar?
  12. Sirimoto phase 2 rear sway bar or OEM Type r sway bar?

    I have eibach front and rear sway bars but they didn't come with any links. I used accord rear links and kept factory front, though I considered the white line adjustable front links. What subframe brace are you referring to?
  13. Sirimoto phase 2 rear sway bar or OEM Type r sway bar?

    Your factory plastic end link broke? You should get the metal accord end links. Make sure to add a lock washer when installing too! https://www.carparts.com/details/Honda/Accord/Moog/Sway_Bar_Link
  14. 18 si boost leak or injector issue? Or?

    https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/introducing-the-wunderladen-racing-plug-n-play-in-tank-fuel-pump-upgrade.86985/ As many of the civics and other Honda's that are recalled, I've still yet to read about the lpfp actually failing on the forums or anything though.
  15. 2017 1.5t blown head gskt too!

    No, the ethanol itself isn't the problem. It's the high cylinder pressure/ high torque generated from the aftermarket high power ethanol tunes. Ethanol has a higher octane than premium gas, so you can mix about 35% ethanol with premium gas to get the highest possible octane, and then tune more...
  16. Opportunity to Buy 2017 Civic Si

    I think that's a hell of a deal, especially with a good known history! With the money saved, you could put away a grand in case head gasket or other issues arise down the line. If you're often getting into it with a high torque tune or ethanol tune the head gasket could be on borrowed time but...
  17. Unexpected blown head gasket

    I've never seen the head bolts break, or any of the other bolts for that matter. My belt tensioner broke when pulling everything off though. I would be hesitant of a Honda dealership doing the work unless you've talked to them about using head studs you supply. Absolutely dont repair with...
  18. 2017 1.5t blown head gskt too!

    The problem is an inharant design flaw. There's only like maybe 0.120” between the siamese bored cylinders. So Honda in all their wisdom puts a coolant channel between them, then there's like 0.050" of gasket to hold all that pressure. It will blow out especially if you dont have the extra...
  19. 2017 1.5t blown head gskt too!

    I used OEM the first time and and it lasted another year. Used Cometic head gasket the second time with head studs and that combo has held for 3 years.
  20. Fitment for the front wheels

    Not trying to be rude but it's shocking you already bought the wheels without doing the research. You will need to cut your fenders off before you install them, there's no way around that. That offset is more than extreme. Your asking how to make it work and the answer is you just can't.
