  1. After having a 6-speed manual for almost a month, I had a CVT for 3 days.

    My Turbo Sticker says otherwise buddy! As for MT vs Autobox/CVT. My first real car was a manual and I drove that for 10 years. But when it came time to buy a new car, it's really hard to find a manual transmission in the trim levels you want. Getting a 6 speed in the touring trim would have...
  2. JDM Front Plate?

    Well Japan is still in charge of the powertrain.
  3. Rumors swirl.... 2016 Civic Si 2.0T with about 230hp.

    DCT are great and all, but at the end of the day, a lot of people just like driving a manual. I am not looking to redline the thing at ever stoplight so why should I care? A few more MPGs? Sure, save the environment. Maybe I am just old fashion, but a computer on 4 wheels is not my idea of...
  4. DIY oil change easy on the Civic?

    I had a hell of a time getting the oil filter off my car. But other than that, I replaced the factor fill with Pennzoil ultra platinum at about 3500 miles. It was all pretty easy after getting the filter off lol.
  5. Stock Tire Replacement Thread. Please Review tires you have replaced OEM shoes with :-)

    Sooo, thank you for being a guinea pig for the rest of us. I am sure many of us would love to know how the shoes you replaced your OEM rubber with worked out. Don't be scared to vent a little about how bad OEM tires usually are!
  6. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    It will fit nicely in the footwell of the backseat. It's propped up of course, but easy access and it won't slide around.
  7. The Best 2016 Honda Civic TV Commercial Ever

    Some people like cars that actually just work lol. Infotainment issues aside lol. Could someone explain to me why Thailand get's all the cool shit?
  8. Anyone know what the top speed limiter is set to on the 1.5T models?

    I think the limiter has more to do with the CVT than anything else. My understanding is that CVT's just don't do well with long periods at high output.
  9. DIY oil change easy on the Civic?

    You will probably be fine, but you should consider getting torque wrench regardless since you can't account for variables in the crush washer.
  10. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    Yea, it barely clears the mirror right now, so any tighter and it wouldn't fit.
  11. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    It doesn't crease no, it is a pretty tight fit, and yes it folds like an accordion. It will kind of slide down into place and then you push up.
  12. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    This one is made by covercraft and is the blue color. They have silver, gold, pinkish, and a very light green.
  13. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    Sorry this took so long, I am an accountant so the last few days have been ... busy lol.
  14. So my custom sunshade finally came in the mail. No more hot car!

    I got it after dark, but I will post photos with it deployed tomorrow when I have some sun to block. I tried it out tonight and I was happy with the fit. It's made by covercraft. These things are pretty much the first thing I buy with a new car.
  15. NSX First Test - Motor Trend

    I can't be the only one who just wants a Honda badge on it. I know Acura wants to call this their car, but come on, this is a Honda, and it does Honda little good to have their halo car with all their technological achievement not have a Honda badge on it.
  16. Car Detail Package

    It sounds like a "ming mirror finish". I don't believe anything applied to paint will last longer than 6 months, and that's assuming your application was perfect. I have applied sealants/wax to my car and had them last anywhere from 3 weeks to 6 months. Whatever this is just ... blah. 500...
  17. Rust Proofing

    Now that I think about it, it doesn't surprise me because that was before Ford made the aluminum change over on the F-150 I think. Aluminum ... which is what our honda's are mostly made out of, is very resistant or rust.
  18. Rust Proofing

    He bought a Ford, what did you expect? :stirthepot:
