  1. Anyone from Minnesota?

    How difficult was the install of the Mishimoto oil catch can? I'm reluctant to do any engine mods at this time so I don't void the warranty (beyond the catch can). I would also like to install Acuity's pedal spacer. The auto-rev matching works great, but I still enjoy heel-toeing.
  2. Anyone from Minnesota?

    I haven't received the official recall notification. Just read about the recall in the news. Sounds like the notifications will be delivered next month. What year and color is your FK8? Have you done any mods? Mine is basically stock. I added mud flags immediately after purchasing. I...
  3. Anyone from Minnesota?

    I bought my FK8 from Tom Kadlec Honda in Rochester, MN and had my first oil change at Inver Grove Honda. The experience at both was fine. I see I'll have to take it in for the fuel pump recall. I'll probably go back to Inver Grove Honda.
  4. Anyone from Minnesota?

    Twin Cities
  5. Anyone from Minnesota?

    I drove mine this past winter and had no issue. You will need to run winter tires. I would also recommend a good set of floor liners to capture the snow and slush. I went with Husky liners, which have worked out great for me. I also installed Rally Armor mud flaps which helped keep the crap...
  6. What did you do to your Type R today?

    What ceramic coating are you planning to use? Have you used it before?
  7. Anyone from Minnesota?

    I would second what the others have stated about taking Highway 35 along the Wisconsin side of the Mississippi. In my opinion the WI side is generally nicer to drive than the MN side. There are plenty of fun roads when you head up the bluffs away from the river (still on the WI side). If you...
  8. Minnesota CTR - out of storage?

    I'm from the Twin Cities area too. You are past the break in period so there is nothing more you need to do. My preference is to change the oil every 5K miles. If you were to change your oil now you will be good to go for the season. Check your tire pressure and reset/calibrate your tire...
  9. What did you do to your Type R today?

    @PrisonerOfDoom Thanks much! You've got a great looking car. What else have you done to it? When you have a chance could you post another images(s), directly from the side.
  10. What did you do to your Type R today?

    I love the mods. Would you mind posting some more pics of your car. I would like to see more with your wheels. Thanks.
  11. Does cruise control suck?

    I bought a new Type R two weeks ago and I'm experiencing the same behavior with my cruise control. I was planning to take mine back to the dealer. Has this been fixed by Honda or will I be wasting my time?
  12. Scuff "plates" or PPF or both on door sills?

    I can't say what option is best, but I am having PPF installed on Monday which will include covering the door sills. I've used PPF before on multiple vehicles and it's worked well to save the paint. I was also looking into the same carbon sill plate as an overlay to the PPF. If you go with...
