  1. Brake Squeaking a Thing?

    Turn your music up louder.
  2. How can Hyundai get it so right, and Honda so wrong?

    What did Honda get wrong exactly? Just because they didn't install fart cannons like Hyundai doesn't make it a failure. Change the exhaust if you're not happy with it.
  3. Who bought the Type R to keep it relatively stock form???

    I have no interest in modding this perfectly good car from factory. Don't want to affect resale value either.
  4. Am I alone in being okay with the stock exhaust sound?

    I think the stock exhaust note is perfect. I don't want more attention than this car already gets.
  5. What kind of car did you come from and how does it compare?

    I came from a 2016 Civic VTi so the CTR blows it way. I knew the 10th Gen Civic was the car for me so it only made sense to purchase one with more power :)
  6. I am soooooooo glad I waited for the 2025 Civic Type-R

  7. Just picked up my 2019 Championship White CTR!

    It's great to finally see what the new infotainment looks like! What about the steering wheel OP? Any changes to that? I already know about the parking brake indicator. Any other changes I have forgotten about?
  8. I am sooooooooo glad I waited for the 2019 Type R.

    Nice troll thread OP, how old are you exactly? No one gives a shit about a stupid volume knob, more chance for things to break. We've had Sonic Grey in Australia and it looks like Blu Tack on wheels. As for the transmission, we've never had any problems with that. Oh, and good things don't...
  9. 1st Gear

    Thanks guys, I really appreciate your input.
  10. 1st Gear

    Care to explain?
  11. 1st Gear

    My conclusion is that the only way to get a smooth shift is to change between 3-3.5k rpm.
  12. 1st Gear

    Yep, I find if I shift into 2nd too quickly, it jerks/hops. Am I being too hard on myself in wanting to shift into 2nd perfectly every time without having to use synchros? By this I mean that notchy feeling when it doesn't smoothly pop into place.
  13. 1st Gear

    Thanks for your input guys. I thought it's something I was doing wrong.
  14. 1st Gear

    Whilst we are in this topic, can someone tell me what rpm is ideal to shift from 1st? Sometimes I get a perfect shift whilst other times it feels jerky and notchy. Again, not a manual noob but why are my shifts so inconsistent? Am I shifting too quickly before releasing the clutch perhaps? Do...
  15. Upshifting on hills

    Great thread OP, I noticed the same thing.
  16. 1st Gear

    Thanks all, it is my first performance FWD so it's something I have to get used to. Second gear I find it is very forgiving, you can almost reach crawling speed without stalling which I LOVE.
  17. 1st Gear

    So guys, I don't know if this has anything to do with me being a pussy foot or not but what's the go with 1st gear? It goes absolutely nowhere. Is this normal? Am I not revving it hard enough? This car has got me confused.
  18. Do you allow food in your R?

    No food, drinks, vapes, cigarettes, make-up or animals go near my car but being an owner of a canine, it's near impossible to avoid their hair from transferring into your car. Luckily, it's relatively easy to remove from the front seats.
  19. Pros and Cons of the Type R

    How is that possible? Every review I've seen also says the turbo lag is quite high.
  20. Pros and Cons of the Type R

    I'm not sure what to think of the TD04 turbo. It requires a lot of revs to get it spooling and I'm not one to drive very hard. I normally shift anywhere between 3-4k RPM so I'm not sure what the point of a turbo is? Can anyone shed some light on this? At least the VA WRX has a smaller turbo that...
