  1. Mazdaspeed 3 is a possibility again

  2. Most optimal RPM for stock 2017 Si when starting to drive?

    When I start to drive, I don't idle and usually keep it at about 2000 RPM, with as little engine load as I can muster (despite the annoying 100-something-foot steep uphill right at the beginning), until the engine is warmed up. That 2K number is just something I picked intuitively, but thought...
  3. Will the '17 hatch spare fit the Si?

    Does anyone know for sure if the 17-inch donut spare for the hatch will fit the (rear of) the Si? Has anyone actually done this? Thinking about getting one, but wanted to be as certain as possible... TIA P.S. So looks like the OEM kit is finally available at hondapartsnetwork.com... think...
  4. Any way to fully mirror an Android phone to the main touch-screen?

    Searched the 'Audio / Nav / Electronics' forum but most results are from last year... It seems that it is impossible (i.e. nobody have found a way to do it yet), but just thought I'd ask explicitly, since I'm sure my search wasn't nearly thorough enough. :oops: I realize there are various...
  5. Working with redlinegoods.com on custom armrests

    As some of you might know I've been looking to replace the cloth armrests (both on the front doors and the center console) for a while. Options considered: Get correspondent Honda leather parts from the EX-L or Touring. Problem: as mentioned earlier, Honda's price for the door armrests for...
  6. Any way to switch from 'ON' back to 'ACCESSORY' mode?

    Feels like a stupid question, but is there a way to do this? In all of my previous cars, if I have radio playing and the car is running, and I turn the ignition off - to the 'ACCESSORY' mode, not all the way off -- the radio would still be on/keep playing. In the Si, it seems the only way that...
  7. Driver-side door handle -- weird sound

    Having nothing better to do this morning :), I noticed that the driver-side door makes this strange faint metallic clicking sound when pulled on slowly (with the door already opened, so that the opening itself doesn't interfere): https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7zi594MsaKeMG1Nb1kzZ0JIc0E...
  8. Happy July 4th :)

  9. Si señoras y caballeros!

    Finally got mine last night!! Here's how the search/negotiations went... Started emailing a bunch of dealers over the past few days aggressively (just got tired of waiting doing nothing) and eventually narrowed it down to two, one was Honda Morristown in TN (influenced by this post), and the...
  10. From 2004 TSX to 2017 Si

    Got to test-drive it finally. Wanted to make a quick review specific to differences between the Si and my (stock) 2004 TSX, in case someone else is interested/in a similar boat. Here's a very brief "basic specs" comparison I put together earlier. Disclaimer: I'm no expert by any stretch of...
  11. Spare tire kit on hondapartsnetwork

    Did you guys see this? http://hondapartsnetwork.com/assembly/48/4/4/11/8/26374/2017-Civic-Sedan-SI-6-Speed-Manual-Temporary-Wheel-Kit Is anyone who has the car already is getting this? I'm definitely planning on it. It should just fit right in, right? * Edit * dammit it says "Not for...
  12. Bought without a test drive?

    So looks like many people got one without test-driving it first... I thought of doing that as well, but after I got to sit in one yesterday, now I'm suddenly glad I'll have the chance to test-drive one before buying. The seat was great, the shifter felt very clean and short (very much like my...
  13. More official Si info released - powertrain, chassis, etc.

    A whole bunch of press releases just appeared on hondanews.com: http://hondanews.com/honda-automobiles/channels/civic-si/releases/
  14. "off-the-truck" -- how long will that option last?

    Does anyone know, or can anyone project based on the recent releases, for how much longer will deliveries of "fresh" Si's continue? Would I still be able to order a car and get it with, let's say, less than 5 mi on the odometer 2 months from now? 3, 4, ...? (Sorry if it's been asked/answered...
  15. 2017 Civic Si Specifications & Features

    Just posted at: http://hondanews.com/releases/2017-civic-si-specifications-features
  16. Nothing on the Si in Geneva?

    Haven't seen any mentions in the CTR forum, and it's probably unlikely that there's any new info on the Si, but just thought I'd ask anyway, just in case... :)
  17. Poll: rattles/squeaks/creaks/etc.?

    After seeing a few threads about these issues, the number of people replying with "me too!" type of posts scares me a bit. One of Honda's hallmarks has been exactly the opposite -- absence of any such noises, even after many years/miles. (Our 1999 CR-V is beginning to fall apart in some other...
  18. Si's (historically) available colors?

    Just trying to anticipate, for utter lack of patience :), which colors would be offered for the new Si... I haven't tracked the past releases much, so if someone knows what the exterior color options for the previous 2 or 3 model years were, will you please share? I'm guessing - and this is...
