Member on here, Gat305 has his installed red if you wanna look him up.

It looks good. I think I may try it red and see how I like it. Might look good if I add the red emblems as well.

Got the @ACUITY cable bushings installed. Wonā€™t say it was super easy though compared to my 9th simply because of the placement of them and cramped hand space. Those A brackets were a pain to get on and off.

Iā€™m loving the feel of them though. Now just need that shifter assembly.

Coming from a 9th I was worried how I would respond to this new SI but all my worries were unfounded. Obviously this is my opinion but it's better in every single way. I'm 35 and love the more mature feel and look of the car compared to the 9th. No contest really.

Small mods so far:
LED interior lighting
Smoked markers with orange LED
Yellow fog overlays
Red JDM badges (front, rear, wheel)
Honda OEM All Season high wall mats
Morimoto H11 Low beam 2 stroke LED bulbs
Debadged the civic emblem
Tinted Windows
Black Gloss Vinyl Roof
Type R Shift Knob
Leather center console / door arm rests
HFP front lip painted black
HFP side skirts
Injen CAI

I forgot they made the Si in coupe, here I am thinking it is in sedan only.

What do you feel? I'm curious because I've had them on for a couple weeks now and I don't know if I can tell the difference. Is the feeling like a slight extra tension going into gears? That way you know you are in gear because of the "stiffer" clicks?

It may help that I had 3k miles on mine before I installed but a few thoughts come to my mind when trying to answer this question because its actually not easy to answer. It's more of a "feel" Basically, it doesnt feel cheap going into each gear now. Where as before it would have maybe a plastic, notchy feeling going into gear (4th gear was weird also and made a clank noise for some reason), now with the Acuity, each gear change is a solid, satisfying click, a smooth clunk that feels deep but engaging at the same time. I hope that makes sense. It's one of those feel mods but shifting is something we do a ton in these cars so it makes sense to improve it any way we can.

Okay nice, I actually do feel that, but it's been so long since I used the OEM shifter and I can't remember how it felt before.

Looks sick man - WOP coupe owners unite! I'm in the process of ordering a Morimoto 35W 5500K HID kit for mine, and will be getting a Downpipe/KTuner combo for black Friday. Also want to do some clear wide markers, but I'm worried about leaking.

Gonna run on the stock boost with the Rev hang delete and early spool for a while, so I don't toast my clutch.

Thanks man. Iā€™ll wanna see that HID kit when you get it. Iā€™ll eventually order a clutch. Maybe for tax time.

Elsiveaura are you still using the morimoto 2 stroke led for your headlights? If so, how do you like them? If you could, would you use the HID over the LED version?
