I had a brake squeak on left turns for a day or two until I didn't.

Something something shielding was what I found digging around. It resolved itself before I started fretting too much.

It wasn't as bad as getting a rock jammed in the caliper though. That was an ear bleeding experience


RV6, PRL, MAP, 27WON... All good options. I have PRL v2 dp (soon to be fp too) and now that it's broken in, I don't want an exhaust now unless it's an fk8 retro
i had the same squeak back in the summer, solved by putting an ass load of brake grease on new caliper hardware. it's not the traditional brake squeal that the wear indicators make; it's more like a cleaning a mirror with windex type of squeak.

super annoying though, makes me feel like i'm driving a shitbox. like when my rear sway bar end link nuts wouldn't torque down. every bump was a nice loud clunk. i stopped going to car meets until i eventually resolved the issue with a 3ft breaker bar.

i'm leaning towards 27won's dp/fp combo. good deal, solid construction. plus 200 cel cat vs 300 on rv6/prl. so if i get the tune w pops it'll be easier to get the free cat delete. that's the closest i'll be able to get to catless unless one pops up on the classifieds here.

After a lot of searching, settled on this phone mount. Love how it fits in with an almost OEM look.

Got four new tires Velozza ZXV4 ( no pics been raining on and off cars dirty) these are high performance all season so far they’re pretty grippy good in the rain ( since it’s been raining all morning) I’ve read all of the reviews on these tires and all where good
my last tires where sumos which only lasted 20k with tire rotation at every 5k and didn’t handle very well I won’t buy sumo’s again
but so far the Velozza are pretty good

my civic fell off the lift during oil change and got totaled in my dream.
Got up and checked on my car and it was all good.
Lol
Sounds more like a nightmare. ? Glad that's all it was though.

You know it adds a minimum of 25wHP! Towel license plate mod ftw! :rofl:

It is a shame, but not unexpected. I've done well to not run up on curbs or speedbumps, but any incline proved to be painful. I took this one too quickly today and this was the end result. But it's only $60 or so, which isn't terrible.
Bahaha!!! I’m so dead, this is hilarious!!

Today, I bought another 10th gen! I wanted a SGP one for the longest time... what started as a discussion about wheels turned into me buying the whole car! And as if that wasn't enough, I instantly added an SES fog module... excited to have a second car to build! This thing is already pretty hooked up, but I've got a few things up my sleeve...

yep. both civics have Q300s. Since you mentioned it, I noticed that the white car, which has a PRL FP and DP, is 5 times as loud as the grey. So for anyone interested in the Invidia exhausts, without FP/DP, they're very quiet and respectful
