  1. Practical Justifications for the Type R

    The Type R will do fine for most things. I definitely use and abuse mine. It works well enough for my catering and handyman side gigs. I've hauled plenty of food in the hatch as well as bags of concrete, tile, dirt and a large job site table saw. Get the all weather mats and it makes clean up...
  2. What did you do to your Type R today?

    You'll definitely like it. My only advice is you really need to make sure that visor is pushed into the dash all the way or it won't clip in properly and the visor will keep popping up. Gotta ram it home and it'll clip in nice and snug.
  3. What did you do to your Type R today?

    I didn't notice any difference or even knew there was a reflection issue with the stock plastic dash visor.
  4. What did you do to your Type R today?

    Got some parts from overland designs.
  5. My only complaint: weak A/C

    My ac seems to work well enough in the Texas heat. It does take a bit of effort for it to cool in slow traffic but it gets quite cold if I'm on open highway for any length of time. I'll keep it at 72 but I have to change it to 78 if I'm on the highway without traffic.
  6. Looking to install a heat blanket on the turbo

    It's only worth doing the install yourself if you plan on also replacing the downpipe at the same time. You literally have to remove the downpipe to install the turbo blanket.
  7. Please list what exhaust you have, and your experience with it.

    I have a remark unresonated midpipe. Not sure if it'll work for you though.
  8. Almost had it

    Got mine from Honda of Denton as well. It was back in December 2017 when there was still a ton of hype. Paid $2500 over MSRP but at least it came with tint, illuminated door sills, all weather floor mats, all weather trunk mat and car cover. Over MSRP is never ideal but I didn't have to travel...
  9. Scraping noise from front of car

    My car sounds exactly the same but I couldn't find a pebble. I don't think it would matter that much though since the parking lot at the hospital I work at is filled with gravel.
  10. Loud Metal Scraping Sound

    I have the same issue but it's only with the steering wheel turned full lock to the left in reverse. I'm on after market wheels though.
  11. How often do you see the CTR?

    Just got back from Sydney, Australia and saw 3 Type R's. Still have yet to see one in DFW outside of a dealership or a cars and coffee.
  12. Any warranty declined due to KTuner or other ECU tuning tools?

    I had to bring my type r in for warranty work (leaking valve cover gasket) and I was tuned, had Honda hack installed and the rest of my mods on the car and they fixed the valve cover gasket no questions asked. The service advisor was more concerned that I gave them a 5 star rating. I'm not going...
  13. CTR Dealership Nice List for Texas Area

    I got mine last year in December at Honda of Denton for MSRP + $2500 in accessories and includes their "lifetime warranty." Accessories included all weather mats, cargo mat, car cover, window tint and illuminated door sills. Had not talked to them at all previously just walked in after seeing...
  14. Valve cover gasket leaking on '17 Type R

    Just got back from the dealership. It was a leaking valve cover gasket and it was replaced under warranty.
  15. Valve cover gasket leaking on '17 Type R

    Just did my first oil change at 6000 miles and I noticed oil on the engine block under the valve cover on the firewall side. I remember checking for this back at the 3000 mile mark and it was clean at that time. I've had a catch can since 500 miles.
  16. Isn’t always Black and White!

    It depends how dirty it is. If it's light dust then it looks shiny from far away but up close you definitely see all the dust.
  17. Please list what exhaust you have, and your experience with it.

    So it has been a few weeks since I installed my unresonated Remark Spec III exhaust. I have never had an after market exhaust on any of my cars in the past so I think the exhaust is rather loud. Had some weird rattles and vibrations for about a week but they have gone away. I think the exhaust...
  18. Isn’t always Black and White!

    I have a CBP CTR that is ceramic coated and it looks absolutely beautiful for the few minutes that it stays clean. Still collects dust even when it's in the garage. So it literally only stays clean for a few minutes after it gets washed. Used to bother the hell out of me but now I just don't...
  19. Any thoughts on Remark Exhausts?

    So it definitely weighs less than 53lbs. The UPS shipping label had the entire box at 53lbs. So I guess 53lbs minus a large cardboard box, a small cardboard box, hat and a shit ton of bubble wrap.
  20. Any thoughts on Remark Exhausts?

    Audio is best with headphones. Again, I tried my best. This time I found my old Canon Vixia HFR42 video camera. Audio quality is better than my Galaxy S9.
