Regretfully decided to let the Civic go to help fund my growing track rat habits.
The car has 15.5k miles and will continue to go up as it's my daily. Included in the sale of the car will be:
-Titan 7's 18x9.5 wrapped in Michelins (60-70% tread life remaining)
-HKS oil cooler w/ oil temp...
Hey JLOracing
Was wondering how progress is for you and cooling your CTR on track. I've been following your posts in the hopes that you come up with the magic solution lol. So far, I have the same high flow grill you have with the HKS oil cooler. It has helped but still leaves something to...

This is a great thread. I have almost 2k miles on my car. Have my first track event in a couple weeks. I was considering changing out the factory oil after the track weekend, but I was reminded that there are additives in the factory oil and the dealership told me to keep the oil unchanged...
