  1. Gearing Shifting Newbie

    Those lights are not to show you when to shift, but when you are approaching red line. That is too high to shift at during normal driving in my opinion.
  2. 40 mpg in a Si tuned?

    Did my first commute on TSP Stage 1 on map 2 and did 40.2 mpg today. My round trip commute is 110 miles and about 95% interstate driving, but did hit some stop and go traffic for about 10 minutes. I was very pleased as this is less than 1 mpg off of what I was averaging.
  3. Wave to other civic drivers?

    I'll wave at other Si's and usually get a wave back as they are still pretty rare in CT and anyone who bought one had to go through the trouble of finding one.
  4. New K-tuner with TSP Stage 1

    I just wanted to give a big shout out to charleswrivers who answered some questions from me about the TSP Stage 1 tune that convinced me to finally pull the trigger. I just uploaded the tune when it came in about an hour ago and what a difference. I only took it on the highway for a few miles...
  5. For Si Owners Only: Si vs. Type R --- Would You Give Up Your Si, if Type R was Available for MSRP?

    Not with my 110 mile round trip commute Monday through Friday! The Si is the perfect commuter car for me 99.5% of the time. The other .5% is the couple of times I was caught in heavy snow storms. I came from a 2012 Impreza Sport which I think is an amazing looking car that is woefully under...
  6. Does the range in dashboard adjust based on driving?

    Yes it does. I drive 99% interstate and mine says about 460 when I fill it up, and thats an Si. The calculations for the oil life also change.
  7. white marks on armrest fabric

    It annoys me as I am a clean freak, but I actually like the way the fabric feels.
  8. Extended Warranty?

    I think I got the 120k mile honda care for $800 ish. I went with it due to the fact that I put 30k miles on a car each year. I got quotes from https://www.saccuccihondacare.com and gave the quote to my local dealer who matched it. It is well worth $800 to me with the miles I put on a car, but...
  9. Best decision I ever made... 2018 Civic Si Coupe

    Car looks great! I bought mine for my 110 daily round trip commute. I have the sedan and averaging 39.5 mpg since I got the car. My commute is 98% highway. I definitely enjoy the commute more than I used to in my Impreza Sport.
  10. CTR Owners in CT?

    Nope, only had it a few weeks. I use it for my 110 mile round trip commute, so won't do really anything to it aside from tint the windows and maybe a mild tune. You?
  11. CTR Owners in CT?

    Twinsies....I'm in Milford. I commute to Hartford every week day and it is very rare to even see another Si, but have seen a white ctr on 91
  12. Dash screen issue?

    Thanks for all the info! This seems to be a great community and I am sure I will have many more questions . Tint is the 1st thing on the list, then maybe down pipe and exhaust. Doesnt seem to be a ton of options for exhaust though.
  13. Dash screen issue?

    Gotcha. Thanks for the quick reply. So what rpms are you switching gears at typically. Ive been shifting at about 4k based on engine noise, but I have never had a performance based manual. My only manuals have been dodge ram, ford ranger and 02 civic lx .
  14. Dash screen issue?

    No, only 100 miles on it so didnt want to redline it yet, but none of the dots are lighting up. I assumed the green ones should light up at least?
  15. Dash screen issue?

    So finally picked up my white si sedan yesterday and love it! Quick question though, the screen under the spedometer when set to the one that shows the dots lighting up indicating when to change gears doesn't appear to be working. The dots are there but they do not light up when I get on the...
  16. New Civic Si

    I apologize as I misquoted the dealer with the snotty reply. It was in fact the West Brook dealership as the screenshot shows below. This was the response that I received when I replied to their original pricing email stating that other dealerships were a bit lower .
  17. New Civic Si

    I have been in sales for over 20 years and was not trying to low ball anyone. I understand making a profit, but it has to be a fair deal for both parties. I feel like I got a fair deal with a dealership that was very accommodating and that goes a long ways . I put 26k miles on a car just...
  18. New Civic Si

    It was the dealer un Branford, CT
  19. New Civic Si

    The one dealer that had them had 2 black and 1 blue. I love black. I had a black jeep, but winters in CT are rough and I couldnt keep it from looking horrible . My neighbor that has a Masda 3 tried to sell me on that, but while a great car it just didnt speak to me like the si did . I also...
  20. New Civic Si

    Maybe they are clearing them out for the 2019s? Or are they always this scarce? This is my 4th honda. First was a 98 accord lx manual, 2nd was an 04 civic ex, and most recently a 2015 fit ex which was actually perfect for my then rush hour traffic. Happy to be back in another Honda, and this...
