  1. LE wheels - noticeable performance improvement upgrading from base wheels ?

    Consider the Mita YL Wheels, very high-quality Japanese forged replicas of the LE Rims with tons of sizing options but only half the price.
  2. ANDROID AUTO NOT WORKING

    I was having issues with getting Android Auto to work as well. My workaround that seems to do the trick is to plug in the phone after the car's been on for at least 30 seconds, then unlock my phone while it's plugged in. For some reason unlocking the phone and scrolling around for a sec seems to...
  3. Looking to make my Rs ride smooth

    Anybody here on 19s? I'm interested in how they change ride quality, if at all, compared to stock. I want to downsize while keeping the OEM ride height, but don't like the look of 18s without a drop.
  4. California FS: OEM Headlights, Taillights, Fog Lamps

    Looking to make some space in my garage - selling OEM headlight, taillight, and fog assemblies off of a 2019 FK8. These are all mint condition, basically brand new, with less than 200 miles on each component. The headlights are also wrapped in XPEL Headlight Protection Film. Headlights - asking...
  5. White SI, Yellow Fog Lights or Yellow Overlays?

    Nope, that's the out of box look of those XBs! They are a very very dark amber when switched off (basically black), and then they look like that when you flip them on.
  6. Throttle House: CTR LE vs M2CS vs Mustang Mach1

    The criticisms regarding the LE are really interesting - I wonder if it really does have to do with the way the suspension is set up from the factory. Sounds like the software is pretty intrusive on anything less than a smooth track surface.
  7. KBB Supra vs CTR

    I suppose I would have been the target for this sort of comparison because I literally cross-shopped the Supra and Civic. I picked the Type R because of how much more livable and usable it would be for everyday life, and I'd still be getting 80% of the performance. Plus the launch edition Supras...
  8. Cracked Windshield

    Maybe this is just confirmation bias, but it sounds like folks are having way more issues with the windshield of this car than normal. Is it made from the same stuff as our paint?!? It's just funny to me because in 15 years I don't think I've ever had an issue until now (maybe just luck?), but...
  9. Cracked Windshield

    Thanks for all the great advice (except you 1lastnerve, who the fuck is whining?) - makes sense that temperature change could have caused a minor chip to expand pretty rapidly. I called up Safelite and will take the car in next week to see what the damage is. Luckily the 2019s have no Honda...
  10. Cracked Windshield

    Literally don't know how or when this happened, but couple days ago I noticed a massive 8-inch crack appear around the center of my windshield. Can't remember hitting anything and there's no other damage... just sort of appeared overnight. Does anybody know if this type of repair is covered...
  11. Who's running 19's? Post them up.

    As far as I'm aware you cannot buy them from US Honda dealers, however they are available to import from Europe. See here: https://www.tegiwaimports.com/select-car/honda/fk2/wheels/genuine-honda-19-alloy-wheel-black-civic-type-r-fk2-fk8.html
  12. Calif. mandating all cars sold by 2035 are zero-emission

    For all those people that are saying it is impossible or not feasible, what about the 13 other countries that are taking the exact same steps to do so? Even India... INDIA... has targeted 2030 as the year every vehicle sold will be electric. Norway is already well over 50%. (Cali is currently...
  13. What are some cars you owned before the Type R?

    1997 Acura Integra GSR (rest in peace, you beautiful beast) 1991 Suzuki Alto Works RS/X (literally a pocket rocket) 2004 Mazda RX-8 Type S
  14. American Modified Grille FK8

    Interested to see how this turns out too, though to just to note on the specifications it says: "The 2019 civic need to change type R Conversion Bumper to install this Front Sports Grille." Not sure what that means, but something to keep in mind.
  15. Work emotion D9R fitment help??

    Was browsing around and found some snaps of the 19x9.5+38 fitment on a Subi. Honestly looks better than the 8.5+45 IMO.
  16. Work emotion D9R fitment help??

    Work also makes the D9R in a 19x8.5 +45 fitment, which looks like this on a Megane RS (can't seem to find any pictures of the FK8 with these rims). You can see the lip isn't nearly as pronounced, but it's definitely aggressive. The Megane has pretty large Brembos up front as well.
  17. 2020 grill?

    Why do they need your VIN#? That sounds kinda shady to me...
  18. FK8 Sport Line vs FK2 19s

    Is it just me, or are the 2020 FK8 Sport Line rims exactly the same as the FK2 rims, minus the red pinstripe? Has anybody been able to hunt down specs on the new rims? I know the FK2s are 19x8.5J ET60, with a wheel weight of around 24-25 lbs, but can't seem to find any solid info on the new...
