  1. CW CTR #572

    I am keeping it for now. I sold my motorcycle finally so that created a little bit of breathing room. The problem with keeping it is that it just isn't practical now that we have a house. Like I mentioned, we were on a five year plan to buy a house. The type r would've been paid off by then...
  2. CW CTR #572

    I made a post for this originally in October. My girlfriend and I were trying to purchase a house that came up. We originally were on a five year plan which allowed for my type r. Buying the house did not include room for my type r. I listed the car and received no interest. I'm not sure...
  3. 1000$ winter setup.

    Got the tires and rims on tirerack.com the rims are 18" sport performance i believe and the tires are sumimoto all seasons. with delivery fee the bill was almost exactly 1000 dollars. The tires are noticably different from the incredible stock summer tires lol, but drive like normal tires...
  4. 1000$ winter setup.

    just about the cheapest rims and tires possible listed for the type r. Better than I was expecting. I will be dailying this through winter as you see it here.
  5. Clanking / Tapping Sound when in Reverse (video)

    I've had all of these noises as well. Seems to happen randomly. I've noticed it pulling into and out of my parking lot at various speeds, but usually when cutting the wheel.
  6. CW CTR #572

    Lol, my point in selling it would be to get out from underneath it. I can only sell it for what I owe on it. Right now that's about 42k. In another month it'll be about 41.5k I wouldn't be making any profit from the sale and would actually be losing about 5k in equity from the car I traded...
  7. CW CTR #572

    4500 miles. Daily Driver. Never raced. Broken in very gently. I've never had the car in +R mode. A house came up on the market that my girlfriend and I want to try to get. The Type R needs to go to make it happen. I bought it for 10k adm from Faulkner Honda in Harrisburg. I currently...
  8. high pitched light grind in 2nd, 3rd coasting

    Yes, I'm over 4000 miles now and the noise is still as noticeable as ever. I thought someone made a reply about it possibly being the flywheel? It definitely sounds like a metallic spinning kind of noise when you have your windows down and are driving near a guardrail. It does go away at high...
  9. For those of us without 3k to spend on wheels

    So, the way it seems is that a lower offset will make your wheel stick out farther. That would seem that it would also create more space between the wheel and the brembo's then correct? I see most of the tires on tire rack listed at something like a plus 35 or 40 offset. Why are so many...
  10. For those of us without 3k to spend on wheels

    I live in central pa. I've only ever had all seasons on any other vehicle I've ever owned, so I figure it should be okay. It doesn't have the offset listed yet since these are new, but what's the deal with offset anyway? I don't know what that refers to or why it matters. I always thought it...

  12. high pitched light grind in 2nd, 3rd coasting

    I have this same noise. If you'll notice, you won't hear it when you're giving it gas. I thought it was just the blowoff for the turbo? I know there is a phshew! sound when you really give it gas and then drop off of it quick, but the noise your talking about is possibly a general bleed of...
  13. Exhaust issue

    Magnaflow cannot be happy with the pricing post.......probably will come back saying that was not official and all that, but I think damage has already been done. If that pricing sticks, there's no way to see it other than they are doing the same thing the dealerships did with adm. Charging it...
  14. Exhaust issue

    LOL! Unless I missed something, it appears Magnaflow blocked me in the exhaust forum?! It says I have insufficient privileges to reply here. It seems they don't want me posting about how quiet and overpriced their exhaust solution seems to be. I wouldn't want to deter anyone from buying...
  15. Installed sirimoto short shifter

    when you try to "screw" the shift cables one way or the other, you'll notice there is some play, but something is stopping you. It's a little hard to explain, but there is a bump sticking out of the part the shift cable is hooked to. At the end of the shift cable there is a "tab" so to speak...
  16. Future Magnaflow Exhaust for Your Type R

    @Magnaflow I saw the video on facebook. As far as I could tell, everyones options on here included something at the very least louder than stock. Unless that's a bad recording, that sounds like it's basically stock volume. I'm sorry, but I can't spend money on an exhaust that I can barely...
  17. Future Magnaflow Exhaust for Your Type R

    @Magnaflow Thanks for doing this! I'm up for R&D in PA if needed. 1) Would you be interested in a Civic Type R Magnaflow exhaust system? Yes, it does need to be affordable though. A lot of regular people have bought this car. Well under a grand would be very nice! 2) What style of system...
  18. Warning screen when starting car up- drivers responsible

    That's pretty much what I was thinking. Between that and the electric e brake, god forbid you should ever have to take off in a hurry in this thing. You'd never survive those 80's movies where you had to jump in and go real quick before you were hit by a train/truck/insert 80's villain here lol.
  19. Warning screen when starting car up- drivers responsible

    No one has found a way around this yet? I hate the feeling of having to wait for my car to "boot up" so to speak.
  20. DD Tire Issue

    Lol, Btw, I'm selling my motorcycle. That will all but solve this situation for me. Just no one has bought it yet.
