  1. vs. 2018 Accord

    Dang if that's where the front license plate is going to mount, it's going to mess up those super clean looks!
  2. vs. 2018 Accord

    It's so good to finally see some excitement over this car! 2.0T similar to the Type R with a 6MT?! I can't wait! I'm really curious to hear specific details about what mehanically was changed from the Type R motor, and how much work it will be to undo those changes. I'm also really curious to...
  3. 2017 Civic Hatchback - Ugly?

    I don't mind the look of the HB at all. In fact, my sister-in-law was shopping for a Civic, and I tried to steer her towards the sport HB from a value proposition as I believe it's currently the most car per dollar out of the Civic 1.5T lineup. But she sat in both the sedan and HB, and at the...
  4. Want to replace wheels on new 2016 Civic LX but dealership say it voids my warranty?

    What is the stock weight of a base steelie with the tire on it, anyway?
  5. Who killed Kennedy, the KFC recipe.....,

    So if we get like 5-6 more, we should be good to go :spaz:
  6. 2017 Honda Civic EX-L

    Are you gonna be buying the car at the end of the lease?
  7. Manual Transmission Oil Change

    This is not exactly true. There are plenty of posts from people on 9thgencivic who actually prefer the shifting qualities of the sorts of oil you mention (I cannot speak to prior generations before 9ths). There is some food for thought in this thread...
  8. 2017 Honda Civic Si Prototype Debut - Q&A, Photos, Video

    Every automatic trans-driving, family-moving, in-traffic-commuting work-a-day stiff that either won't learn or simply doesn't want to drive a manual. In other words, pretty much everyone in America. No way a manual trans 2.0t Civic Si cannibalizes Accord sales. But if they ever drop an auto...
  9. Buyer's Guide: Should I Buy an Si or Type R?

    What? There are no stock Si's where I live (East Bay Area, Northern California)...
  10. Another Type R video

    Only if he's rocking drag radials.
  11. Type R seat wear

    And it's not just Type R seats but any sporty seat with nice bolstering, really. I've found that any used car I've bought with such a seat has the most wear on the driver's side outer edge of the bolstering on both the seat back as well as the thigh bolstering on the seat bottom. Whenever I get...
  12. Is a honda civic a good first car?

    As someone who appears to be fairly new behind the wheel, I'm sure that safety is one of the considerations most prominent in your mind. One critical aspect of safety is the ability to avoid an accident, and handling in a pre-accident scenario is crucial to avoiding what otherwise might become...
  13. 2017 Honda Civic Si Prototype Debut - Q&A, Photos, Video

    I don't understand where the commentary that making the Si a 2.0L would have resulted in a much, much higher price point is coming from. Yes there would be marginally more metal in the block/head and bottom end. And also likely a bit more metal in things like valves, valve springs, and pistons...
  14. Honda Civic Type R purchasing process

    YMMV but many dealers have a way of creatively bending the truth to suit their business which is obviously to sell as many cars as possible. While it's possible the previously mentioned dealer may actually know already the number of cars they will receive, it seems highly unlikely to me that...
  15. Official: All new Civic Si to debut at LA Auto Show next month!

    Maybe it's just my down pipe that makes me think it's too hot. When I let off the gas abruptly, I get a little pop sounding not unlike a little overrun pop in the down pipe. It doesn't do it when it's cold. Only at fully warmed operating temps. Sorry for the thread derail. Back to the upcoming...
  16. Official: All new Civic Si to debut at LA Auto Show next month!

    I wonder how hot a 1.5L turbo pushing out 210 HP would run. My 2.4L at almost 100 HP/L runs hot as hell. I'm pushing 190 degrees on a hot day and get up to 200 in stop and go traffic.
