Please move this if I put it in the wrong forum. I've seen some pics of the underside of the Type-R, behind the rear wheels, between the back of the rear wheels and diffuser/bumper, the R is completely enclosed. Our Type-S has an open area behind the rear tires into the diffuser area. It...

Mine is slightly lower on the passenger side.

Here's mine at 3800 miles, hasn't changed since i got it. I'm borderline too wide for these seats, have to fix that. Excuse the cat hair on the black.

one thing that these cars have that prevent theft that many don't. a 3rd pedal. a vast majority of the scum that steal cars can't drive a manual trans. If you're very concerned about someone trying to get into the cars network, de-pin either terminal 6 or 14 and tuck it up into the wiring...

Every winter set I've had, on 3 different cars now, when driven above 55 degrees, the sipes begin to, for lack of a better term, melt into 1 "block". The sipes are what give the tires the grip in snow/ice. I've run only winter "performance" tires, H or V speed rated. I routinely drive at...

Does EX/Mob have 93 octane? I have to go to local Quick Chek stations, the only ones on my regular drives that have 93.

The sensors that came with my package from Tire Rack worked fine, about 1.5 miles, they all picked up and read fine. I have the Raijin's 18x8 +42. I have only noticed the steering is much lighter than with the stock wheels, and the way the steering feels under hard acceleration is different...

Not sure if what I'm hearing is the same. Yes, I have the engine vibrations transmitted to the chassis under moderate to heavy load in 1st and 2nd. I hear, what I'll call a buzz, only on throttle, what I attribute to the HPFP regulator or injectors (more likely the former) When off throttle...

So far in cold weather (low 20s a few mornings) no change in clutch feel. My '04 and '17 6-6 Accords both changed feel in cold weather. The '04 I removed the delay valving, it really didn't change the feel much at all, the '17 I left alone. Both had the LUK dual mass flywheel, with the...

I find it just fine. Lighter than my original clutch (140k) S2000. It is one of the easiest manual cars to drive in traffic, if you happen to get stuck in that situation. The rev match system works great in that situation. I wish it didn't have the delay valves, but that is becoming an...

If it's a slight pulsing sound, it may be the vacuum pump recovering after applying the brake. I have not heard this in mine.

I noticed this too, my driveway is slightly sloped toward my garage. Parked in 2nd, it rolled forward about 4 feet. I guess the lower compression of the turbo engine isn't enough to hold it. My s2000 will hold position in 3rd on the same place in the driveway. As a side note, never place the...

What I like: Ride, mostly in comfort. I may run in sport with winters, they're noticeably softer. Brakes! By far, the best feeling, operating brakes of any car I've owned. Makes my S2000 brakes feel terrible, by comparison. Individual settings capability. Comfort ride; Sport+ engine...

The ITS doesn't have torque steer, in the same way a regular fwd car, with an open diff would. With the lsd, the two wheels will pull the car exactly in the direction the car is steered in, it doesn't fight you, if you turn the wheel it will go where you point it. So you have to be careful...

The console trim panel: 83431-3S5-A21ZA from Acura parts for less is 35.69 pre shipping. I've been thinking about ordering it and sending one in.

I've been using mine below 45, but.... I leave my garage in the morning, which is in the upper 50s to mid 60s, take it easy the first 5-7 miles and not push it hard in other corners on my way to work. It was noticeable the lack of grip in low 40s, rainy conditions, not hydroplaning but turning...

My '03 S2000 has no rev hang, cable throttle (best IMO), '04 S2k is cable throttle also, correct? My '03 still has its original clutch at 140k, it picks up a bit high, but doesn't slip. Every time i drive it now I have to re calibrate myself to "drive it like you hate it" to rev the snot...

My 1 month of ownership will be on the 20th. I love the car, a few tiny niggles. - homelink, the three ounces it weighs isn't that much. --wish it would have a more cable throttle "feel", like my s2k, that 2-3, 3-4 rev flare, whether rev match is on or not is annoying. - fuel tank is...

I need to read the tire protection I took on my car. I just rashed the crap out of my LF wheel. In my sister's driveway, lined with damned Belgian block. I guess I'm not used to the extra track width compared to my old car. I feel so old and stupid. 519 miles. :doh: Mangled the outer...

I'll be running Enkei Raijin, 18 x 8, 42 offset. 235 40 18 Vredestein Wintrac Pro. Here's a trial fit pic. Clears no problem. Suspension isn't settled, I just lowered it to the ground after spinning wheel to check spoke clearances. I'll probably put them on when the lows are forecast...
