Ah, looks like maybe all new Civics have aluminum hoods. Not seeing any references to the fenders though.

I think somewhere I saw that the Integra has an aluminum hood. Any other aluminum panels that people are aware of? My old WRX had an aluminum hood and it was crazy how light it was. Aluminum panels on the Integra would help offset the added features and any additional sound deadening, which I...

Also, a rear sway bar is typically a great upgrade as well. If I read the thread on Civixi.com correctly, 10th gen bars should work on the Integra, which would be great.

Shifter upgrades, which I feel safe to assume will just carry over directly from the 11th gen Civic. Throwing on my OG Acuity ESCO shift knob. Probably a rear motor mount. Likely a tune and hope the trans doesn't start slipping right away.

Yeah, they have the i30N in Europe, but we don't get it here, which is a shame.

The non-starter for me w/ the N is the lack of a split folding rear seat and that trunk brace, which I know CAN be removed. Plus, I'd rather just get back into a hatchback. So much more versatile. Otherwise I'm a big fan of the N and hope to get a chance to drive one someday.

Wait, so if you option the 19s, you don't get a tire with them? That'd be a hard pass.

I'll likely stick w/ the 18s. Our roads are decent enough around me for the most part. I've never felt like my Si needed 19s either. 18s look good, plus they are typically lighter. If I get 19s I'd probably want something aftermarket anyways, along w/ a high performance summer tire, which I...

In the US, some sort of TPMS system is required. It's the individual tire pressure monitoring that is not.

Which means that the Integra is going to be using traditional in-wheel TPMS sensors as opposed to the ABS rotational speed measurement that the Civic uses. Pros: more accurate and less false-positives that require recalibrating the TPMS system. Cons: need TPMS sensors for winter wheels or just...
