This is where I am. I like a short tight throw. I did the 4 Acuity āStage 2ā in console mods today and am pretty pleased with the results. Some of the install was kind of a pain but now that itās all back together it will bring satisfaction with every drive.
Based on the input here, I donāt...
Iām finishing up the Acuity shifter upgrade install and upon reassembly, I have a plug that I canāt find a port for.
Can anyone tell me where this goes?
Thanks in advance.
Did you have a short window where you had done the shifter cable bushings but not yet the rest of the Stage 2 Acuity kit? Any thoughts on how much difference each part made (cable bushings versus all the rest)? I have all of the Stage 2 elements on order aside from the cable bushings for a...
For those recommending ceramic coat, ppf, clay bar, would any of those actually make the car less dirty, or just easier to clean when I wash it?
When I wash it, I typically finish with a spray on, hose off SiO2 spray of some sort. I'm doing this regularly enough that I always have really good...
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a touchless wash that's any good. They more clean the top half of the car, which isn't too dirty, and don't clean the bottom half. Then the water runs down the car and leaves these dirt zebra stripes on it. As much as I hate to, I may just have to...
I have mud flaps, and feel like maybe they help a little, but the car is still constantly filthy.
I donāt typically use automated washes, and handwash in my driveway where possible. In cold weather, I may high pressure spray it down in a wash bay to get the worst of the salt and crud off, then...
This is my first white car. The color was not my first choice, but at the time, the car was pretty rare, particularly at msrp, so I was willing to be flexible. I am really regretting getting a white car. It is constantly filthy, I think way moreso than other white cars I see. I donāt know if...
I drove an aspec and noticed that the seat material is not as nice. The Type S has ultrasuede, which I think is like alcantera. The aspec gets microsuede, which to me seems like just felt or something. I didnāt care for that. To be honest Iād probably take the lesser suede to get a sunroof...
For those of you with aftermarket knobs, what are you doing to keep the boot up and flush with the bottom of the knob? My boot collar sags down sometimes and looks sad.
Thanks for any insight here.
This seems like a ton of work. May I alternately suggest getting the base Integra and swapping all of the Type S bits over to it, minus the spoilered hatch?
I donāt say this to be pedantic, but I think itās relevant in the context of the original question. I donāt think thereās any actual leather in this car aside from the steering wheel. If you look at the Acura specs, they use the term leatherette, which is some form of vinyl or synthetic...
And just think, with all the time you saved not starting a floormat thread, you canā¦shit on someone elseās thread taking a couple minutes to try to make an informed decision before spending several hundred dollars!
Iāve had tuxmats for around 16 months now.
I initially had the same issue with some scrunching sound from clutch pedal contacting the mat but that has subsided.
I had, and returned, the tuxmat trunk liner. It is a slick surface and stuff in the hatch slides around on it while i drive...
Same. Never had a white car before and I regret the color choice, but they weren't widely available at the time so I compromised. I actually think there is something aerodynamically unique about this car that sucks road spray up onto it. I don't think other white cars I see look nearly as...
My ālowestā was filling up 11.36 gallons. I go pretty low regularly; Iām annoyed at how small this tank is. My tsx would go 500+ on a tank; this car causes anxiety just trying to hit half of that. I think when indicated range hits 0 you have about 1.25-1.5 gallons left.
I too am annoyed that there is not a low/no cost option for an all season tire like Conti dws06+, as I definitely would have opted for it. I live in the Midwest, don't track my car and those would have been fine. But in buying the car I committed to the expense and hassle of getting dedicated...
