  1. Should I use grease or anti-seize when swapping winter tires on Type S?

    I use a thin film of anti-seize on the hub. I’ve had a wheel or two get stuck on the hub pretty good. I always carry a rubber mallet in my car just in case. A few good wacks is usually all it takes to get the wheel off.
  2. Storage for Acura integra

    Been storing my Miata for 16 years and, until recently, a boat also. Put a container of Damp Rid in the trunk and inside the car.
  3. Metal dead pedal and insert for centre armrest.

    I also have both those mods. I got the dead pedal from Etsy, don’t have the link. The center console tray was from Amazon. In the center console tray I put my wallet and keys, some quarters for Aldi shopping carts and an extra key for my bike rack.
  4. Filling Up

    In upstate NY, depending on the gas station, I can get either 91, 93 or 94 octane gas, all over $5 a gallon. Just went to Maine last weekend and got a couple of tanks over 40mpg, much better than my old Subaru, I’d be lucky to get over 33 mpg on the highway. The ironic thing is that out of all...
  5. Winter Storage

    I have my Miata out now, so the Integra is going to feel a little neglected for the summer. I’ll still take it on long trips since you can’t fit much in a Miata.
  6. TPMS reads low, normal?

    I wouldn’t trust the gauge on the inflator. Buy an accurate tire pressure gauge. I have a Jaco which claims to be 0.5% of reading accurate. The TPMS sensors in my car track with the gauge.
  7. Winter Wheels & Tires

    I went down to 17” wheels to get more sidewall for the winter tires. I got some Borbet wheels and they seemed to have handled the salt well. Got 215/50/17 Blizzak WS90s to go with them...
  8. 215/50R-17 Bridgestone Blizzak Snow Tires & Rims

    I have the same size Blizzaks on some Borbet rims, the tires work great in heavy snow! My Miata stays in the garage for the winter, the integra is my winter beater. Got 2 feet of snow today, and still snowing. I’ll see how the tires work tomorrow.
  9. Faulty tpms sensor?

    I probably didn’t explain very well. The link from discount tire does a better job. https://www.discounttire.com/learn/tpms-info/tpms-facts
  10. Faulty tpms sensor?

    Bullet number 2 is wrong. That’s how “Indirect” TPMS works. No actual sensor in the wheel, revolutions per time are counted, if the wheel has more revolutions than predicted based on the last “reset” of the system then the TPMS light will come on. An old Matrix that my wife had used this type...
  11. TPMS not syncing

    That’s odd that it took so long. Just put my snow tires w/Tirerack sensors on and the sensors synced up with the car within a mile.
  12. Nervous about going to 17”

    If bolt pattern and offset are the same then bolt one on and make sure that the brake clearance is ok. If perchance the center bore was smaller then you wouldn’t be able to get the wheel on. If the center bore was larger the lug nuts will center the wheel when tightened. I’d like to think...
  13. Guardian Designs Corsa Zero steering wheel installed!

    Awesome, I have a Guardian Designs wheel on my Miata and absolutely love it. Mine’s pretty simple, seamless w/a noon marker in Napa leather. They make a great product and are very popular in the Miata world. https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=594029&page=121&highlight=guardian+designs
  14. Faulty tpms sensor?

    Do a search, lots of threads regarding a compact spare. 06421-3S5-A10 - TEMPORARY KIT This kit contains a new piece of foam, tools, a rim and a valve. You have to buy the tire separately, I got a Continental spare at Discount tire.
  15. Jogon Carbon Parts added

    The piano black trim around the shifter was already getting scratched up after a year so I decided to give the Jogon carbon parts a try. No issues with marking of “green edges”. So it looks like they got their quality control straightened out. The fit around the controls is spot on, the...
  16. Paint mismatch on rear bumper?

    Unfortunately, as other posters mentioned, it’s pretty common. Mazda has a color called Soul Red, I’ve seen a bunch of Miata’s at club meets where the match isn’t even close. Not a color I’d pick for that reason. I did want the blue when I was buying the car but the nearest one with a black...
  17. 2025 A-Spec Spare Tire Kit

    https://acura.bernardiparts.com/Products/TEMPORARY-KIT__06421-3S5-A10.aspx Geez, it’s $157.99, I paid $170, they lowered the price since I got it. The shipping was free. This includes everything but the spare tire. I got the spare at Discount tire, can’t remember the size off the top of my...
  18. 2025 A-Spec Spare Tire Kit

    Why they didn’t include the spare is beyond me. I know it’s convenient to get the whole kit from the dealer but you could have saved some money by buying the kit online (the actual spare tire kit doesn’t include the tire) and purchasing the the Continental spare, which is significantly less...
  19. TPMS for second set of wheels

    I have sensors from tirerack. Yup, just put them on the car and drive, within a mile the pressures show up on the screen.
  20. Ghost Rider in cruise control

    I had a post about this last winter when the road was white with salt and in the bright sun. I didn’t see a motor cycle, but a phantom tractor trailer dance across the screen. https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/i-brake-for-ghosts.53570/#post-872857
