Front sway bar is never easy, but well worth it on a mcstrut car. Are the bars solid or hollow? Weigh less or more than stock?

I tried on ali express too and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for! Lol The OG fast intentions tips are my favorite, honestly. They don't sell just the tip, but maybe they can point me at their source. Ark is a close second. I might have to settle for the Corsa ones. You're in aurora...

Correct!! Getting it right is fine tuning the brake release to get a smooth rounded peak. Trail braking is part of it, but also it's how smoothly you release the brake (also why brake pads like gloc and carbotech are famous for their "brake release characteristics"). Sweepers are the best...

I measured a while back but I don't recall exactly now. I believe it's 2.75" for the center and 2.25" for the outer. Yes. Love the sound. Very distinctly "borla" and the startup sequence sounds mean.

I just really like the look of resonated since it takes up visual space and I find the oe and borla tips way oversized, so "something" needs to take up the space. I'm also hoping resonated will temper the pops and bangs a bit. First gear with a loud exhaust it's a bit embarrassing leaving a...

I agree! If I had a decent welder in my area that wasn't afraid of valved exhausts and triple tips I would have gone down the experimentation route myself. At some point I'll chop the tips on the borla, but I need to find some quality ss, double wall, slash cut, resonated tips that are equal in...

Yesssss It applies to all cars, but you can't cover up poor braking technique with power in a fwd car. Once you feel it, you get it! The go pedal makes you go, but the slow pedal makes you fast 😁. It's all about brake release characteristics and technique to make that "shark fin" on a speed...

You should go find gti Jake (Baun Performance)! He'd probably love to sit down and fab with you. If he could help design a proper sound tuning for this car you'd get much better sound and top tier build quality for roughly the same amount as the typical boxed options on this platform.

I agree. I will also say that every driver that has only driven high hp rwd cars needs to drive a hot hatch on track. The truth is every car is a momentum car, but hot hatches aren't forgiving with brake and power if you get things wrong, so they teach good technique safely. Most track drivers...

Counterpoint... Mini before bmw bought them and of course the grandfather of all fwd hot hatches, the gti. The gli stands out at times as well. I had a gli park next to me at the grocery recently and I couldn't stop looking at it... It's not as aggressive looking as the its, but it looks more...

I agree with this. If you could actually change the pickup points on the subframe that would be ideal. Total honesty, I've ruined several cars by lowering them. While I "felt faster" and initially had a better pace, that was largely due to the improved steering feedback of metal top mounts, at...

It's not "semi active" in the sense it doesn't just change a valving property based on minor input changes like the mk7 gti. It's fully adaptive, but not fully active, meaning that it reacts to vehicle data, but not GPS and road scanning type data... I know stupid terminology stuff... Not trying...

That's a decent deal. You can get them a bit lower on it I suspect since for my type s they were willing to do 1750$. I personally don't believe Honda is reliable anymore. Two of their products have left my family stranded in the last 2 years, and they were always diligent on maintenance (with...

I use it to look at when I'm teaching people to drive manual in my car 😂. Sure I could look down or count, but usually with people so new (like my wife) there's a lot of panicking they're doing that I have to quell 🙃. Otherwise I agree, it's a useless thing.

Base color is black? Wrap looks well done. Gives me wrx orange vibes. Looks like it would pair well with white accents!

Interesting. I was unaware the aspec didn't have it. The type s has the gear indicator. I wouldn't hold my breath for honda/acura doing any software updates unless it's to fix mandated safety issues. They still haven't even fixed the bug where android auto/carplay randomly stop connecting and...

* for two years after purchase, it's 50% off I've never bought a fifth wheel. I've only rarely had catastrophic damage to a wheel so it hasn't been a major concern for me personally. Unlike some other companies, apex doesn't just quit making a rim and disappear into the night, so I'm not...

Send it over, I can fix that for you 😉. Those cars just have great feel at the limit. I had a guy with a yellow one in my HPDE class recently and out of all of my students in the downpour we had, he was moving the fastest. At one point down the main straight (it's really a quarter mile long...

The hakka r5 is a top tier ice and snow tire. Hakkapeliita is the full name of the brand. I put them up there with blizzaks for winter, and some of the hakka options blow the blizzak options out of the water. The r5 (and most ice and snow tires) like: 0 degrees camber below 6 degrees castor...

Screw the Integra, I see a real car in the background of those photos 😉😅
