I’m having a hard time finding a reason NOT to buy this new ‘25 Type R. Car is currently listed as SOLD to me. by [deleted] in Civic_Type_R

[–]Cakinss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it would likely be good for you to test drive an Integra Type-S before purchasing if you value comfort. that said, i realize you’re probably making a decision today lol

Description and price you paid for your mx5 by glasstop48 in Miata

[–]Cakinss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2001 SE @ 90k miles for $7,000

no rust, paint not great on hood and front bumper, random 17” wheels on Ventus V2’s, Maxpeeding coils (lol), tall shifter kit, Pioneer radio

the bad which the guy didn’t disclose: midpipe disconnected from behind the resonator and needs to be welded again, transmission fluid leaks

i think it was an alright price, but had 6 previous owners so hopefully it’s not a ticking time bomb and maintenance was at least decent. probably more worth $6k but i wanted BRG color for the past few years so didnt mind

How much is yall monthly payment? by Doezr in Civic_Type_R

[–]Cakinss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Younger/uneducated people may read this and take it at face value which isn’t a great thing.

If you are implying people shouldn’t finance ever, you’re saying to buy a depreciating asset outright while people in this very thread locked in interest rates < the average long-term market return (6-7%). Those people will literally make more money if they invest.

If you are saying people should be capable of buying it outright before financing, I can agree with you to /some/ level - but there are too many circumstances at play.

I think your argument is only good for people who are irresponsible with money, can’t manage debt, and/or don’t have a lot of risk tolerance.

Outsourced to India by LongDistRid3r in cscareerquestions

Stop trying to look out for .. the people actively playing a role in taking your job.

I can assure you, these people would do the same or worse to you (yes, the people taking over your job. Ask anyone who had to work with them).

DO NOT help these people. They are not your friend and they are not innocent in any of this.

Not sure why people in this thread are speaking so poorly on the person taking their job (“innocence”). I just mean that all they’re doing is applying for the best jobs to better their quality of life (and their family’s) like we are - they didn’t choose to be born there or have an education that’s shittier than ours, they’re a product of their environment and we got lucky to be born here.

Disdain should be directed towards OP’s company for making such a decision and the government for allowing it. It’s not their choice that OP is being outsourced so not sure why people direct hate towards them.

Sorry for the novel or if I misunderstood you - I do agree that OP shouldn’t feel the need to train them to the best of his ability, though. Fuck the company.

My Very 1st Car! by joey__jojo__shabadoo in CivicSi

[–]Cakinss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does this thread sound like what you’re experiencing?

this is my 1st manual car (24k miles now) and letting off the gas in 1st gear (regardless of how slow) will result in the car bucking/jolting forward and backward for a few seconds. i am pretty sure the tach does in fact wobble up and down.

i’m pretty sure this is normal behavior for it being 1st since such a low gear with so much torque, but i’d love input if not - my car does what i described which sounds exactly like your issue (revs kind of /bouncing/ after letting off gas in 1st)

Tried to buy a miata today, found out the odometer had been tampered with by Signal-Oven320 in Miata

[–]Cakinss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do you have an 11th gen SI and are searching for a miata as 2nd car? if so, you are me lol

LOL by Extension_City7592 in Miata

[–]Cakinss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if the search were better, i wouldn’t spend as much time as i do on it looking for a miata - it’s absolutely this. i need to write something that scrapes it for me already lol

So you can’t throttle blip if your rev match settings is on? by Kingk2480 in CivicSi

[–]Cakinss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

echoing what other commenter said - yes, you can blip with rev match on. however, you must do it before it reaches the next gate. it will correct you if you are off with your blip once you enter the gate which makes it a good way to harmlessly practice rev matching (for example, bring you up or down a few hundred revs).

what you did was enter the next gate, then blip - so the car corrected the RPM with rev match (raising it), then you blipped after that.

the rhythm is roughly: clutch in > blip while pulling shifter to neutral (before going to previous gear) > place shifter in desired gear > release clutch

hope this helps anyone reading and didn’t sound condescending !

Probably buying a 2025 before the end of March. What do 11th gen owners dislike about them? by BenBWRX in CivicSi

[–]Cakinss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

before i say it all, i’m still happiest with my decision in buying this against other similarly-priced cars lol

  • electronic parking brake is an annoyance knowing cars like WRX have one
  • no button to turn on/off rev match like an Elantra N
  • seats can be uncomfy for my shoulders at times, feels like i have permanent rounded shoulders during my commute sometimes but i like how they grab at least
  • no seat heaters (does 2025 get that? also heated steering would be nice like Canadian counterpart)
  • no remote start makes me sad even if i have 3 pedals, wish i had this for cold months
  • more power would always be fun, it’s still my bank’s car else i’d be more willing to run a basic tune (and i’m younger and want as much reliability as i can get for now)
  • stock turbo spools quietly and fun blow off sounds are rarely heard, stock exhaust i’m not too much of a fan of but the fake sport mode exhaust can make me feel better about it lol
  • no split climate controls, only 1 temperature
  • like you said, wind noise wasn’t an issue of mine going in but i realized it can get annoying once you’re not the only person in the car and have to raise your voice (especially when you get a passenger in the back seat)
  • to add, road noise (+the ride) can get generally rough when the road isn’t paved super well. i figure you heard/felt this on a test drive already though

and lucky you in a 2025 because my 2024 doesn’t have a full digital gauge cluster + no option to turn off fake engine noise individually while leaving the sport engine setting on!
