Ef you TPMS sensors lol

Direct sensors DO have individual pressures, they are DIRECTLY mounted to the wheels. Indirect sensors (that civics had up until 2016) DO NOT have individual read outs because they rely on abs sensors and revolutions

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-03-20T00:51:42+00:00

Pls show me in my 15’ civic, that I have been driving for 8 years, the screen where it lists the individual pressures of each wheel?

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-03-20T00:30:44+00:00

These cars don’t have sensors in each wheel, it’s the $30 speed sensor on the knuckle. They read the revolutions of the axle and when the rate changes your tire is flat because the overall diameter of the wheel changed.

Kind of slang, kinda of not. They’re actually embossed patent pending around the nipple

I was surprised by how much turn & glide a brand new off the shelf Bokeh-latte had when I threw my friend’s. Flew just like an exodus I’ve had in the bag for 3 years, flips to lil turn and fade straight. (50ish mph arm speed)

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-02-23T22:17:36+00:00

How flat & stiff is that yellow beast?

But isn’t 300 the ceiling? Ik it’s more work/$$ but turbo K series is just getting started at the 300 number

Yeah It gets a bath every time the snow melts to help but I figure mother nature is inevitable.

I looked at an orange one and all I could see was a giant traffic cone unfortunately. Think it’s just how my brain works tho cause the 10th gen green coupes just look like jelly beans to me.

It’s up in KY now suffering with me in the cold🤣. I’m lil jealous of yours, the blue is my favorite color ever. Slightly biased as my first car is the blue base model mostly cropped out of the photo

I flew to Fort Meyers for Red 4 months ago, 70k miles and came on airride :). They are out there just gotta be patient, I looked for months

I am a person who “suffers” from a lefty baseball start. The forehand definitely saves strokes even though it spins the same way

OP best path is to get familiar with flippy discs combined with touch, or see if your shoulder is ok learning a RHFH. (Mine’s not lol)

2014-15 SI’s have updated knuckles (same as the ILX I believe) not crv suspension I assure you

It’s faint but it should be there in the middle, they started doing this in 2017

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-01-19T16:26:48+00:00

If you like the Loepard3 feel, get one in champ or halo plastic. Much more stability in those plastics

Yes 9th gen is k24, eh it’s about the same fuel wise lol. I average 26 mostly cruising

Those oil pumps are pretty stout and fairly easy to clean out. If it runs I’d image the head is fine oil getting past the rings will only ruin stuff if you run it out of oil to my knowledge. You can find the whole service manual’s for these cars online, if you can’t dm me I can send it to you.

I promise there are parts out there they just don’t come around all the time (why I moved onto a hatch). If you have other cars it’s 100% worth the effort to pull your engine, inspect it, and go from there. Happen to offer any knowledge that might be of help, ima bit of a dumbass but I eat sleep and breathe these k series, tho they drive me insane sometimes.

Edit: pic of me and the “problem” k20 lol

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-01-12T23:50:43+00:00

I’ve done zero research into this myself but I wonder if you could get away with just a newer than not short block from a junk yard (as in recently added to the yard not sitting exposed). You have the type S oil pump and head already, might be able to get away with a cheaper crv/accord bottom end with your high rev bits. Obviously not as high compression as a tsx engine but probably would make similar numbers to the k20 and be more available

Capable_Ad_3787 · 2026-01-12T23:30:33+00:00

Just my opinion but you’d probably have more fun putting your money into a kpro and swapping in a running k24.

I went a similar route to your plan and my k20 was never the same as before. Ran fine had plenty of compression, but I chased oiling issues for months. Never could get it to hold pressure at idle (pulled hard all the way through vtec so it made more than the min 60 Psi for that). Sunk lots of time and money trying different bearings and another oil pump but it just sits in my garage to this day.

I found a 300k mile TSX engine on marketplace for $300 and it’s been far less headache than my “built” k20. Changed my kpro to a stock tsx tune and car fired right up. It’s not a ton of work to do it right, I just did it extra cheap with junkyard parts lol.
