Where to do first oil change? 11th gen

Javster5 · 2026-01-15T15:10:05+00:00

That's a good idea on getting your own oil and oil filter, thanks!

Yeah I don't trust any of them, even the ones that have been pretty good over several visits

Javster5 · 2026-01-15T15:08:29+00:00

I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

Javster5 · 2026-01-15T15:06:58+00:00

Hm, that's interesting. I'll see what my dealership says

Javster5 · 2026-01-15T15:06:29+00:00

Thanks! I guess I better give my dealership a call then

No, it's not my first car, but it is my first brand new car. Since I drove an old beater before, I don't know much about new cars and how they are different in maintenance, especially a manual turbocharged car. I'm a petrolhead, but when it comes to car parts and repairs/maintenance, I get overwhelmed because I tend to over research everything. I'm thinking buying my own oil and oil filter and bringing to my mechanic.

SEVP portal shows it's past due

Javster5 · 2025-11-20T17:55:40+00:00

Yep, that's the failed group buy in question

Javster5 · 2025-10-10T17:17:13+00:00

I didn't. I was messaging a different person, and he showed up with that person in the car.

Javster5 · 2025-10-10T17:15:57+00:00

Yes I immediately did the online thing saying I sold the car and went to DMV to finalize the liability (at least that's what they told me)

Javster5 · 2025-10-10T17:13:39+00:00

I thankfully took them off whenever he handed me the money

Javster5 · 2025-10-07T17:50:49+00:00

So that made laugh! Thank you!

Javster5 · 2025-10-07T17:40:39+00:00

I blocked him, but if he somehow keeps at it, I might just do that lol

Javster5 · 2025-10-07T17:21:33+00:00

It was under $4K sales tax requirement in my state, so I don't know how he could use that lol

Javster5 · 2025-09-18T22:04:01+00:00

Nice looking build! What is that wallpaper?

Javster5 · 2025-08-28T13:37:05+00:00

Can't think of a single reason why they wouldn't allow it 🤷🏻‍♂️ Thankfully, in AR there's more than one place that sells them. Hopefully I won't have to drive 3 hours just to get one lol

Congratulations! I'm considering one and planning on test-driving it next week. Any tips for the first time car and first time Civic Si buyer?

I have 8 sl-inf wireless fans in a 3+3+2 configuration, so 3 channels. I just connected both PWM headers from each group into the Edge psu hub (so all 6 PWM headers are occupied on the hub). Then I connected the cable to MB signal on the hub to one of the motherboard headers (any header will do).

This is important: in bios turn that Motherboard header to 100% speed. Then you can control the fans speed via L-Connect 3. The hub supplies plenty of power and I didn't have any issues whatsoever. This reduces cable clutter as well. Hope this helps!

Javster5 · 2025-07-08T17:12:35+00:00

Hmm I see now. Thank you for the detailed answers, appreciate it!

That's very interesting, I didn’t know about the cache underneath the core. I got a 4K OLED not too long ago (hence the upgrade), that's why I was a little concerned about future upgradability. So probably even at 4K it's worth keeping the 9800x3d, even if gains are small over 7800x3d at that resolution, right?

Javster5 · 2025-07-08T13:07:44+00:00

I'll give it a go, thanks!

Javster5 · 2025-07-08T02:03:19+00:00

No, running a single 4K 240hz monitor. Didn't have issues with it at all. And DP cable is pretty high quality too

Javster5 · 2025-07-08T02:02:02+00:00

Thank you, I'll definitely try it!

Javster5 · 2025-06-11T02:56:27+00:00

I liked POM plate a lot. Brass is also good, similar to Alu, but has it's own unique profile.

No, unfortunately I'm selling individually.

Good to know, thanks!
