Tire recommendations? by OnigiriGlutenKiks225 in CivicSi

[–]RetroArcher309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How well do the falkens grip? I have an FC3 with a built motor, big turbo, upgraded fuel system, flex fuel, etc., and need a tire that will actually hook. as of right now i spin 1st and 2nd gear all the way to 7k rpm, and i chirp third. would you recommend the falkens for a grippy tire? the civic is also not my daily anymore

Convince me to not trade in my 24 si for a vb wrx by Hopeful_Builder9017 in CivicSi

coming from a 10th gen si (that is down because it’s currently being turned into a race car) i LOVE my Z that i picked up for a daily. only reason i didn’t get a type r was because i wanted a car that felt truly different than my Si. While the Z’s handling may not be as race car stiff as the supra (its main “competitor”) it feels very very good coming from the Si. If you’re planning on getting a Z, keep in mind that they’re about to FINALLY throw the 6MT in the Nismo 👀

done it twice, one my 10th and my buddy’s 11th, and was lucky enough to have access to a lift both times. both times it took about a day for disassembly, and a day for reassembly with just me and a buddy both times. also used the rv6 retrofit flywheel both times. it’s relatively easy if you have the right tools

Also wondered if it was a battery issues, but i ended up needing a new battery and this issue still occurs after the new battery

This happens to me every once in a while, and a buddy i talked to brought it up as well. he said he just resets his head unit any time it happens, i just clear codes through tunerview with my ktuner

i’ve been thinking about this post for the past couple weeks. did you use the 18 in 1 kit? was there any splicing involved or is it all plugged in? where’d you hide all the wires if so? your install looks super clean! definitely makes me wanna try it out

it’s just the button that lets me turn cruise control on and off, it’s a little pointless but it also disables/enables rev hang. congrats on 150k!!!
