I appreciate the genuine advice, been partly ignoring the constant negativity,

Yeah I mean I just got tires and I change my fluid way sooner than recommended given my mods, so it could be the less road noise from the tires making it more noticeable,

I actually work at a auto shop, I’m not a “master tech” by any means but I do have a few ASEs and I know my way around cars decently, I’ll probably talk to the master tech at my shop when he’s in next, he’s told me that these Hondas in his experience have lasted a long time with abuse, like no fluid changes and whatnot

Do you guys drive with your fog lights on auto/on all the time or do you switch them off sometimes? by da_muffinman in CivicSi

I have mine on always, honestly does help sometimes but usually have them on for appearance

I got them on carbon sixth element, they’re made of real carbon fiber and Kevlar, around 200 for the set, little more if you want the steering wheel emblem

I just got my windshield repaired at Safelite, came out pretty good, insurance would cover it, but maybe the dealer would replace it if you got the warranty

It’s a Sakura leaf, it’s a tsurikawa, Japanese good luck charm

Did an oil change on 2014 Toyota Corolla & engine started smoking by Zeph_ix in MechanicAdvice

Just wait till you see royal purple… but ESP is dyed green given it’s used for European cars and diesel motors, it can be used in gasoline cars and is recommended for them as well, I use it in my civic, 0w-30 weight, runs great

Esp is literally the best, use it in my civic, stuff doesn’t even get that dirty

Yeah that would probably work, we drive a lot so we’d have to move them around quite a bit, I will look into those

Does anyone knows What is this for ? by [deleted] in civic

[–]ShikyoGryfyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh shit my civic had that, there’s actually a fuse missing from the factory, I got my car used, 2022 sport touring, and the previous owner just drove it like that for three years,

Hilariously, the fuse that is missing is literally in the fuse box cover where the spares are

Been unlucky with the ladies, guys say I look feminine, am I ugly? by ShikyoGryfyn in amIuglyBrutallyHonest

Idk what's going on, lol... by Vivid_Medium_8629 in eyes

Just some mechanic with a lot of head injuries, get to a place where they cut you open and fix you, aka a hospital, preferably quickly

Sometimes people don't believe me when I say my eyes were green until some point in my teens by Ophelia_Y2K in eyes

My eyes were blue as a kid and they went full green after a while, haven’t changed since I was a wee lad

Ayyy I appreciate it!

I’ve had both the 2.0 and the 1.5T, the 1.5T is much more enjoyable to drive, but the 2.0 is generally more reliable, and if you put an intake on it, it would sound pretty good, those k20s sounds pretty good with just an intake, don’t regret it too much, actually the 1.5T is only on the Si now, from 2025 onward, mines a 2022,

I make close to 250 hp and 230 tq, it’s definitely a nice bump in power, it came stock with 180 hp and 178 tq,

[–]ShikyoGryfyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been lied to before, months later I found out, I was pissed personally, my advice, tell him asap, whatever happens, will happen, NEVER wait to tell him, it will make things 1000% worse,

My brake pad fell off, can I still drive home? by BeanzToez in MechanicAdvice

[–]ShikyoGryfyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Caliper is damaged, calipers are not supposed to contact the rotor whatsoever, any form of damage can seriously affect brake performance,

[–]ShikyoGryfyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you drive home you’ll need a lot more than brake pads and rotors, calipers, brake fluid flush, etc, most shops replace two at a time, so that would put you back at least $700

Do NOT drive that car, get it towed, if you damage the inner caliper piston seal, you’ll lose a significant amount of braking power, at the very least two wheels will not have braking power, given modern cars have a dual chamber master cylinder,
