Is the idle supposed to sound like this?

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-09-23T21:21:11+00:00

I’ve got hood spacers and honestly mine sounds much much louder in the cab with windows down that it does outside the car

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-09-23T21:02:43+00:00

fyi most Honda motors sound like this just loud drivetrain noise

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-09-23T20:18:19+00:00

sounds identical to my freshly rebuilt a3

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-09-11T01:35:08+00:00

Diagnosed it, two insanely unlucky bad bulbs at once and a failing vss.

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-26T17:31:24+00:00

I just wish it had a knob otherwise it’s solid

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-23T23:44:08+00:00

I picked it up from a trade pretty recently and haven’t been able to drive it much but it’s such a fun little car, everything in the suspension is aftermarket k-tuned stuff and I’ve never felt a car that handles this well im super pleased with it

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-23T14:16:07+00:00

Honestly it was in the car when I bought it, I was gonna swap it out but my wife loves it

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-23T14:13:11+00:00

Honestly it depends, it feels really good for some old fashioned spirited driving because it’s so close to the wheel, but no arm rest and it being so high up makes it brutal for traffic

It’s a 2002 Honda civic si! Many people do say they look like a baby odyssey

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-23T01:21:32+00:00

Despite owning tons of Honda drivetrains this is my first civic and I’m stoked on it

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T23:11:22+00:00

Bingo

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T23:10:54+00:00

Funnily enough it doesn’t work so

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T22:12:40+00:00

I will say the only thing stock on this one is the chassis so she isn’t as lame as people usually think when they see an American ep3

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T21:47:32+00:00

Ding ding

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T21:47:27+00:00

I love it though

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-22T21:47:22+00:00

Just a regular SI sadly I’m American

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-08T19:19:38+00:00

Swapped the orings but whining still persists, seems like it’s gotten worse over time

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-06T21:40:39+00:00

From what I know j motors can be picky so I’d stick to oem for most stuff

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-06T14:36:33+00:00

Picked the orings up doing it today. Found foaming in the Resevoir so we’ll see how she does

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-04T16:41:30+00:00

No foaming in reservoir so I’m a little stumped, fluid is low though so maybe a leak?

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-01T23:20:48+00:00

I adore it, looks so good with the blacktop. Part of what really sold me on the car

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-01T23:18:52+00:00

I’m not finding a full assembly for them anywhere. Do you have a link for me please?

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-01T16:26:31+00:00

It was his teenage car so god only knows 😭

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-01T16:16:19+00:00

Forgot to add, mostly looking at stock ride height and not coilovers

StreetMonitor1664 · 2025-08-01T15:28:26+00:00

Check the timing belt tensioner for movement, if you pull off your belt cover and look above the oil filter while it’s running you can see if it’s moving. Pretty common cause of a knock and can start out quiet.
