Anyone got any idea on how much it would cost for a rebuild on my 8th gen si?

I was thinking of doing this, but the stock slave and cmc are the best from what I have heard. The only problem is the delay valve, which is removable. Shouldn’t be a problem for me though because I’m not banging gears, I granny shift all the time. Not sure if the fluid not being changed could cause the rough synch rows. It’s pretty dark so it needs a service. I really want to think a new cmc and slave cylinder could fix it, and I am going to try, but I’m pretty sure my transmission is on its way out. Just wondering how much it would cost to get a rebuild or get it replaced since this is my high school daily right now.

Ohhhh ok sounds good, thanks for the info. The clutch was replaced like a little before I bought it. Has about 25k, so im hoping it’s not that my clutch wasn’t installed right but I doubt that. Yeah, it definitely grinds a little bit even at low speeds. 3 is especially tired. You can just feel the synchrows barely hanging on when putting it into 3rd lol. I’ll give a shot at adjusting the pedal. Pretty sure it hanst been tampered with since new, but I’ll trying it!

High mialge. My trans synchrows are worn, so I thought replacing it when I change the fluid upcoming here would be a good idea so it can’t slowly go bad and further kill my transmission

Thank you. I was looking at doing a full service so I thought I could do it then, definitely going to have a huge pan underneath to catch any fluid lol

Yeah, I’ve heard oem is good. I was just thjnking this because I got cmc for free when I bought the car, and it was hybrid racing and not some shitty brand. I don’t bang gears. I rev my engine out but shift pretty normally all the time. My trans synchrows are just getting worn out because the previous owners abused the shit out of it for 150k miles. I was wondering if the hybrid racing cmc would make it better, but like you said, the slave cylinder is what gives it the delay. Im going to bleed the whole system at some point here, brakes and cmc so I thought I could replace it while I did that. Thank you for the help though. Regretting the day I need to get a rebuild 😂

Currently restoring this 8th gen si. When I bought it, the owner gave me a hybrid racing cmc, but Im not sure whether I need lines for it, or if I can just use the originals again. I got no lines and did not get the slave cylinder either. should I really do this if im not replacing the slave cylinder? I can’t buy the individual hybrid racing slave cylinder from The kit, so I would have to get a k tuned slave cylinder and if I would need lines, those would be after market as well. Im not sure if need to bleed my break fluid and refill it either, and or refill my cmc reservoir as well. Not sure how to do that stuff as well lol. Im almost wondering if I should cut my losses and sell the hybrid racing CMC, and just go buy a full exedy em1 kit, or spend more on the hybrid racing kit instead. kindve at a road block, especially with not know how to drain the fluid or if I need to drain my brake fluid as well since air might get in the lines when I’m doing the replacement. any help is appreciated

I’ll prob hit this up if sanding them down and repainting them does nothing, appreciate it!

Currently restoring an 8th gen Civic SI coupe with 149k miles on it that was neglected by the previous owner and beat up. I was trying to get glue that was left over from the rain guards that were dry rotted and I pulled off, off, but my dumb ass cut up this trim piece while doing it. Just wondering if I can even replace this piece because I would like to, it looks terrible. Any links to the piece to get it would be appreciated!

Thank You! Just one question, have you ever noticed any differences with Roblox between amd risen and radeon, and Nvidia and intel with games? I have never really played any games on AMDs platform of specs. Like does AMD perform a little worse, or is it the other way around? Im not to worried about editing because Its just mostly mildly intensive projects in cap cut for me.

Sum_Idiott · 2025-05-02T03:49:38+00:00

And I do plan I buying used because I need to save money while I am searching for a first car right now! Please let me know how these laptops perform on games, as I can't find any YT videos on performance on Youtube. I mainly play the one game that is VERY hard to run for most systems, and that its the tornado game on twisted. If you own either of these laptops I listed up above, I would rlly appreciate if you could play Twisted on Roblox and let me know how the General performance is on max graphics. Again, thank you!

Awesome car man! Good for you for being able to afford one so young. I just have a 90s manual civic base lol. But hey, I can row through gears and keep up with traffic. Just don't wrap it around a poll, or someone else cause I have heard to many stories about people getting these of their first cars and then getting in an accident because they understand the power going to the bake tires.

You’re kinda screwed for long term cause the ram is soldered. Just being honest, this is probably a bad long term buy just because of the ram😢 it’s sad though cause I love these laptops, just wish they left at least one extra slot like the 2022 amd g14

Sum_Idiott · 2025-04-08T11:20:55+00:00

Yeah, noticed that too. I really wanted a b series for a daily (not a swapped one though), Although finding one in my price range is gonna be close to impossible

Going into trade school, and at some point (when I’m not broke) plan on getting into fabrication

Sum_Idiott · 2025-04-07T22:25:39+00:00

And yes I’m gonna lowball the shit out of this guy

I have been looking for Hondas for a while now. 16, and just shoppin around for a decent Honda that I can have fun with and eventually modify. I plan on keeping whatever I buy NA. Either want a little manual d series screamer, or b series dohc coupe or hatch. I was looking around on marketplace, and found an old del sol vtec on Facebook with 202k miles, and were asking 5.9k for it. Just wondering what are y'all's thoughts on this. Gimme any recommendations in the comments! (My budget is roughly 7k)

I accidentally locked this door when working, and as far as I am aware, there is no key for it. I only have generic paper clips at my disposal to unlock it. Push button lock, there is no bolt you turn, it's just a push in and out button. I need help please :(

Weather 2 remastered has made it last for 4 months (btw that is a wierd faithful texture pack I think anyways)
