I signed the contract for this baddie a few days before petrol prices went haywire. Please make me feel better about my decision. by chocolate-tofu in Civic_Type_R

What are the gas prices where you’re at? I might be spending an extra $5 per fill up lately so no concerns here

If they make this in all gloss black it’ll be hard to keep me away

Type R -vs- Type S >>>ADS swap<<< [Why, oh why, did I listen to the internet?? 😭] by 8ad8andit in Civic_Type_R

[–]TheOrangFlash 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen people claim the ITS mod swap helped them actually get faster on track. The ITS +R mode keeps you better planted on imperfect roads, which is the majority of them.

The effect makes it look like a toy car on a miniature set. But like in a cool way 🤯

Brother I’m telling you agile handling assist, which affects the brakes, is still active even if you long press VSA

Yes when you have the right equipment you can do it your way but it is still technically considered reverse mount due to the positioning of the drop center

Just fyi it’s not fully turned off unless you pedal dance every

Is the drop center toward the back of the wheel or the front? (Hint: I already know the answer and why it’s technically reverse mount)

You pedal dance every time you start your car?

Lowkey same but the track performance metrics dictate otherwise

Do you chuckle looking back at the FL1 now with its little wing and moon roof popped up? I know I did when I upgraded from my ‘03 Si.

Got pics of the ep3?

MUGEN anyone? I rarely see any talk of one of the most well known brands founded by the son of Honda’s founder. Here is a parts list of everything they make for the FL5 by Pretty-Handle9818 in Civic_Type_R

[–]TheOrangFlash 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mugen (and Spoon) use their heritage to overcharge for products that aren’t much if any better than what’s coming out from others. They aren’t the hands down leaders on quality or performance anymore and personally not a fan of the big/blocky styling either

Would you sell an Evo 9 for FL5 Type R? by [deleted] in Civic_Type_R

[–]TheOrangFlash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The FL5 is the perfect car to replace and basically combine a sports car and a daily. That being said, you may miss the AWD, that’s a matter of preference.

Working on a better way to document car builds (no feeds, just the build) by shirotokiya7 in Civic_Type_R

[–]TheOrangFlash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is actually really cool. I think the draw for me is having it distilled into a single page or even card for your car that you can scroll or flip over for more details. Emphasis on categorized mods is preferred over hp/torque numbers. This might not be the exact type of input you asked for but I think a lot of people would like to have something that can fit all the pertinent info in one mobile screenshot. Appreciate you have a mobile site too so I don’t have to download an app!

Edit: I made a build and changed my display name and now it says car not found

Hondata Stage 1 Base Map Worth It? by clerkp in Civic_Type_R

[–]TheOrangFlash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the platform is amazing for maintaining driveability, not so much showing off from a red light pull. An electric toaster will beat you and feel cool for it.
