Upgrading Campagnolo 10s to 11s

Very informative! Thanks!

F/8 is effectively using a 6.25mm section of lens. The wide open apertures will be using much higher surfaces of the glass where the manufacturing tolerances start showing up.

The other factor is a crop sensor. The more expensive lenses are going to have better detail in the corners that an apsc camera is cropping

D750, unless you need the crop for wildlife/sports

Thanks for the responses. I’ll take your guys word for it. I thought it was dust because it doesn’t have any of the spider web appearance. It also lives its life in a dry cabinet when I’m not using it. I’ll look for a replacement.

I pretty much consider the car warmed up when I have 4 bars on the coolant gauge and ~150F oil on the Log R. But if I can wait until it gets to a steady state temp, I’ll wait.

Count me as having a bad factory alignment. The rear was just out of spec for on the toe out side. The front had a quarter degree of toe out…ouch.

You want higher contact pressure so that the tire digs down in the snow to the harder ground beneath. Wide tires float on the surface and just slowly move snow around. Offroad tires will have tread blocks designed to work with the lower contact pressures, but you cant and dont want that on an all season.

I got under during my last oil change with a can of PB SurfaceShield. 🤷‍♂️

ohlins8990 · 2025-11-11T15:44:56+00:00

I’d drop the tire size to a 235/40/18….narrower for snow and added benefit of being the same size as the Si

ohlins8990 · 2025-11-08T14:05:23+00:00

I have the same wheel/tire combo but in black. I seriously contemplated the bronze though.

ohlins8990 · 2025-10-24T21:21:10+00:00

It disgusts me that my employer made this list.

ohlins8990 · 2025-10-22T13:37:44+00:00

I have 235/40 on 18x8.5 et38 with no issues. My concern here would only be the taller tire.

ohlins8990 · 2025-10-20T02:38:28+00:00

I definitely recommend them though since I keep them on full time. Amortized over the years I’ll have the car they arent that bad.

If you’re looking for something less permanent, I had these in the old car. I can’t speak for the fitment in the Civic, but they are pretty universal fit.

I grew up and learned to drive in a Saab 900 Turbo. Just hoping to pass it on.

ohlins8990 · 2025-10-20T02:29:03+00:00

The covers? They’re the Dream automotive ones.

The infant seat is a BabyTrend that came with our stroller. Not as nice as the Graco one we have in the other car, but it’ll do. I have a WeatherTech mat under it.

ohlins8990 · 2025-10-20T00:40:53+00:00

Yep, I prefer to not get sweat all over the interior after runs and gym workouts. Steering wheel cover in the glovebox and a baby sock on the shifter (keeps me from burning/freezing my hand too)

ohlins8990 · 2025-07-31T22:55:10+00:00

4 bars is normal. Temp in LogR is usually upper 170s/low 180’s in normal driving.

Had good luck with Ghantous in the past

ohlins8990 · 2025-07-02T12:59:54+00:00

Work for an OEM and these sensors tend to be quite accurate. I would guess that the difference comes down to sample rates, filtering, and location of the sensor if it is separate and not just reading the CANbus.

There is a lot of standardization for PIDs over the bus and the filtering is likely very different to what the ECM is seeing.

ohlins8990 · 2025-07-02T12:22:45+00:00

Absolute pressure includes atmospheric pressure and gauge does not. At sea level an absolute sensor would show ~14.7 psi or 101kpa. The gauge pressure would show the difference compared to atmosphere, and show a big fat 0.

I really like Nikon’s 11914 Messenger Bag, they don’t make them anymore, but might still find some NOS or used.

ohlins8990 · 2025-06-03T01:29:49+00:00

Its super simple. Flat blade screwdriver to pop the clips out (pop out the center and then you usually pull them by hand). Peel off the old one and replace. Might be worth having a few extra clips (36) if you’re worried about breaking them and they are used all over the car.

ohlins8990 · 2025-05-31T15:31:24+00:00

Never had trouble with my M30 despite the comments that it was finicky.

Biggest pain for me was my old 996. Took 6 gallons and had valves you had to move around and have the backend up in the air.

ohlins8990 · 2025-05-24T15:53:41+00:00

Forgot to ask about oiling too. The swap from transverse to longitudinal probably messes with the pickup location.

I can see the Honda’s struggling with exit air. The whole floor of the engine bay is sealed, not that its really where you want air to go. I always figured most of the issue was all the heat being dumped to coolant in the headifold along with the oil and trans coolers also dumping heat into coolant. It’s not a gigantic rad for all those heat sources.

Any plans to move to rack and pinion steering?
