Re: FAKLAR
Enjoy replacing your front struts every 10K. But hey, at least they don't lock up AC compressors like the CRVs, right?

looking on 8thcivic.com i did read about some strut problems seems limited to si's though.and it seems like it is 02 through 06....and a nother guy had a problem with a leaking rear shock...but haven't found much more then that |
Re: FAKLAR
Its a problem on any newer honduh with mcstruts. They are cheap and shitty, probably designed by GM.
My RSX type S had 3 sets of struts put on it, 1 ecu, 1 cylinder head, bunch of cheap interior parts replaced, and some other ---- I cant remember at the moment, under warranty. I sold it at 40K miles. As far as im concerned, honda died in 1996. |
Re: FAKLAR
If you are worried about fuel economy why not pick up the hybrid? Premium isn't THAT much more, and knowing I'm paying more makes me keep light on the pedal.

Re: FAKLAR
For a 1.8 SOHC, the R18 makes decent power. I drove my buddy's LX and it's just a little squishier than my Si... both are fun to drive.
That single port exhaust manifold on the R18 is kinda crazy... begging for a turbo ;) |
