that is funny.

So this R18 thingy, did i read it right is vtech controlled by throttle postion? sounds fun.

Front and rear struts JD haha.

Im a tech at Honda. I cant count how many struts Ive done on 06-08 civics.
Every other model sucks pretty bad too.

I also own a 06 lx Manual Sedan. I love it.

Went 15.6 with a crush bent exhaust lol.

my wifes are fucked as we speak. I love how honda can bulid a strut in 88 that will do 25 years without leaking and now we get this.

How many of them were si's? I sometimes have a "pop" from the front struts when going over bumps at slow speeds... I should probably get that taken care of, lol. I think there is a TSB out for that...

edit: I see you said "every other model"... so.... *****.

Honda died with Soichiro, but it took until '01 for it to really set in. Since, all Honduh has become is another crap manufacturer subsisting off of Hype and Brand Loyalty, with their product quality walking the line between losing that hype and maximizing profits at the parts counter. See also: valve retainers that split on 40-60K automatic trans vehicles that can't be overreved, automatic slushboxes that are progressively shittier since '98+, PR-targeted TSBs/recalls that did nothing (K-series gearboxes), etc.


Same with the older cars, only the rpm range is shorter. With eCtune I can do a light load/high load VTEC rpm point based on whatever TPS % I specify, and it interpolates for all points inbetween.

BTW, I tuned an S300 two weeks ago... what a limited, stone age pile of ---- that was.

D16Y8-Z6

Si's also.

Not to be a dick to you, but anything that markets with OMG JDM RALLYE STYLE SHIFTER FROM THE DASH in a high 16 second performance-oriented platform... it was obviously a sack of defective ---- from reading the brochure, no test drive or road history needed on that one, and it doesn't need to be pointed out. I try to forget those ****** cars exist as they might affect the resale value of my retirement plan, CRXs.

Jorsher

I want to buy at least 1 more. The prices are getting retarded for a shitbox crx, especially with everyone flipping out about gas. I wish I could get my hands on an SiR before they're all raped

McBoost

I didn't want one until I took a test drive. They moved the shifter to the normal spot for the '06+ Si. I am aware of your hatred for the K-series, so I'll leave that alone

Good luck on the CRX 401-K.... it's probably beating the current financial market, lol.

boost it, it already has a turbo manifold. honda seems to love to give you everything you need to turbo a car. only thing missing is the turbo
