  1. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Correct. Corporations can do things behind the curtain (like spread the costs to other products, reduce operating costs, hit up their parts vendors, find new parts vendors, forfeit bonuses, etc. etc.) to ease the price increase that consumers see. Why would they do that? Wellā€¦because they know...

    We need to see photos of it outdoors!šŸ™
  3. Advice on driving the Type R

    Watch vids on proper hand positioning on the shifter and how it changes with each gear. It makes a difference and can help ensure you donā€™t miss shift. This may seem trivial, but I think many people learned how to shift from watching the F&F moviesšŸ¤£ā€¦which I believe may be a source of people...
  4. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    For real man. Itā€™s not my thing, but it appears that some simply enjoy a swirling toilet.
  5. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Thatā€™s EXACTLY the biggest problem and why itā€™s hard to have civil discussions. Iā€™m not stupid, but I also didnā€™t get a degree in business (or similar) nor do I have a job in suchā€¦so stuff like this isnā€™t ā€œbasicā€ to me and surely others too. The problem gets compounded because people (who are...
  6. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Iā€™m not trying to be a smart ass, but can you point out sources? Facts from, ideally, unbiased sources tend to help people have a reasonable discussion and not veer into the damn ditch! šŸ˜‚ Even if itā€™s just the numbers, itā€™s helpful. All of us have become huge skeptics of everything we read, but...
  7. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Just to slow down and get back in topic : What I (and I think most here) would be interested in understanding is what yā€™all think the tariffs will do short and long term. Like it or not, the reality is Trump is the president. Alright. Letā€™s stop the finger pointing BS and the anti-dem / anti-rep...
  8. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    My goofy video post was more of a remark about this thread and literally ANY political thread on the internet. Theyā€™re rarely constructive and are a massive waste of time. No one here is going to convince anyone of anything, so Iā€™m just trying to lighten the mood. I donā€™t care if youā€™re liberal...
  9. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    @Bigfx Who knew Kung Pow would be so applicable so many years later? 2025 is so crazy I have to laugh to maintain my sanity. Hereā€™s how I feel about this thread, considering who ā€œthe chosen oneā€ is and his ā€œsignificance.ā€ šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£
  10. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Love the obscure Kung Pow reference. Itā€™s perfect A friend and I saw that movie in the theater. We were like 2 of the 4 total people there.šŸ¤£
  11. FL5 Emission and Rev-matching System Problem (P0011)

    @lilDumpsterRat Sounds like your dealership is making shit up. Tell them to SHOW you where Honda states that ANY of their vehicles (particularly performance models made for tracking) arenā€™t warranted beyond 65 mph. Note that Honda has been dealing with fuel pump issues for a few years now...
  12. Question about indirect TPMS & buying TPMS sensors

    As stated by someone else, Iā€™m pretty positive most of these omissions were strategic for the North American market. They help keep the price lower, while we also have the choice of the ITS (which is obviously more expensive and loaded with creature comforts). Note that CTRs in other regions...
  13. Question about indirect TPMS & buying TPMS sensors

    @zumbooruk I totally get it. Direct TPMS is definitely a nice feature and super convenient. On the Type R, the advantage of NOT having direct TPMS is that it makes changing wheels/tire sets easier (for those who track their cars). Less to fiddle around with. Thatā€™s the only reason I can think...
  14. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Thatā€™s the thing, exactly as the article points out : This really hurts the buying power of the low and middle class. Upper class may feel it somewhat, but it wonā€™t stop them from buying things they want. In fact, I was listening to NPR yesterday and they said this exact thing (not verbatim) ...
  15. 25% Tariff being put on all imported cars like the CTR

    Iā€™m no market analyst, but what will probably happen is new cars (sitting on the lots now) will be marked up to match the tariff-affected cars coming onto the lots soon. THEN, because new cars will be so expensive, itā€™s going to inflate the demand and prices of used cars for awhile. So we may...
  16. Pursuit of Fitment Perfection

    Great content again, dude. I appreciate your attention to detail and ability to meticulously explain those details. Seriously great work!
  17. Question about indirect TPMS & buying TPMS sensors

    Even if those sensors were accurate and could do everything you want, thereā€™s no free lunch. Something I really donā€™t like about these types of sensors is that they depress the valve stem to get the pressure reading. This means that keeping your tires inflated is now reliant on the valve stem...
  18. 2025 oil capacity vs 2023-2024...Error on Amsoil website and Google?

    YES! Google AI is helpful in a lot of ways, but can be VERY wrong with some of the most important, specific, details.šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø Definitely take it with a BIG grain of salt and do your own research diligence with things that matter (like oil capacity or when to take the blue pill vs red pill).šŸ˜…
  19. FL5 Emission and Rev-matching System Problem (P0011)

    Yeah. The CEL message is generic. The code is what determines whatā€™s actually wrong and if parts are needed.
  20. 2025 oil capacity vs 2023-2024...Error on Amsoil website and Google?

    As already said, always consult the automakerā€™s specifications. Never trust info from other sources, Google or otherwise.
