What did you do to your FL5 today?

[xinvisionx]

Thanks for this. Ive been on the fence w/ risers and this is a great comparison.

You're welcome! And I just did my wife's FL5 this evening with the risers. She has the OEM carbon fiber wing.

Mine is exactly those settings. Kinda reminds me of my last fk8 with that OEM looking wing setup.

I also noticed whenever the car gets wet the paint finish on the risers just need a little trim coating to give that finish back

Thanks for the pictures. And we had the exact same thought on settings.

Also appreciate the heads up the coating when wet. I’ve found nothing talking about that!

Take a close look at your carbon fiber wing. I had a clear coat issue. Hard to see in the picture; however, there may be an issue with yours. See the white spots.

I had the same issue unfortunately. I haven't bothered to re clear it just yet.

I had to pull the car out into the drive way and back into the garage onto her side. The spots are water droplets since it was drizzling outside.

Wife wiped down the wing shortly after I took that photo.

Can you do me a favor? Show me a picture of how your wing looks and a pic of the adjustments area in case I want to be a poser and copy?

I second this. I want mine as low or lower than stock but further back.

I had it replaced under warranty. No need to take this on yourself, unless they deny the claim for some reason.

Had the ITS ADS module for over 2 months, not sure if I was going to install it, but I'm glad did! The ride in comfort is truly "comfort" now, it's noticeably less jarring. Roads that used to pop me off the seat don't do it anymore. +R mode is actually useable now without being excessively bouncy. So far, I like it.

I thought it was going to be a waste of money but it's probably one of the best things I've done to the car.

Some people will give you crap for wanting to soften the ride of a Type R, but it it really does just take some of the edge off and I doubt it even hurts the track performance at all. It’s subtle but helps a lot, especially if you drive on crappy roads like me.

I installed the PRL RMM and deleted the front resonator - Have to say the car sounds a lot more throaty in the cabin and doesnt annoy anyone outside.

The RMM isnt as noticeable as it was when I had one on my FK8. Like I can tell its there but it didnt make as big of a difference.

Thanks. It’s made to order. Type of leather, stitching, etc. It’s a little thicker than OEM. I thought the OEM was a bit thin. So far it feels good. The perforated leather offers good grip. I will have a longer drive and track day next month so I will see how it is.

How are you getting along with this change? Are you still happy with it?

I like it a lot. So much so that I’ve put off getting the JQ werks steering hub. The steering wheels that work with the hub are mostly Momo wheels. I have a Mugen Momo wheel for my S2000 and it’s thin. So I’m reluctant to change it.

Working on sound deadening. I’ve got one wheel well done and starting on the rear floor. I did finish installing a Blackvue DR970X-2ch Plus this afternoon. Too cold to drive and test though.
