Don't forget to give your Honder a head pat.

Switching from double wishbone to macdonalds was the beginning of the end for Honda

>>28748299
There's some good Mcdonalds stuff like the 10th gen Accord/10th-11th gen Civics that I like but I do miss when Hondas were kinda sporty on top of everything else, now they're just high speed fuel efficient cruise missiles, which I guess is okay.

be real with me, /o/, will this fix my shit or do I just need to start looking around? I'm using my mom's spare car right now but I'm getting really tired of this whole situation. I kind of have my eye on this 2012 Acura TSX with 140k miles but its 200 miles away from me so if I make the drive I'd have to buy it to justify it. Probably not the best car out there but its one I've had my eye on for a few years now so if I'm going to get a new one I'd rather get a car I actually want. But the same dealership has a 2008 Civic with 120k miles too so I could fall back on that too I guess if the Acura looks like a lemon. But I'd really like to get my car running properly right now considering, the way it is now, I doubt I would even be able to sell it off to help offset a new car.

What went wrong? LFA is dead for so long and I thought the NSX was also discontinued but it wasn't, no one gives a single fuck

I prefer the NSX as a brokie, but the thing clearly didn't have the clout of a Huracan (or the V10 noises) for 157 grand, and who knows what any dealer markups were going on in 2017 like the FK8 Civies, so you could've been paying 200 grand for an albeit based as fuck NSX that no one really cares about because it's not a Lamborghini.

>>28768345
NSX was their GT-R-like halo car Anon, it was 573HP turbo V6 and AWD just like a GT-R, I think the low sales had to do with the cost, we're talking $160,000 dollars for an exotic Jap car, when Nissan will sell you a 600HP NISNO GT-R for $18,000 more or $46,000 less for a regular GT-R with 565HP, which is hard to believe such a bargin existed looking back at it.

I have this 2013 civic and I cannot get the driving lights to align.
Both burned out a day apart, I replaced both. And not one shine lower than the other.
I tried resetting it twice. It's in correctly but not shinning right.
The high beams are correct so it's not the housing.
You can see the driver side is wayyy low and the passenger side is meeting up with the high beam.
What else could it be?
This is very annoying

I'm putting a Bilstein B12 kit on my beige-interior A6 CL7 because I got it at literally half usual price via my job. Am I retarded? My rationalisation is that I'm prolonging the lifespan of the car and that I already had an excuse to freshen up the suspension anyway due to MOT advisories.

>>28763223
I went ahead and did the valves. I was at 206400 miles. Started it up the other morning and she was rattling pretty loud, but did quite down some when it got warm. No other issues other than noise
Not a bad job, all videos show removing cowl for better access to intake valves but I didnt. All exhaust valves measured out at .013 with the specs being .009--- .013.
Intakes were all over but they were all loose. Its a little more quiet at cold start, doesn't run a bit better. Will see if my gas milage gets better. Currently showing 36 mpg, use to get 38 to 40.

The new acura stuff is going back to double wishbone, so there may be some hope for the future. The CTR, prelude, and ITS all have the triple ball joint double wishbone/mac strut hybrid, but I doubt that's going to come down to normal cars. The new prelude just makes me sad, maybe it's just the unreasonable price point, I don't really even care that it's slow

>>28768062
It's because you appreciate how they don't need to cope, there is such an insane amount of trash on the roads even from new.

>>28769543
It makes for a pretty decent used market, leased cars have more eyes on them making sure the maintenance is done, usually with prepaid plans

>>28776020
>The new acura stuff is going back to double wishbone
Yeah the TLX is a little hottie, but can you imagine a stripped down, cloth seat TLX with all the sweet driving dynamics and just sold as an Accord? That's basically what the 2003-2007 Accord was, it basically was a TL and why everybody loves it so.

>>28776024
I had an 09 accord, it was technically similar to your definition but is was bigger, still about 300lb lighter than the TL. Really nice car, stick shift k24 sedan

>>28776040
Based 09 Accord, that too was another one of these stripped down luxury cars, they were so damn good for being a decked out economy car, that the Acura brand was basically being cannibalized by the Accords even up until 2022 with the 2.0T Accord Touring, now things are returning to the 90s where the Accord is a nice car with pathetic horsepower, but if you want V6 power or a 2.0T, a double wishbone suspension, you're buying an Acura.

>>28776044
I picked up a 2.0t 10 speed earlier this year, for sure it's one of the all-time best configured cars that exist. I would have gone for the manual, but I wanted to try the automatic for the extra speed and 4 overdrives. 85mph is 2000rpm lol, still has good cruising power there too

>>28776059
>85mph is 2000rpm lol,
Good god that's a glorious cruiser, I know manualfags love it, but the 10AT is the correct transmission for the K20C engine for accelerating fast as possible and cruising at stupid low rpms, and here I was thinking my CM was the bee's knees for cruising at 2900 rpm to go 85, but now it's looking like a shitbox 90s Integra in comparison with the cruising revs.

Merry Christmas. Found this on market place. Top is a before image I found searching the VIN, bottom is an image they uploaded they did mention they rebuilt it by hand. 2016 Civic, has 135k miles, and they want 6800 for it. Is it worth it, should I low ball or should I continue my search? Thanks and Happy Honda Days.

>>28780468
Man, I know the paint on the front looks kinda shitty, but if that damn thing drives nicely, buy it a nice driving 10th Gen Civic for 6800 is such a nicer car than a 2004 Honda Accord for like 5 grand with more miles and age.

Need a double din kit for an integra, are my options these days still only metra?

>>28780833
Metra's based as shit, probably still cheaper than the CM Accords $249 kit because the car is so stupid.

>>28748217
Newfag to /o/ here, how does this board feel about the Honda Element? Heavily considering getting one.

>>28781058
If you're into an unusual "multi purpose vehicle" with a reliable K24 engine, you'll like it, but don't expect good fuel economy, it's shaped like a brick and has a 4 speed auto with a very short 4th gear that makes it rev quite high for going 65 mph, also be prepared to pay a good bit of money for it, these things their own fanclub, so good luck even finding an owner who is selling theirs.

>>28780817
Even with the prior accident?

>>28781123
Hell yeah i like it for 6800 if it runs and drives nice, 135,000 miles isn't a lot and its a 10 year old car barely.

>>28781539

>>28781539
They're not always deals, anon, a lot of the times they're not put together properly.

>>28780897
Metra is fine and does the job, I just wish they made the bezel pieces more sturdy. I don't know if it's the heat cycles while in storage or being crushed in transport but it's always a crapshoot you get a bezel that's slightly warped and doesn't sit flush in the dashboard.

>>28781937
That's what a pre purchase inspection is for, isn't it?

>>28783089
This, also you can't expect perfection and no accidents for $6800, otherwise a 10th gen Civic would go for $12,000-$13,000 that's what makes it a deal, I'd be losing my mind if I was told in 2016 that eventually you could get the "new Civic" for the equivalent of $5,000 in 2016 money 9 years later, and all it had was a front end accident repair and not an obscene amount of miles.

Honda really doesn't sell any windshield wiper linkage bushings? Fuck buying a whole new transmission for that shit

>>28783141
They should, I was able to get windshield wiper linkage rods for the old ass CM Accord when the wipers were slamming all over the place.

Looking at exhausts for a 94 b18 integra and I'm specifically looking for a deep throaty tone. I boiled it down to the Greddy Supreme SP and the Revel Medallion Street Plus. I've had good experiences with medallion on a b20 del sol but I used to have a 6th gen Celica with a greddy and it was so good its the unicorn I've been chasing with Hondas since. What should I do?

I got some (front) passenger side damage last year and since I'm trying to learn to wrench, I want to fix it.

It's a creaking noise that happens when I turn right, usually at slower speeds. No vibration or pulling. 2006 Accord.

ChatGPT says it's either a:
Lower ball joint (front right) - most likely?
Lower control arm bushings - very likely?

I know I have to look myself but I have never really dealt with wrenching under the car, this is my entry to that.

>>28784090
Jack up car
jackstand(s)

---

I would actually guess shocks, but it's hard to tell. With a car that age, all your bushings and shock boots are shot, so you can maybe take some pictures for us and we can tell you what's reasonably actionable.

I have an 8th gen Si, ALL the bushings are shot and so are the shocks.

>>28783389
Had a 1994 Integra, but some cheapo ebay exhaust, never regretted it once. Headers didn't fit though, so I kept stock exhaust headers and new all the way down. Had to cut all the bolts. Car fell apart before the exhaust did. I am: >>28783389

Did Honda ever fix this issues with the 1.5 Turbo?
I'm interested in a current gen SI, but not if the engine is going to shit itself in under 120,000 miles.

>>28784292
Don't know, but please don't pay markup on a fucking Si.

>>28784292
Supposedly it got fixed around 2019, but the reason why the L15B turbos get oil dilution is multiple short trips that don't allow the engine to warm up fully. It also helps to keep oil changes on a consistent schedule, typically 3-5k miles

>>28784520
This, also L15B motors are way more sensitive about not being maintained compared to an old K24, you can go a good bit over on oil changes on an old K24, drive it a quart low because it's leaking and the thing did not give a fuck, but the L15B will clog up the little screen on the oil feed line and ruin the turbo, and then even if you're a good guy who does his oil changes, you've got the head gasket thing that blows whenever it feels like it, which means you better be a big money player with over $5,000 in reserve to fix your car should this happen if you're gonna drive a 1.5T

>>28784549
So basically they haven't fixed it, and it's a bad idea to buy one.

>>28784549
Why did they do the ecoboost thing when Ford already proved it was a bad idea?

>>28784563
I wouldn't recommend it, maybe if the car is brand new and you're good about maintenance it could go a while, but the days of buying a cheap used K series Honda with average or less maintenance and having a reliable car for the next 10 years are gone, I try not to think how hard it's gonna be to buy a nice used L15B Honda when they're like 15 years old with miles on em.

>>28784565
Honda really fucked up with that similar block design, which is fucked up because the bottom end of an L15B is typical Honda, it's actually amazingly strong, issues aside, the L15B isn't known for getting rodknock like a subaru engine does where the bearings and everything just fall apart whenever it feels like it.

>>28784133
I hate how cheap exhausts sound, but I also hate how most expensive performance exhausts sound too. I think I'm going with the Greddy, youtube videos are terrible for comparing exhausts.

>>28784563
If you can afford it, just buy an FL5. The K20C1 is worth it.

>>28780468
>6800 for a 10th gen Civic
That's too damn cheap. I feel old.
Is the title good? Does it drive good? Because it's got an A+ paint job on it for a rebuild. If the suspension isnt bent that's a winner.

>>28784571
>because the bottom end of an L15B is typical Honda, it's actually amazingly strong, issues aside
The crank is basically flawless, rods are decent if you don't have a 1.5t hatch, pistons are usual cast ones although there are some differences. The biggest weak point in the L15B is the oil pump especially when tuned/running a higher redline

I feel like the civics shouldnt be launched like that but I can second that they are a lot of fun. I had a 10th gen sport hatch before I bought the FK8 R and it was a lot of fun to do a tune + full bolt on and just slam every gear.

The type R honestly moves to quick to be able to drive like that Si did so I kind of miss having the slower car for that reason

>>28787698
long breaker bar, position it so you have room to force it in the needed direction, apply a bit of preload to it to take up any slack/play in the socket, then keep shoving the far end of it. don't apply constant force because that's how you round or snap the bolt

Hondas are pretty based like that, unless you're dumping heat in front of my engine using the A/C and putting extreme load on it up a hill on a very hot day, it's practically never going to make the temp gauge budge just with beating on it, even in hot weather.

Yeah, it's been an expensive lesson. I wanted to keep the type R stock so when I found one that was stock I ended up learning its just has hidden abuse.
I've spent like 4g's trying to either return it to stock or replace stuff with aftermarket out of necessity. Because I couldn't own the 25 year old car I wanted I figured buy one that I'll want in 25 years. Now im thinking with how fucked up it was I'm not sure it'll make it even with me taking care of it.

Pretty sure it was a covered up wreck because all damage was passenger side. There was more damage but I've gotten it to unnoticeable levels.

11th gen civics are so cool they keep me hopeful for the future as far as where I can go for used good reliable car if I have to get one

I just bought a euro spec 3rd gen 2011 CRV, 2.0 i-VTEC. There's a few odd things about it. When I turn the wheel fully to the left and move forward, there's this groaning sound. The steering is really stiff/dead near the center and doesn't fully return to center after a turn. Any bump on the road will make the car steer left right or left until I readjust the steering at a result. This model has electric power steering, I did a reset of the steering torque sensor which helped a little but did not fully solve the issue.
Finally there's this very faint rattling sound between 20 and 35mph in 2nd and 3rd gear, could it be the clutch? It was owned by a guy in his 80s.

I honestly think I got scammed. I paid 12k EUR for it which is apparently a good deal for a 50k miles CRV in my local clown market but these issues make me feel unsure. I will probably sell it in a few months.

>>28800842
If it's only one side I'd guess it's NOT the power steering pump/elec steering.
Wheel bearing or CV joint would be my first guess.
Unless you're hard up for cash do both because if one's gone 95% the other is close behind.

Rejoice!

Gonna look into an aluminum radiator if I get around to fixing the old girl up. Mishimoto rad is ~500 cad, or I can get a Yonaka all aluminum rad with fans and aluminum shroud. They are both thicker units, so it should do the job and hopefully not leak. Mishimoto comes with a lifetime warranty, so I am more inclined towards that one, even though reviews say the fans are a real pita to put on since the rad is thicker than stock. Since I'm upgrading the rad, it would probably be a good idea to get new rubber hoses, and seal up the block coolant plug with some permatex. Ah might even do the head gasket while I'm at it. What else? Come summer time I'll get my other project running and then I can start working. Might as well just rebuild the entire motor while I'm at it, or stop spending money on it and part her out. Fuck I hate this, everything costs insane amounts of money and I don't think it's worth it because it's a base model. I hate cars

>>28808109
They stopped making the coupe so they reintroduced the coupe as the Prelude. Boom instently adds $15k to the price.

>>28808064
I wanted to like this thing since I had a 5th Gen Prelude years ago, but it's so pointless and overpriced. If my current daily driver ILX got totaled, I would just replace it with a Civic sport hybrid touring with the same powertrain as the new Prelude for $12k less. Neither the Prelude nor the Integra have much going for them other than styling. Honda will discontinue this Prelude in about five years, and then blame the consumer for not wanting a sports coupe.

>>28808980
I could see it if it were RWD. It'd be a bit weird having a hybrid RWD car, but I could see it having a legit niche if that were the case. But being FWD it's just... worse than a Civic hybrid. You're paying $15k more for two fewer doors. It doesn't even weigh less than the Civic hybrid, they're both right around 3200 lbs.

>>28808064
My cope is that they will release a model with the k20c1 in it and a manual. Since it already shares a suspension with the type R.
The last rwd car Honda made was the s2000 if we dont count the s660. So desu I would be extremely surprised if they did put out a rwd coupe again.

Would be based but it's not gonna happen. Honda intended the Prelude to represent a sneak peak of what's to come for the rest of their product catalog; hence the name. It's basically supposed to be the same philosophy as the NSX, but more affordable for the mass market. Making it NA or turbocharged and manual is like the opposite of looking ahead to the future. It's kinda dumb since the Civic and Accord already have hybrids, so I'm not exactly sure what new technology the Prelude is supposed to showcase other than the adaptive dampeners and different drive modes that the Integra already has for a lower price.

>>28808064
>fun
It's a hybrid, electric motors driving the wheels. It's no different than a locomotive in that regard. You can't even rev the engine when standing still. It has a CVT "gearbox", with FAKE gears. The shifting is simulated, essentially ruining the performance of the CVT, and not providing any actual shifting like a DCT or manual. It's the worst of both worlds. Honda really screwed up with the drivetrain.
>affordable
That'll be 60k + tip for what is essentially a two door Civic Hybrid.

>>28809912
>It's a hybrid, electric motors driving the wheels. It's no different than a locomotive in that regard
Honda hybrids are more based than than you would think, I rode in an Accord hybrid and I'm like "Damn, imagine if they could make this car smaller and have a 204HP hybrid setup", and Honda did end up making it, my only problem with the Prelude is the price, you can buy some badass cars in the realm of sports car either new like MiataBRZ or used like Corvettes and Coyote Mustangs, but then again at the same time Preludes have historically been expensive, a 2001 BB6 with Super Handling was pushing over $48,000 in today dollars for a 200HP car, so really nothing has changed, I'm starting to wonder if people maybe don't actually like Preludes and have rose colored glasses on when they look at the BB6 Prelude because it's an old car now, because lots of cars in 2001 would smoke a 5th gen Prelude for the same money.

Yeah, I would not be shitting on the price if it were anything like a 5th gen though. It's a lousy cashgrab by Honda. It's not a "sports car", it has absolutely nothing sporty about it except for some suspension parts from the CTR. It has no 4 wheel steering like the previous Preludes, no high-revving big block VTEC engine, no gran tourer aesthetics, it's just a lousy ass attempt at farming nostalgia. I honestly think Honda messed up worse than the 7th gen Civic this time.

>>28809943
Case in point, look at all the features you got in 2001
>VTEC
>torque vectoring
>double wishbones
It was to be a flagship car that crammed all the best tech into neat package. Compare that to today's Prelude with it's dismal parts-bin special drivetrain. Oh and an eCVT because a standard CVT isn't bad enough.

>>28809936
>>28809943
The problem is the new Prelude is redundant on paper because of the Civic and Integra already doing everything the Prelude does aside from being a coupe, AKA the most impractical style of car. On top of all that, the design with its short nose isn't reminiscent of the old Preludes at all. I guess if you really want the Civic's hybrid powertrain with the Integra's handling, the Prelude is your only option for like $3-4k more than the Integra A-Spec with Technology package. If they made a Type R trim with Acura's SH-AWD and priced it like the CTR, it would be a lot more attractive.

>>28809953

I don't understand the Integra Type S at all as is. They need to just go all fucking out and give it AWD and 400hp. I don't even think the tiny 2.0 has issues handling 400hp. The entire problem is the FWD.

I will be honest, the FWD on the CTR gets real old real quick, but at least it makes sense for the price/hp.

I don't understand the ITS either, since the value proposition over the CTR or TLX A-Spec isn't really there. If it had AWD and Honda's 10AT or 8DCT, then it could better compete with the European brands. Forcing MT in something that is supposed to pull double duty as a luxury daily driver is tone deaf despite what the online 'enthusiast' community claims people want. Most Honda fans who want that powertrain will buy the CTR. People who want all the Acura tech will buy the TLX with 272 HP that is more than enough for most people. The ITS and the new Prelude feel like parts bin cars because Honda still insists on making all its small cars FWD.

I've driven a few cars over the years, but I just love my Jazz. it has the best dash, temp gauges would've been cool, but that's about it. The manual is the best I've ever driven and the steering feel is the best I've driven. Brakes could've been better.

Thanks for reading a review of my lil honder.

>>28814639
>temp gauges would've been cool, but that's about it
Honda Jazz is based, you're not missing much Anon, even my Accord's temp gauge isn't that useful, it's either "stone cold", "perfectly where it needs to be", or "or holy shit I need to turn A/C off on this massive hill because it's going to the moon", it may as well be an idiot light like the Jazz.

Has anyone tried EBC yellow stuff brake pads on your Honders? I want good brake feel and feedback on my Jazz.

>>28815301
I would stick to fully ceramic brake pads on cars like the Jazz, maybe something like Powerstop Z26 at most, it's a ceramic brake pad mixed with carbon fiber bits and is a better brake pad than OE but doesn't shoot dust everywhere like the ones with metallic bits in there.

>>28816285
They're just not ideal for cars meant to be nice and quiet Anon, and it's not even like ceramic brake pads on a Jazz are the limitation in the braking system either, if you slam on the brakes on dry pavement, the brake pedal will start shaking due to ABS getting off the brakes when it locks up and starts to skid, the tires of a Jazz are the limitation, even in enthusiast driving you probably won't get to a point where the brake pads are fading out due to heat, you would be driving at such high speeds, the front tires could skid out while cornering and cause an accident anyway.

Get some Powerstop Z26 brake pads Anon, I think you'll be very happy, they even have a kit with drilled and slotted rotors for that high performance look, but they can be slapped on with regular rotors too and you'll still get better performance than most ceramic brake pads.

very curious

>>28818103
I have this car >>28818103 and this car >>28818107, both stock obviously.

The Si doesn't feel any worse than the CTR except the brakes. Shifter and clutch literally feel better (shorter). All those reviews about best shifter ever on the CTR are so full of shit. CTR feels fuckhueg, boomer Si revs so gud.

0 desire to do any of the mods in the pics above, already riced enough, none of them even look good. The only reason to have this car is you look at a Porsche, and you know that bitch is going to break, and your shit want. But over 200hp, you started understanding all the RWD fags. I want a Supra, but it's quite a bit more and not as reliable. The CTR reliability is what makes it.

I'm excited for the new GR MR2, probably will cost less than a Supra but will get you that midengine rwd experience without it breaking down/costing you thousands a year in preventive maint like a Porsche dord. I hope it will be good.
Agreed on the shifter reviewers because the s2000 shifter is better. And the current ND miata shifter is also good.

lads,,,,, the lude is ASS

I have a 10th gen accord, I do bemoan the loss of double wishbone but the chassis got way better so there's definitely a trade-off. The 2.0t weighs 3400lb, which is about 250lb lighter than the previous gen v6, with most of the weight being lost on the front end, improving the weight distribution. The car felt weird to drive until I put a 22mm rear sway bar in it which caused it to finally actually use the (very very good) rear suspension to to the bulk of the cornering duty. It's very balanced in this configuration, but the front end is still 'light' in a way that the double wishbone wasn't. The steering feels a lot better with 17" rims and good tires than the stock 19's, it cuts about 40% of the wheel weight off

>>28822925
Not him but those 10th gens are kinda beautiful riding cars, I like the sportiness and feedbackof an old CM, but the smooth ride and mechanical grip of a 10th gen on 235/40/19 is just nice.

That's hot

>>28822925
How am I coping, I said that I still prefer double wishbone and commented on other things that have improved over time. The TLX has the same chassis and double wishbone up front and the same drivetrain (or SHAWD) however it's like 400lb heavier so there's a pretty significant trade-off. The accord 2.0t is actually faster 0-60 than the AWD TLX 2.0t. I might pick one of those up used in a few years once I've wrung the accord out a lot, or try to get my hands on a TLX type-s with the TT J30

Old civic

im buying my first car soon. i want something cheap reliable and fun. is a honda civic good? if yes which version? my budget is the equivalent of 5k$ so thats around what gen8 costs but there are different engines etc. im in europe btw.

>>28823985
Yes Anon, look for the nicest newest Civics and Honda Accords for 5K, it doesn't have to be some crazy high spec car, you need one that isn't in poor condition and runs, happy hunting.

>>28823985
>if yes which version?
1987-1999. You don't need to look for a specific engine or transmission, although manual is preferable. They're all reliable.

>>28823985
7th gens are rock bottom cheap right now.

Brehs, I got some suspension parts changed and my lil Jazz is riding a bit plusher now. I got some cheap ass tpms installed. I fucking hate the stupid app.

>>28825127
>I got some cheap ass tpms installed.
Why? You really needed to install some electronic bullshit because checking the pressure with a gauge was too difficult for you?

My ILX will hit 100k miles at some point this year, so I might finally bite the bullet and buy a Type R. I think I'll drive the CTR in the summer and bring out the Acura with heated seats and all season tires in winter.
