    DIY $ 15 temp gauge

    I'm actually working on this, or will be shortly. I've got all the parts, I just need to test them to make sure it'll all work. I'm basing what I'm doing on the info from @ADExternal 's backup camera work. Essentially what I plan on doing is mounting an OEM pushbutton in one of the knockouts...

    Oil Leak

    Busy couple days! I took my car back to Honda yesterday and they took another look and couldn't find any sign of a leak. Their only explanation is that possibly some fluid had been spilled at some point and when I cleaned the pan area myself I didn't get everything up higher and it ran back...

    Cable Bushings ???

    Yep, what hotdogjohnny said. The base bushings go a long way to making the shifts feel very solid and mechanical as well. I really like the more precise feel. I think of it as being more like a bolt action rifle. The difference for just the cable bushings alone was somewhat subtle, but that and...

    Cable Bushings ???

    I got the Corsport base bushings and the Hybrid Racing cable bushings and am very happy. The Hybrid Racing cable bushings appear to be very well made.

    Oil Leak

    @hotdogjohnny - I suspect the front of the oil pan myself, but we'll see after I take it back next week. It is difficult to say as I couldn't easily see it when I was under there and they couldn't either on the lift. @Dennis Rockholt - Nope, they didn't say a word about them. Nothing at all...

    Oil Leak

    Didn't have a chance to look closer yesterday, so I just took it in this morning. The whole process was completely painless. No charge to inspect it (or fix if they can find the issue). They called back a few minutes ago to let me know they couldn't find the leak after running it on the lift...

    Oil Leak

    Nix - I should have mentioned, the oil level hasn't change much if at all and is between the marks, so I imagine the leak is fairly slow. I also don't get accumulation under the car where I park, so I suspect it's mostly leaking out while heated up/driving. I've not yet changed the oil as I'm...

    Oil Leak

    Thanks for the quick replies! I honestly didn't attempt to pinpoint exactly where it was coming from when I first saw it as I was losing the sun and I was getting a bit tired/had to work the next day. I looked enough to see that the front of the oil pan was wet (not just the bottom), but I...

    Oil Leak

    Long-time mostly lurker here... I've got a 2013 Si (FB6) and while bolting up my fullrace downpipe I noticed that my oil pan was somewhat wet with oil. Just to be sure, I checked the drain bolt, though the leak appears to be coming from the front. The bolt was plenty tight, so I cleaned...

    Flashpro / PRL CAI Questions

    Finished up the install of my FR downpipe last night. The downpipe doesn't touch anything at all, fit beautifully. I did have to adjust my cat-back section some again after the install as the FR downpipe pushed everything back farther and I ended up with a terrible rattle between the muffler...

    Flashpro / PRL CAI Questions

    I purchased one from AutoZone last night for $10.99... They told me to bring it back if it doesn't fit (I took my other larger one with me so I'd be sure that whatever I got was indeed thinner-walled)... I figure if it doesn't fit I'll take a file to it until it does! I prefer to just have...

    DIY Full-Race 3" Downpipe and Catback Exhaust System

    Yes, exactly that. When I first installed it, I had a heck of a time getting things aligned well enough by myself to get the nut on the v-band. Finally I managed to get it on there, but it really gave a false sense of how much adjustment you have to twist the pipe around, or would end up...

    Flashpro / PRL CAI Questions

    I have only installed the cat-back part, the downpipe was on backorder. I've got that now and started on it last night, but my o2 sensor socket was too beefy to fit. Got a new one that hopefully will fit, but won't be able to look at it again until tomorrow... I'll report back after I either...

    DIY Full-Race 3" Downpipe and Catback Exhaust System

    FYI - the three bolts on the heat shield near the strut towers on each side are 12mm. I also found that my large 1/2" drive O2 sensor socket was too large to get onto the top O2 sensor, so I picked up a lighter duty 3/8" drive with thinner walls from Autozone this evening, will try fitment of...

    Flashpro / PRL CAI Questions

    I did not reflash my ECU for more than a week after I installed the PRL intake and didn't get any codes... EDIT: Also, I should mention that with both the PRL intake and a cat-back FR 3" exhaust (installed after the PRL intake) that I had fairly significant hesitation before reflashing a base...
