I'd pass with the 'Civic Si' engraved third brake light overlay. It will be redundant since your car already has emblems on the trunk saying 'Civic Si'. Lol.

 

[bigbossin]

i would say if your de badged like me and you wanted it to still say si some how

 

[Dar-Dar]

^True.

 

[Dar-Dar]

I cleaned the spark plugs by sanding it and using an air compressor. There's so many to remove just to get these plugs out. Lol. At least I'll know how to remove them when I get new spark plugs or paint the valve cover.

 

[webby]

just said to yourself... I feel like cleaning the spark plugs today?

 

[Dar-Dar]

Yeah. Lol. I'm going to see if this will improve my gas mileage. Currently, I'm getting 25mpg average on 50/50.

 

[SiEnthusiast]

On an Si?

 

[Dar-Dar]

07 Si Coupe.

 

[SiEnthusiast]

I'm getting about the same. http://www.fuelly.com/driver/simiami/civic-si
I know i can break 30 maybe even get to 35, but i didnt buy the car to drive like a grandma

 

[Dar-Dar]

The best I got was 34mpg. That was with a 70mph cruise. Lol.

 

[9thgizzyguy]

ok vito on the civic si overlay but umm they have an overlay dat says HONDA lol

 

[bootyluvr]

Stainless steel brake lines, new brake fluid, new belts (power steering/AC), oil change, fix rear rotor grinding noise

 

[bigbossin]

they should be here thursday was cheaper to buy both, but i only plan on putting the front one on!

 

[07TLX]

Oil change before The Dragon

 

[Dar-Dar]

Not mine, but my dad's 2011 Pilot. The stock front brakes were bad and it was making the steering wheel shake during high speed braking. My dad and I replaced them with Power Slot slotted rotors and the problem was fixed. I couldn't find blanks for it, only Centric ones (I didn't know much about the brand). Then I realized that Powerslot is part of Centric. Lol.

Oh well, the brake feel also improved greatly.

My 2003 Pilot's brakes have always been that way. They get shaky, I replace/fix them, over and over. They are clearly a lousy design.
