Tired of the inconsistent sometimes smooth, other times crunchy, at times hard to slot into gear shifts. So i go this protex civic em2 clutch master cylinder.

took it out for a "relatively" high speed back road run, had to with 77 degrees on an early March day.....needed to get the engine hot and revved for a change.....and am still happy with the 6 spd manual

Infrequent spirited driving sessions with these cars are the key to longevity (as well as more frequent oil change intervals)....IMHO.
It's a great way to burn off the excess fuel cause by DI, and low tension rings.
I also enjoy the 6 speed. Very rewarding to "snick" thru the gears while negotiating turns/curves

Fast Brakes are making a bracket so I can get the wilwood calipers in the back. No e-brake though...

Some states require a working e-brake to pass inspection.

First time posting here, but bought this mystic yellow pearl 6MT GK5 almost a month ago.

Today, I installed the Honda Access fog lights. Was pleasantly surprised to find out that the fit doesn't require the adapter harness like my type R did, so it was basically plug and play.

Well my silver shifter trim was all beat up when I bought the car and the shift knob had seen better days, so I took advantage of the nicest day that didn't have any errands in it!

I installed a new silver trim piece and a new shift boot from Honda that does not have orange stitching but DOES have a trim ring where it meets the shifter. I bought one of the cheapest Razo shift knobs which matches the interior pretty well and is slightly weighted to boot:





I can't remember how much the trim piece was but the shift boot was $45.

Just picked up my 15 LX last week. Only real changes thus far were installing a set of floor mats, a trunk mat, a front license plate bracket (purchased in Pennsylvania, but registered in Maryland), and scrounging up a set of OEM black lug nuts off of spares from months of doing pre-delivery inspections on new Accords and Civics (I'm a Honda technician).


The Sparco Terras (16x7 I believe) you see were installed by the previous owner. I like how they look, so I'm leaving them on.

Wet Fit

Not posted in a while and wished to show off my 2018 Sport. Had a 2007 but wanted to get something with a manual. So far I've done axle back exhaust, intake, and a rear sway bar. Planning a lot more suspension work and wheels and tires soon.
