You're car is friggin awesome. Good job.
Back to th RSR springs. I'm trying to decide between the regular or super down. You went with super down, correct? But you said minimal drop. Still happy? No rubbing?

"Honda Fit With GK5 Chassis Code 2015-2016, Super Down™ Lowering Spring Kit with 0.6"-0.8" Front and 0.8"-1.0" Rear Body Drop by RS-R®."


Honestly memory must be playing tricks because I though I had just bought the "down" set... Whatever it is, it's the drop mentioned above, which has been perfect on Foxy. No rubbing ever.

Thanks for getting back. I read back. You did say super down. What size tires do you have?
I will have to pay for install. I wonder what that runs in California.

I have stock wheels and tires on mine currently. There's still a good bit of room for travel with the springs...not that I'd try to get 18s in there, but probably enough for very low profile 17s...

Nice dude! I'm doing the same in a few weeks. I HATE having a car note!!! I was car loan free for 6 years before the Fit and I want to get there again. At least I got a 1.49% rate so it's almost like borrowing for free, but still I want to get rid of it.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year bud! Being debt free for the first time in 18 years is the best feeling.

So looking into wheels and have decided on Konig Backbones at 16x7 4x100 40mm. Konig's site shows them at 15.2lbs a piece and have found them for around $100 each! 2 months left...

Having difficulty finding a good supplier/price with these in stock. Discount Tire is the lowest I've found at $456 shipped.

Plenty of youtube "how-to"s out there for this kind of thing.

Weapon R Secret Weapon intake

Performance mods completed so far (in chronological order):

1. HKS Hi-power Silent muffler - $300 - SUPER easy install, sounds a helluva lot better, not really all that noticeable difference in power TBH. Worth the money just for the go sounds. Bought from Kamispeed.
2. 10mm spacers on the rear wheels - $40 - Not the perfect purchase on my part. I had to grind out the rear of the spacer to make them fit properly due to the lip on the drum assembly. Had I done my research properly on this, would have been an easy 10 minute job. Makes a big difference in appearance. Amazon.
3. Tanabe Sustech strut tower bar - $130ish? - Absolute pain in the ass to get the mounts in. Really odd bolt points and difficult to get it tightened down properly. Once the mounts are in, easy job. TBH not super sure this makes much if any difference in handling, but it looks nice. Not convinced I'd do it again. THMotorsports.
4. Progressive 19mm rear sway bar - $178 - 4 bolts and PRESTO rear roll almost completely gone. Definitely would purchase again! Axion Industries.
5. Weapon-R secret weapon intake - $214 - very similar to the muffler. Makes nice noises, not really any easily noticeable difference in power. Butt dyno says more low end torque, but I could be wrong. I'd pass on this mod if you're looking for power. I'm sure there's other, better, options out there. Looks very nice in the bay. For the money, it's an ok purchase. Not super thrilled. Quality Vertical Doors on eBay.
6. RS-R SuperDown coils - $220 - by miles the biggest pain to install of anything I've done. HUGELY noticeable difference in ride. I would have paid double to get the results. Very happy with this purchase. Bought from CarID, who was pretty awesome about quite a few things.
7. Buddy Club Short Throw Shifter - $160 - nice crisp shift action. Significantly improves daily driving feel.
Does the Secret Weapon R Secret Weapon intake fit on a 2015 Fit with CVT?

Pretty sure it does, all the differences between the trans are further down in the engine bay. I would suggest checking with the manufacturer.
