I owned this car albeit a 2020 model year and I can attest to the specialness of that drivetrain. It's a sleeper for sure and I still go through bouts of regret for letting her go ...

installed Project Aero front lip on my CTR.

I just bought the Pentius XL (12 pack) from Amazon for about $5/per.

The mighty K24 showing its teeth again ... 😁

Just bought a case (12 count) of Pentius PLXL7317 oil filters for my Honda's. I was down to my last OG Fram Ultra and needed to resupply. I'm currently running VRP 5W-30 in my 2006 Civic EX and HPL 0w-30 Premium Plus in the 2023 CTR. ( Fram Ultra )

Luckily Amazon got it right and sent the correct filters. I was struck by the heft of these filters. They are noticeably heavier and at least feel very well made.

Mine are supposed to deliver today so I have my fingers crossed I receive what I ordered.

I've been convinced. Just ordered a 12 pack of these for my 2 Honda's. I have one old school Fram Ultra left and I was looking to source my next stash.

LSJ.... I'm in no way a shill for him and I promise I really don't care that much, but is he actually a certified tribologist? Is it truly just self-proclaimed? I honestly don't know.

It only took about 2 weeks from the time the Kia dealership told me the oil consumption test I had done came back normal to me being broken down on the side of the expressway, sitting in a pool of oil with a con rod poking out the side of the block...

I clean my engine bay twice a year and following this schedule makes nice and easy to keep it looking good.

Halfway through an OCI of HPL 0w-30 Premium Plus with 12 cases still left in my stash. That should get me to their Christmas / New Years sale should they have one.

2023 Civic Type R.. I had been using a variety of oils PUP, Kirkland, dealership bulk...etc. On my first OCI of HPL Premium Plus the oil darkened up noticeably fast. Conversely I'm 4000 mile into my 2nd OCI of the HPL and the oil had not darkened nearly as much as the first. I'd like to think...

I clean my engine bay twice a year. Mequiars Hyper dressing is a nice finishing touch. I just spray it throughout the engine bay once done cleaning and close the hood as it dries. A final wipe down helps to tame the overly glossy appearance.

I just installed Lasfit LED replacement headlight bulbs in my beater 2006 Honda Civic. It's just a bulb replacement, but what a game changer... I was reticent to drive the car in the rain or at night due to the pitiful performance of the old halogen bulbs. Now I just have to give the headlight...
