Where can I get them? I can't read the brand in the photo. TIA.

My thoughts as well, but I think the recall notice will show up in a Carfax report, which will also show if you got it fixed or not (could be a problem when selling the car). But maybe you can get a free wheel alignment. See this post for more details.

+1 on that! But maybe there's an extra benefit to this. Did anyone notice in the Service Bulletin posted by @jayy_swish, Step 24 is "Do a wheel alignment". So if you have future plans that may require a wheel alignment, maybe you can get it at no extra cost? Can we get this repair on our...

Anti-seize is applied to threads, to prevent galling and also inhibits corrosion. It's good practice to apply it (sparingly) to wheel studs so the nuts will come off easily even after being left on for long periods of time. Reduce torque values by 20 to 30% compared to dry torque specs. Here's...

As you tighten the flat-faced lug nuts against the raised conical seats of the wheel, the seats will distort (flatten) and the holes will get slightly smaller. If you tighten too much it could distort a seat enough to get locked onto the stud, preventing you from removing the wheel from the hub...

Correct - Use the non-serrated (flat face) style. Here's a set of 5 on Amazon for $14

You can use Jam Nuts on top of the Flange Nuts for extra security, as I stated in this post. Re: BMW and other German cars use lug bolts - The lug nuts that fit the spare tire wheel are for 12mm studs, our studs are 14mm. So I thought why not machine down some 14mm lug nuts to fit in the 12mm...

I agree 100%, but I didn't want the blue tint so I bought and installed this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BQ78T4LT I'm very happy with it, and it's only $30! The curvature is exactly the same as your passenger side mirror, which I find also helps when backing up. The mirror's optical...

Excuse me for reviving an old thread, but perhaps I can offer some peace of mind to those concerned about this (I was). I've been researching this for 2 months now and was told by two different techs at Honda In-Car Technology Support (888-528-7876) that the ITS does not have a TCU (Telematics...

Congratulations on your success, however you have just driven up the price of those two items for the rest of us :(

Very interesting article - Thanks for sharing. It sounds like it uses changes in dynamic ride height for brake vectoring and is probably feedback loop controlled, so it should be adaptive with respect to changes in static ride height. Is brake vectoring (aka Agile Handling Assist) completely...

I run the same drain plug in my S2000 - That looks pretty normal. But was the black stuff smooth or gritty when rubbed between your fingers? Smooth is fine, gritty not so good. Looking forward to seeing the lab report.

Yes, after further investigation I agree. More details for those interested: I asked @jayy_swish if it might be possible to disable VSA by powering off the Yaw Sensor (as is commonly done on 350/370Z's) with a simple on/off switch. His reply: So I was doing research on where the yaw rate...

I did that. Sorry for the long post that follows I asked: I and many others are interested in a device that could emulate the "pedal dance" required to shut off VSA (completely, not just reduced). In theory, this device would connect into the parking brake switch, the brake pedal (brake light)...

It should be possible to make a device that emulates the pedal dance, similar to the way the Acura IDS Controller activates Individual mode on start up. It would only need to connect to the parking brake switch, the brake pedal (brake light) switch and the TCS/VSA button. It could be activated...

Maybe it's just me, but I'd prefer if VSA was never on, so I'd like to fool the system in a way that it thinks it's on but does nothing. Maybe this will be my own personal crusade, but I'd like to know more about how it works - what inputs to it and what do its outputs do? If it only engages...

It would be great if someone could find a way to disable (or disconnect) just the outputs from the VSA module so it would think it was always on, but actually had no effect on throttle or brakes. Is that possible?

Thanks for the quick reply. That's a bummer.

When I turn VSA off completely (via pedal dance) the "Driver Information Interface" (on the right hand side, inside the speedo) shows only "VSA" in the lower left. If I roll the right hand selector on the steering wheel I can get other info to display (e.g. tire pressures) but it only stays that...

Aluminum plug in aluminum casting = bad idea. Titanium so they can charge more $$$. Note that the oil drain plug is M14x1.5 but the trans plug is M20x1.5. See https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/magnetic-oil-drain-plug.51712/post-845312 for more info. I bought the Votex drain plugs -...
