I'm curious if something like Gummipfleg or Honda's Shinetzu grease would help the rubber seals and reduce the creaking noise?

I need some of that grease, the door seals on the M3 is squeaking like crazy.

The mk7.5 is better in every way. Especially with the mods he added to it, it’s super tight, handles like an absolute dream with literally no deadspot in the steering. Ugh it’s so insanely good I got no words to describe it.


I purposely looked and yes, I wasn’t imagining things. The old ones had felt seals. That’s why you never hear the body creaking. These mk8 hard rubber seals are utter garbage. Facetroll says his doesn’t creak. He’s a face trolling liar. Any body flex and these hard rubber seals make gay noises.

Yeah handicapped. Cuz it’s retarded.

The M3 has two rubber seals at double the price, don't complain. The X5 has felt seals.

Think of it this way, they couldn't get the MK7 to meet minimum requirements so they had to splurge on felt seals.

Badhobz has some. I'm sure he'd be happy to lend you some. :pokerface:

Haven't been to Gastown in years and it might be years until I go back again.

Revolution has been gone for a while now but I still have a bunch of plate frames. The 'R' tends to fade over time, so I just switch it out to a new one.

Actually I saw this guy in Richmond yesterday, around 5:30pm stopped on Granville at No.3 heading eastbound. I was driving an Ioniq 5, pulled up next to him, and was about to wave but the light turned green and I turned right. Apologies for my son's potato pic:

Hey you tinted it !!! Looks good

Third time I have driven it this year LOL. Livin dad life to the max.
Kid in a 3rd gen LHD Supra was goin nuts when he saw me coming. Exchanged waves and head light pop ups. That made my day.

The car remains an absolute blast to drive. Every drive (even a short one this time just to run a few errands) is sensory overload. It is loud as F, and more so when the top is down (to the point that I wear ear plugs on longer drives over 30 mins). It has no power steering. Its lower than the window line on most cars, you are literally sitting on the ground. After a 20-30 min drive I am content and usually head home.

Took the Honda down to Waterton. Waking up at 3am to get a head start was worth it!

Wind power!

I love those

bcrdukes 08-19-2025 06:29 AM

Nice photos, GS8! (Also neat Pontiac...G8?)

I'm curious about the HR-V: Was it meant to replace a certain model within Honda's line up? Or was it just a misfit model came out of nowhere?

68style 08-19-2025 07:22 AM

It’s for people who can’t afford the prestigious CRV but still want a Honda suv

Nice! Are those 360 wheels?

nismodrifter 08-19-2025 08:04 AM

Yep. They are 18" vs the stock 17". They give the car a bit more modern look vs the stock wheels which look like they are from the 80s. OEM+.

It's for ppl that want a Fit but can't get one anymore. It's also ugly as sin.

If you want a fancier one you can go get a ADX! I saw a ADX on the road the other day and I had to do a double take because I had no idea what it was.

roastpuff 08-19-2025 09:56 AM

The HR-V was for when the sub compact SUV market was booming (CX-3/CX-30, RVR, Trax etc).

Now it's almost as big as a gen 2 CR-V.

It was an Asia-market model before coming here iirc.

Traum 08-19-2025 09:59 AM

The current HRV is basically a jacked up Civic wagon, burdened with the base NA 2.0L engine, isn't it?

I actually quite like that engine -- it's a K20 engine that behaves exactly like what you'd expect from a workhorse K engine. Except that Honda is making it haul far too much weight than what the engine can handle.
