The Blackwings Build & Price Tool is Live!

You know, I've had bad luck with "custom wheels"so I stay with the OEM, but with that being said those are cool looking and would be so easy to clean...

I am disappointed the magnesium are not available. Even my type-r came with lighter forged wheels and it cost 40k less

@Nino313 & @ajamils twins separated by the transmission.

Actually Nino has all the carbon Aja base exterior no?

These wheels are all forged aluminum on the Vs too.

Oooh this one is a stunner too. Seeing a lot of austin cool grey anybody go tan yet?

Steve do you happen to know if they will limit the power and rpm until the vehicle passes the break in period.

No limit just a guide with the red line for first 500 miles.

Good eye!

You mean for fat/big/weight challenged guys like me?Hahahahahaha

Hahah yeah exactly. I’m not in my 30s anymore (or 40s for that matter)! Thanks @Mirza Grebovic I actually have the base seats in my V3 because the Recaros didn’t have the ventilation. This is a welcome change!

Certainly going to show off your rotors and calipers.

So what does that mean? I thought I read that there would some sort of 500 mile limit...

I would assume that means the digital gauge has a very low redline, but no associated rev limiter; and at 500 miles on the odometer the redline moves up to the 'true' redline approximately where the rev limiter sits.

I believe it means the redline will move to the appropriate spot based on mileage

The red line is lowered to around 4000 rpm visually. But you can go past it. So its a guide for the first 500 miles. When you hit 500 it moves to the final. In addition, even after break in, its lowered sometimes to 5xxx or 6000 forgot exact until oil warms up a bit.

U know at times when adrenaline kicks in things can speed up very quickly.

Does any one know the prices and weight differences on the magnesium wheels. There is no longer a tan trim level for the ct5-v blackwing unless there is a error on the configuration build tool.

That's pretty slick!

Years ago, I was told to break in my motorcycle by keeping the RPM low in general like the manual says; but after warming it up, doing a couple smooth runs up to redline would help seat the rings and such. Not max-effort launches, just keep rolling on throttle.

Guess that's no longer the preferred solution. Or maybe since it was British so no one figured it'd last either way...

I am still breaking in my 2021 limited edition honda civic type-r. It is the best feeling when another sport car comes and messes with you and all you can do is smile and wave.

I still see the tan as an option? There is no tan for the mid level interior in CT5, only comes in jet black and gray. That tan option is available on the CT4-V Blackwing.
