I may just see about stopping by next time I'm out that way.

And you should have just poured your Sprite in the Clutch Master. The liquid will settle down to the low points and the bubbles would come out the top. It basically bleeds itself!

(or siphon off some fluid from the brake master and put it in the clutch to get you down the road)

Yup, not bad, but the tires I picked up are square 265/40/18....

NT03's are
18x9.5 +40
18x8.5 +38
Not too far off, but those wheels can't fit BBK for shit. I was running a 5mm spacer up front so it's pretty much +35 just to barely clear

Anyone know where to get the low profile wing trunk lip that is already painted black? The OEM one is $400+ and the amazon/ebay ones I have seen look too cheese ball.

ok.... so I have ridge ventilation as I have come to realize, and my amateur investigative skills point to ridge vented attics not needing attic fans (supposedly they are really good at venting hot air). I confirmed I do have continuous soffits around the entire outside of my house so there should be sufficient flow. I just got up there with a laser thermometer and today it was 84F and sunny.. I measured 147F under the roof. That seems waaaay high. I don't understand what's happening. I have about 10in R30 insulation running along the entire floor of the attic. It was measuring about 110F and the the gable was measuring around 135F. I have no trees or debris that could build up over the ridge vent, nor really anything that could block the soffits around the outside...

What gives??

The insulation is on the floor so it's insulating the heat IN the attic.. aka not into your house (as much) people were recommending insulation against the roof itself.

Ridge vents may be good and all but without airflow. That heat ain't going anywhere.

I think running 18x10 +39 w/ 265/40's is a bit much for the stock body of the TSX.... YOLO

I've heard of some space blanket type material that you could put up there that doesn't cause mold to grow.. but the ridge vent.. it is SUPPOSED to flow air by natural design. kinda like a grill intaking air from the bottom while the hot air rises out the top.But anyway something doesn't seem to be working, 147F.. those temps should be in like Texas or FL heat when outside temp is close to 100F.

Also... if I want a fan now I have to cut a hole in the side of the gable because I only have a ridge vent. Or just put a box fan in the middle of the attic facing up. But that sounds kinda stupid. sighhhhh

You dont have gable vents? I have a ridge vent plus two gable vents in my attic. My attic is also really hot but I dont have an exact number for you. Ill try to find my meat thermometer and find out my temp.

I'll see if I can throw a termocouple up in the attic this afternoon as well for another data point. But FWIW, those numbers don't seem too bad. Like thoi said, all the insulation in your attic keeps the attic hot but your house cool. I mean, you're likely not *making* heat up there (within reason, considering if you have your HVAC and/or water heater up there), so whatever you're seeing is what it is. You can probably knock it down a little bit with additional insulation, but there's a threshold where it's just friggin hot.
