re: Costco is Back in the Honda world, with a 2017 Civic Si.

Congrats on the purchase! I'm poking around this forum because I just bought a black 17 Civic Si coupe myself.

Re: Road car suspension/chassis advice

You're talking about softening the front dampers and stiffening the rear? What do you recommend for a rear brace?

Re: Road car suspension/chassis advice

Thank you. So you're suggesting traction bars, bigger sway bars, and coilovers? Plus a rear subframe brace.

Re: No power when pressing gas pedal

I've seen this problem before, it's because you drive a Honda. It's not quite as bad if you have a stick-shift, but it's still a Honda. Get a WRX or an EVO.
