https://www.facebook.com/groups/hondapartsforsale/permalink/816192805067962/ Hopefully it will let you see that, but its a JDM DC2 type r 104k miles for £3600 and looks to be in fairly good shape, few mods aswell but nothing major seems about average milage to me but im not looking for a low mileage minter to be honest but i will agree that an EK9 for less than £4000 will be hard to come by so im swaying towards the DC2 now but we shal see what happens when its closer to the time

Looks good but i wont have the money until next year, just want something to aim for

yeah i think EK9 is pretty much out of it but ive seen a few DC2's for roughly £4000, DC5, imprezas and evos are all well over my budget though

hadn't considered that but I was talking to a guy at work today who recently got a Mk5 golf R32, he says the tax on that is over £400! Mental.

did consider an RX8 but i dont like the look of them, if RX7's were the same price i would be all over that!

Accord, Altezza and Chaser's are a good call but i dont fancy them either :/

yeah id like a nice clean daily one, drifting can quickly ruin a nice car, would hate to see a car of my own in such a state

Yeah DC2 seems pretty ideal

just not a fan of the look of them to be honest :/

Really liking the idea of a R32 GTS or GTST now...

that does look pretty cool, might have a look around, but still think running costs would be steep

yeah i will be checking insurance closer to the time and skylines would be cool but i can see them being pricey to maintain, and DC5's are out of my price range too

i do like VIP cars but i forgot to mention the mountain of a curb to get into my cul-de-sac not fond of the AE111 either :/

haha maby one day, but not feeling it right now

yes, but i would love an evo

Haha, two good points

Had a quick look, only really like the later ones but they're well out of my price range D:

not a big fan im afraid, but good shout Good idea, il look into it!

That link goes to an S15? i would love one but i cant afford an S15, and as much as i would love a 14 i dont think it would be practical enough, i will be taking a closer look at a friends soon but i would like to be able to take 3 adults + me

im thinking its most likely going to be a DC2, white would be nice but it would need to be the JDM front end or no deal.

Hi all, Im going to be strait, im not enjoying my Glanza as much as I would like. Its just not what im looking for at the moment, if i could have it as a second car it would be better but its just too much of a toy, need something a bit bigger and more grown up but still fun to drive, with a bit of character and cool-ness (and still be Japanese too). The three I'm thinking at the moment are; Civic EK9, Integra DC2 or a Nissan s14 The issues ive got is that I quite often take passengers in the back (struggle in the Glanza, knocking exhaust and scrubbing tires aren't cool) and I don't have the facilities to do big repairs or maintenance (not that the Glanza ever needs any but it restricts my options for a next car) looking at the three cars ive chosen they all have downsides EK9, very expensive and look a bit pedestrian S14, lack of rear leg room and possibly high maintenance DC2 im not sure i want one very much but it seems to tick all of the boxes (unsure of rear leg room if anyone can shed some light) Budget will be about £4000 if all goes well and insurance dependant as I will only be 21 when it comes time to buy the new car. I'm not sure if I'm being too fussy but if anyone has any other ideas or information on the cars I've mentioned it would be much appreciated.
