ali_legend Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Right people sold my Ek last week so thought it was about time I bought something, having previously owned a uk spec dc2 I thought its time I purchased a jdm one! I was searching around a while and my brothers mate actually told me he's selling his! Having owned the car 3 years and knowing the guy I know it was cared for and with 85k on he clock I could refuse! He did add some mods that arnt to my liking tbh but here's the spec list - Honda Integra Type R DC2 1997.Imported by WRC with full japaness history (Well known reputeable importers, have receipt of purchase)UndersealedMOT May 2014New break pads all aroundRecently serviced with Motul oil, Hamp oil filter,gear box oil,fuel filter and Iridum high grands plugsAftermarket Spark plug leadsExedy clutchAftermarket Flywheel (Already fitted when imported)Topfuel carbon induction chamber with HKS filter4-1 SS Exhaust Manifold (not sure of make)Tegiwa De-catJapspeed Exhaust systemChampionship WhiteRed recaro seats(No tears)Genuine INGS full Bodykit Tein coilover suspension.(street race setup)Toyo Proxies T1R all around with plenty of lifeStandard Enkie AlloysJ's Racing Carbon BonnetCusco BrakestopperCusco under braces (front, boot and back)HEL Aluminium Braided brake hosesTegiwa tow hookCarbon style rear lights (still have original)D1 wheel nutsMomo Race steering wheelDouble Din Touchscreen DVD playerJapan toll speaking computer still fitted to carThe rear lights are gash and will be changed as soon as I source some original ones, also the ING's kit isn't too my taste so that will be for sale and I'll be going back to OEM! Anyway enough talking, here's some piks!! When I first got it! I couldn't stand the shopping list on the door so today I set about removing the stickers and the sun strip sticker! Also I took out the DVD player and fitted my Hu!That's all for now folks but keep your eyes peeled as I have plenty of plans for it! Comments welcome...

ali_legend Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Right lads update time! Since owning the car I wanted to get her on a dyno to see what figures I have to start with, so went over to garage786 and chucked her on the rollersWas VERY happy with the results seeing as though I just have an exhaust and induction Later on in the day I thought enough is enough and went about changing the rear lights and ripping the A/C out! Yesterday I spend the whole day down my mates cleaning the car, treated her to the full works, wash/clay/polish etc.. Headlights before Headlights after a polish ;)Also purchased some wheels! After cleaning the car I'm very happy with the paintwork, was exacting little niggles to show up and even rust spots but the car is rust free!!! Also changed the thermo stat as temps weren't rising as they should and all is well now! That's all for now people Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andyllewellyn Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Wow this is very nice!Do you mind me asking how much as i am just about to get either a edm one of these or a late ep3 type r, a friend has a nice black teg with less than 100k and probs looking at £3500.LOve the teg as without all the sound deadening when the vtec comes on it sounds freaking fantastic and the way the diff pulls out of corners is insane, going to be a difficult decision but i will have a honda at the end.Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I weighed out the ep3 over a dc2 by a long way! I paid a little over £4k but I knew te previous owner had owned the car for 4 years and done 7k, also with the car being on 86 k I couldn't say no!! love where this is going good work mate, my ignis will be going in the summer and looking a getting a DC2 so i will be keeping an eye on this james Wahey! Dc2's are really nice cars man! I previously owned a UK spec dc2 so this time had to be jdm! u need to get a silencer put in the exhaust it is lacking back pressure.It's on the list! Way to loud for me ATM lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
