DevonGT Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Been thinking about getting one of these for a while now and finally took the plunge through TorqueGT. It was the second car they sent details of and I really didn't expect to get it for my budget. But we did and though it was slightly over my budget, they honoured it and made up the difference. These are the only pics I have at the moment, from the auction sheet.http://torque-gt.ajes.com/st-0gHsgN47wXVZbux.htm The car as only had the one owner and comes with a spare key. Also only had the Jap MOT in April.Just waiting for a shipping date and loads more pics. Quote

DevonGT Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 Bit of an update. Got a current ETA of 20th Febuary, although that will probably change as it hasn't left yet. But I have been sent more pics of the car. Quote
GlanzaJim Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 These are crazy. a jap man owns one here n ashford. Gets so many looks. People think what is it! Quote

Djaniero Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 The only other civic I would have apart from an ek9...very capable car with the right drivers. Looks awesome mate. You got any plans for her or leaving it stock? Quote

You got any plans for her or leaving it stock? Thanks mate. Will be staying stock for a while at least. A lot of owners seem to change the suspension set up, as it's very firm. I'll see what it's like in a couple of months and decide then. Quote

Yeah they seem to be extremely track focussed out of the box.....I've heard a couple of people mention changing the suspension...but the more hardcore honda nuts love it the way it is lol. Are you a member on ek9.org? Quote

Are you a member on ek9.org? One of the reasons I went for it, was the handling. I'm on the FD2 and CTR owners forums. Quote
Djaniero Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Cool. Have a gander on there too. Quite a few fd owners on there with a wealth of knowledge. I think its better than the other 2 you listed but that's just my opinion lol Quote
