Cheers mate, I agree it's the best colour but it's bugger trying to keep it looking good!

Class!

Exactly how I used to feel! Haha

Did the 4k kick bring on a prem ejac?! I'll pop over as soon as we get a dry day with the secret cleaning solution Chris!

Cheers, It's hard work but I'm just trying to keep it as clean as possible!

Thought that'd make someone chuckle!

Small Update! Apologies in advance for the first 3 photo's, they were taken using my iPhone. Having a shiny steering wheel was really starting to bug me and after reading a thread over on ITR-DC5.com with a chap using "magic sponges" he'd ordered from Ebay to sort his steering wheel out, i...

Mine sits quite well and that's on Eibach Pro springs, maybe they're easier to get hold of than the Spoon progressives?

That wheel colour has really set your DC5 off, looks ace!

Adam seems to be one of very few people I know who who doesn't appreciate fine Japanese engineering!

That's funny! I actually thought it was Kim but when I realised it wasn't I just though I'd show how a car should sound! LoL

Like many other people have said, I've never had an issue with them and mine are 18 months old.

When was yours imported? Maybe it spent more time in Japan than mine, mine was only over there for 3 years.

Nice upgrade! My Step Father has one in green on a set of super rare RAYS wheels, in-fact it was featured in one of the ford mags a few months back. What a machine!

Are Rota's that bad?!

I think I saw your advert for the Cup you have, did you mention about trying Jap? I couldn't get rid of the urge either, exactly the same as you. I just had to go for it and I'm so glad I did, such a sorted car as I'm sure you know if you've looked into owning one.

Sorry mate but have you seen the weather recently!

172 Cup, the DC5 gives a load more grip around Islands etc...

Bjorn - If I can get mine looking anything like your old CW 'teg I'll be a happy chappy!

Cheers Martin! The headlights had only just started to cloud over so I caught them early and only needed a few minutes with the DA to bring them up nicely. My 172 Cup was quite bad when I first had it, I used 1000 grit wet & dry on them which did the trick followed by Meg's ultimate compound...

I'm in no rush to sell it so it will just sit on the drive until someone comes along with the right money. I can see how people think but it really is false economy, why not just pay a good price for a sorted car that needs for nothing.

I can't believe you Chris, the best deserves only the very best treatment!

Fingers crossed for you mate, I'll always have a spare Recaro for you though bud!

Today I've got a couple of things that were annoying me done on the car. When i first brought it home i noticed that the passenger side Integra Type R decal was a little damaged so i ordered a new one from Honda, rather pricey at 32 quid! Before DSC_0414 by Wayne J Keggans, on Flickr The...

I'll show you whats what next year, the Integra will be getting some track time in!

That's very true Martin, my car is in a different league to your average £1,500 172 Cups though as I'm sure you'll agree. I'm not pussy Chris, i just prefer to live my life a 1/4 mile at a time!

Not through a lack of trying! I've had quite a few messages about it but seems no one wants to pay my asking price.

Yeah it's a K-Series VTEC unit. The DC5 looks very similar to European Civic Type R's engine wise but does have a few fundamental differences. The box for example has different gear ratios and VTEC engagement and rpm limit are different. I'll be honest and say I can't really compare the DC5 to...

I'm not going to lie, the insurance cost has pretty much doubled from the Clio but hey, you only live once!

I think a set of bronze Rota Fighters are on the cards in the new year!
