My 2003 DC5 Integra Type R (Bulid-ish thread.)

Its not strong, its a complete piss take lol.

At least their sense of humour is strong!

I keep looking at Evo 3RS's. They have nearly doubled in there estimated biding in 18months !!!! And the cars look more and more ropey each time !

Don't forget the pasting the Pound has had in the last 12 months @Christopher. !

I'd never been so terrified/impressed with how capable it was, in the right hands.

That's more or less exactly what my friend said after taking him round Silverstone last weekend.

Maybe an idea! Although I gave them a bit of stick when they messed me around after I bought the s15 off them 😂

The only business I've given them in 10 years is a parcel shelf for this 5.

@adamlstr I need a parcel shelf

They were a good company to deal with, REALLY good in fact. It was their aftercare once they'd fucked something up that left a lot to be desired.

Curiously i parked next to a white one the other day, not worth the premium i reckon.

I bought one thinking they were quite substantial, and it'd stop some of the exhaust drone.

Nope.


They're basically a piece of cloth.

Nice DC5, & those Rays are gorgeous!

I've recently gone the other way - sold my DC2 & brought an RS Clio - mainly to cash-in on the values that the Hondas seem to be commanding these days. In fact it certainly seems to be a sellers market out there at the moment for all sorts of 'cult' or modern classic cars - with cars that just a few years a go would have been within reach of your average car enthusiast - are now fetching (or least being advertised) ridiculously money!

BTW - despite owning the DC2 - I've never driven a DC5 - they are often compared & I would like to try one one-day.

Oh...😂 I was going to get one to try and reduce noise too.
Maybe a waste of money then.

I probably wouldn't do the move back to Renault tbh. 😂

DC2-DC5, I had an EG that had all the DC2 bits I could throw at it, and a B16A. It was a great car, but the K20 is a step forward compared to B-series.
DC2's do seem to be on the up, DC5's less so.

Found that too.
