I like it before and after tbh, however the standard exhaust with a de-cat sounds abit w**k on the video, no doubt is different irl.

Much prefer the jdm front end! The exhaust sounds a bit tinny and too raspy for me on the video. Might sound different in person mind. Like what you've done though :)

​Whats next for it?

Cars in the park this weekend and Japfest next weekend... so a few shows and stuff

I might upgrade the audio and the tyres next, the 16" wheels came with some Yokohama budget sounding tyres and they're pretty dire.

There is a lad on the Integra forum selling these optional extra side skirts and rear bumper though



I quite fancy them :eek:

That looks pretty good. How much is jap fest nowadays? I might go as its just down the road but if i remember its pretty expensive for a chavvy day out..lol

I've paid £20 ish and it gets me and upto 3 other people in (whoevers in my car)

Can get in the boot if you want... lol

Japfest is europes biggest, a no brainer for me! Even if it is a 420 mile round trip

Yeah just looked it's £20 per car if you're part of a club. £25 per person if not on the day. So if i go with a few mates thats a 1er between us. Madness.

UK front end is soo much nicer and more desirable but fair play for the work that's gone in and more importantly the de-chav is so much nice.
I'm sure the police approve even if CS doesn't ;)

​Bullshit asshole no one likes the tuna here

Are you on PistonHeads? Sure I've read this story before lol, only did you have black wheels at some point as well?

Basically I do actually prefer the JDM front but I still think its awesome
 
  DC2 TypeR / E36 328i
I really like it mate :)

The exhaust still sounds fantastic imo too. Do you miss the bc2?

thanks bud

Erm yeah I miss it sometimes, you know those moments where you just turn the radio down and drive? The buddyclub was epic for that

Can I ask why you didn't just buy a Jdm teg in the first place? Lol I mean there's little between them in insurance and Jdm usually have less rust and are probably cheaper to buy. Just seems like a strange thing to do.

yeah sure

JDM Tegs are more expensive for a good one, especially in 98 spec guise (which is basically a UKDM)

JDM insurance is simply a no go for me, my current insurer wouldn't even give me a quote (where as aesthical mods are fine)

Finally the main point really, its hard to buy a good teg now. Mines had recent clutch cam belt etc, so I wanted to keep the mechanical side of it

and the whole front end cost me £104 and a day or so of graft to pull off, so nothing really!
