EP3? Don't be a r****d, I know you're captaining a barge at the moment but take the opportunity to change to something with some sort of steering feel.

I just fancy a change when my insurance drops, and it'd make sense to save money during that change, would it not?

1.6VTEC, on some coilovers, some noice jap poke, etc. etc. The 1.6 is a good engine tbh so why not? ha!

You'll be meaning an EP2 then

[Tombo]

The white DC2 at the top of the page is stunning! I don't think I've ever seen a better looking one than that...

Sure is. Anything he should know lol?!

 

[Turkish]

Nah, just seen it advertised that's all. I'm looking for a "full fat" one in CS terms. Can't be dealing with winding windows, even my GT Turbo had leccy windows in it lol

Who the F**K puts 'lambo doors' on a Corolla?!

The grey one in the main shot looks amazing, though. Tyres are Huge! Quite like riveted arches too. Hmm.....

Somebody with big balls because it's different but s**t

[Turkish]

Pity about the USDM powerplant on this one.

 

[Gaz.]

LS?

 

[Turkish]

Certainly looks that way.

 

[Gaz.]

Doesn't look too big in there, I like it.

 

[Owen]

Despite much encouragement from me, my mum still isn't convinced that her mx-5 needs stance.

 

[dutty_112]

[MaLicE]

At least they won't rub. I like overkill engineering.

Bet it's like sitting in a lumberjack's wardrobe. Other than that, I love it.

[Gally]

I just had a moment. I'd like to see more Milano Red though!

 

[Christopher]

Nice find!

When I get my EK I would be sorely tempted but as it wont be a pure track car I'd want to retain the A/C and as much of a lazy one K swaps give me I do wonder if it's possible to retain it. I'm yet to see one done that hasn't had ABS, A/C and/or PAS torn out of it too.
