Dem NZ boys got ek9 factory delivered in NZ so a genuine one wouldn't be as hard to come by as well as JDM front DC2Rs

Makes me angry!

[nzdh]

why do we always want wat we cant have eh?

We want the bugg eye dc2r! Only a handful here in NZ, yellow being the rarest. But here the JDM dc2r are like hemorrhoids, every second asshole's got one..
:P

[FAITHLESS]

Damn I moved to aus from nz when I was 12. Must return for ek9.

[unl3a5h]

hahaha so wait would it be possible to import ek9 from nz under personal import scheme rather than japan?


amazing car btw very jealous is that a stock intake mainfold? looks smaller?

Hahaha so true, would be funny of the japs started wanting falcodores utes Lol

[nzdh]

AFAIA AUS importing Laws are very strickt, so the chances to import a car is very unlikely.

[nzdh]

Hahaha so true, would be funny of the japs started wanting falcodores utes Lol

Aw I bet the Japs would love them lol

A couple more photos :)

[curtis265]

WHAT you get fd2r's too?


ultra jealous

[nzdh]

Only a hand full yep, about 6 I think, which one is a Mugen RR. A mind blowing car!

[EKVTIR-T]

LOVE the ek9. Welcome bro

[nzdh]

...is that a stock intake mainfold? looks smaller?

Yep factory intake manifold, same as the one that comes on a b18cr.

@ EKVTIR-T: Cheers mate :)

[FAITHLESS]

didn't see any ek9's last time i was in nz. are there many in the country?

[FAITHLESS]

wow we are missing out here:

[nzdh]

Yep still a few ek9s. Less common than the JDM dc2r, but not as rare as the bugg eye dc2r, ej7/1, fd2rs.

Theres usually about 2 or 3 ek9s on trademe at one time, but a huge amount of dc2rs.

[butterfingers]

ek9 and fd2r in NZ...

I guess at least we dont have to shag sheep.. worthy trade off... perhaps

[nzdh]

Luckily im not a kiwi so I can laugh with you, while having access to glorious fd2rs lol :)

[FAITHLESS]

I get the worst of both worlds :(

[butterfingers]

Luckily im not a kiwi so I can laugh with you, while having access to glorious fd2rs lol :)

I shall cast thee to hell

Lol.

:PI maintain that this is the only reason people do JDM front conversions. They just want to be different for the sake of it. In my opinion, the facelift bug-eyes looks much better than the JDM facelift.

Your EK looks mint.

[nzdh]

The JDM ITR is different in AUS, but not here lol in NZ we like both the bug eye and flat light ITR, but most that are aware of the rarity of the bug eye would probably prefer it over the JDM ITR. I would love a bug eye ITR!

Cheers mate
:)

[DakDak]

I think I am going to move to NZ
