Hey all, long time member first time poster because i just recently got my DC2R :D.

I've always wanted one, and after along time of waiting snapped this one up and loving it.

Bought it off a guy who didn't really know much about cars or hondas so a bit of work is needed to get it back to top shape but the car is bone stock.

Future plans (so far):

Jdm front
K series

Located in Perth NOR so if you see me around give me a shout!

Only decent pic i have so far, I thought i would of taken more by now but i guess i haven't!

ive never been before, but always loved the thought of a one way down hill road!
someone set up a thing FB event. and we can all add each other on Facebook (no homo intended, not that theres anything wrong with that)

there's a Perth Honda Club facebook group.

I dont lke going fast on that zig zag, mainly because you can fall to a spectacular death

GU357

13-09-2012, 04:07 PM

^this!
is it quite steep?
but still even if not fast is meant to be scenic and a nice drive.

how about just a Ozhonda one, more of a select group :P

it always is

add a few s2ks who are on members here (loosely) anyway

Mundaring weir road is nicer if u want to drive quickly and feel those bends

Where is the zigzag?

curtis265

13-09-2012, 05:34 PM

search for 'zig zag scenic drive'

http://www.lifeonperth.com/zigzag.htm
http://www.lifeonperth.com/zigturn.jpg

nice place to go at sunset for some foreveralone romance, epic view of the city and you can watch planes taking off and landing

Warning: I didn't see this until the 3rd or 4th time I went, but there were kangaroos chilling in the bushes as i drove past... these bushes are very close to the edge of the seal, so please be careful

13-09-2012, 07:03 PM

holy jeeze that is rather narrow no rails or anything....
hmm maybe a gentle drive down that one.

SINISTR

13-09-2012, 10:52 PM

Zigzag is a nice bit of road, it's narrow and can be dangerous if you drive like a knob, otherwise safe and picturesque if driven as such.

Targa west held a stage there once, if I recall correctly there was a couple of cars which came off - wasn't much left of them...

22-09-2012, 04:57 PM

Was just passing through

blaze92

04-10-2012, 06:39 PM

So got a yellow sticker for having too dark tint, read out 20 on the light thing the cop had.

Should I get the tint removed/replaced then go to the pits? Or go to the pits first and see what they say. Not to keen on paying for two visits.

curtis265

04-10-2012, 06:43 PM

take it off and get it cleared.

then do what you want after

35%'s the limit

GU357

04-10-2012, 07:20 PM

yeh, if the cop tests it and you fail, then all u can do is rip it off, to pass. or u can rip it off get some 35 and go back and see if the 35 is actually letting through 35. but best chance is to do what curtis said, that way you will definately pass.

blaze92

05-10-2012, 12:40 AM

yeah i'll probably just get it removed and then pass the pits 100% hopefully lol. DIY or do it professionally hmm

GU357

05-10-2012, 01:35 AM

did they pop open your hood?

blaze92

05-10-2012, 01:39 AM

Nope, just pulled me over (said i didn't stop at a stop sign but let me off for it) and said my tint looked too dark but might just be the cloudy weather, used the light meter and showed up 20. Didn't look at anything else and the defect notice only has tint on it.
