hey guys,
I posted something similar in the integra section because i didnt know where to put it, but basically i am a uni student with low income weekly but could still run a car, i want to buy a type r and was thinking of the dc5 because its aus spec and supposedly is easier to maintain when it comes to parts etc.
but you being ep3 owners, can you please shed some light if it costs more to own an ep3 over a dc5 ? if so how much would you say aproximately and in what department (servicing, parts etc..).
obviously being a uni student i want reliability etc otherwise i would of waited longer and bought a turbo but i plan on keeping the type r i buy for a couple years.
i would really appreciate if the owners could shed some light on the costs and difficulty of owning an ep3 over dc5 if there is any.
thanks in advance
