Bit of a positive rant!! ITR'S

[Neesmo31]

Having just purchased a ITR 99 DC2, i couldnt be happier.

I owned a pretty warm R31 skyline, lots of money spent... and the integra blows it away in basically every aspect of motoring.

The ITR is bloody fast, handles like a slot car, brakes on a dime, is great on fuel, looks great, cheap on rego and the list goes on. I simply love the car and if i had my time again i would have bought a ITR as soon as i could afford one.

They are simply awesome cars and its a pleasure to hop in it and drive it. And its still factory standard!

Im only going to put a exhaust and a j's intake on it, just to give it a nice note and maybe a carbon bonnet. Thats it. I dont really feel the need to change something that was done sooo right from the factory.

The only hassle i have with the car is price of parts and these clowns at the local honda dealer annoy me. Other than that im a happy ITR driver.

Why didnt you guys tell me before! lol Thanks and youll be hearing a lot more from me in the future.

Cheers.

Welcome aboard mate but 1 warning dont take ur car to HONDA for any kind of servicing i have learnt my lession big time just some friendly advice.

Its still only a Honda at the end of the day.

[Neesmo31]

Thanks mate. As much as it pains me to have some clown working on my that isnt me (i did all the work to my skyline minus the computer wiring) I want the stamp in the logbook. Just good for resale, as most likely in the future ill try to get a DC5R. (not for a couple of years though)

Cheers.

[Neesmo31]

Yeah but for what they are they are a great car.

[Chi]

You will be dissapointed with DC5R, unless you mod it a fair bit more compared to dc2r

[45SET]

good luck keeping it to zorst... soon enought you'll realise that its "nust as fast as when you first bought it" and "if I change the intake (for the 3rd time) i should be able to sqeeze an extra 3kw out of it... and make Vtec louder at the same time" :p

good to see your enjoying your new car... have fun

[shebangs]

Get Injen intake and Buddy Club Spec 2. That's VTEC.

[Neesmo31]

Yeah im going buddy club catback and a j's racing intake - the big whale shlong carbon type.

[Tu88y]

should go for a AEM or Injen intake system

after that get a nice set of headers 4-1 JDM or any other that u can afford

and once u got all that get a ECU and tune it for more power

[xtercii]

and what ever the exhaust u get u don't wanna get the spec 2 one, it's ugliest sounding thing you would ever hear...

[xntrik]

You made the right choice.

[mku01]

another queenslander with dc2r.. where abouts in qld are you from anyway? and welcome

[aaronng]

Welcome! Many people don't realise why we drive small-engined Hondas until they drive one themselves!

Also, I say keep the DC2R. It's very nice and the DC5R is not really a big upgrade (if an upgrade at all! :)).

[T-onedc2]

Welcome aboard! As much as some say "it's just a Honda" you'll realise that after owning a good one the way you critique other vehicles will change :p

[tectalk]

all i got to say is welcome the vtec world :)

[z3lda]

The ITR is bloody fast

not really.
