Yeah s14a's are awsome, they look great, they go great, they are great. But so do dc2r's!
You can find a high kms Type R no problems for low 20's, and your s14 can be sold at around 20 i rekn.
Even though you might be paying extra to swap to the dc2r, The insurance and maintanence/fuel costs of a NA car that you are saving, would probly even out out in the end!
Anywayz Good luck mate.
just ask yourself a question: grip or drift?
i sold my s14a for a dc2r, no regret except for the extra cash............
You will need perhaps 5k adjustment.:D
Go for it, its worth it thats for sure
Thanks guys! I will definitely get a DC2R as soon as i have the cash adjustment! I was looking at a second hand DC2R yestersday (currently selling at National Car Connection on Parramatta Rd for $22 900) Looks all good......actually, it looks so hot, but i spotted damage on panel, which means accident before. It has around 102000 on the clock (which is reasonably for Aus average yearly mileage). However, my girl doesn't want me to change my S14a! She reckon i should keep it till i have the cash adjustment to get a better condition Type R!
Man.......that DC2R is so tempting! But........
Also, i was thinking about FTO GPvR Aero series.....but in the end, i still can't fight the temptation of a Type R!
Therefore, wait for me guys! I will get there ASAP with you all!
Don't even step ova to FTO. As for ur gf wanting to keep s14. Thats so typical. All chicks love s14, its like such a chicks car. Type R all the way bro. You know u wanna. U can hear it calling ur name.
if i wasn't into Honda's, i'd definately go the S14a
with a few grand put into it, can get that thing to about 300 horsies at the wheels, and pull 12's
also, fatten up the front and rear sway bars, front strut brace, and lower the bitch, and the handling will be sweet
yeh i'd like to say that the type r's are definatly newer cars, and therefore would cost more, released in the aus market late 98 or start of 99?? somewhere around there anyway.... might want to check that the type r is in good condition as welll... one that's been redlined everyday i wouldn't look at buying :P
S14 sounds so tempting.............. i've never had a rwd car that can bag it up :P
but i still love my Integra :):):)
I decided to keep my R cos i love it so much... but i forgot to pull the ad off carsales and accoridng to Murphy's Law this is how it goes... for two months i got no calls... then i decide to keep it and get a flood of calls.
Now i have a girl who wants to pay me top dollar for my R :( i am so confused. It's my pride and joy... sorry to hijack...
For those of you who have seen it, you know how clean it is... hence my dilemma... i have owned since day zero.
Once you get yourself a good R lovesil, you will face the same dilemma as me :)
keep it man...
you know you wont find a better ride :)
(maybe 2005 JDM DC5R but thats another kettle of fish)
i don't think anyone will do a straight swap with s14 and dc2r... because dc2r is limited edition its value is more than a s14.
also, all the chicks i know like my dc2r over my friend's s14... they kno wnothing about the car's capabilities, handling, speed... they just like the look of it... and the sound and seats of course :D
hahaha exactly... i dunno, not a big fan of s14's... dont really like the look of them.... i like the s13's and s15's but the s14 aint my cup of tea...Quote:
