exhaust - it should either be quiet or be loud. the stock one can be quiet and then it can be annoyingly loud in the background when you're trying to cruise.
revs - car revs a bit high(well i think so), im the type of driver who likes to keep my revs under 3k's.

Oh mannn... i wish i had a 6-speed. With a DC2R box ur revving at like 3.5k sittin on 110... i dont have a very loud exhaust, but even then i get a headache after 10 minutes at that speed in 5th. Even at 80 its revvin a tad high if u gotta sit on that speed for a while. 6-speed ftw.

revs - Honda = VTEC/i-VTEC = 8,000rpm+ redline. If you don't like high revs, errr, find something else.

wish i could but im a povo now. spent all my money on the car so i have to savour ever drop of petrol put into the car. i didnt hit vtec for bout 1 week and hit it once today... it felt so good... :honda::honda::honda:

98 DC2 Vti-r

Dislikes:
Mods cost a lot of money
Oil Filter is in a horrible spot (need tiny hands to get out)
Every commodore wants to race (most p plater)
Getting chased by commodore who got beaten
Not enough room for full size spare, reduced to crappy space saver

Likes:
Beats all N/A 4 cylinders, and most N/A 6 cylinders off lights
Not many in Townsville (I have seen 5 including mine, the other 4 are gsi)
Good on Fuel (Around town 450 on 98 350 on 95, Highway 600 on 98 400 on 95)
Feels good when you hit VTEC
Its small so i dont have to drive people around or be the dd

Don't know what you guys are compling about the size and getting in and out, im 6ft 4" and i don't have a problem

Try that with recaros and not damaging the bolsters!

dc5 engine mounts

Dislikes:
- Front wheel drive
- Aftermarket mods are expensive for little gains
- Worrying about passengers sitting on my recaros

Likes:
- Looks sexy from all angles
- VTEC!!
- fuel consumption is reasonable (450kms to 500kms per week)
- Recaros

If that's the way you drive, then I'll be 1st in line to buy it when you decide to trade up. If you always shift <3000rpm, your engine (as long as its serviced well) must be in mint condition.

If you dislike this about your car, then why did u get a DC5? Why didn't u get an S2K or S15, or a WRX if AWD is your thing.

S2k:
- Only a 2 seater
- Not enough room in the boot

S15:
- Looks a Little outdated
- Not as sexy
- Less reliable than a Honda
- Too common

WRX:
- Didn't want a 4 dour
- Too common

Integras less common than a WRX?? You've clearly never been through cabramatta.. 62% of integras ever prodiced reside in the driveways in south western sydney.
