Looks the goods. Unfortunately de-barging is not an option for me. Both badges are 'plugged' into the body.
Yup, might actually keep to 15's if I can find them. As for tyres, I've heard good things about Toyo's. Personally I'm going to go for the RE001's.
go t1r, re001 is overated
What's the price difference?
Soz for going OT, but its better than opening another thread. I found a Type R
http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/...d=12BB64C7D631
Guy said will do for 12.5k, only because it doesnt come with a RWC, apparently NSW cars dont need Roadworthy to get Regoed? he said its pretty much 100% Roadworthy would just need to jack up the coilovers, what yous think. Also are Type R's more expensive for insurance, like by much?
Nice! I remember this car from when I was searching for my Integra...
Like I mentioned before man, any seller who is confidant in their car will get a RWC, no matter if it's needed or not. Honestly, it's only $75. If he's so tight, say you'll give him $12,575 then. That way you know for certain that it will pass roadworthy and the guy isn't just trying to pass on problems.
Some people will probably think I'm abit OTT about little stuff like that, but come on man you have to agree with me, if someone says they're car is '90%' certain to pass road worthy they'll get off their arse and do it. Unless he's an un-motivated seller and wont do shit.
As for the car itself, just skimming across the pics it looks good. But any car can look good in pictures. You dont know when they were taken, could be 10 year old pictures already. Just go look at it. Hell, pay for petrol and I'll drive you down there myself to have a look at it!
Any questions you have about a certain car can only be answered by going and looking at it. For all we know, it could be an absolute gem!
I thought Roadworthys were around $500?
LOL who told you that???Quote:

If the seller is confident in the car they will get the RWC because they know that it will be cheap. Someone who isn't keen on gettig RWC for you knows that the car has problems that will have to be fixed ie: costing THEM money.
He said hes 99% it will pass, apart from the Ride Height, in which it has coilovers so can just wind them up, maybe he thinks thats to hard to do?
vvvtec, i'm gonna be looking to sell my unichip piggyback ecu once i get a hondata standalone ecu (got to wait on my boss to see if he can get me a decent one from j-land) u interesed?
Thanks man! I'll probably be going Hondata myselfQuote:

For all the people who wonder/are skeptical about how loud/powerful the Injen Cold air intake sounds, this is for you... Also for the guys who drive DC2's, watch this. This shows you the difference between the 'snail' stock VTi-R Intake Manifold and the Skunk2 manifold. MASSIVE difference in both response, power and sound (1.22 will tell you everything) Take a look :) EVERYTHING (apart from manifold and Intake) is 100% stock.

(For those wondering, NO, I was not speeding, 100km/h limit. Also I do not thrash my car, this is me 'giving it some'... notice my granny shifting and double-clutching lol. Thanks goes to Jeremy (aka 'jeremydawg' for his filming haha)
Haha watching this video again... Bloody hell Qld's insects are loud ;) Sorry for the sound quality, the sunroof + both windows were open. It was so hot today.
Comparring to this, nothing beats a cold winters-night blast...
