Japanese made RE001 has the words "ADRENALINE" in caps
Australian made RE001 tyres are in upper and lower case lettering.

215/45R17 come in both Australian and Japanese made
225/45R17 are only...

i think he means on the block, not the plate.

liftoff oversteer is scary

I have Bridgestone RE001 and i like them.

I know exactly what you're going through, and I think mines worse because i've got the engine torque damper. I have put in some rubber strips and it helps reduce the noise.
I find it becomes more of...

those dark grey ep3r/civic sport rims looks good on the DC5!

after fitting on the TypeS race header your stock base model catback will not fit.

The base model's catback is shorter i think from memory, so you will need to get an extra bit welded onto your...

good choice! post pics when they are installed!

for my base auto, i had mugen sport suspension, whiteline 22mm rear sway bar, spoon rear lower tie bar, spoon strut bar front/rear, oem TypeS 26.5mm front sway bar, vision rear camber kit. Using...

i'm not sure about the accord because i've never been in one with modified suspension, but i think having a stiff chassis plus stiffer suspension makes the car feel bumpier too...just from my own...

225 on 7.5" wide rims is good
i've seen 225 on stock TypeS rims (7" wide) and they look good too, but i think it also depends on the tyre itself

i currently have 17x8 on my TypeS with +40 offset and i find this pretty good and fairly flush at the rear, but i would prefer more offset at the front. There are people who run 17x9 with a crazy...

going 17s and 18s will make the car feel more bumpy, especially with 18s
i had Mugen Sport suspension, which it replaced my original spring and shocks combo.
Just replacing springs might actually...

hey! let the man/girl enjoy his/her base auto dc5
they can still be a heap of fun with suspension mods done to it. I've had a auto dc5 before my TypeS and at times i wished i still kept it.

haha not everyones as hardcore as you rick!

he said he doesn't want kpro or k100
you only have two options, send it over there or buy a second hand ecu that's already been reflashed.
i encountered the same problem when i had my base auto,...

i've changed my gearbox oil, put on an engine torque damper and it still pops out
it's the cold that makes the gearbox do this.

eski, if you can try out someone's TypeR or TypeS for yourself and see how you like it may be the best thing to do first. I see that you're in Melbourne, and there's plenty of nice guys with DC5R and...

the Marketing Director at Honda has been made redundant...but i don't think it's because of this euro Civic Si.

seriously tho, $40k for that thing...I'd feel horrible to sell it to anyone. I'd...

and how many people turned away disappointed after finding out how much it cost?

also, people being interested in this car at the Motorshow is completely different to them actually going to the...

if you had a DC5 TypeR then i would say no to foggies, because they have standard brake cooling ducts there...but on the TypeS you're fine to put fog lights there if you want.

you can tune the k20a3 on the Hondata s100???

Ok, i'm the guy in Brisbane who had a 2002 auto dc5 and spent more than $5k on it to only realise it's not even close to a TypeR!! I sold it and bought a TypeS and did the usual mods.

I had Injen...
