W&K Did an amazing job with the new campaign for the UK. Hit your R key while watching that video for fun times.

This is turning into a good little discussion, personally I like the B series, it's shouty, raw and unrefined - feels like a bit of an animal trying to relentlessly get out from the car. Whereas the...

Hey! Congrats on the purchase, never got tired of my DC2R when I had it.

One of the single best mods I have ever experienced in a DC2R, was driving one which had Mugen rear brake pads + a new set...

Hey! Had a similar problem with my GF's little Festiva.

Solved it by parking the car in the garage under cover (it was raining) winding the windows down about 1cm, and putting one of those little...

Hi mate, good work with the conversion! - Liking the door trims with red, always makes a different atmosphere.

With the rear bumper, if it's OEM Honda, it has marks on the inside of the bumper...

Full respray quoted on my EK Civic about 4 months ago, $6500 - that includes everything - some welding, some touching up, some dings, some scratches etc. exceptions: getting the motor taken out...

Your twin supercharger work is bang on for that setup - 4wd works it's butt off the best when theres power across the board - and given that you put some heavy duty gear in the diff/drivetrain to...

With the front, EK9 will fit directly in DC2R, and vice-versa.

With the rear, its completely different - the EK9 strut bottom is a fork which fits over the LCA, the DC2R strut bottom is a big ball...

I think your right in saying that oversteer in that car is strange, I gave the keys of the DC2R to my younger brother at one stage and hung on for dear life - that car is VERY hard to make oversteer,...

Yeah using the red key is bad, car won't work after that.

Basically that red key should only ever see the light of day... through the plastic packet that it comes in!

Thats annoying, I would have thought there might be some marks for the holes.

When I was working on my EK, I got a EK9 rear lip and wondered for a little while about how I was going to get the...

Hi mate!

If there were meant to be holes drilled to accomodate the pods, you'll need to take the rear bar off and check on the inside. If there are OEM holes, they will be marked by a small circle...

Couldn't have put it better myself J!

The DC2R suspension is GREAT. I don't know why people bother with coil-overs etc.

The things that matter most are the swaybars, give those lots of...

Hi |nick|,

Yes, that is the hole for the end-link. No EK post-facelift ever came out with lower control arms with this hole missing.

lukecivic - The d-shackles should come with the sway-bar,...

Hi |nick|,

Definitely do your research for the rear of the EK. There's so many options out there. If your planning to track your car, an EK4 setup will not cut it.

If your dead-serious about...

vinnY is dead-set correct! DC2R LCA's will not fit an EK - much too short.

It's not that all the possible combinations of parts are incompatible either, theres ways to make anything work.
...

Haha, 700 - whoever got that one would be one happy chappy. EK Spoon clusters are rarer than Integra Spoon clusters. There was one on eBay last week, went for 1500 US and he was asking 1700...

Heres a pic - it's a 10mm head - 6 of these, and they came from the front lip of my DC2R. They're grey, and have 2 washers, one small one big.

Just head to any Honda dealership, they should have...

Hi!

Just went through this the other night on a 99' EK.

It's easy, just get a really small drill bit, and one that is as big as the bolt shaft you need to screw into the CTR lip.

On the...

I wish I still had my Yellow 'R!

About 2 months back, I went to inspect one owned by a guy I know who works at Dave Potter, Yellow ITR '00 - It had 11,384 K's. Even though I didn't have the money,...

Hi all!

Sorry mate, my 'R was yellow.

So, does anyone have a way of telling whether the loom is obd2a or obd2b?

I had a look around on google and called Honda, but so far it's been a bit...

Cool, well I have organised a full loom from a white 2000 Civic Type R - so how do you tell if it's obd2a or obd2b?

Cheers! Dan.

Excellent, so it's only one - so that will hook into the DC2R's computer just fine? (As i'm assuming if you use the B18C7 you use it's own personal computer (ECU) too.)

Cheers, D.

Awesome, cheers for all the replies.

Yeah, I've ordered an EK9 Type R loom, is there more than 1 loom? I mean, is there an engine loom, and an interior loom - or just one?

So the EK4 brackets...

Hi Simonnowis.

I did consider that for a while, but as I have the whole wreck, and still a fair few weeks of holidays off work next year, I figured it'd be a good chance to really get down and...
