"Red AUS spec integra type R 2000 with Jap spec front

Just letting you know when i brought this car it came completely STOCK DC2R
spent quite a lot money

Note there isn't Type R decal on it due to been respray 2 years ago BUT don't worry i have the decal for you to stick back on"

Let us compare the typing patterns of these two. Both of them speak in very broken English. Neither of them use periods at the ends of their sentences. Both of them live in the Sydney area and drive JDM DC2Rs. Well, actually, Forbiddenoob claims JDM, whereas the Carsales post admits that it's simply a JDM front swap (obviously due to the undisclosed front-ender). So it's pretty bloody obvious that he's trying to flog his own car.

Maybe if it wasn't a crashed, faded, modified, overpriced piece of shit, I wouldn't mind the dishonesty so much.

I paid like 230 for a mobile mechanic to come and inspect a car. wasnt worth it imo.

He just took it for a test drive and jacked it up. Didnt do a compression test.
All you got to look for if you are really noob is something out of place. you have to know what certain components look like e/g a coilover.
Jack the car up and have a look around. Pay particular attention to the engine bay. Look for STAINS. Most of the time someone could of done a messy home job fluid change. Which is ok. What is most important is detecting an oil leak. Oil leak=low oil pressure=engine failure.

Check the exhaust for excessive smoke. White or blue smoke is BAD. A single puff of it is ok but anything over 1 sec means the head gasket needa to be replaced or the piston rings are wearing.

While driving the car does it crunch?
If it does crunch in a couple gears it means the clutch needs to be bled.
Anything out of that is a BIGGER problem eg syncro etc.

while checking all wheels and suspension give the components a shake and tug. One evo I had a look at needed the rear left wheel bearing replaced as there was alot of play.

At the end of the day it is a USED car. you are going to have to compromise.
If you want brand spanking new no problems. Then you need to buy brand spanking new.

I crashed my ek a while ago while looking at a DC5R. Don't get it they are evil cars

hahaha everytime i look at this "Maybe if it wasn't a crashed, faded, modified, overpriced piece of shit, I wouldn't mind the dishonesty so much." it kills me, so much haterid.

yeh i know the basics like crunching of gearbox smoke blowing and oil leaking but besides that im utterly useless lol
