The biggest gains I would say is high end, the vtec is single stage and the crossover sounds very very nice. When vtec engages it pulls quite hard

(much harder than stock)

I've installed the coils, I don't really like the lip I bought so I'm probably going to try and find an ITR one as well

get a retune next. vtec engagement should be smoooth.

I guess I mis-worded that one, when vtec "kicks in" (hate saying that) its a smooth engagement, can just feel the revs/speed build much faster, there isn't a "pull" perse just a very nice increase in the powercurve but of course would be much nicer with an ecu/tune

2 Semesters!

Ive only got the rest of this year, then first semester of next year then I'm off to Griffith! haha What do you do?

And it still looks clean, your colour is easily one of the nicest colours that our DC2's came in.

Don't think these will turn out too good, but it's a start!

Edit: Pictures dont do the car any justice. Any imperfections/dirt/grime you see is just crap I've picked up while driving. There are literally no scratches on the car, it's just abit dirty and needs a good clean!

Wanna trade front bumpers? Headlights+indicators too?

**Vvvtec** · 05-10-2010 11:14 PM

Did you find the 3 hidden DC4's at Boss wrecking the other day? Can't remember what state their front bars were in or if they were even facelifted, but you should look around for one! Give the car such a nice look on the front end.
