Thanks guys :)
I will get better pictures up when I learn how to use my camera jag.
Got loads of plans.
It's going to a Honda specialist asap for a full checkover, anything needing replaced done and underseal.
Then a full service
Just bought a pioneer double din with sat nav and Bluetooth
Get another set of mats to protect the red ones in it.
Got a 5.46 final drive sitting
Want mugen front and rear lips
Going to order a j's racing 60r
Buy a arc intake when I get more money.
Full detail when I have time. Machine polish maybe even a wet sand.
That's about it for now. Don't want to do too much too soon. Don't want to get bored of it.

nice plans mate!

i look forward to seeing your progress!

i remeber my friend taking me for a spin in his dc5 around some twistie b.roads (the woodhead pass near sheffield)!

to say his car was standard apart from some tein coilover's...............holy $hit dc5's have some grip on the twisty stuff!

even from factory they handle unbeleiveably well and there quick cars and lighter than most people would think! :cooldude:

Little update. The car came with no headunit because the seller removed it before he sold it. Wasnt too bothered as it was a single din and i wanted a nice double din. So ordered one of these.

Poineer f900bt double din touch touch with sat nav and bluetooth.

Will get it fitted as soon as its so boring driving without any music lol.



Also have a Mfacotry final drive sitting ready to go on. 5.46 ratio. Should make a good difference



Ordered one of these badboys from touge distribution. J's Racing 60r
Image


Cant wait to recieve it



Car is booked into honda for the start of next week for a check over and full service.

Then off to a honda spealist for a another check over and underseal.

Also will be stealing my brothers oem airbox with spoon drop in filter and sfs hose once he recieves his Arc intake.

Only for a short time till i save more money for my very own Arc intake. Just want to get the aem off as soon as i can.

Dont like the open cone filter intakes.



Thats all for now. Thanks for viewing. Comments welcome

its loud in a good way mate.. :twisted:

yes there are loud, but as you only got a back box you could quieten it down with a larger silencer on the b pipe. I think mine is somewhere between 110-120 db so not track friendly, they are quieter than a bc spec 2 though, flip me there so uber loud :shock:

They sound awesome though mate, like a proper race can, ive got the full cat back system, full titanium, the whole system was easily lighter than just the b pipe alone from the mugen twin loop i had on before :cool:
