the car, the rear tends to give you a clue if your going in to hot! feels lower and more like a race car than either Clio or civic,
just needs AP's and pro camber setup, strip it out, and you'd have fun for years. In my opinion. :thumbup: will get pics of both up asap.

ps recon there is a sub 9 min lap of the ring coming in teg.
Thanks for the info. I never saw anything about AP on the DC2 site, would this require aftermarket wheels? Will sticky rubber require a baffled sump like in the EP3?

<9mins would take some serious commitment in a DC2 with standard power. I saw the aftermath of a DC2 hitting the armco at Wippermann last month :sad: I was touching 9min laps in my Focus ST but it's running around 300bhp and even more torque.

Did a 9,15 in my Accord type R this year, and the teg would beat it I think, teg is modded a little, it was getting a little scary and we had a couple
of moments!, Andy my mate drove it while I followed driving a Noble and he had a mahoosive moment in the fast blind sections towards the end of the lap.
Our next trip is going to be April next year, 30 of us went last time.
AP's under 15's no problem, the Aerox ctr used 15" slicks with diddy AP's, and worked :twisted: .
as for a baffled sump..... good idea on any car thats going to be used on track, but you just have to keep an eye on the levels and you should be fine.

Thanks guys.

I'm ONLY going for a UK spec DC2 now..insurance for jap is TOO much compared to UK DC2.

White83..I'd love yours but my finance company has to be invoiced by a trade seller and wont deal with a private sale. I've asked them to do this with private seller but they just won't and I've have got a very good rate as I'm a repeat customer. If however you have a mate/relative that own a garage then they could invoice my finance company and then I could buy your car but otherwise its a no go which really frustrates me.

If anyone has any ideas please shout!

Cheers :-x :bad-words:

Hey guys,

some good advice here. Iv got an EP3 atm but has been my plan for a while to change to a teg, not sure which version yet, depends on how much cash i wana spend. Is it much hassle going through a company to import one? Is it alot easier just to go through a private seller?

Just got out to iraq so got 6 months to do me research and save the pounds so if any one wants to sell theres in the summer theres a buyer here lol!
