Hi everyone,
I've been on the forum for a little while now and I haven't really had the chance to say hi. Anyways moving on, ive always wanted a DC5, a car that looks good and all in proportion with some power. I looked for ages for the right one and finally picked up it up last summer 2017. Its most likely an ex forum member on here as the car was pretty much mint. Since then I've done a few bits to it....
I took it to my local bodyshop for little touch ups here and there and got the wheel arches treated as i know they are probe for rust.
Next I had the car professionally valetered inside and outside, the red recaros were near on black but have come back really nice to the original red.
Then I concentrated on doing my engine bay. I got the rocker cover resprayed white to match the colour of the car (I know its hard to keep clean) I bought some nice carbon fibre goodies from Kode performance, spark plug cover and inlet manifold cover. Got some red dress up bolts from MJC Automotive to get rid of the rusty ones also with a red battery clamp. I'm currently saving up for the Tegiwa carbon airbox.
I've ordered some new rear led lights, custom made in Japan by Rize Japan (still awaiting customs clearance) will grab some photos with them on as soon as I get them.
Finally I ordered a carbon fibre lip from TypeRkits which I'm awaiting to arrive. Will also get photos with it on.
I want to give it a remap and get a better stereo system for the future.
Please find some pictures attached:
