I refuse to believe they had a brand-new-never-before-seen-special-edition ball joint commissioned specially, just so Integra owners could go that bit faster round corners than civic owners. On the other hand, I massively respect the lengths Honda goes to for performance... just so Integra...

I think I'll just scrap the car. :p my plan A is to get AREA motorsport to fit BC RCA's. I'm assuming they are out at the Civic Cup this weekend hence not answering the phone. While I have done this sort of work myself on previous cars I'm just so full of CBA these days. I have Coilovers but am...

Mine failed mot today for excessive play in nearside balljoint. The garage doing the mot are quoting over 500 spacebucks (and 3 week leadtime) just for a replacement knuckle with the included balljoint... excluding labour. Tried to call AREA but no one's answering. Someone really needs to...

My neighbour laughs at how slowly i drive...

um, so did Freya actually do this video? or did it become the one about her i've already seen?

85000ISH 55reg I used to be doing 20k a year commuting between this and my EG. but I changed jobs to really close to home in Jan this year so I've only done about 2k in the teg and EG hasn't moved this year. So the 'high' mileage for age of this type of car should now gradually start to become...

I tried mine on the original link and it still said mine is fine. So hopefully, that old link is still valid...and none of us need worry.

I got muteki sr35s from eightspeed and fitted them at the weekend. I'm not 100% in love with them but the quality looks good. We'll see how they last. Tink i would've preferred black uns.

My first car was an EC8 (1.3 EF shape), loved it to bits. Always hankered for an SiR version. Was never gonna happen at that age, not enough money!

I bought mine from american ebay for almost exactly half what the most recent one went for on uk ebay at teh time. Including shipping and taxes.

Okay, one more time, with feeling... The integra dc5, when compared to normal modern mundane family cars, is not quiet or comfortable. The integra dc5, when compared, by me, to all my previous cars, is quiet and comfortable, in my opinion. This simply cannot be disputed. Funnily enough, I...

I'm not going to argue, I think we've laboured this non-point long enough... most recently: My 04 S2000 had probably slightly more comfortable ride, but much noisier. My 95 EG civic has a rougher ride and is noisier, with oem dc2 suspension conversion and 195/50/15 tyres. The interior rattles...

No Wayyyyyy My missus works at Sywell, I was there on Saturday night for the Blades Ball. No DC5's but they did have an Aston one77! Funnily enough I was asking her last month wether there'd be any chance I could 'borrow' the runway! :D She said it's not up to them (2excel aviation), but the...

Haha, exactly what REspirit and I said! Everything is relative and SOME people will think it's raw. But to ME compared to all the cars I'VE ever owned it is not! You should try going back to a 20 year old Civic rust bucket that the whole interior rattles over every bump and see how it compares...

In fairness, my split over the last year was more like 6-7k in the DC5 and 13-14k in the EG4. But If the Civic is off the road for a year, I wouldn't hesitate to put 20k on the DC5 just because it is such a nice car to drive. So quiet and comfortable, it eats up the miles ;) (Everything is...
