Can someone measure the hole for the double din stereo for me?
I've now moved onto a FD2 and got a double din headunit for Xmas. The surround doesn't fit and know you can get the kit for the RSX to cut and fit. But just want to make sure the DC5 and FD2 have the same size space.
Thanks in advance
Anyone have their dog in the boot of their DC5? I had on years ago and remember the boot being big but don't know if the slope of the rear would make it small for our Doberman.
Basically I have a estate now but love cars and driving to much and really want another DC5
Anyone ever done this? Obvioulsy would look wrong with blue carpet and door cards.
If it had black originally I was wondering how it would look.
I'm tempted to get blue but have a nearly new set of red Recaro Speeds I don't want to get rid of...
Pics would be great 8)
On way back from Kent yesterday got stuck in a bit of traffic.
Whilst moving at about 30mph the car infront slammed on his/her brakes so i went to do the same. but...
As I braked there was a very strange knocking sound and i could feel it in the pedal. Must of had only about 30% braking power...
As quoted by a FD2 member...
"oh btw, if anyone is here from itr-dc5, can you get admin to change the tag line to "the Second fastest FF car in the world"
Thanks"

Sure this has been covered but i cant find it anywhere.
Looking to change from my 2001 DC5 to a 2005/06 (nearly went to FD2 but talked myself out of it)
Anyway, what mods cannot be transfered between the pre and facelift?
As far as i know its just suspension mods inc struts, but just checking...
After reading about using your inside taillights as fogs (and gettin sick of telling people why i only have one reverse light) I thought i'd sort mine out.
These instruction are for if your using the right hand side reverse as the fog. Bit of common sense will allow you to use them another way...
I got a complete set of brake discs from Paul G, they are OEM ones with a Groove cut into them. I finally got around to fitting them Saturday.
Also a set of OEM pads for the rear and Mintex 1144 pads (recomended by Paul) for the front, and some Goodridge SS hoses (which decided to split, will...

Looking for a carbon bonnet, like the Buddyclub but wanna try something different.
What ya think of this? cant make my mind up so thought i'd see what you lot think?
Would buying a DC5 with high mileage put you off?
Mines a 2001 and just gone over 70,000, im worried i'd struggle to sell a few years down the line. Its well looked after but i have no proof of servicing as its done by myself and mechanic mate :?
remember seeing some had a CW Teg with carbon bonnet and they'd sprayed the bonnet whilst following the lines of the grill, so the sides of the bonnet was CW and the middle remained Carbon.
Tryed different types of search but cant find it.
Anyone know who's car it was?
Cheers
