Hi Guys,

Just wondering if there are any Aussie's here. I just picked up a DC5 and i'm loving it. If there are any Aussie's here i was wondering locally, what good springs are available and mufflers. Also who to contact for it and/or websites. I am ready to start modifying this beauty so all suggestion would be great[/b]

Hi there

Do you know a site where I can read up the technical specs of the Aussie model.
Heard it uses the same 'weaker' K20A2 engine found in the Euro EP3 CTR and Acura RSX Type-s. :?

At least you get a DC5 version of sorts officially, we don't but can import the JDM version, then have it converted to comply with UK regs :!:

One thing to note, is that we also only have a max Ron rate of 98, and the JDM cars do run on it with no problems, due to the knock sensor making adjustments :idea:
