hi guys...I spend my time half month in Bangkok and half month in Kuala Lumpur. Had just found a sweet DC5 year 2004 and am going about it to import it to Bangkok. Need to know how to change the speed limiter/speedo dial to a higher one....higher is how much by the way? Any contacts for me the change in Bangkok will be great.

guys...hit a major snag....to import the car (a 2nd hand car) into bangkok is a BIG deal and problem...the deal is off. So I am currently looking at the new DC5 in Bangkok but the parallel importers are quoting moronic high prices. So currently am looking at KL and dun seem to able to find the actual importer. Seen a few new DC5 zooming past me. Any guys here can help?
lingwu,
I am afraid there wouldn't be any new ones for sale as noone is allowed to import in any new Honda sports cars into Malaysia. This is due to the import licence bring controlled by the M'sian Honda distributor. There are rumors that they are going to dismiss the right, but who know! But there are lots of second hand ones for sale now. If you need one i could find out more for you. I've also checked out the price in Bangkok, it costs a bomb to get one and parts for K20 in Bangkok is really rare and expensive.

hi kenny. thanks for helping. I am serious looking for a DC5R facelisft model (i.e. sept04 onwards). An import recon will be good. Meanwhile, after going to a few importers in Bangkok, I found one which has been importing new DC5R at RM240k only. Waiting period is 2 months for the delivery but will have to wait longer now since it is the festival period (songkran) in Thailand.
Hi lingwu... I think you can forget about getting the car from Malaysia... It will be better for you to get in Thailand... RM240K is an acceptable price... Well, if you like it... Hehe... I bought mine a 03 model at RM225K... I am in Laos now... I always drive down to bangkok... see when can we meet up... over in bangkok... after songkran will be good...
