    2004 EP 3 exhaust.

    EP3 Exhaust, Hi. Sorry I should have put EP 3 Type R. Got some info that the pipe diameter might be different. Honda UK have them in stock but cannot confirm the two fit each car. Failing that I have to wait six to eight weeks for one for me DC5. Regards.

    Ep3 Scraping/grinding when setting off in first gear or releasing clutch off bite

    Hi. It comes and goes so I'm hoping it's not to serious. I'm first UK owner and it did it when I picked it up in Feb 2010. The gear box works well even when cold so I'm disinclined to pull it out. If ever I have to have the box refurbished I'll give an update on what was found out. Regards...

    Ep3 Scraping/grinding when setting off in first gear or releasing clutch off bite

    Hi all. The noise in the first video is typical of what I'm getting. It comes on just at the biting point. The sound in the second video sounds to be a lot more serious but could be from the same cause. Regards. Granty.

    Blue is thee colour.

    Hi. Twenty five thousand eight hundred people cannot be wrong. Blue is the top car colour, followed by silver then black. Poo beige came bottom. (Pun). As in the words of the song, "blue is the colour of my true loves eyes", and the best Tegs. Lol. Regards. Granty. :D

    FN2 FN 2 Scarborough.

    Hi all. Yesterday I followed a Milano FN 2 into Scarborough. On the rear right it had the Type R logo. Below that it had an RR logo but not the Mugen one above it. It had the standard back end with the triangular exhaust ports. Does anyone have any knowledge of this car. Intrigued. Regards...

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Millers Nanodrive and Shell V Power Nitro.

    Hi all. The above within the last couple of days. Wow. And the difference is noticeable. The engine is quieter, seems to start easier and when you put your toe down it seems to take off and appears to want go on and on forever. Expensive. But well worthwhile. Regards. Granty.:D

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Car mount for Nexus 7.

    Hi. Mount arrived and tried. Works a treat and its not to obstructive with the Nexus 4. Easy to get to the heater controls and especially when in landscape. I've got a remote for the radio, so that's solved a minor problem. Regards and thanks. Granty.

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Car mount for Nexus 7.

    Hi. Looked at this one but could'nt find a demo video with it shown fitted to the rounded vents, similar to the DC5 vents. It would have clamped on down by the gear stick, but this would have been to low, especially when using the Nexus as a sat nav. Thanks and regards. Granty.

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Car mount for Nexus 7.

    Hi. It has some little feet that rest on the dashboard. I agree, it would need to a firm. I've seen one now that fastens into the CD slot. Its very similar to the vent fitting. Regards. Granty. From Granty's Nexus 7.

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Car mount for Nexus 7.

    I'm trying to find a suitable mount for the above. I'm not keen on windscreen mounts. I've tried suction things and mats and they don't work well. I've seen a Provent mount on EBay that slots into an air vent similar to those on a DC5. Has anyone tried the above with success. Feedback would be...

    New wheels arriving friday.

    Hi all. They're on finally. I had to contact Rimstyle as the centres were ten holes, five bigger ones and five smaller and I was trying to line the five bigger ones up with the studs on the hubs. After speaking to them and rotating the wheel , they dropped into place. It was the first time i...

    New wheels arriving friday.

    Hi All. Finally got the wheels I wanted after after a bit of a nightmare search. There was plenty of wheels to look at but the style I wanted was either out of stock, the wrong colour or the 17x8s, which I was a bit scared of for me DC5, probably wrongly so. Got the following from Rimstyle and...

    DC2 DB8 DC5 Recomended DC5 Breakers.

    Hi. Gutted for you mate. Keep trying the search engines, hopefully something will come up. Have you tried Dave at Steels Honda, Hereford I've heard he is extremely helpful. I take it the comments Paragraphs FTW don't refer to a breakers yard then. Good luck. Granty.

    Hi. After a while I was hoping to shout out loud "Power to the wrinklies" I suppose I still can but its gonna fall on deaf wrinkley ears. Seems there's not many of us in DC5s. Oh, what are they missing out on? I should say. Still Im surrounded by young people which is not a bad thing. I...
