hey everyone, im new to this site but been on the CTRO forum for the last 3years, before i bought the DC5 i had a civic EP3 & the differance is un real the DC5 is all round better by far!! dead chuffed with the one i bought as id been waiting for one for the last 6months & finally came across one so went to view it straight away as it had only been advertised for less than 3hours!! So me & my mate went down in his DC5 & it was in unblemished condition had all the paperwork & was a great price so i bought it & took her home & finally give it a clean (Im very OCD so it will never be dirty haha)
this was my EP3 at the end
Spec: DC5
* 2002 ‘52’ DC5 ITR
* 2.0L i-VTEC DOHC (K20)
* Championship White
* 80K FSH
* Xenon Headlights
* Red Recaro’s, Red door cards and Red Carpet
* Red Genuine Honda Type R Overmats
* Tinted rear 3 windows
* Air Con
* Brembo Brakes
* Full Stainless Steel Exhaust With Decat
* Tegiwa Carbon Fibre Airbox
* Tegiwa Engine Torque Damper
* Eibach 35mm Lowering Springs
* Skunk2 Weighted Gearknob
* Wheels Powder Coated Black
* Fully undersealed (unlike alot out there)
* Toad Cat 1 Alarm/Immobiliser
* Panasonic Single Din MP3 Player
* Uprated speakers
& now this my my DC5 After a good clean
Also the headlights was really cloudy & old looking so was reccomended to use rubbing compound & it worked a treat!!
All I used was halfrauds rubbing compound
Quick pic on the drivers side after a good compound & the passenger what it looked like before
Well chuffed with the outcome!!
Before
After
Few new pics
Been debadged
Private plate
Red wheel nuts
Two quick pics of the car after I had the interior valeted he did an amazing job!! Shampoo all the seats carpets & mats & polished & detailed all the plastics for £35 & was there for nearly 3hours!! The seats look brand new :-D
Got my new private plates to fit to hide the age
K100 TEG
Well give the car a massive clean & polish & wax so didn't get many pics as it got a bit too dark for them but got a reflection shot & a rear one. Also a pic of mine & my mates with some leeds background
i thought I would redo my calipers as they was getting faded & pinky looking, bought some calipers paint & cleaner off eBay for £20 & it has come out brilliant!! Bought some Brembo decals to go back on after they have dried :-D
