My DC5

Yeah, it must of been hard to spot seen as it was the only black DC5 there and right next to the gorgeous black FD2 :lol:

Update

I had a go at wiring the parking sensor up and here is the result

Looks great. 8)

I do remember your car now. Only because you mentioned the FD2.
 
Just found this thread, very nice DC5 fella. You have good taste, or should I say we both do ;) Just my 2p... I reckon the "type r owners" stickers would look better in the rear quarters.

Cheers, I know what you're saying about the stickers but I like to be different or strange. :lol:

Ok smarty pants. It was easy, too easy. I waited for something to blow up but it's been ok so far!
 
Future mods

Im thinking

Wheels powder coated after the fail of re-spraying
Cusco GT Wing
DC Sports Exhaust

Just wondered if you guys could give me a heads up on prices or where to buy.
Im not a big fan of buying from places that specialise in Jap parts as i feel they ramp prices up just because the parts are JDM.

E.g A company wanted £800 for my FRSU and then down the road Grinspeed did it for £500. £300 for the JDM scene can FOAD
 
DC Sports you could probably get from TGM for about 4-notes.

Doubt you'll be able to get a Cusco rear wing without contacting an importer - There won't be many knocking round, if any, in the UK used. I'd expect the GT wing to be bucks. Like £1,000+ easily. You sure it's a GT-Wing you're wanting; it's pretty hardcore??? :)
 
I think i can get the DC sports from ABP, i'll have to ring them

I love the look of the GT wing and i would love one. Found one from America which is shipped from Japan to the UK for £330 but im not sure if there are any charges this end?
I think it would look good on a NHB DC5. I dont want the 3D one its the thinner one.
 
The part'll probably be about £300-£500; you'll get bummed for the import tax, and the delivery - shipping aero parts is nasty. As the measurements increase the total increases alarmingly. Half of these bumpers and sh!t that people pay £700-£800 notes for are only really worth £200-£250. Yeah even the JDM genuine Mugen sh!t and stuff. The rest is just shipping and taxes - if you're not buying direct from Cusco, which no one really does, you'll have to factor in profit that the company, who does source it for you, makes.

I forgot you're based up North. Yeah ABP should be able to hook you up with a DC Sports system.
 
Have you considered the Mugen style rear wing? It's similar, and likely to be available easier and cheaper, as a result.
 
Yeah man, in my experience that won't include customs or shipping - double the price and add a touch more to get an idea of what it will cost. For real.
