I picked up the replacement for the hybrid yesterday. Was a round trip of about 500 miles but well, well worth it. The pics are from the for sale advert of it, will get some of my own up asap. Spec is:

1996 Integra Type R (Jap Import)
68,000 miles
Standard apart from mugen twinloop exhaust and some other manifold (can't remember what make :lol: ), induction kit and HIDs (will be replacing them with a set of my own shortly though as the ones on there aren't great)

It was brought into the country late 2007 and I have been really impressed by the way it drives - feel so much more solid than the clio. Sitting at 1**+ mph (metres per hour, obviously) in the teg feels much steadier than about 70 in the clio tbh and the handling is also rather impressive.

Anyway, some pics:

What are the performance differences to the JDM vs UK?

Prefer the UKDM's but a DC2 is a lovely car regardless - good upgrade in many ways from a Clio imo 8)
