Yes a DC5 would even better to have on the drive than the civic! Also, I've got nothing to be angry about, the corolla is a nice car but I love my civic

A DC5 is a stunning car and something you don't see everywhere

To be fair I don't own either but have in the past owend 2 civics and a very good mate had a corolla, they are both good cars with good engines but it is true to say there are less modified parts for the toyota.

21-12-2018, 03:44 PM #14if I had to buy a wrong wheel drive car, it would be a DC5 integra. My best mate drives a red one. Every time I see it, I'm instantly jealous.
I like them too, but think they are very over priced.
Very tempted by a corolla t sport as they are great value for money! But I prefer bigger cars, and think my next car will be big.
I didn't realise the t sport was as quick as a type r, they are so much cheaper to insure too! Bargin!
There is a championship white DC5 on my street, very jealous and my missis wants one as her next car.

A uk ep3 are extremely restricted compared to the jdm ep3. As the dc5 is a jdm only production they are alot naughty =) altho the dc2 is a tad heavier, its the way the jdm models are mapped from stock, theres a few different parts in the head, i think the blocks are very much the same

Japan has easy access higher Oct. fuel to cope with a more aggressive map this may explain why the cars are tuned differently.
