My old car and the new one

(1/5) > >>

Nickyboy:
Had it for 4 days, loving having power from so low in the revs  :happy2:

Not as good feedback on the bends as the Civic but it's a small price to pay for all the pro's vs cons.

Standard apart from a GIAC remap but I think the DV is shagged as it doesn't boost well all the time in 300bhp mode so picking up a revision D tomorrow.

My Alpine IDA x305 will be transplanted next week when the parts arrive.

Paid £15k for the car, 07 plate, it has armrest and iPod as the only extras besides the paint. 27800 miles.

Plan to keep it standard.


For now.

WhiteGTI:
Very nice CTR! My friend had one and I drove it all the time, but found the mid-corner feel to be pretty numb to be honest...

That said, I'd get a CTR in a heartbeat if i wanted another hot hatch!

MAT ED30:
a quick map and a few little tweeks to the chassis and it good bye type r  :driver: trust me i have owned a few of those type r civics  :laugh: and worked for Honda too  :smiley:

Top Cat:
Very nice.  :pomppomp:

I think your first port of call though is getting the springs fixed in your house  :grin:

Nickyboy:
For the first few days I was trying to VTEC everywhere, changing down to rev from 6K which is obviously pointless in the Golf.

And tonight, I drove the Civic for the first time in about a week, and I was driving it like the golf, flooring it from 2K RPM and moaning about the lack of torque  :signLOL:

Springs in the house? Yeah I spent alot of time in the kitchen which is on the right hand side  :signLOL:
