i agree about the 90's technology though, amazingly they went back further in time to the 1920''s on the next model and fitted cart horse suspension.

i heard the next civic has drum brakes all round and leaf springs.

Never driven one at all then as if you had you would know the Integra Type R had an LSD as standard. You are probably banging on about a Civic Type R as you are too keen to start typing before reading things properly. The DC2 Integra is an awesome track car straight out of the box!

Try again Tubs

Self praise is no recommendation and you know it.

Ah! That explains it - I'd heard loads of people saying things like "Oh lord, it's 'king PSlewis!" and "Have you read that latest load of guff 'king Pslewis just posted?"
