Helppppppppp!!

 

Mate, nothing wrong with thE DC5.

Good cars and handle a treat. That one looks ace.

Steve

 

i wanted one when i had my EP3 but found that i could pic up an impreza for the same money.

 

That's lovely mate, I was gona get a DC5 before I got my latest Scooby but I couldn't find a good one for my budget.

 

So far I like it more than your motor now and it should be less problematic

 

Just rang him, Japanese guy I think, sounds genuine.
Rolling roaded at 240 bhp at the fly My Type R would make mince meat of it in the straights.

 

My brothers boss races one, we went to see it last year at silverstone, the thing was ballistic... Then again it did have the Mugen engine!

I've always liked them. Love the one from pistonheads Ricky, looks tasty. Should I be saving up to buy a blue type R?...

 

they are good but you need to drive the **** out of them to get full potential and by the time you have done that you have to brake

nice sporty feel but power input is to late , alex had one and it was at full revs most of the time trying to keep up with me

 

The dc5's are great its the only other car to match the scoob for fun had mine for 2 years and my wife really misses it if I had more money would by another tommorow to go with the scoob of coarse

 

Nice cars, but it's back to last years dilema - have you now got the type R were you want it, and if so do you want to start over

Nice cars though

 

I had a DC2 before the my scooby.
It was either getting the DC5, RX8 or the Impreza.
In the end the 4WD and turbo wins.
You need to spent $$$$ to get the power to match a scooby.
It's down to you mate, at the end of the day...

 

Its just a bit of an itch, that I keep thinking needs scratching! I would only keep it for a year anyway until I get what I really want, which is a Hawkeye JDM Sti.

 

I have that itch too, but it is the RS4 for me, just need to get some more pennies together, like about 3000000 pennies

 

I took one out prior to buying my scooby. Sharp little car but i could see me selling it after a year and moving to more power.

 

Rickya - I was looking at one of these, do like the DC5's - Now i've got an itch..lol..

 

same itch for me i wanted a V10, now got one
the itch has stopped

 

Great cars...... very reliable and fast on the track.....that's were it ment to be.... Could use as a everyday car as well , before the v tec it feels smooth and lazy BUT....... as u said your self and mr magooli mentioned, u'll need to rip the ***** out of it to get it to the full potential..... U'll miss that scooby rush at the begining as soon as u'll get into dc5. But u won't miss al the tech bugs that terrorize classic scoobs.... u'll get the best out of it just on the track unfortunately bud...... Otherweis Hondas type rs are great......

 

Had an oportunity to be in audi s6 v10 estate..... .........
......................... could only tell that it's a v10 only when it starts or when u really pushing it..... Otherweis no feel at all...no soul.....same as 3.0 tdi if not talking bout 0-60 times... Amazing cruiser and family estate thought.. i think i still need to grow up to zie german power & luxury.... Now japanese rawness....

Stick with the Subaru lol.

Thanks
Sam

 

Well he's comming down to Watford on Saturday anyway, so Im gona take my Type R along & maybe we can compare the two & I can get a passenger ride in his. I suppose then Il really see what differences there are?

 

What does hotlink mean, in the picture i posted above, sorry to steal the thread, will only be breifly lol.

Thanks
Sam

 

It means its not allowing people to link the url of the pic to a different site.
All you gotta is save the pic, and upload it yourself, then link it.
Or just put the url of the pic in your address bar. It'll take you to the pic then...hope this helps mate...

 

Saying all that, this looks like a blemin bargain!!!!!!!!!!:

JDM Twinscroll/Widetrack, for under £10k

 

Ricky can't make up his mind... What a shocker.

 

Thanks
Sam

 

Doesn't look like wide-track to me Ricky, not that it should bother you.

 

Ricky,

It happens to the best of us i was tempted by all manner of thing but in the end the force was too strong..
You have got a really nice type R i would just enjoy that till the JDM STI starts calling.

 

Did you have a look at

I've spotted this today, wonder what I could get breaking my car

if you buy the honda mate you will be disapointed coming from a scoob imo. i took the civic type r for a test a few years back , the sales man told me to use the power so i took him on a round trip of the twistys of harefield lol he **** his pants , i took it back told him it wasnt quick enough got back in my scoob and burbled off . he was ringing me for weeks after trying to get me to buy one and i kept telling him come out in the scoob and then you know what i mean . they sound nice , and look lovely but there is just no omph unless you spend $$$ on superchargers etc

 

if i had the cash the audi would be my choice . 1 they look mean 2. they sound mean 3. fast as a ******* with some fettleing
