Just wanted to say I have just bought a new shape Integra Type R, from Litchfields, should be here late May.

Im a really happy bunny, and after an absoloute terrible weeks, things have turned round.

Yippeeee

After test driving many other Hot Hatches and performance cars, nothing came close to my old steed, for the money I have or had , drove the DC5 twice for reasonably long test drives, and was well impressed.

Will be going to the Nurburgring in June to test out it's ability along with a few Track days.

Just got to put up with walking to work for another 10 weeks.

Type r

Really interested in one of these. Had a civic type r for 6 months and loved its performance but not the looks. How does the DC5 compare in the driving stakes?

Also do litchfield have DC5's regularly in stock to test drive?
Finally (phew) what kind of warranty do you get?
Cheers

Iain used have 1 in stock, but sold it. Warrenders always have one in stock.

As for the drive, far superior in every way, the ITR DC2, was awesome, but the DC5 is better, in every way except engine noise.

the new specs are alot more appealing 2.0 litre engine 220bhp @ 8000rpm and a new quarter mile time of 14.3, at least its better than the old one and also looks alot more betta than the old one too.

I will post up some piccies early next week.

I bought the full spec, but I have got an exhaust on it already, and I have ordered Mugen CAI, Manifold, brake lines, and upgraded pads.

The Racing spec worked out at the same price in the end.
