Thanks a lot for the comments guys!

Yeah it's just UKDM ITR's that have it there

I haven't really done much to the car recently, just taken it through a yearly MOT we have to do in the UK.

I also went for a photo shoot a while back and got this picture!

Hey guys,

Haven't updated this in a while so thought I would put up the progress so far.

I've changed the UKDM steering wheel for a momo one, so much better!

(Sorry for the bad pictures!)

Apart from that I have just been enjoying the car now the weather is finally getting better

Some pictures from a drive last weekend!

Default Re: CW UK DC2 - Interior + Spoon update.

Hey Guys,

Done a few updates to the DC2 over the last few weeks so thought I would post an update

Firstly a picture I took a while back that I like and a few 6TWO1 took at the S2000 meet at Ace Cafe.

As you can see I purchased some USDM ambers from America, think it looks a lot better with them on.

Now, I recently purchased a few bits to bring the interior up to the spec that I wanted.

This included:

- New cigarette lighter as the print was damaged on mine.
- Red sticted gear gator
- JDM mats
- Spoon wide angle mirror
- Spoon rear strut brace

I also removed the Honda badge at the rear of the car and it looks a lot better!

Some pictures of the install process are below, I also fully detailed the car and re-applied some Dodo Juice wax.

Very happy with it now and the back end definitely feels a lot better with the rear brace!

Thanks for reading,

James

Default Re: CW UK DC2 - Enkei NT03's test fitted!

Hey Guys,

Thought I would update this thread and I recently purchased some 16" Enkei NT03's and took a 6 and a half hour round trip to go and pick them up.

I test fitted them today and here are the results:

Enkei NT03 by AvidJames, on Flickr

Please excuse the state of my dirty car!

I have big plans for the alloys and will be restoring them in another colour and keeping the OEM and 98 spec alloys.

I've also order some RSR semi slicks for them, along with racing lugs and spigot rings as they came with none.

What colour do you guys think I should do them? It's either champ white, enkei racing gold or a darker colour?

Cheers,

James

Cheers for the comments dude, I was running Toyo T1R's before. Not the best tyre in the world but was good while I had it! It's currently sitting on Meister R Zeta S's. They pretty much feel like stock suspension after playing around with the adjustment! I really like them

Hey mate! Nice to see a fellow UK DC2 owner on the forum, I am from just outside London. You had your DC2 long? Looks good!

Also, a quick update about the wheels. They are now on and the car is setup how I want it, they do look better in person so hope the pictures capture it ok

The tyres are unreal compared to the Toyo's, it's going to take some getting used to but really enjoying them so far.

I had the tracking done today as it was way out and pulling to the left, also painted my calipers soft silver as the gold on gold wasn't a good look.

I need a new steering gator as I noticed mine has a small tear but will replace that shortly!

Just a quick update about the car, it's now off the road and I have a little 1.0 Yaris to travel around in over winter!

I have managed to pick up a Gen2 Mugen intake from Hoho (Thanks again mate!) and started cleaning up the OEM intake and buying the bolts ect so I can install it tomorrow.

I'll let the pictures do the talking but I should have a MK1 AEM long arm intake up for sale soon!

I've ordered a replacement Mugen sticker and cleaned up the filter and housing as well

Looking forward to fitting it tomorrow!

I took the DC2 out from hibernation on Sunday and went for a drive and some pictures.

Ended up being out for 5 hours, and here are some of the pictures:

Looks good. I love the fact you put USDM parts on your car when so many people jock the UKDM parts

Remember pretty much any of us will trade you some USDM tailights for yours
