Anyway bit about my cars/Hondas, admittedly ive never owned a lude although I do like the 4G and would like to own one at some point, however I have had 10-12 ATRs (lost count
) Most of which ended up split for parts, also 2 JDM 96 DC2s, one sold, one I still have as a rebuild project, an S2000 and a H22A7 swapped JDM 98 DC2 (last 3 are my current cars) So a bit about the one of most interest H22 DC2. The engine started off in an ATR which had previously been built by Rich at PA to a very nice spec, making around 280bhp NA! Was an awesome car but having bought it like that it didn't feel much like my own even after a few changes. So I decided it was time to make my ultimate Honda and swap the engine into a very tidy 98 DC2 which I bought the year before (from Dino on here).
