Sunday driver: Dirty DC2

[Owen92]

Sounds 100mph, looks 20mph. That's just not right and makes you seem like a typical barry boy.

 

[yeecup]

What a ridiculous chav wagon

 

[DanielJames]

Love that it's well used. Just wish you'd kept the buddyclub

I'd love to have kept it, but that thing got so much attention from the wrong sort. I was pulled twice in a month with it lol.

Plus I had that on when I was using the car every day - setting off to my girlfriends about 3 miles away and she could hear me coming!



May have to get another

 

[DanielJames]

This.

I can't think of anything worse than pulling up to a diesel jag and getting left behind, all the while sounding like a fart through a megaphone.

I know this because I've been there and done it, it's embarrassing tbh.

It's not about straight line speed with this car though, the driving experience is extraordinary.

Or are you saying you've had a DC2 and got left by a Jag? I find Insignias are the worse. I know I'm in for a battle when the CDTi is in red letters lol...

 

[DanielJames]

ridiculous

 

[Ian_182]

The car looked so much better standard.

What a shame.

 

[Advikaz]

Very nice

 

[Philip.]

I think it's alright. MUCH preferred the Buddyclub though.

 

[leeds_182]

Not feeling it.

 

[DanielJames]

What a shame.

I owned it when it was standard too, wasn't feeling it tbh. I think I've watched too much Initial D :rasp:

 

[DanielJames]

Really? I wonder what you would have made to it in person. It was utterly ridiculous, but that's what made it awesome? Hmm. Food for thought.

 

[Turkish]

Needs the US spec sideskirts and rear bumper spats to pull off that front splitter and spoiler, looks unbalanced at the moment.

I drive with an unsilenced N1 everyday, i'm sure i'd love it! LOL!

 

[The Boosh!]

Not very keen on the ironing board that you have glued onto the boot lid.

 

[DanielJames]

Oh right LOL, I'd love an N1. Next exhaust for sure.

Any vids? Thought you'd sold your EP3?!

Lmao, might give it to my mum after I've done.

Carbon fibre ironing board mum, what you've always wanted.

I only have a couple of crappy ones! Will get a good'un this week.

It stayed, and is now booked in to ABP next week
Couldn't justify getting a new car and spending more on insurance and fuel just at the moment tbh!

Nice one, what you getting done FRSU?

Keep it, new cars suck.

 

[Philip.]

Yeah dude, ABP springs and FRSU.
Might get a rear JDM arb whilst i'm there too!

 

[DanielJames]

Why not!

I need a geo doing on mine soon, not sure whether to go ABP or Grinspeed. Let me know your feedback

Don't just give it full throttle and let it spin right up. It's quite a technique to learn but you essentially need to keep the revs up in the power band, but without banging it off the limiter. It takes a bit of practice but if you can judge the amount of throttle needed (bracing your foot is the hard part so it doesn't jump off the throttle under acceleration)

If you're just going bwabwabwabwabwabwa you won't really go anywhere.

This should give you an idea of what I mean.

Spoiler

Told like a true pro. Your the guy who can drift Ken Blocks car with ease iirc?

Take an advanced driving course to pilot your 1.2?

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Lol!!!!

Was waiting for Kenny from the block thread references, hahaha!

 

[DanEdser]

Wolololololol!

Love how this thread turned out.

Not a fan of the spoiler, but at least its getting used as it should. Honda motors loved to be thrashed.

 

[BoatNonce]

True pro? Nah. Just experience from hillclimbs and sprints all over the south west for years. But I forgot, owning an AWD Golf makes you an expert on race car preparation, and that owning a 1.2 means you've never driven anything else.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Jesus christ.

 

[Philip.]

 

[matt91]

love these but that spoiler doesn't do it for me though

I like you.

Lol.

 

[Adamm.]

Ffs, McDrifting strikes again lol.

 

[DanielJames]

No worries mate, not everyone likes it

I'd ideally like a Mugen spoiler at some point.

I wasn't the one dishing out advice, rendering the middle part of that sentence irrelevant. Added to the fact it launches for me

I know a lad with a DC2, I'm still waiting for a ride but from what I've been told it is a properly quick car. DC5 is on my to own list.

 

[_Tom]

I like and its purposeful. Its better than seeing the true drivers car polished within an inch of its life.

Loved it with the rest of the carbon like so -

 

[imprezaworks]

These cars are great, not my cup of tea ref the spoiler but like you say mate each to their own. Im more impressed how you are resisting biting after some of the remarks. That looks ace imo

 

[JoeyD]

Didn't realise that you had smaller front wheels on. Looks hard as f**k in the above picture. Bring back the canards IMO.

 

[andywa]

Not sure on the spoiler but other than that I like it.

 

[Philip.]

Rear splitter/diffuser?

 

[Knuckles]

lol IBFTL

 

[Corby G]

What's with all the hate?

CS police at it again..

Smart DC2 you got there mate, ignore the haters.

 

[Corby G]

I love JDM DC2's.

That's a UKDM the jdm dc2's are the ''full headlight'' rather than the 2 circles.
