Hi guys just wanting to know i went to look at a dc5r yesterday and i turned on the car for a while to listen to the engine and etc...and relise the exhaust has water coming out of it what does that mean? is that normal? the aircon was on for abit but then was turned off. I;ve never seen it on my civic even with my air con on. Is it normal?
 
Ohhh oki cool thanks guys.

Just another small thing im also tossing between 2 cars the dc2 and dc5 what you guys prefer???

Just want to hear some advise and experiences.

Cheers.
 
to be honest mate i LOVE how raw the DC2 is but at the same time i also LOVE how the DC5 looks it would be a hard decission for me too! ive never driven either but a lad i knew had a dc5 and loved it but other than that i cant comment, but im sure which ever one you choose will be a good choice :) good luck
 
My bro has a dc2 and mate just bought a dc5 few days ago, driven both. Handling wise dc2 feels better, but like the torque of the dc5. If i had the money, buy a dc5, such a nice lookin car!!
 
What are the hp on the dc2 and dc5 over at your area? Mine here is kinda slow the dc5. DC5R here comes in 197hp (147kw) ~1160kg, while the dc2r 189hp (141kw) ~1090kg weight and only slightly more torque. dc2 stock faster here tho. Do you guys get the 220hp dc5 over there???
 
Id alwasy thought that the dc5 was a better handling car???

ohh btw the new car has a jdm engine on it but im not too sure how many kms on it. The current owner doesnt know too he just put it in? I heard you can do a compression test to see if the engine is healthy or not right does this mean by the engine compression thing i always see as in 11.1:1 (thats the jdm engine compression) kinda thing? So if it doesnt match then its not healthy some one correct me please.
