    Ah I know, I saw it myself, there was a Gold EK9(I think) at the time that I could never catch....straights or not:eek:


    I prefer the skyline though, I used two suspension set ups, one for grip driving, then a few tweaks in the pits later, and it was back out for some endless sliding fun....you can't do that it a civic/teg:P

    On the evidence of the racing today, DC2's can get very, very sideways....:eek::pac:

    Lift off oversteer is never as much fun as power over drifting with linked corners though:D

    Honda fanboyism at its finest! They arent some out of this world cars, Id take a tuned S14 over a tuned Civic any day of the week.

    Sure I drive a Golf most of the time........I've only ever owned one Honda!

    I'd take the S14 as a road car all day long but as a track car........your crazy

    May have a new car in the morn...the one person on here who knows what's up better not say anything or they're banned!

    I managed to hide the fact i was buying an e30 for 3 WHOLE MONTHS! I caved though about a week before i got it and only told two of the lads. Then half an hour after i got it one of the belts snapped and i had to wait for another two days until i could tell people. How i didnt burst ill never know!

    Its Simple:

    RWD and larger displacement engine which will give you more room for tuning.

    Absolutely, which is why it would be a better road car....

    How many S14's have you seen lined up on that track for ITCC or Time Attack....and then compare that to the amount of Honda's.

    Faster than the Polo?? Does the fact that it doesn't have power steering not put you off? I found it quite tough at times!

    Donuts are too easy. Once you can turn your steering wheel and press the accelerator you can do them :D

    Your E30 is too tidy for that though....buy a tatty 320 and weld the diff for lessons:P

    Indeed, the missus had the exact same 98 version of your Aunts and Fnck me it was tough to steer. My first set of wheels was a 95 micra classic and the steering was a lot lighter in it IIRC for some reason.

    Alan, is this some kind of special sleeper you've bought to compensate not going for a T Sport?? Theres a maxima engine in it right??

    You eyes will be sore looking a the Fuel and Temp gauge in that little baby... they are MASSIVE in the absence of a rev Counter;)

    Jokin aside though, only for the OH micra over the two bad winters we would have got nowhere. Loved loved loved tootin' round in second gear over hills and dales passing out passats and a4's slip sliding towards the hedge.
