Saying that tho, the coupe is supposed to be unreliable isnt it? :boggle: Nah, the Integra type R for me, especially one of the new JDM ones! Ive got a diesel Vectra for everyday use! :thumbs: [Edited on 16-02-2005 by Stu] Good call, I would deffo take the DC5 Integra Fiats 20VT aint the most solid engine no, but alot have been badly tuned.. which leads to an early death. The horror stories about engine out cambelt changes arent as horrific as people like to make out either. The engine can be dropped slightly in the bay, and worked on with most of it still in place...

	Love the sound those Coupes make! Def rather have an Integra type R tho!
Ditch	posted on 16th Feb 05 at 14:28
	I remember that post! Went out in a collegues 20VT the other night, went really really well (running about 260bhp) but didnt like the corners AT ALL! It felt about as unstable as my old astra on the roundabouts!
Stu	posted on 16th Feb 05 at 14:28
	Is this on Gran Turismo?

	For everyone who can remember the post i sent last year..... The winner was my integra type-r!!!!!!!! when it came to corners the ITR really ate the corners...fiat coupe was good on the start by the way. my 1/4time was qiucker too...so there you go..thanks for your time :)
