Hi, I've just imported my JDM DC5R from Ireland and picked it up from Melbourne customs today. The car has largely been in storage since March.
They wankered my bonnet, which I can't close now! Not impressed. But the more pressing issue is when the car's idling it moves up and down between 1 - 2.5k RPMs. I didn't want to vtec it but I suspect there is a lack of power when it's moving. No engine light on.
The oil level is OK but definitely needs a change at this stage. I'm going to open the Airbox and check the hoses for cracks, stoppages etc. Failing that, do you guys have any other recommendations?
I also need to find a good local mechanic. I'm in the northcote area of Melbourne. Any recommendations? Someone who's sees modified cars a lot, preferably!
