    [Bris] - K24 DC5R

    Hi all

    From Semester 2 2012, I’ll be moving to Melbourne to commence study full time. I won’t be taking the Integra with me, so it’ll be sitting in Brisbane for roughly 6 months, before I can possibly take it down. It pains me too actually:
    1: Consider selling the Integra
    2: Put it on the market

    I in no way need to sell the car, but as I won’t be using it for 6 months, then once it’s down in Melbourne I probably won’t use it much (As I’ll have use of my partners car) I thought I’d see if there is any interest in it.

    The car is only going to be posted on here. Most members in Brisbane have met me, or have seen my car.

    I’ve owned the car for over 6 years, and have done every modification that is currently done to it. I work in the city, and catch public transport to work, so the car is rarely used during the week, and only on weekends. While it isn’t used, it is garaged.

    The engine transplant was completed by myself, with the help of some friends, and I have not had any problems with it since completing it. The engine itself offers great torque, and has made the car driveable across the entire rev range.

    During this build, I’ve done plenty of research, and used the best parts (As you can see from the below list). I also have a comprehensive build thread on this forum.

    Engine:
    - ’08 K24a3
    - Hondata intake manifold gasket

    As you can see, this is a rather extensive modification list, and the car is fantastic to drive.

                Thanks guys. Honestly, I don't want to sell it, and as I'm on holidays from work at the moment, I've been driving it more then normally, and it's such a great car to drive. But I need to go through this short term pain for long term gain... and the extra money from the sale and petrol/insurance/rego would be very useful for a full time student.

                I'll be posting this up on a few other forums now. I'm going to try and get a mod plate for it next week before I move down to Melbourne.

                Thanks again for all the kind words guys.

                    Thanks Warwick. I'll try to organise a catch-up before I go.

                    I took an interested person for a driver earlier in the week, but it fell through as he couldn't obtain finance. Anyone that has driven or been driven in this car can tell you that it'll blow you away... not only in performance, but appearance and general maintenance.

                      Car is going into storage shortly (Next 2 weeks).

                      I'll be giving it a polish tomorrow, and I'll try to organise a fluid change within the next week. I'll try to get some newer pictures of the car (Hasn't changed much from the current pics), but I'll also include some interior and engine shots
