Mods are all from pre-2006 and I believe it had a rear end damage claim with shoddy repair work.

^Rough around the edges, few claims, soot covered engine bay. Someone here checked it out last year.

1999 ITR disaster. I think this "91000km" R was listed recently. Now it is a 5k mess with all kinds of issues.

It sold for $5500 USD + $275 USD buyers fee. Taxes 13% in Ontario plus let's say $500 CAD for a rented trailer and fuel from Laval.

$6950 CAD + $350 CAD + $903.50 CAD (tax) + $500 = $8703.50 CAD
Plus an out of province inspection if needed in Ontario.

This is why Quebec has such a bad reputation. JT did get his 997.2 GT3 RS in Quebec but that is on another level.

my dealer has bought a few Ex Quebec off lease BMWs from BMW Canada lease return auction..


not a big fan of their cars. theyre even worse than Ontario cars and our fellow frenchmen love to smoke in them.

VR6GTI 04-11-2018 10:06 AM

my R is my from Quebec but maybe stored inside its whole life? It seems to not have alot of rust from what i can tell. Ive taken the carpet/seats right out, front bumper, rear bumper and fenders off and inspected it all and its not to bad.
What does the seller mean by "The carproof has an independent user"?

shiesty 04-11-2018 06:31 PM

The carfax report may be clean but for Canadian cars especially, carproof reports are much more comprehensive

Will a DC5 steering work and look good in a DC2?

VR6GTI 04-11-2018 08:35 PM

No it won’t work

snake 04-12-2018 10:39 AM

Wont bolt and plug up, or wont look good?

Not a simple plug and play.

Oem JDM ITR or a Momo Montecarlo looks best on an ITR

jasonturbo 04-12-2018 01:37 PM

The best looking/feeling Honda wheel is the early DC2R MOMO steering wheel <3

JDM is getting hard to find locally. I'll check out that Montecarlo.

What year and car is that wheel from? No airbag on street car legal here?

tofu1413 04-12-2018 07:43 PM

96' spec four lug ITR's should come with the Non SRS wheel.


seen a few 98' spec on BMI without them as well. probably airbag was an option in Japan.

VR6GTI 04-12-2018 08:30 PM

My personal preference is the jdm itr srs wheel

Pretty sure its more of an insurance thing. I know its legal in Toronto.

twitchyzero 04-12-2018 09:12 PM
