Hi dvino, welcome to the club!
About the smoke, i agree with minivan and timmy-the-gay.
About the engine rev on the high side, Type-R engines are best driven at high revs!!
High revs is where it really performs!
On the rough engine, if you haven't already done so, i suggest you send it to a workshop and do a full service, including draining, bleeding and replacing ALL FLUIDS like engine oil, transmission/LSD oil, brake and clutch fluid, power steering fluid, etc.
You sales man might have told you he has services the car, etc, DO NOT believe.
Better safe than sorry.
If you are not used to the car, take it easy first, get to know its handling and power better before driving in extremes.
Don't get poisoned by prasath-mr-230whp to go track so soon.
Stock DC5R clutch is very soft and so not stiff. Either yours is using aftermarket ones or you really need to change your clutch fluid.
Hope to see u at the next TT session.
p.s. timmy IS THE ONLY gay dc5 driver. We have learnt to accept that, so shall you.
