DC5r or Rx7??

Hey guys, I am driving a DC2r now wanting to change into another car.
For the budget of 30k, this is the 2 car i came up with after a long nite of researching! FD RX7 or DC5r! please give some advice!!

thanks

What type of feel are you going for? NA or Turbo, expect more fuel consumption from both vs your dc2r but the dc5r if kept out of vtec wont empty your wallet excessive amount compared to the dc2r obviously, but boost vs na, fuel consumption will be a bit more as well as insurance etc etc, In the end its what ever car makes you happy imo. Gl hope that gave some kinda insight :P Imo keep the dc2r :)

why do you want to change from the dc2r?

what do you want out of a car?

seems like he is after more power, I would go fd rx7 if I had a choice cos you rarely see them compared to DC5-R/S

for a tad over 30k you can find an s2k, which i rekon would be a lot more fun than the cars that you've listed. just an option thrown in there for you.

ive seen a few go for around ~32k which isnt that bad. good luck

From a DC2R, don't bother with the DC5R as it is pretty similar.

Evo FTW

wouldnt bother with dc5r since ur driving a dc2r

rx7 are great lookin, but don't expect cheap maintenace, and good fuel mileage
lol

id keep the dc2 r, unless you decide to get the fd rx7........they are a hot car, but maybe not for a daily..........they are a c%nt to maintaine, my bro has fc rx7, always got dramas with it, (he does drift it) i have dc2r, and i blow him off the road all the time, and if he does go faster once, it aint for long as something breaks........hahahaah
but you cant go past a boosted 13b.............
although my dc2r does sound quite tuff..........hehehe

are FD's more reliable than FC's? if you're after turbo rear wheel drive and want more reliability than a rx7, then try a S15, should be able to get one in good condition for under $30k too.

but if the choice is only between rx7 and dc5 i'd probably go with an fd rx7 but only if it was in good condition as i'd hate an unreliable car, and like others have said, dc5r similar to dc2r.

Apparently FDs have their fair share of reliability problems. Not as bad as the old FC, but they still aren't as solid as something like a Skyline GTR or Supra.
