I would choose the DC5R - Reasoning:
Inspected ALL Dc2r and DC5R before purchasing 2 weeks ago.
Okay Good luck to the guys who have their DC2R for sale for 15K+ ... Most of them were missing log books, interior looked like it aged well, but it has aged and the sun damage starts to be more then just noticeable. Too me, sure DC2r is a legend, Im a honda fan boy. But paying 15k for a car that turns the oil black on the 1st drive after the oil change. Sorry to break it to the current DC2R owners, you car has done more then that ~150KM that your claiming. Just little things here and there on nearly all had something little wrong that I would not want to part with my 15k. The only one that I inspected was perfect, was asking 19k for the car.... 5k more and i get a s2k (The owner is an ozhonda member)
DC5R. Now its slower then the DC2R and much harder to drive, steering wheel is heavy etc etc etc. But upside, For the same amount of fuel that i put into my 1.6l im getting more KM's out of my new 2.0l motor, thanks to its 6 speed box. Its been 2 weeks since i have done an oil change, Its still golden! Currently car reads 186xxx KMs as well. My last b series was showing 156xxxkm on the clock the fresh oil would turn black the second you turn on the motor. This only cost me 14k.
Its preference i guess, If your after a daily i would say get the DC5r as i did. If your after a weekend car find the damn best Dc2r in the market and dont be fooled by its KM's on the clock, check interior, paint, check to see for welds if the panel bolts still have the factory paint on them etc etc. New for new Dc2r is a better car, but second hand the DC5R wins my books.
My dc2r if for sale.

None. because B18C already makes 200hp and K20A is still at 200hp.

K these are Japanese models, they have better fuel and what not to allow that higher compression. now lets compare aus delivered motors.
B18c7 140kW with 172nM @ 7500RPM (WHOA thats pretty late to make max pull) - found in aus dc2r.
K20a2 147kW with 193nM @ 5600 (thats nearly 2k drop in rpm to make max pull) - found in aus dc5r.
Now the k series technologies that the b series wishes it had, timing chain, 6 speed box, earlier vtec engagement, etc etc the list can go on.
But there is one thing the b series has over the k (in my eyes) that crossover, so much more sexier then the k series.
Could factor in the weight between the two?
Dc2 with k swap!!
Yep, its so good, most people sell them after they build them.Quote:
