shocks inside coil is called a strut.
DC5 have a macpherson setup and EK,dc,eg have a double wish bone setup..

I want to do supersprint next year.. eheheh
OMg get yourself a camber kit already...
Wakefield is not friendly for lowered cars if you go off track unless your not a pro driver and stay on the track :p

Please refer :

From article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_wishbone
A single wishbones or A-arms are used in various other suspension types, such as MacPherson strut and Chapman strut.

From article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut
It is not generally considered to give as good handling as double wishbone suspensions, because it allows the engineers less freedom to choose camber change and roll center.
Ok Blitz lol.
The term "machperson strut " directly refers to a "all in one" shock/spring combo. (IE any eg or ek shock).
The DC5 is still a machpershon strut , just single wishbone on the front and the steering arm connects directly to the shock.
Anyway , perhaps get a frontal castor kit if you want to increase turn in and response.
A Shock/Spring combo is called a coilover system which is found in various suspension designs - Macpherson or double wishbone.
The Eg Civic doesn't have a Macpherson on the rear simply because the coilover does not control the position/angle of the wheel.

Double wishbone setup uses and extended the hub carrier outwards from the chasis... EG. double A arms
I think what you were referring to is : -
coil over strut setup.. nothing to do with macpherson strut
