The best thing about DC2R is you can put a K20 in it.

The Australian delivered DC5 wasn't the full bag of goodies but was still quite strong for a $45k package.

Looking at the extreme end of modification like my car, the gap between the DC5 and DC2 becomes even greater. The chassis is far superior and does a much better job of putting extra power down. If anyone disagrees you're more than welcome to build a similar DC2 and prove me wrong. :)

damn. does this mean if someone was to build a time attack dc2r they are wasting their time with an inferior platform?
it was always my dream to put a k series in my dc2 and turn it into a time attack car.. but if its true that the chassis is inferior too then i would be very sad indeeed =/

nelson has a jdmk20 dc2r and hes running really fast laptimes in wakefield i think around the low 1.08s

dc4 FTW!

dc4 is a gsi lolz
