LOL yeah i wanna ask that question too.

[RR-04-RR]

lol fi you're worried about suspension then none of this 3 cars would be an option, go buy a luxury car or harden up

I'm only running 10f/8r springs on near maxed stiff on my shocks on my 180, not uncomfortable at all

Let me reiterate. Harsh for some people. 'Firm' would be a better description. Ride comfort is a matter of opinion. DCR ride is quite firm for a production car ( personally I like it so i don't need to harden up mate ).

In stock form, s15 is a better daily. Suspension is softer and unlike the DC2R, it doesn't have a lightened flywheel, which can be annoying in peak hour.

You can't refute that.

so if you like the ride confort and type r clutches are light, then why not go for a Type R?

how does a lighten flywheel affect peak hour traffic? you're talking about the pressure plate of a s15? is so,they are light too.

Have you test driven both cars or just asking for everyones opinions?

Yea, I've test driven both cars thoroughly bud.

If you haven't noticed the thread is over 7 months old.

Due to reduction in work hours and other factors, I decided to keep my Em1 since. Someone just revived the thread recently after months of no replies.


Lend me 4k and I'll happily buy a DC2R if you are so passionate about it.

[RR-04-RR]

Yes i noticed that this thread is old, but yet you still replied with a comment regarding dc2r vs s15 .you said nothing about "work hours and other factors" so people were still assuming you were on the hunt and so thats why i replied to this thread.

I loved my dc2r, but i sold it and bought a nissan due to personal choice, i didnt want to start a thread about pros and cons

/Again, only when you're driving like a lunatic.

If one is responsible and drives to the conditions then there is zero chance of losing control.

Any car can lose it when you're driving like a lunatic. I think you're missing the key point "higher chance"

Mid range with the turbo kicking in = more dangerous in the wet.

Lol this thread is just pointless

Made a thread of what to get and never got one

Dude you need to harden up if you think a dc2r isn't a comfortable daily. The suspension I don't think would bother anyone

And a lightweight flywheel being an issue for peak hour? Ummm I got a toda fly and you don't notice it.

If you don't want to hear what some people think, even if it is not what you hear because you find it offensive don't post.

I had a stage 3 clutch and flywheel and drove in peak hour, but hey I'm a man

Get over yourself. "I'm a man". Just keep telling yourself that and maybe u might believe it.

This is a comparison thread of similarly priced Jap cars (except Dc2r, which is slightly cheaper ). Underemployment and married life stopped me from upgrading (I'm not a teen living with the pares), but there's been some interesting posts over the last 7 months.

And I'm open to all opinions, even if they are crap.

yeah, your right, there has been no interesting points.

like i said, it was pointless.

get it deleted since its not relevant since you have an em1

Having an em1 doesn't allow me to compare other cars?

Why are u still posting?

Be gone.
