Stupid PPL:
EP3R is faster derp.

Short memory PPL:
Lets argue EP3 vs FN2

its a honda after all, takes a few more year to see some issue.

should always go for the revised FN2r for the LSD, dont stuff around installing aftermarket one as it costs a bit to install.

you really need to state what u gonna use the car for. if it is daily, definately FN2r, so nice to drive, i test drove it thru traffic hour and it is so easy to live with. might be because all my cars are harsh and noisy.

It's going to be a weekend car as I have a work car for weekdays.

My reasons for the FN2R is because it's newer (mainly interior concern) than my current car, less attention from the police (constantly looking over my shoulder) and is more driveway/ carpark friendly. I know I could bring my current car back to stock height but once it has been lowered plus additional lip/extensions all round it is too hard to go back, always got to move forward hey. Because of these reasons I tend to not drive my car as to many places so kind of defeats the purpose of a car. Plus I'm asian and have never owned a type R :P

honestly, i would personally go for FN2R anytime.

if you have to choose civic.

but then again, why u want the civic over Evo if it is weekend car?

Like I said above... updated interior, less police attention and can drive to more places without getting worried. I'm getting older now and want more creature comforts and less wrong attention. I don't only go cruising on the weekends, I still got to do normal activities so the Evo is less practical in that sense.

Don't see how an Evo attracts more attention unless you got phat wheels and its hell loud

i think honda accord euro suit you more. but anyway, FN2R mate.

Even stock ones on the Evo forums get pulled over and harassed. Mine is far from stock.

Maybe, but baby steps bro.

What's going to stop you fron modding the FN2R or your next one?
Then you'll be back to the same problem...

**DVS-00R** · 08-01-2013 04:37 PM

^ I have my reasons but best if I keep it to myself.

should join fn2r.com.au if u want more info about the fn2r plus extras, small nit community.

I have a fn2r and its a great DD, that's if u can with stand the harshness of stock suspension

if u cant, can always go coilovers and change the harshness.

Also if u are looking into modding the car, parts r expensive compared to dc2/ek, not many out there who are into the modification. I modified my fn2 according to what i thought it needed for my DD needs. I racked up 2.5k in mods already and not even finished yet.

Well.. thats my thoughts on the fn2r
