I reckon go the DC2R .. They look better.. my 2c

If I had a choice, I'd get the DC2 also

i dunno... i'd always go with the newer stuff

the k20a has a ton of aftermarket potential, you're getting a newer, more torsionally rigid and -most likely- safer, car.
i've driven one (not in anger mind you) and i thought it was reasonable, if i little isolated for my taste. could do with more noise and power, but thats easily fixed. the only thing that really left me wondering was the strange steering, i didn't like it at all. seemed to feel a little vague, and too heavy.
anywho... the motor is a gem. i'd go for it for that alone. if i had the dosh :P

by the way, anyone care to explain how to shoehorn the engine into my dc2??

[jenova]

get the dc5r, so that I can always see u in my rear view mirror when we drag

[A'PEXi]

personally, i would take a brand new dc5r from the dealership

im looking forward to see the first k20 dc2 =P

DC2R all the way. If you can get one with the JDM front buy it! You won't be disappointed, they are awesome cars.

You planning on doing track work? What are your plans?

sadly the australian dc5r isn't really worth it i feel...
if you can get your hands on a jdm dc2r.. :twisted:
