you will probably need to rebuy all the parts you sold...

but maybe try bbk to start

The DC2R chassis is much better if your talking about driving at limits.


Why would you part out if you were gonna buy the same car again. Dumb move.


This is where Honda/most manufactures are failing, all the newer cars they are making turning out to be POS compared to their older counterparts.
How long is one gonna be a driving a car made in the 90's.

Kinda walked around my question lol. I said what mods is needed to beat it. (Straight line OFC).

Aren't they already nearly same same 0-100KM?

Better driver will win.

Stock vs Stock.

If your chasing power from your K20, cheapest option that will net the acceleration best gains K24 bottom.

Stock for stock not even close. Dc2 leaves FN2 straight away. I'm not chasing extreme power I just want enough power to take down ole mate dc2.

remove weight from car

start with full interior strip

Bro they are same in a straight line.

I just googled to confirm they are coming back around the same same times 0-100 on nearly every forum and site.

I have driven both, they have same same straight line guts. Infact dc2r, dc5r, dc5s, fn2r will be very similar to each other in straight line. I think slightly faster is EP3R and S2k.

Maybe if you learn to shift faster or launch just outside vtec range you can beat him. Or the other option is buy a falcon/commodore if your after straightline speed.

Spec's don't convey everything.

The times from manufacturers and forums are the 'best' times achieved ie 1 luck run.

I think what OP is saying is how to consistently do it. DC2R can achieve the recorded time most of the time unless driver error. FN2R however the recorded time is much much harder.

OP apart from driver skills, you need to see what modifications to make it easier + consistent to drive.

As lilthug said, one way is the weight disparity, lighter the car is, easier not to bog down, easier to accelerate, etc etc. Lightened Flywheel, etc.

A stock FN2 gets high 15's-16 down the quarter. a DC2R gets high 15's, and I think this is mostly due to the dig

What really matters is their trap speed, if you have this data then you can compare properly

Talking like his already heading out track.

Pssht, I wasnt gonna turn down the offer from a Honda.

Well tbh I wouldve If i were to hear his compressor surge earlier.

Isn't it true though? Nobody pushes 100% on the street so it's more a comparison of recklessness.

I have a dirty shift secret for 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd.


Dont let go of the accelerator.
