DC2-R Vs DC5-R

[2NTICN]

Just wanted your thoughts on which is a better car all round?
Would the b18c beat the k20 coz its in a slightly smaller body or does the dc5-r have enough power to still rip the dc2-r?
Which would be better in a straight line? and
Which would be better in twisties?

i think you will get many opinion, depending on what driver likes.
the way the two cars drive and seating position and feeling are slightly different, so the car feels different to each driver.
the b18c seem slightly faster stock than k20 stock, but once modded, the k20 has more potential.

this may be a really stupid question but ive never been in a prelude vtir, but a dc2-r would smash a '2000' prelude vtir wouldnt it?

Short answer = yes, given the equal factors
but they are different cars, the Prelude is a nice car to cruise with the creature comforts, the dc2r, you get a engine and seats.

stock for stock dc2r is bettter ... coming from a dc5r driver

[^^v]

r we talking about JDM or AUDM models?

i'd have to say the JDM dc5r would have the edge overall over the dc2r...
more power... better breaks.. bigger rims... and a few other extras

Aus DC2R vs. Aus DC5R the DC5R is faster 0-100km/hr but the DC2R feels faster (and better all round if you like a sporty car). This is coming from someone who owned a DC5R and got so damn frustrated with it that he sold it for a DC2R.

I like dc2r more than dc5r before but i've changed. It seems like the dc2r has went to it's limits already, it's true that there are so many aftermarket parts avaliable for the dc2r but the trend is all aftermarket manufacturer are starting to develop the performance parts for dc5r cos the dc5r have more potentials

For example: Mugen EP3 (Same base and they develop EP3 rather than DC5) ?

Spoon Sport - Seems like they are aiming to develop the CL7,9

They don't bring out dc2r or ek9 to race anymore

one is a race car

one is a moderately powered "luxury" coupe.

Mmmm DC5R is more liveable for a daily driver.... DC2R is prob faster in stock form.... DC5R responds better to mod....... depends on what you want.....
