Keep my DC2R or EGK20A?

[shebangs]

Dc2r-t!

[Lossehelin]

thanks for the opinions guys... i think i'll be keeping the dc2r for another year or so. the costs and time for an eg k-series build seems a bit expensive to get the car where i want (brakes, suspension, etc).

also... my mate ran a 14.6 on a stock dc2r which i think is a great time for a stocker. plus drags, circuit... it all involves driving and its all enjoyable. as if u've never "dragged" some off from the lights, i bet everyone has done it at least once on these forums. theres also the bunch who enjoy the spirited drive down the old roads. both driving style all includes skills, some may be really good at launches/shifts down at the 1/4 and when it comes to windy roads they have some trouble and vice versa. but that "straightlines are for pussys" comment was a bit uncalled for :/ not having a go at you ricky!

Back on topic- If i had a stock-ish dc2r, I'd change the exhaust, header, intake ECU and call it a day.

It's a fabulous package from the factory, it doesn't really need anything else, and these mods alone are enough to get it deep into the 13's.

dude go back n read the quote, it says $5000 rotary.. some how i dont think any of those you listed are below $5000...
bring me any rotary worth $5000 and i WILL destroy them and your comments lol

thanks xcon

I meant $5000 engine set up dude.......seriously you cant deny the fact that an average rotary engine will smash you......and how much is your K conversion going to cost approx $13000, for that kind of cash you can produce a 9-10 sec rotary, or better..........not 12-13's which I assume you would be more than happy to do.

I'm not knocking your enthusiasm for your Honda's as we all love them, if your keen to do a conversion then its all good, just don't put shit on something cause you believe what you have done/doing is the best.

so you change your story around.. first you say $5000 rotary then you change your story around to SPENDING $5000 on just the motor.. get your story straight..
im not bagging rotarys.. i dont mind them.. but when you make a comment like any $5000 rotary will beat any K-series conversion and B-series turbo.. i wanted to prove you wrong..

and whats that about ANY rotary engine smashing me?? i beat will and have beaten many stock/average rx7 series 6..
and when did i say my conversion was the best.. dont put words in my mouth.. i challenged your comment and that was all..

I'm with ginganggooly!!!!

i know jords post about $5000 rotaries may have been ambiguous but i understood what he meant... i thought it was quite obvious actually! so can you guys relax? Misunderstoo comment, nothing more. It's the internet, havent u ppl learnt yet to clarify things before doin a gasket over a forum comment?! IMO that's as lame as complaining about type-o's. lol.


Anyway... somewhere in the for sale section there's a k20/k24 frankenstein for sale. why not do something different and drop that in the DC2R. You'll be able to make some good cash back from selling your B18C stuff, and you also get to put some wow & surprise factor back into beating Nissans
Just an idea. g/l with the decision

[7ypeR]

DC2R for sure. Car will always hold better value than eg civic any day no matter wots done to the car. It looks sh*t loads better and atleast you can sell your b18cR for cash to put towards the k20 you want.

this thread is entertaining to say the least.

either circuit or drags both take skill to master. If your car is a true 'track' car then it should be able to do both. I dont see how one person made the commet ' straight lines are for pussy's'?? if its for pussys then how come i dont see people with there full sick jdm bling mods or there 10k+ rebuilds out at WSID on wednesday nights when we are there??

imo, end of the day if you got a 10k+ motor then you shouldnt make excuses like ' its for circuit' because for ffs you spent that much you should be out there giving it a thrashing of its life....no point driving around with so much jdm bling or full sick engines that sound good on paper for nothing, end of the day its just wank factor and your just a 'poser'

just my take on this...

[e240]

No matter how much you spend on the EG at the end of the day its just a civic and will not be worth as much when it comes time to resell. just something to think about.
