But driving a DC5R doesn't give me that warm fuzzy feeling inside a DC2R does
Yeh I agree with you. The DC5 is like a dc2+benz. I have both a 03 DC5R and 01 DC2R both fully stock, The DC2R just pulls like a horse compared to the sluggish DC5R.
Although there was an upgrade to the 01 DC2R's intake cam, I've driven a stock 99 ITR and I have to say the 99-00 ITR isn't that much difference in acceleration to the DC5R.
It's a pity that our DC5Rs have been stripped from its true JDM form
-LSD
-Brembos
-11.5CR
-cams
-suspension
-tranny
i dont know why Honda AU is so stingy to bring in a cheaper DC5. Really pisses me off because I believe ALL type R owners wouldn't mind paying more for the real thing.
If you compare the JDM DC5R to the JDM DC2R, the JDM DC5R wins.
Overall when you sit in a DC2R it feels like a real 'Race Car'
