Dc5r or s15?

[eg5civic]

I know. Just like your EG XD

Eh

i was down at SAS

and i tell you know 57ING's s15 sounded liek a bag of shit down the main straight (no offense to him its a beautiful car but just engine note is rank)

SR20's (as alexx said) sound like a diesel truck going down the pit straight

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Also factor in resale time, i think it will be a bitch to resell an Autech S15. Due to the fact it is an import and there isnt much demand for one...

Sorry i have to disagree on one fact.

P-plate laws kicked in yo'

he probably has VCT rattle. its irrelevant.

yeah sounded sorta liek that

but it is relevant

I mean, i love honda's for what they are, just liek you love your autech

To me the sound of VTEC is just pure awesome, to you the sound of sr20

Dont get me wrong man i have nothing against S15's i love them no doubt just like i love many other cars apart from honda's

But my opinion is i'd take the dc5R over the s15 autech
But a dc2R over both :P

well the way i see it...buying an Autech S15 is like buying a Big mac without Meat patties LOL

Yeah my general rule of thumb is dont buy a car which is well know for being turbo in non turbo varient

Ex. Twins from school got an r33 skyine and think its a gtr or soemthing
same as another chick and her ex show car supra

Land barges with no power due to lack of turbo

not as bad for the s15 as its a relatively light car but still

[TODA AU]

Stock vs stock...
It's pretty close but I'd still favour the DC5.
Go & modify both, the DC5 has loads more potential.
The Autech is already tuned & there's not a great deal left in it.
(Has a nasty dissy too)

[VTECMACHINE]

Ahhhh, I love both. The Autechs go very very nicely.

Too hard to decide really. But S15 with no turbo just spoils it for me. DC5R has more potential as Toda AU has stated. So yeah end of the day i'd do DC5R.

[xtercii]

I own an autech s15. yes stock for stock power to weight ratio the dc5r prevails but autech has more torque to back it up. its even got more than the jdm model. 9,000 rpm red line. power peaks more as well. looks is really for you to decide. everyone obviously has different tastes. i'd doubt jdm silvia with full aero kit looses on looks to the DC5R. Autech S15 is literally Spec R fully equipped but missing a turbo charger. better bang for your buck.

9000rmp is hectic, is it a 2L or 1.6?

[kriZy]

i'd do dc5r as my first car.
then move onto turbo's later for EXTRA power when you get used to N/A.
you need driving experience before upgrading to a faster car.

[Dean Machine]

no vtec in an s15.. it sounds awesome

[CRXDEL501]

so S15 is overated huh? i can say exactly the same to DC5R/DC2R.

why bag out on a dc5/dc2 on ozhonda.

your a clown.

autech s15

but mate.. get a dc5 i say. im biased i prefer dc2 but yeah. all it comes down to is personal preference.
