    last time i checked, similar doesnt mean identical so obviously there are some differences.

    Then that was replaced by the FN2R...

    So does that mean that we should all sell our inferior "DC5R" and DC5S's and get FN2R's?

    FN2 are only 1 kw and 1nM torque better than DC5R. Where did you get that info of being superior? Get your facts straight

    They are either compatible or NOT compatible, theres no "most...maybe's,... if's...or buts" therefore they are compatible with K-PRO as you said all u need is the 02-04 Harness
    A couple of years ago Hondata did not release a version of Kpro specific to the DC5S.
    Thus back then only some ECU's from DC5S's were compatible with Kpro. But you still needed the 02-04 harness.
    If your ECU from a DC5S was not compatible with Kpro then in addition to the 02-04 harness you would also need a DC5R ECU.

    Refer to these threads:

    There is no need for your condescending attitude.
    Maybe you should check your facts before u start flaming people.
    I especially like how you completely ignore the input from chargeR.

    Double wishbone setups are over rated. My next mod is a torsion beam. LOL

    Now are you comparing the FN2R to the AUDM DC5R or JDM DC5R... and is that the pre-facelift of post-facelift DC5R?

    I can actually see why the Europeans put a torsion beam in the FN2R (As the FN2R was designed and built in the UK for those playing at home).

    Quite a few other European hot hatch's (Renault Clio, Pugeot 206) run torsion beam rear ends... and I know the Renault Clio Sport Cup is considered to be one of the best performing N/A hatch backs in the world.

    Tried my mates Clio Sport 172 actually. Not bad little cars. Quite surprised. Pretty sure it was running torsion beams at rear.
    But thats beside the point of this thread.

    I have driven a JDM DC5R, an AUDM Type S and own an AUDM DC5R. The differences just aren't worth getting worked up over. It is not like comparing an Evo to a DC5R for example where the differences in engineering and the way they drive are like chalk and cheese. The cars are very similar, and if for example one wanted to build a very heavily modified track car it would make not one whit of difference which car you started with.
