Considering you mentioned "what's faster?", here are the performance & weight between the two.
B16A2 -
Power: 160 hp (119 kW) @ 7600 rpm Torque: 111 lb·ft (150 N·m) @ 7000 rpm
Redline: 8200 rpm
Rev Limit: 8400 rpm
VTEC Engagement: @5600 rpm
Weight: Estimate around (carsales figure) 1105kg
Power to weight ratio: Estimate around 107.69
DC2 will be quicker on the straight. Around corners would be a good match, though a small hatchback can pull through fast!
B18C2 -
Power: 168 hp (125 kW) @ 7600 rpm Torque: 128 ft·lbf (175 N·m) @ 6200 rpm
Redline: 8200 rpm
Rev Limit: 8300 rpm
VTEC Engagement: VTEC @4500rpm to increase air intake & build air velocity before opening the shorter intake ports @ 5,800rpm to increase top end power.
Weight: Estimate around (carsales figure) 1176kg
Power to weight ratio: 106.29
Calculation power to weight ratio: Kilowatts by the kerb weight and multiplying the product of the division by 1000.

Ek4 holds better value, dc2 have projector headlights, both have sunroof, B16A2 more fun, B18C2 has more torque, DC2R steering wheels are cheaper and more abundant then EK9 wheels. Both are 4x100. Ek4 is updated chasis vs dc2 which is based on EG.
Comes down to condition, price and what shape you like...

EK would be more fun like a sleeper. but a dc2 everyone will see it as a sports car.

See, this is exactly why I'd buy the Civic. I see the Civic as a fun hatch/sleeper, whereas the DC2 is a pretend sports car. I'd rather have a good example of a zippy hatch like a Civic or a Golf than a wannabe sports coupe like an Integra or Celica.

One day you'll learn that people can have opinions that differ from yours, and that it's probably best to keep quiet unless you're contributing to the conversation.
But hey, at least you made a great joke about periods. That was killer.

What is best, is you to get that giant penis checked out thats protruding on your head.

you even have your DP as a diagram of a RWD layout..........seriously bro...........

I disagree, the em1 hold its value more, better shape, same weight, has an ek9 gill and lip and doesn't have the ugly bumper mouldings of the ek4.

i don't even... DC2r is a pretend sportscar, right? Each to his own... IMO hatches are for girls and are no more than glorified shopping trolleys :P
A coupe has more front/rear dynamics -and (almost forgot), the 1999-00 Vti-r Civic is a coupe

WTFM8 OP never mentioned EM1...
Same shit, different shell... EM1 is practically Australia's answer to a FL and bum lifted EK4... And since they are later model replacement of EK4 hatch, duh it's gonna hold better value... I was comparing EK4 with DC2
-
I would pick the DC2 coz im biased and i have one lol ,, but honestly they are both great cars so would just come down to looks and which you would prefer =) ... inbox me if you want i might be selling my car =)
_____ it dont matter if you win by an inch or a mile .... winning's winning _____

Integras just feel so much nicer imo. I cant give you any professional input but... .DC2 ALL DAY
