EG6 vs EK4 vs CL7R vs EP3R vs FD2R vs AP1/2

[YEN96]

Comparing the Honda's DOHC engine ....Using B series now and thinking of my next car.

anyone driven or change from one to another of the above...value ur feedback and comment

COnsidering EP3R, CL7R, FD2R or S2K AP1/2. DOn't mind an EK4 is price is good

 

[Ling Reiden]

since you are driving a B series engine,bet you like for power more then design FC maintenance...would recommend you go for K20A which is FD2R....
just my 2cent la bro

EP3R and FD2R = 2 door vs 4 door (i've been onboard EP3R and FD2R...both can be faster than the other base on modification)

CL7R = comfort + performance but body weight can be an issue..

S2000 = cleary sporty with 2 door and 2 people only...rear wheel...can drift...but high on maintenance and sparepart are quite rare here

EK4 = most least HP between the above...cheaper to maintain...got to have at least b18cr or b20 to be on par with the above...

i'm more into S2000 here...the car is quite rare...if u already got a family car...mybe S2000 is a gamble choice since it can be for weekend car/fun car...

btw...i'm an EK4 pilot~

i hope yen96 is not hanracing LOL...

i choose fd2r hehehe

 

[EddieYee]

for performance, i will choose eg6(lower budget)wit their potential handling and light weight fd2r(higher budget) guess i dun need to mention much.
for comfy + lil performance = cl7

my 2cent.

Jus asking bro.....why dun u put DC5 in ur list. K20A oso what.

Sumore, talking bout design, it's spottier than ep3, fd2r, ek4, eg6 n cl7. Cannot lawan s2000 only.

 

[pwhyze]

I must say, pretty hard to compare since all of them belong to different classes.
In my opinion....

You value sportiness over all else? Get the S2000.
You want luxury with a little bit of poke? Get the CL7R.
Want practicality and performance? Get the EP3R.
You can afford a bit more performance and practicality? Get the FD2R.
Want performance on a budget? Get the EK4.
Want sportiness on a budget? Get the EG6.

Or

You're actually a tree hugger? Get the CR-Z.

dude get da FD2R.... i wouldnt sayin costly for service, its almost the same to a normal civic...
only get costly when u get trap by modf yr car.

YEN: What is the purpose of the car? Second car? Weekend car? Race car? Family car?

 

[YEN96]

Now driving EG6 so i guess EK4 being same engine will be last choice unless very good buy.

Of cos i like FD2R but car price is high.

Like S2000 because is exciting car. Ap1 or AP1 i dun mind and rear wheel drive is something different. Car price also high.

CL7R is more affordable but i feel performance wise not so good as FD2R. And car is very heavy. Comfort wise i think is good.

EP3R - I find the shape special and unique. And i like hatch car. Car is rare also.

DC5R - I cannot appreciate the shape and look of the car. But if price is attractive, i dun mind.

Ultimately , i choose the car base on money spent vs amount of fun and performance.

If can afford i will choose FD2R.

find a EF or CRX with a b18cr and suitup handling and braking will be good enough to catch up with de fds...cheers!

I vote for cl7r....the sporty unique n handsome design was awesome.Well,i have tested with some eg,ek,fd2r equiped b16-b20-k20a.The performance can match up or slightly win with the smaller honda stated above if u know how to mod the cl7r k20a.I love it coz the car was really comfort with performance complete package.If drag for 400m above,cl7r sure win bcoz off its 4,5,6 gear ratio n fd.
