i prefer dc5R...rare =) in my place..
fd2R have too much copycat......damnnn
like this oneNone of the above!
Unless if it's an NSX..
lengchai, you dissapoint me lar.FD2R sir
i really do wanna know why?1. in term of performance the FD2R outshines DC5R in every departments from straight line speed to taking corners at track.
wiki also says it's Curb Weight of 1,266 kg (DC5R) vs 1,270 (FD2R)Honda claims the body is 50% more rigid than the previous Japan-only DC5 Integra Type R, and the new model features an independent rear suspension rather than the torsion beam configuration used on the latest European Civic Type-R.[2] To save weight, aluminum is used extensively and bonded with adhesive instead of welded. Though the body is larger and more rigid than JDM Integra Type R, it is only 1.8 kg (4 lb) heavier
3. DC5R is definitely more comfortable compare to FD2R. FD2R is simply too stiff to my liking. the engine is also noisier
5. maintenance/spare/performance parts i would say DC5R is cheaper. a lil bit
changing to a softer suspension on a performance car, you mean?quick question
3. if change suspension, would it still be too stiff?
Excuse my noob-ness ...changing to a softer suspension on a performance car, you mean?
wanna cheap comfy car? buying a good used mercedes W124 makes for a better decision (imo) :hmmmm:
me noob oso (hence the noob-like answer)Excuse my noob-ness ...
But what I meant was if we were to mimic an equivalent suspension of a DC5 setting,
Would the overall ride stiffness would still be the same?
Considering chassis & body rigidity difference, etc of FD2R & DC5
