    I was after something that would give the kind of power delivery I get now on the Punto (Seb2 setup).

    I've had a Clio 172 and that was flat, great round corners but just not me. I was looking at a DC5, I've also read on quite a few forums that the Civic Type R was a toned down version of the Teg

    DC5 looks great but the vtec just isn't as exciting. K-series is a fantastic engine with more potential but it loses the rawness which is what makes the DC2.

    Agree, B series engines are more like race car engines than K-series.

    Civic Type-R and Integra Type-R (EP3 vs DC5) are different cars. They have different chassis. No way is the EP3 a toned down version. It's the same engine, but not got an LSD, and it's in a totally different chassis. The DC5 also has hydraulic power steering, giving it much more feel than the widely criticised electric power steering from the EP3.
    If you have any car care related questions, ask me in the Cleaning/Detailing section.

    Most bikers are too scared to give it hell on the twisties. Don't blame them tbh given the consequences of getting it wrong lol.

    I'd have to get the DC5 cause its the only one out of the two that come in blue.

    Kyle I still need to see you.

    So I take it that Cal has driven both? If so, if you had a choice which one?

    No I haven't, only driven (and owned the DC2). Been out in DC5's though. The DC5 is a newer more modern car but it just wouldn't be as fun for me. It's a car for fun so it fails compared to the DC2.
