yeah each little mod makes you feel a little bit better, i was in your exact spot many times haha, first i crashed my car, had a primered hood and black front bumper, people kept hitting my car, so dents all over. Eventually had a spray painted hood and bumper, blue fender, rear bumper and valance, and a different color green driver side door, finally the car is all clean and one color hahah

Seems like Honda fixed the bugs they had with the DC5 and EP3 with the FD2. They've had great success with that car and its handling.

It's crap. Why change things that work? Why not follow proven tradition? Fact is still they went downhill with those designs making it harder to tune with no greater benefit for time spent.

Well, it's not always good to stagnate. For example, the Civic went from a mushy, understeering hatchback to a rigid, neutral handling sedan that now destroys all of its predecessors.
As much as I'm not a fan of change, you can't deny that sometimes it's for the better. I had to concede that once I saw FD2 Type R Civics breaking off S2000s on the circuit and the togue.
If not for learning from its failures with the DC5 and EP3, Honda wouldn't have perfected its new suspension setups.

It all depends with whose hands the tuning is done with. The FD2 can just as well be put to shame like a DC5 and EP3 if you put it against a properly set-up DA for example.

Well, if I was building an FF race car, it would most definitely be a K20 DC2. Can't get much better than that.
