DC...So you can have some kind of pep in the motor while being stock. And you wont have to do much to make it look clean. Just slap on a nice lip with a drop to compliment it, along with some wheels...and your set for a lil bit.

Imma a "Big Guy" myself and EKs work great for me I Love My EJ6 Hatch and My FBP EM1 will be my fav car ever. Eks are easy to work with and swaps are a breeze an LS alone should be pleasing and cheap.... thats just mt .02$

tbh, ek hatches have a bigger interior than tegs. lol. i feel so cramped when driving my friends or sister in laws dc. personally, i like the ek hatch, just cause i have one...youll be doing better with the dc stock motor though. i swapped out my lame D for an ls-v lol.

if you dont mind waiting for a motor swap, id go with the ek, but if you dont want to deal with it and still look good, go with the teg. i vote ek hatch :D

Well if i had to choice between the two I'd go with the EK, just because I only like the DC w/the JDM front end. Its all about what your looking for, there both easy to mod, and you can get just about any part for them both. But are you looking for space, more power, good on gas, power options, etc etc.....Me on the other hand I like to go with something that you just don't see alot of, I drive an EE2 wagon. Good luck with which ever one you choose.

Get a DC you wont regret it. If you get an ek you'll have to deal all the no power window, abs, sunroof, power door lock, and ect. DC are pretty much the whole package.
