Is that a damaged silver S15 at the back too?

That DC5 looks flattened alittle... obviously the crash is sad but it makes me think the DC5 would've looked abit better if it wasn't as fat as it is.

 

i think something landed on it...
maybe the concrete

 

The DC5R weighs less than the DC2R.

 

Looks like a Mini back there too

really....

i'd like to see numbers

 

USDM DC2R Weight: http://www.edmunds.com/used/2001/acu...tml?id=lin0066

2,639 lbs

JDM DC5R Weight:
http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/integra_r/grade-data/

1,170 KG = 2,579 lbs.

 

so RSX-s is different wieght then @
coz i remember read spec about RSX which is 80kg heavier than dc2r

 

Makes sense, as the DC2 ITR is lighter than the DC2 GS-R, part of making the R

 

Mine weighed 2575 pounds with 1/8 tank of fuel and full interior. Guess it all depends if it's fueled or not.

USDM DC2s sound fat

AUSDM and Euro DC2s weigh 1087kg.

 

You are comparing USDM with JDM weights. The DC-2 is about 2440 lbs in Japan.

 

Yeah i'm pretty sure DC5R is heavier than DC2R

 

That's strange if the DC5-R weighs less than the U.S. DC2-R. If it weighs less, and it's carrying 220 hp, then I would assume that thing would fly. REALLY fly.

 

Look at that poor S15 in the back

 

id love it if that junkyard was in my area. 20.00 pick-a-part JDM lot. 20.00 gets you anything you can carry out. Id have a motor strapped to my back

 

I believe the DC2R weight listed there is for an AC equpied 98+ ITR. Is it not? The 1997s were rated a little lighter since they did not come standard with AC and rear wiper setup...
The 1997 w/o AC was rated at 2560 lbs...

strange the edmunds site lists the ITR heavier then the gsr

 

the dc2-r is a great car, but the dc5-r is a much better car in every category. handling, 0-60, 1320 and its lighter. plus it has a 6-spd. well, the only bad thing is that the dc5-r doesn't have a rear double wishbone suspension but thats the only flaw i can think of.

 

I like the way the B series motor crys at high RPM, when you really push it.
it sould like I am killing it, but the power keep comming ..
and the DC5 just lame.. the power is there but no more honda signature noise

References? I have seen only two comparison articles and both preferred the DC-2 because it is much more involving and raw.

Numbers? Have not seen the figures (lap times, 1/4 mile times, etc.) to back up this assertion. It is not lighter - the original poster was comparing JDM to USDM weights.

 

Yes for the Australian market. The DC5R weighs 1160kg. If I remember correctly the Australian DC2R weighs about 1080kg. I didnt know the American DC2R was that heavy....

 

You mean a front double wishbone
