Yep, that'd be the only real negative that I could summize.

 

wait i thought of another...

they make every stunna in a mustang and civic want to race us from stop lights. would someone please help me understand what it is about our cars that make people want to do that??

 

Cupholders are ***

 

Third gear syncro.

 

cup holders suck really bad....seats are almost adaquate. final drive seems a little tall at times.

 

Not neccessarily negative but, definitely something that holds the ITR back is the Driver Totally!

You put a great driver in a stock R with maybe some R compounds and R pads and they will lap poorer drivers easily.

JoO nEeD tHa AtS fInAl Yo! Sorry I don't have another to give away.

 

in the dc2 i can only say i hate stock brake pads and it would be great to have 6 speed gearbox

In the dc5 i just hate i dont have one

 

Love lapping poorly driven big-buck $upercars! Sometimes even lap well driven $35,000 cars Type R = bang for the buck!

 

mee meep roadrunner horn and lack of lowend torque

Anton,

this is not the "weakness" of the car... That`s just a problem in US...
The DC2 has a lot weak points.. More than I can put together in a minute...
But most points are just my own feel.. It`s not built for tall drivers.. and that sucks in many cases... can`t sit in the Recaros with helmet, I choose a tight seat position and my knees collide, so I move the seat back and can`t reach the **** in 5th... and so on..
But a less tall driver may like it.

The DC2 sucks for me because I have to build it new.. but I luv it at the same time

 

Main gripe about owning a ITR:

- Always feeling the need to protect it from theives like it's a $100,000 car
- Insurance costs the same, if not more, like a $100,000 car

 

lack of torque..unfortunately

 

Syncros suck ***.

 

sucky glove box ...cant even fit a gun in there

I think the thread starter intended to hear about performance weaknessess, not retarded wanksta issues.

That is strange - I am 6'3" and fit fine in my car with a helmet...

I`m 1,92m tall, that`s same as you..
But I have full contact of helmet/roof when just sitting. And very often I almost jump with my R on track... I can`t turn my head to the left to see the friggin`GT3`s coming.... It`s really bad.
Note that I have JDM seats... But also in an OPM seat (type "grip") I do sit not low enough. Guess that has something to do with the body proportions..

Well, I`m running without helmet.. But this year I start serious competitions and I will have to..

 

no ****, do you grind when you are racing or running hard and hit third?

 

they just break from running hard. i dont know why my 5th keeps going out. i never even go hard in 5th at all .
