Message: <blockquote data-quote="jessie" data-source="post: 3368321" data-attributes="member: 6257">The DC2 is based on the Civic (1991-1995). Therefore the closest platform shared with that generation Civic is the EG6 SiR. The EK9 is obviously a newer design and therefore the suspension and body is stiffer. However, Honda made the DC2 Type R quite a lot stronger than the EG6 or DC2 SiR when is debuted in 1995 autumn. When the EK9 debuted in 1997 autumn with its increased handling performance, the 98 Spec DC2 quickly followed in 1998 winter. The 98 Spec had increased body reinforcements to bring it on par with the EK9. However, the basic design is still based on older technology, making the EK9 still stiffer. Many Honda enthusiasts agree that the EK9 handles more neutrally and stable in corners, partly due to its longer wheelbase and short rear overhang. The DC2 has a slight tail out stance under constant velocity in corners.EK9 the body structure folding and welding points as well as some materials used already makes it heavier than the EG Civic, even though it isn't that much bigger. On the EK9, the front and rear reinforcement bar is much thicker than the DC2. One area that I feel is more rigid than the DC/EG chassis is the design of the front lower arm. On the DC/EG, the lower arm is a bolt on 2-piece type while the EK uses a L-shaped one piece type. Also from track experience with both cars, I have found that the EK9 has an advantage due to its short rear overhang hatch design. Bracing the rear of the DC2 to make the rear suspension more stable required some creative bracing. However on the winding roads, this very design makes the it a little tail happy (for a FF) which makes it fun!...comments?</blockquote>
