cooin Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 DC5 is more lovely, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 DC5 is more lovely, is it? Depends on your view, I guess. More modern, less raw and has the K20 engine which is more tuneable. I prefer the DC2 for it's rawness and engine, but then I'm biased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinitom Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 DC5 is more lovely, is it? the dc2 got better engine! and i don't think the dc5 is more tunable, there is much more stuff for the old dc2 than dc5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 the dc2 got better engine! and i don't think the dc5 is more tunable, there is much more stuff for the old dc2 than dc5. The K20 is more tuneable than the B18c. The B18c is such a good engine to begin with it's hard to squeeze any more out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian W Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 you can get aprx. 280 hp all motor well tuned. I assume you mean turbocharged right? No way you're getting anywhere near that figure from a B18c without some sort of forced induction. Edited to say: no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 no 280hp from the B18C? Spill the beans then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinitom Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 280hp from the B18C? Spill the beans then? well a bit ambitious! but have heard some histories to around 250 without forced induction ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgeer Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Speaking of missing old cars, I miss my little celica st202, I wish i'd kept it now as a daily runaround but sold it and kept my 306 deisel turbo, I soon got bored of that and bought a mkiv XR3i to drive run around in but it's not as great as I remembered it when I last had one when I was 19, I do like it and they handle brilliantly but the fuel economy is rubbish in ratio to it's bhp/performance (or lack of) and the insurance premium is ridiculous for a 8v 1.6, (had it insured with SKY until they quoted me about £1360 for my renewal), I ended up paying about £350 through admiral which is still very high in my opinion. I think the celica was actually better on fuel and that was quite a quick little car for a n/a 2 litre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraspeed Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 i had a mint condition dc2 before getting my supe. not bad for a 20yr old at the time lol. few mods and got 229bhp rolling roaded. very quick and by far the best fwd handling car to date. miss it a lot, effortless round corners and can embarrass nearly everything on twisties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
