Anyone else got this ? In the Jap data table they list the DC5's 0-60 time as 6.8 sec ???

The EP3 is 6.5 but listed with less bhp and torque ?????

I think they have got their figs all wrong !!! Oh well might just put more people off buying one :wink: Wish mine did it in 6.8 secs :wink:

Archie :lol:

Will probably put few people off and hopefully they buy CTR's instead :wink:

How much does white EP3 go for?

I mean.. their both 220bhp rite?

guess having a white EP3 in the UK are rare then a DC5 rite?

If i had to have an EP3 then it would be a white JDM

I dont think they have a LSD thats the main difference....

JDM EP3 has 215PS (due to lower compression than the DC5) which should equal about 211/212bhp@fly :)

hows that work? Thye leave the factory with LSD but with No brembos.

And CTRs are rarer as not as good as a performance car at end of the day.
