I could understand your reasoning if the ukdm dc2 didnt come with a lsd like the jdm does but it doe, where as there are major differences between the jdm and ukdm civics like 20bhp and a lsd lol
Looking into it further the JDM CTR is quoted as 215PS which is 212bhp and the UK one is 197bhp so a 15bhp difference. The JDM DC2 Teg is 200bhp and the UK spec is 187bhp so a 13bhp difference.
So although I originally got it wrong, the point I was trying to make is still the same.
And just for reference the DC5 is at 220PS, which is 217bhp.
The JDM cars are all setup to run on 105RON petrol as well. Which all helps.
