It's a whole different car mate! I loved my FN2 and VTEC was very addictive but the Zed pulls like a train in every gear and feels so much more refined than the FN2. Get one, you won't regret it!
Thanks for the response it's mainly the harsh ride, 6 years of type r suspension is enough for me will be stripping it back to standard shortly then the hunt for a Z will begin
Tell me about it! I never got round to changing the springs on mine but wish I did. The standard suspension on the Zed is miles better. Just seems more refined than the Type R. Good luck mate!
