The engine was actually the worse part of the FD in my opinion. There's nothing that it does that a modern piston engine can't do better.
I had one of the last FDs ever made. The Spirit R from Japan with all the goodies.
Stock vs stock, the 86 actually handles much better than a FD. On the limit (very high limits), the FD has terminal understeer and a lot of bodyroll. Whereas the stock 86 is one of the best balanced stock cars I have ever driven on a track.
