Civic Type R

[Graham]

Morning,
A mate at work has just bought himself a Civic Type R brand new and wants a race, reconing its faster . I laughed my ***** off, as i think i know the result. My spec is 285hp, 425Nm. I clicked 280Km/hr the other week with a bit still left according to the clock. Dont think i have got out to worry about have i. ??

I got burned once with a type R. Had major boost leak problems at the time though. My advice to you is to ignore this ignoramous.. failing that.. go for a spin!!

Having owned both (my type-r was 240bhp) you have no reason to worry

those type r's are great............getting smaller in your rear view mirror

If your s2 is fit should be able to toast it

although try and steer clear of a tight handling route, you will lose if he can drive....
straight line, no problems...

[s2driveruk]

unless its peeing with rain, then of course it should be no contest...

Talking of these rubbish rice racers... Looking at the local Autotrader this week, there are FIVE complete pages full solid of nuthin but Honda Civics. MOst of them white with unpainted 'carbon' bonnets. FFS

Then we have all the Audis advertised with 'quattro wheels' and 'quattro kits' - none of em with 4WD but hey - prehkin idiots.

I have also had a tuned CTR, the older EP3 modell (01-05) Witch was tuned in everyway. about 240hp there too. And there are reasons to why i sold it and bought my 3,rd S2 again=) Go on mate fry his balls off!

I had a CRX Del-Sol VTEC behind me a few nights ago and absolutely obliterated it. It wasn't standard either so it shouldn't be too far off a Type-R.
