Is it really surprising that the Japanese Type R won?

And did I hear that lady correctly......she said the UK Type R was under $18000......is that american dollars or british pounds?

And what's up with the little bug crawling around on the screen?

 

it's 18k GBP...

 

It's not surprising that the JDM Civic Type R won, but it is surprising that the winning margin was a whopping 3 seconds. The UK Type R is no slouch. I would like to know how the US Si does against those two. The UK Type R has a better tuned engine but the US Si has LSD.

 

very nice vid.

 

Doesn't the Type R have LSD too?

Not the UK version.

 

Don't UK CTR's come with the same engine as Si's.
Si has LSD but FN2 weighs 2787lbs. hmm I think it would be interesting race.

Yes the FN2 comes with the same engine. Atleast to my knowledge


That would be a great race adding the Si in.

 

Screw that hatch, that 4dr looks sick!!!

 

Cars and almost everything else are crazy expensive in the UK.

I'm not sure about other differences, but the UK engine does the VTEC switchover at 5400 RPM, a lot earlier than the US version.

Cool, I didn't know that. Wonder why? They must have a different program on the ecu for the early switchover.

 

Not that much of a difference. The Civic Si's vtec hits at 5800 rpms.
