anyone notice when shes driving, she has the windshield wipers on, but when they show the car on the track, the wipers are off? i bet that annoying brit couldnt even make it round the track. had to call in..... THE STIG!
EDM Type R doing 0 - 60 in 6.6? I don't think so. The previous Type R (2004 - 2005) did 0 - 60 in 6.5, and it weighed much less. Adding 1 horsepower does not make up for the CTR going off of it's old diet.
Also, the JDM CTR was designed to be rigid, as it was a track-inspired hardcore/enthusiast's car. Which is exactly why the better of the two never made it to Europe, or North America.
its like ugly vs beautiful because that eudm is ugly as fuck...and for a track car you do not want something that will completely dip into turns you want something that will hold its bodyweight and stay stable, I love the way that you brits made the eusdm version sound so beautiful and the jdm version sound so shitty which its the other way around, the eudm is ugly dips into corners nasty and its too damn bouncy from what i see...bring those to usa and see what the judgment really is
@blopeezy which can be adjusted with simple suspension upgrades costing no more than 700 dollars. - i mean, to be fair, here. and.. judge it in america? dude, fuck that shit, go to the grassroots of it's production. japan, mofugga.
@KayC2SLO yeah but why adjust them when the REAL TYPE-R already has everything done for you and that euro one is so fucking ugly euro people have the worst taste ever in making and building clean cars
@blopeezy i know, i know, i'm just trying to be level with you, 'cause i know there are other people who are too much of vaginal breeders to reply. i'm with you in the boat of JDM and TYPE-R and all that jazz, but i mean, for the benefit of the doubt.
by the way, i always hear people bitch about stiff suspension on sporty cars. ehm, duuuh.. you want comfort, buy a shopping / family car.. sports cars with soft suspension are pussywagons
wtf shaking the camera around dont ake the car look cooler u dumb ass brits ffs learn to edit so u aint got kids laying on the ground foaming out the mouth
my turbo charged imported eg6 with a type r lump will smoke this living shit out both of these hehehe power to weight ratio yes me thinks so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@yeeaaabuddy Ur car is built. where as the ctr is stock. so put the same amount of money that u put into ur car and put it in this civic and it will smoke the living shit out of u. plus your turbo wont do you so well on turns buddy =]
hahahha fake ;) the camera from inside of japagnese car during the fast lapt shows working wipers and the other camera drom the outside show them turned off!
i dont get y japs would race civics? its like americans racin focuses...idk ever since ive ridden in an sti,i seen dese cars as jokes..dey r nice to mod,but i hate dudes over here in da states tryin to show off deyre stupid civics or tcs sayin dey got sick cars,i jus dont get it...
look up touge tsuchiya driving a civic like her but i think it was spoon tuned you will see why the japs race civics and didnt you here what she say at the end the same time as a nsx with the civic see was driving
y am i retarded u stupid fuck, cuz i dont like racing civics,one of my guys race sti's,i hate wen ppl who hav si's say dey can smoke ne thin,obviously dese drivers r too sucked into the whole honda n jdm love....der r imports dat r sick,but i dont get y ppl make dese sound like dey can compete,its like americans tryin to race focuses agenst camaros,r u kiddin me? but w.e its ur style,i got my opinions n u got urs,but ur obviously retarded for gettin mad over a comment on youtube,idiot i swear.
@chitownonelove91 yeah sti's are fast out the dealer. do some work and yeah they are one heck of a car. but you have to open your mind that there are some honda's that will be its competitor. not saying every honda is fast, but there are some people who have deep pockets and know how to make their cars fast.
For the wipers comments.. Did you not hear her mention the "downpour"?? And at 2:28 and 4:40 you see the water.. Inside, oudside views are all spliced together. They're not at the same moment. I suppose its vaguely impressive, the R&D, and technology, but all of that understeer is horrible, and quite frankly, these aren't even sports cars of any sort, because the drive goes to the wrong tires.
If they didn't have the exact same tyres on, it really detracts from the comparison.
She's definitely got it on the boil, maybe a bit over. I've never really driven a fast front wheel drive car, so the technique was interesting to observe.
Haha i agree, This whole program is retarded, So is Top Gear but thats more fun to watch. These kinds of retards love everything as long as it is British. if even Auston Martin would make a ugly ass car like the Europese Honda Civic, he would even love it.
No wonder In Europe they hate Subbies, and what they call Jap crap..They have not experienced what we do here with the type r and CRXs, They are truly missing out..The Euro version sucs.SHes a very good driver..Better then me..Thats for sure..
@djsmurfyindamix Well I guess its changed then..I talked to a guy that lives in England somewhere and said he has a huge distaste for Jap cars (his words not mine) That he is this professional Ford driver and loves Cosworth and he made it seem that all peoples in Europe have a hate for Scubbies and JDM cars..
I want a Type-R ... like, NOW! Too bad over here in Australia it's priced close to a Euro Accord, meaning it's out of reach for a lot of people :( :( :(
also might i add i don't think the ukdm civic type r (fn2) should reall y be called the type r it isnt a true type r like the fd2(jdm) its more like the vti's of old i think its more used as a name wrather than a reprisentation of the engineering that has gone into it..no dubt a good car just not that hardcore
because most yanks wouldnt want it..i know there are some hardcore jdm fans in america but that wouldnt cover the fact that for most of the market in u.s.a honda needs to keep making more economical cars..basically the type r wouldnt sell that well in the u.s.a not compared to europe or japan
uk type-r has driven in wet too. if these cars would have tested in a dry track uk type-r should be closer to the jdm. because uk type-r hasn't an lsd so it's traction in wet condition is poor when compared to the jdm with lsd. but 3 second difference doesn't show that uk type-r doesn'^t earn the red 'h' badge. it's just unlucky because jdm type-r is very fast. even it's faster than lamborghini diablo on the track. at least this uk type-r is faster than the old civic type-r on most of the tracks
I really like the JDM but it runs on 100 RON fuel, where you gonna get that in the UK and how much would it cost? I think the UK Type R is getting a bad deal that it doesnt deserve too, its got far more kit than the JDM, its quicker around the track than the Golf GTI (Fifth Gears favorite Hot Hatch) its also cheaper to buy, more reliable than pretty much everything, and much better than an ST when it comes to fuel costs (that is one very thirst car)
I own a JDM CTR and you're wrong about the fuel. It can be run happily on 97 RON, but I would advise running it on 99 (any Tescos Super).
Also, the UK Type-R does deserve it's bad press. It's a Type-S in a Type-R's clothing. A masterpiece of marketing over engineering. UK Type-R's have lost their way.
3 seconds round a 1.20 lap is a lifetime. Also, in reality, the JDM car did it's lap in damp/wet conditions the UK car did it in 90% dry. On a dry lap the JDM car was actually 5 seconds faster.
The FD2 ECU is set up to run on 100 RON, so Yes it will run on 97/99 but not to its full potential. And yes 3 secs is a long time on a track, but in the real world we dont drive on a track, the FN2 was driven in the wet too, and how do you know it 'was actually 5 secs faster' on a dry lap??? speculation indeed....
this female driver is awesome on the track. the Si's are PUSHED hard all the way by her. Powerful, well made cars in both respects. Honda truly great!!!Now, if only drivers in my city drove a bit more like her, and not like an old lady ..
VBH has 'popped' and the conversation with the fat bearded prat who gets car sick is a bit pedantic to say the least. Overall, looks like the British public are yet again short changed by Honda. FOOLS!!!

I own a JDM CTR and you're wrong about the fuel. It can be run happily on 97 RON, but I would advise running it on 99 (any Tescos Super).
Also, the UK Type-R does deserve it's bad press. It's a Type-S in a Type-R's clothing. A masterpiece of marketing over engineering. UK Type-R's have lost their way.
3 seconds round a 1.20 lap is a lifetime. Also, in reality, the JDM car did it's lap in damp/wet conditions the UK car did it in 90% dry. On a dry lap the JDM car was actually 5 seconds faster.

The FD2 ECU is set up to run on 100 RON, so Yes it will run on 97/99 but not to its full potential. And yes 3 secs is a long time on a track, but in the real world we dont drive on a track, the FN2 was driven in the wet too, and how do you know it 'was actually 5 secs faster' on a dry lap??? speculation indeed....

In Japan we only have 93 Octane gasoline as much. The regular gasoline is 89. We can only find 100 at airfields... Maybe.

VBH has 'popped' and the conversation with the fat bearded prat who gets car sick is a bit pedantic to say the least. Overall, looks like the British public are yet again short changed by Honda. FOOLS!!!
