Civic twin cam-Fd2 type R(JAPAN version/market) vs USA market(civic twin cam Coupe)
** however, despite some reasons,we actually want to have the original Civic twin cam-fd2 typeR japan version IN USA-market**
test location ; Ebisu Circuit
Drivers ; ORIDO & Taneguchi-san
GLOBAL HONDA STYLE INTERNATIONAL(FEELS)
Both are having light tune-up,both exterior/interior icluding Samco-radiator,break hard, dampers,ecu etc! however it is not equal performances between them.,civic japan have a LSD+18 rims ,Civic usa is without LSD and only uses 17 rims(standard) in this test.
however....both are nice as well as you love BANZAI-CIVIC,the best front drive cars.

  • I will pay for a 30K Civic. As long as it has a red valve cover.

    Reason JDM Hondas don't make it to the U.S. is because they are too sporty they will outperform some of the domestics.

  • @sdlausen the problem here is that my country hate's cars with a lot off hp :(

    when you got one, you must pay insurance, no problem with that, but its to much.

    i got a cynos now, not much hp and i pay over 1000 euro for insurance.

    when i buy something like a s2000 it will be to much :(

    i'm born on the wrong side of the sea ;)

    but we still can tune our engine's ( what they not know, we don't got to pay) :D

    and indeed we all love cars, it's like we all love woman.

  • @Arai4lpinestars and emissions regulations aren't too good for those high revving 4's, that's why the celica died as well..

  • Whered you get this video? I want a copy! NOW!

  • if u want a type r, just buy a teg and do a head swap, unless it was a type R or GSR already. The only differences between the two b18c's in those two trims were some forged and balanced bits that probably only net you a little bit more reliability beyond 7000rpm. Also, the GSR was pre OBD-II. Or if you want it in your civic, put the b18c in your civic. simple enough, Honda made nearly everything plug and play, save for a hasport mount here and there and some ecu swapping or chipping.

  • the reason why in North America we don't get Type R's anymore is because it's meant for racing. The only Type R we got was the 97-01 integra type R

  • Talk shit on type r all you want... seen it on track? Beat the r34 and rx7 times at a track in japan.... all stock also... type r has awesome tuning it.

  • and why didn't they get the US one w/ LSD??

  • why is someone saying they don't sell Civic R's here in the states because no one wants to pay30k for a barebone civic??? They're pretty much the same as the Integra R..they both have full interior and just about everything as a standard civic or integra.

  • @MojaveOutlander who wants to spend over a mill to buy a fucking car? Honda probably makes more money than bugatti because no one wants to buy a shitty ugly ass car
