Can you list down what is needed for a Civic Ek4 Vti-R hatch to beat a Type R with[airfilter] .

I need the right list of mods, brand name if u want.

I've done a search but can't find anything like this, just how to make it quicker etc.

If not beat a Type R, keeping up is good enough.

how do you define "beat"?

Beat in a drag? beat in around a circuit? be more specific.

There is no "special list" that will magically make u beat a type R.
If your talking drags, it largely depends on your and the type R drivers skill.. launch reaction time means alot...

if your after a quick fix... AVO stage 1 or 2 turbo kit and you'll be running some quick 1/4 mile times and *kill* that type R... :rolleyes:

If not beat a Type R, keeping up is good enough.

For an EK4 VtiR to convincingly beat a Type R, do this...
#1 – Lightweight flywheel
#2 – Heavy duty clutch
#3 – Lower final drive & LSD
#4 – Intake (CAI that actually works. Ingen, AEM, Mugen)
#5 – Header + cat + cat-back system (As best you can afford)
#6 – Spec C camshafts / valve springs / adjustable cam pulleys / oil pump gear / fuel pump / fuel pressure regulator / ECU / dyno tuning.
Power output: 116~118kw @ wheels (Dyno dynamics – 4F shootout)

For even better all round performance, add a 1.8L stroker kit & change the camshafts to Spec B's.

To "just" keep up, use Type R cams as drop in's with VAFC II or similar.
You'll still need a fuel pump & regulator.

I would have to agree with J-Mun. Turbocharging your current engine or do an engine swap. Doing an engine swap will allow you to aim for bigger HP's in future which will give you more in the end than what you have now.
But working on yours is also more than enough to beat a Type R no problems.
Again it always comes down to $$$$

how about thinner headgasket ? head pore and polish? Bigger intake manifold? how big final drive ? Must be a Spec C? can't be spec A or B? i heard that spec B is not very good on civic but good on dc2, dun know about C tho. thx

A stock R maybe! But an ITR with same mods as you and the right tuning will allways be ahead of you in power :S
You need to take advantage of your chasiss by dropping as much weight as possible.
You should then look into your tranny and add a light weight flywheel/4.785 final drive and LSD.
Power wise you already have a head that flows comparably well compared to the R's. Your main weakness is your lack of displacement.
I would recomend you source a second hand R block,mate that to your head and drop some CTR/ITR cams with ITR valve train, Tune with Hondata and you'll beat R's daily and twice on Sunday.
Sorry about the rant.

i only have one advice for u if u wanna beat a type R, DRUG THE DRIVER or cut off his foot so cant clutch and change gears cause thats the onli way u will beta him unless u spend major cash on ur car which is not worth it.

SiR JDM
27-03-2005, 02:26 PM
I agree entirely with Joe. Type R internals, Intake Manifold and TB (even tho its a very debatable mod as to where the gains lie, or even if they exist), you will still be down .2 litres on displacement, which means torque.

Use the lightweight chassis to your advantage and diet as best you can. Again, like Joe said, a light weight flywheel (4kg range) and a nice FD (ITR gearbox, replace gears etc).
Use your NA car to its potential. Create a nice, free-flowing air system. Direct Cold Air Intake (create a direct cold air feed, whilst sheilding as much excess hot air from the engine bay as possible), nicely matched H/E setup and then a proper ECU tune and you will see considerate gains.

remove your air filter element and the box below the front left rail and replace it with a 3 inch flex piping and make it run down to the front bar to an opening so the engine only gets cold air from out side.

then knock the guts out of your cattelack conveter and run a straight through pipe through the cattelack converter.

then get $800 and buy a TODA flywheel.

and last of all when taking off release the clutch till it's slightly grabbing and rev the car to 8000rpm taking off trying to limit wheel spin ( dont ride it to much, baisically it t6ake a few times to get use to it.

Due to the power increase, you need to upgrade your brake system if you drive very hard. If you want to improve your handling, you may step by step to upgrade your car. Such as, coilover, stru. bar, LSD..etc.

seriously, if u wanna beat a type r get a gtr or something. or go for k20a engine swap,or a fully built engine for turbo. because in the end the type-r will still own u.

like if ur car is modded lets say, cams, exhaust and the usual upgrades and maybe a bit more. ull definately beat the type -r, but a stock one that is.

and i dont think there are many stock type-r, [Not many..lol], and if the type r had engine work it would also own u, so in the end your never gonna win the battle.

unless if u go engine swap, turbo, or get a car that can beat it.

and also you'll have to upgrade brakes, sussy and etc.

spoondc2
15-09-2005, 04:06 PM
Just drive better..... you could never beat a type-r if the guy has the same skills like you. The reasons why it's that hard to beat a type-r is the good balance setup by the factory, but not on a civic non R

You could do mods on your civic but the type-r could do the same thing also, so just try to squeeze out everything on your car and you'll be fast enough no matter what car are you driving. This is my thoughts

very true !!!!! personal experience, if u can drive your car to the 100% of its potential, u will beat a tpre-r with a lesser driver(someone that can't drive its type r to its max potential). At the end of the day, all it comes down to is driving skill.

This would have sounded stupid to me 4 years ago... but ive grown with this car.. its been with me hell and back.... never broken down.. i pretty much know every bolt and screw on it.........

ill wait until the engine blows and get a b18c or somthing... but i dont think i can ever blow this b16a2......... it is stronger than ever...........

If i wanted to beat an R u definitly need more displacement...... unless u have some kick us engine..

cheapest way to do it!! B20 /crvtec........ could be done under 2k.... and you should beat a r.......... or atleast keep up with it........

like someone said, u can buy speed but u can't buy skill.
actually ek4 is good enough with b16a2 engine. u should mod for suspension better than power because u can't drive fast all the time, got a speed limited on the street.
if u really want beat type r you should beat it on a track by your skill, this will save your money and improve yourself.

And i also know a person who works at home who would drop the engine out and put it back in for $250......

If u get him to drop it out.. and u make the changes to the engine it would cost you under 2k........



and when comparing in pricing the price of a b18c5 would set you back over 3 k to begin with..

I was level with the DC2R with EK4 and these mods.
Full intake, 4-1 header, full exhaust, ITR transmission with LSD.
But i couldnt pull away from it.

yeah you'd be surprised how a mildly modded B16 in a civic can keep up with a DC2-R.. have had a few rolling runs with a stock ITR on the freeway and I got past him every time.. from standing it was very even.

I think it must come down to driver.. but one night I had the opportunity to 'test-drive' a bone-stock 01 DC2-R with only 40,000kms.. raced a EG with B16A with TODA B's (untuned) and JUST lost !! I was amazed and stoked for the civic cause I was hammering the ITR at rev-limit etc.

but anyway yeh type R speed is not THAT hard to reach with a hybrid.. swap the type R B18C into your civic and chop all.

This was what I had on my civic to beat type-Rs (even those with air filter and exhaust)

Spoon Cams, Springs, Cam Gears and Gasket and twin core radiator, earls oil cooler
Apexi Power FC, Filter with cold air intake
Fujitsubo 4-2-1 headers, high flow cat, Buddy Club spec 2/Spoon N1 exhaust
Tein HA coilovers, Cusco Struct Braces
Brake upgrades include endless pads, and brake lines, cusco master cylinder
It still had stock internals

This setup will beat type-Rs and I've never been scared of one....
Was planning for a final drive and LSD, that will kill type-R's with no problem
Mind you, it's kind of scary when I had the cams in coz for a tiny 1.6L,...I was still accelerating at full song going into turn 2 at wakefield (stockies will know their acceleration has already started to tail off)
Well, I rev all the way to 9,000 for gear change (rev cuts at 9,500-9700, forgotten the exact setting)
Took awhile to get the overall balance right too
It was worth it just to see those 4WD turbos and skylines getting their arse wasted at wakefield
But sold the car to go overseas, so it's not in my possession anymore...if i did,...i reckon the final gear, LSD would be in with an upcoming spoon engine (all the way to 11,000rpm)!!!!

No Ecu or resleeving?

And dont u have to get it engineeered?

Thats easily over 2k if u include the 1600

other thing su may consider:

bigger radiator
And mabe a CRV fuel pump to provide sufficent fuel to teh engine

How much did this setup cost you Cyrus??

I bought the car with most of the suspension and drivetrain parts in...
I guess if u talking of the overall package...cost me about 22k including the car though i am estimating only....I guess just have to say, there was never really a set budget,...I spend if I needed to.....

You know about this green civic as in this green civic or you know about EK4
If u really know this civic as in this particular,..I can tell u, the car went a long way since the previous owner:cool:

If it's just EK4 in general,..this engine obviously can't get to 11,000rpm...if it could,...,why the heck am I spending on a spoon engine for..;)

I thought a VTi-R hatch would already be getting pretty close to DC2R straight line performance?
I mean, with good extractors, exhaust, CAI, bigger TB, intake manifold and a tune it should beat a ITR?

bennjamin
08-03-2006, 04:03 PM
no ithink it would need a few more mods transmission wise etc.

Still , this thread is yonks old.

Its proven - without major mods to a vtir ( both EK or DC variant) they will not beat a type R version of the same car.
