it would be strange for this to happen. Does anyone know of any other market where there is 2 platform versions of the Civic Type R sold officially by Honda dealers?
I can't think of any. Not even in Japan. It is one or the other.
Can anyone think of any?
its hongkong and japan, apparently the japanese likes the shape of the uk ctr and in hongkong people just selling the two model by private imports (not by honda dealers and the jdm ctr is priced very very expensive in hongkong maybe around the same price as sti and evo. if this really comes i would regret buying my car, except for the jdm type r i've heard from hongkong magazine that the suspension is even harder than the uk, and bare in mind you are paying for a hardcore "type-r" the one deserved for its name. this means no stereo system to save weight lol. There are also a few comments on the magazine that jdm version is loosing the point of a type r since when you first think of a type r it will be a 2 doors not a 4 doors sedan. official figure they tested for 0-100 was around 5.9 second (bloody fast) as i remembered! and lsd!!! y didnt the uk ctr got lsd.... i keep skidding my wheel during hard acceleration until the vsa kicks in :'(
omg!!! how true can this be??
i m willing to sell everything, to get this type R, the fn2r is shit, if this fd2r isn't detuned and has brembo calipers etc etc, i willing to pay $50k~!! please bring it
'03 Integra DC5 Type R
Wakefield Park: 1:13.047 w/ street tyres
Eastern Creek Int'l Raceway: 1:57.969 w/ street tyres
Power: 155Kw with Mugen N1 ECU
The JDM CTR is the car of my dreams, and im sure the dreams of many others. I could see it selling extremely well in Aus as long as they are no more then 50k.
i think this type r is the true type r enthusiasts type r. it will also cater for those who need the practicallity of a 4 door so in some ways it may appeal to a wider range. though the rear wing will just shout boy racer and maybe put some people off.
