March 29, 200718 yr Press Release Photo Gallery A higher compression ratio and improved breathing efficiency help the naturally-aspirated K20A 2.0-liter i-VTEC engine output a maximum of 165kW (221 HP) at 8,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 215Nm (158 lb-ft) at 6,100 rpm. A close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission is matched to the Type R engine. The highly rigid Civic body and its advanced layout serves as the basis for an even more highly rigid, yet lightweight Type R body. Measures to enhance body rigidity while reducing weight have translated into a body that is 50% more rigid than in the Integra Type R production model sold between 2001 and 2006. Specially tuned suspension, high performance 18-inch tires, a torque-sensitive helical limited slip differential, large disc brakes for improved fade resistance and other performance-enhancing features contribute to higher cornering performance and stability for an exciting, racecar-like driving experience. From what I've read, this CTR is as fast or faster than an S2000 around the track. Now if only they would bring it over here.
March 29, 200718 yr Author their Civic is the CSX? On the contrary, the CSX uses the JDM bumpers/lights.

March 30, 200718 yr because you need something...anything.... to get going... it's the meat down low that matters.... and when there is plenty of it... it's easier to get around......
March 30, 200718 yr It's a bit less ugly than our CVCC. This engine is $h! for the city, 8k to reach max hp?? Efficient my ass. Well that's a part fo Honda's stupidity, motorcycle motors in cars.
