Type R Showdown

gtir666 · 14 Feb 2006 at 23:33

Im gonna stick in a bit of red herring in, Its not a type r but itll have all em off line, theyd all keep up but struggle to pass, harder to drive consistently fast though because its turbo. Any ideas? It is a civic by the way.

Let the arguement start lol

And a civic 'type-r' lump aswell?

gtir666 · 14 Feb 2006 at 23:58

Mate, aint no type r keeping up with aerial atom! lol Or even S2 or NSX for that matter.
No this is much more controversial, well for you guys anyway, ive driven all type r's and currently drive car im talking about, which is a hoot.

Theres a clue there.

Couple of decatted DC2's versus OE DC5's.

quite interesting that, the dc2 seems to have the edge on the cornering, but totally lacks the guts on the straights....

gtir666 · 15 Feb 2006 at 00:06

No ive owned a 300+bhp gtir in the past, username has stuck since. thats not what i was reffering to though. No type r keep up with that.

Clue is, I drive one now, its made in swindon, its turbo, its civic, new clue, its company car. Just say if your bored yet and ill tel ya lol

Mic · 15 Feb 2006 at 00:07

Yea im bored. Just tell us.

A teg type r would struggle to keep up with a honda civic diesel?

gtir666 · 15 Feb 2006 at 00:15

06MY Civc sport CTDI. Yes diesel, i said its controversial, i garentee faster off line than any type r, handle better than ep3 for deffinate. **** me it goes though. Got somthing Hondas usually lack, torque!

Mic · 15 Feb 2006 at 00:17

I find that hard to beleive, but I'll gladly stand corrected.
And dont say any type-r, even if it does take a tegra, surely it wont keep up with an NSX-R.

fully star out the rude words mate or you'll get a holiday

if what your saying is true the new CTR must have some kinda time warp function in it.... i would be very very surprised if the stock civics can out preform the ITRs in the twistys, would be shooting the DC5 in the foot somewhat
