  2. Honda Japan Facelift FK8 live from yesterday

    https://www.honda.co.jp/CIVICTYPE-R/ Perhaps interesting for those wanting to see regional differences. Very tempted, if it wasn't for the current general uncertainty, virus, elections and so on my order would be in. Hope I can still order once things settle down.
  3. Track Day Newbie

    Lots of good advice. Look after car, fluids, tire pressure, keep and eye on the groups and time, listen carefully to course rules, keep hydrated, don't be hungover, remember suncream (most circuits are quite exposed), get a decent CAR helmet, you only have one brain... and don't worry about how...
  4. Refreshed 2020 Civic Type R, here it is!

    I’m for one glad for the changes and makes it much more likely to buy one. Coming from a highly modified DC2R back in the day I understand the keeping it raw and pure desire but I’m not sure it’s possible anymore. Honda sensing, I believe in Japan, where I live, at least there is a government...
  5. Phoenix Yellow 2020 Civic Type R facelift refresh model spotted testing at Nurburgring

    Interestingly Honda Japan's site on the Type R page its says sales to end shortly, please contact sales staff. Im not sure if it will not be sold in that market anymore, though I guess its more likely an imminent model change. Similarly on the standard Civic Hatchback it says only limited...
  6. Why hatred for drag racing?

    Drag racing isn't really something Im into but I think American/Japanese/Euro even Korean cars these days, we should celebrate all our car loving brethren whatever they drive and whatever part of motorsport they are into. Especially those that go to a track and do it legally! As far as drag...
  7. Honda Fit Type R Anyone?

    Honda used to make small fun affordable sporty cars. not sure if I will get one but be very very happy if they do this!
  8. Mugen Civic Type R Concept RC20GT!

    The more extreme RC20GT has been cancelled. http://www.mugen-power.com/carparts/news_product/detail/id=880&date=2019 Mugen announcement saying the project is not viable because of the cost of parts. Some of the less extreme parts for the Type R are available, sadly no intake or exhaust as of...
  9. Phoenix Yellow 2020 Civic Type R facelift refresh model spotted testing at Nurburgring

    Ready for flames.. but this was always my concern about it being sold in numbers in the US, the calls for auto and 4WD. The CTR or any Type R has never been about the 0-60 traffic light Gran Prix, its always been about focused drivers cars that out perform the specs on paper when in the hands...
  10. Dear media, Please stop bitching about the Rs looks in every single article and video.

    One part I don't understand in the "outrage" is that for example the WRX Sedan doesn't look all that different, similar honeycomb black grills in bumper, big wing, angular lights... it kind of looks how I would expect for a Japanese Brand "hot hatch/sedan" in the current design world. As I have...
  11. Japan FK8 Waiting Time

    Just in time for golden week! If you are Tokyo area would been keen to check it out sometime!
  12. Phoenix Yellow 2020 Civic Type R facelift refresh model spotted testing at Nurburgring

    My guess is the other wing is less drag or downforce to get higher speeds on a fast circuit. That or another option because everyone complains about how it looks... I think it looks pretty cool and unique in the flesh.
  13. Japan FK8 Waiting Time

    Still waiting? The wait is one reason I didn't buy.. at release was going to be 7 months to a year... outrageous. There are however quite a few very very low milage examples at Honda dealers, that is the way I would probably go now. Perhaps next gen will actually be built in Japan (for Japan and...
  14. Honda to Close UK’s CTR Factory

    Japanese made CTR would be nice. Lets hope they keep building it through the next generation! Shame for the UK, but thats what xenophobia, fear and nonsense politics will get you in the end.
  15. What other colors would you like to see Honda offer for the CTR?

    Vogue Silver Metallic!! I want the same as my old DC2R.
  16. Mugen Civic Type R Concept RC20GT!

    http://www.mugen-power.com/automobile/products/RC20GT/ Again not interested for the looks. The information in Japanese is a little more full. So it looks like other than the questionable looks side, there is an intake, exhaust, 1 way LSD, Braided Brake lines, Brake Pads, Suspension, fixed...
  17. Mugen Civic Type R Concept RC20GT!

    Slowride, you might be right, was working from memory rather than looking again. The Mugen Aero, or in this case looks to be additive pieces, has always been a little.. controversial, and odd looking, though always better in the flesh. As I said the parts Im interested in are suspension...
  18. Mugen Civic Type R Concept RC20GT!

    I want details on the other parts! Intakes, Exhaust etc. I might try to get out there tomorrow.
  19. Mugen Civic Type R Concept RC20GT!

    Hi all, Didn't see anywhere else but Mugen posted some new pictures, which I think might actually answer the mystery bumper people assumed was for the 2019-2020 around the nurburgring. The cars are pretty outrageous looking but remember the full Mugen DC2R was pretty extreme too. (but the...
