Lime Coupe Concept

The lime green Honda Civic Type R Coupe might suit someones style a little more than the hatchback version, what do you think of this concept?

Stopping Power & Aero

Fitted with big four-piston Brembo calipers and 13.8" cross drilled rotors.
It looks like the type r will be able to stop on a dime. The front bumper also provides cool air to the brakes as well. The brakes sit behind 19" alloy wheels and 235/35/ZR19 Tires designed just for the Type R.

Every aesthetic has function and form to please, from splitters and diffusers, to the spoiler.

Type R K20C1 FK2

K20C1 will be the engine code and FK2 is the new Type R Chassis.

Stamped "Earth Dreams" for direct injection, the new K20C1 has the exhaust manifold in the front, rather than the rear of the engine. Unlike other K-Series engines, possibly because of the turbo manifold cooling. The "K20C1" is reminds me of the Intergra GSR stamp "B18C1" and makes me wonder if there might be a K20C5 or K24 turbo-charged version. So far I have seen a 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 liter turbo-charged list coming from Honda for the Tenth Generation.

Every aspect of the FK2 Chassis has been studied and created to create negative drag and keep this car stuck to the road and ultimate traction control. Here is a example from wind tunnel testing.

Type R 0 - 200 kmh / 124 mph

This car should boast near 13.5 1/4 mile times and I can't imagine how fast the engine would be transplanted in to say... a Honda CRX, Del Sol or EG Hatchback model with racing slicks.

I have created this blog to showcase the Honda Civic and it's entirety, but to also provide information. You will more than likely need this information at some point in your time being a owner. I will start with something as simple as this. Here is a under the hood and under the dash fuse diagram for a 1992 to 1995 Honda Civic EG

So, trouble shooting for blown fuses in a 1992 to 1995 just became a little more simple. Thank you!

Introduction

I am very excited to see Honda jump on to the turbo-charged platform and the fact that the 2016 Civic Type R will be one of it's most powerful cars to see the street. This blog has been created to showcase the Type R. Also to hopefully share information about transplanting and swapping it's engine into older generations of Civic's such as eg's, ek's or even the ef models. I will continue to share specs, troubleshooting information and tutorials through out the blog.
