Three Civic Type Rs and a supercharged NSX. :)

These four rides are from a few years ago and now I'm lucky enough to do my co-op there. :)

Not to be a dick. But none of those yellow ones are Type R's.

[revival]

:D I didn't tell you what's under the hood now did I?

B18C5 in all.

The first one is the Frankenstein.
The second is supercharged.
The third is...Ermm... NA... I think... But that photo was taken when it was converted to a racer for track use. So... Ermm... I don't know what's up with the third one really. :pfft:

Dont' you think the yellow paint jobs are craptastic?

[GT40FIED]

Alright...I'm lost. What's making history here exactly?

[Mischief]

i'm not going to lie, they're all pretty ugly

[AkimboStylee]

it seems like the first on recieved the CF hood last minute, look at the grill and see the paint from an obviously riced out ek

[revival]

Well GT40FIED, this was quite a while ago. QUITE. So, during that time it was still new.

Yeah the firt one did receive that hood last minute. The original paintjob looked like CRAP.

And YES the Civics wer FUGLY with the exception of the NSX--which was nice. :)

I agree. I was looking hard to see the authenticity of the civics.

Revival, you know how I am. I'm a straight up kind of guy. So please dont be offended if I shed a little light on you.....

TypeR is a chassis code, not a motor code. Simply dropping an R motor doesnt mean the car becomes "TypeR" car. It simply means that the car has an R motor, otherwise, I can just as easily say that I have an ITR since I do have a JDM ITR motor in my Teg. But I know that it is not the case.

EK9 is the civic typeR chassis code from 96-00.... JDM only. USDM never received an EK chassis. The 96-00 hatchbacks are actually EJ6. The were no CTR's made during the latter years although the EG chassis was born between 92-95, EG6 being the most popular having that B16.
