Civic Type R - Technology

Best in its Class

The Civic Type R engine is supported by specially engineered parts. Air intake and exhaust manifolds have been tuned for high revolution engine output whilst throttle activation is via drive-by-wire. It is also fitted with 6-speed close ratio manual transmission gearbox with Limited Slip Differential (LSD) to perfectly match rev range and torque curve

Decreased drag force

Special surface coating as used in the Honda NSX is applied to the cylinder head port. This reduces roughness by 40%, increasing an approximate output of 2PS.
