It is the rally Civic, we have always wanted
The Honda Civic Type R is without a doubt one of the most capable Compact sports car on the market. Its 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine making 320 HP and 400 Nm, he goes in 5.7 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h, runs for 271 km/h top speed and goes as talented and balanced as any car in its class. For a couple of British Tuner, but that is not enough, apparently, for a long time.
Two souped-up Type Rs debuted just on the SMMT Test Day in 2019, which will be held on the Millbrook test ground in the UK Bedfordshire. The first copy of the most exotic Civic Type R we have seen so far is with security. He answers to the name of the Project, OveRland and was built by Ralph Hosier Engineering. With its 10-centimetre-lift and ultra-wide jaw, he looks like he would be plopped directly out of a desert rally, on the English tuning show. At the front axle construction Hosier doesn ‘t change anything. The rear, however, what tinkered vigorously. Among other things, with new Longitudinal and cross-arms. There are gorgeous classic rally rims with monumental 255/55/18 BF Goodrich Tires.

Due to the massive fender flares had to be on the front apron of the Type R Hand-applied. Hosier pulls the bumper with additional side air intakes in the width. The spoiler sword of the original, he is rubbing against it without replacement. A pair of side skirts would do the robbery a few single-piece appearance quite well, but in defense of the Builder, what is mentioned that the project is quite finished yet. In the course of June, it will be ready. Without modifications to the drive train. It is, therefore, the series performance.
It looks totally different in the case of our second candidate. The Civic Type R of Team Dynamics Motorsport from Droitwich is a great track tool with a significant increase in performance. With Parts “off the shelf”, as well as some of the individual productions of the Tuner brings 400 HP and 677 Nm from the four-cylinder. Changes to the intake, the intercooler and the exhaust with a new Pipe and modified engine control for a power increase of almost 25 percent. More frightening, however, have the 277 Extra Newton meters.
More Changes are coming in the Form of a steel Flex brake lines, Eibach sport springs, adjustable stabilizers, and Team Dynamics lightweight wheels in 19 inch with Dunlop Semislicks.
“We know the Civic Type R FK8 race car very well,” says Team Dynamics Manager James Rodgers. “We wanted to show what you can get out from the standard car with a few slight modifications. The Standard car is not already so competent that it really takes a lot to bring it to the next Level.”
Honda UK asked the two companies are the vehicles for the day, however, the Japanese manufacturer has no plans for series production. You should be now, however, blown away and one of the two vehicles want to own, then you will be the builders for sure happy to help. How much will cost it, will you then have to negotiate but even.
