Agree with you stilover. Ford's have always had a p@@s poor interior and that goes for the new rs aswell. Doesn't look aggressive up for me, it's pretty much an st looking car with a slightly bigger front bumper and spoiler. Really doesn't do it for me but I like the awd aspect of it though
How much would Joe public have to plough into his car to achieve those figures?
Probably a couple of thousand with the parts we have but we didn't tune a stock car so not sure what a standard one makes with just a map or just a map and exhaust etc.

That makes the Type r a pretty damned good value car for modding

Made 397 on the rollers today after the induction kit was fitted, map hasn't been tweaked though. We have also added an oil cooler kit and new radiator both from forge, they wouldn't necessarily be needed but obviously we have a development car so we will look at everything.
What has been changed to get 397 hp??
Induction kit
Exhaust
Remap
Intercooler??
We made around 390 after a sports cat back scorpion system, forge intercooler and forge silicone boost pipes. Then it showed 397 after the induction kit was fitted. We didn't map it standard so couldn't say what it would make with just a standard map.
I love the civics, always had a place in my heart since I owned the 03 version for 3 trouble free years
M2 is an investment car it'll go up in price rather than down, I've been in talks with BMW over the last few weeks and dealers are only allowed to sell 2 think BMW are trying to make it like the 1M
As opposed to m4 where I can get 18k off list..... Weird

Here you go again, are you for real?!!
A little token comment about a the civic then once again off on a tangent telling everyone what car(s) you intend to buy and how much this and how much that....Look at me look at me!

Ive always loved a type r...the list of mods you could do to the ep's and fn's was endless...I had an 04 civic and the little beaut never went wrong...I tried to pursuade my cousin to buy a new type r but he went for a new rs in the end...
id rather have a new Sti over a bmw if I had £30,000 to spend because I think that bmw's have no value for money whatsoever...but then again I couldn't afford a car like that anyway

We looked at the new civic, but for us front wheel drive was a no go,
The RS is awesome, really happy with it, just looking at mapping options, but waiting on Syvecs to finalize there plug n play kit

Focus Rs is FWD most time when rear diff overheats
Someone at work has just bought one, had a good look around it today. Build quality looks very good! (I don't know him but I know what you're all thinking.....shocking parking lol)
There's been a few things that people have said to me over the years and at the time I thought they were being not very nice, still not sure that said words were uttered in my best interest, but it's funny how such utterances make you think and then result in a change for the better, one such utterance was "If you're not happy with your pay and conditions, seek alternative employment" I have since taken that theme through my life and used it to my advantage many many times, so I say to you haters, if you're not happy with your life situation do something about it.
Don't b1tch at people on the internet that you're jealous of and try and bring them down because that attitude will permeate throughout your own existence, a process that is obviously well under way, the words bitter and twisted spring to mind.
I personally love the type r and aim to have one in the future. Im a big fan of the type r brand and loved both my ep3s just a shame i got 3 kids and can only fit 2 in a type r. I liked the focus rs mk2 but i live on a main road and there must be 4 or 5 of them in my area and all driven by chavs that hammer the life out of them.
I got an email from
Honda yesterday saying that they did a test Round the nurburgring claiming that it's the fastest hot hatch currently on sale round there to date
