I have just ordered a new Type R Honda Civic.

I drove the car a while ago, and was very pleased with its drivability, performance and handling, but was wondering if anybody had any opinions about the car, and any tuning modifications that they could recommend???

yeah, I'm also interested in this. It's either a CTR or a Cooper S.

Driven the S, I quite like it, I have a test drive of the CTR tomorrow.

Also interested in your opinions.

Thanks

My bro has a brand new CTR which he let me take for a spin. To me it felt very..nimble? I think is an appropriate word? It was deceptively fast and a very different feeling to driving a turbo. All I could hear in my head was Jeremy Clarkson going on about not changing gear when your brain told you to (from when he drove an S2000 VTEC) and I hit the limiter a couple of times..whoops. I drive a Jap 4WD Turbo'd 280bhp car (so as not to spark a row..how diplomatic) and it just felt a little boring in comparison. I wasn't impressed with the hyped up engine note when in the VTEC but I've been in VTEC's with various aftermarket air filters i.e TopFuel filters and they're an amazing sound. Overall I like the cars and am probably a little jealous of my bro as it's a tad newer than my car.
All of course IMHO!
