Thanks for the comments guys, I was aware that there are type r haters on here as it is a clio site!
Why was this thread moved?! I only posted it in other marques as there was already a type r thread there...
A marque (French for "brand"; pronounced /ˈmɑrk/) is a brand name, especially in the automobile industry. For example, Chevrolet and Pontiac are marques of their maker, General Motors (GM).

absolutely no steering feel whatsoever - complete joke IMO.
nice seats, driving position and gearbox though.

You can never go wrong with a Honda.
From the customer service to the build quality theres nothing out there to match it.
I will definatley be considering these when change comes!

It's a pity my car wouldn't sell.
DC5 is my target now though. Yess!

Tuning-wise, there's a ridiculous amount you can do to them.
A prime example being TDi North's car. It's running just over 1000bhp using a K24 (2.4L Accord engine) with Type R head, various other high-spec bits and a turbo. Standard car uses a K20.
It's the same shape Civic as this fellas too, EP3.
IMO, Spoon are the daddies for any Honda. Spoon make me cream. :approve:

Titanium Clio 182
Ah Chris, knew you could enlighten me with this kind of stuff mate
I only know very little on these japanese creations & all this JDM stuff!
I have heard an awesome sounding civic on the rollers a while back but god knows what had been done to it, easily over 250bhp made me want one though lol!
Can imagine lots of money getting spunked on them though!

JDM = Japanese Dolly Mixtures
Some people add a couple to the fuel every now and again. It has a kind of "NOS effect" but most dont risk it.

Excellent. In Jan when getting rid of my 182 it was a toss up between a facelift CTR in Cosmic Grey or possibly Milano Red or 197. Plumbed for the 197 in the end. CTR's had its day, and are far too common round here. I wanted something more interesting and fresh looking Lovely example though
Lovely example though

It's no more aggressive than those on previous UK Type R's really.
If it's got an aftermarket diff, now they can be a bit scary on a B road... ask Jo3y on here. I've been in his car and you can feel it under hard loads. It's a Cusco diff in his, and it's pretty aggressive! :evil:
EP3, JDM CTR, DC5 - yes (as long as there is actually steering feel)
gay ordinary ctr - no.

An EP3 is a "Gay Oridnary CTR" :S
The JDM variant just has an extra 20bhp, LSD etc etc

Your Type R vs Ford ST3 - what you reckon the outcome would be? My buddy has the ST and is having a lil cruise with his other mate in the type r later.

I'd think the ST would edge it.

There isn't that much in it tbh. Focus pulls slightly. I had a wee duel with my mate in his ST when I had my EP3
