FG Civic Si vs Euro Civic Type R
What do you think is faster. I know the obvious answer is the type-R, but the si is no slouch and they basically have the same engine. I think that the si is a lot closer than most would think.
Any thoughts?

Re: FG Civic Si vs Euro Civic Type R
hmm i have to side with kidnkorner on the suspension.
torsion beams are used on 1970's volkswagens and curent mini-vans.
and we have macpherson's or however you spell it.
so in my eyes it seems that the si handles better lol

Re: FG Civic Si vs Euro Civic Type R
how much does the euro ctr weigh? they have similar power, with the si having better handling as already mentioned. unless the ctr is significantly lighter, the si should be all-around faster.

Re: FG Civic Si vs Euro Civic Type R
It would be very nice for some media source or tuner company to get all 3 on a track. USDM Si, Euro R, JDM R, though we do know who will finish 1st.
