I've got a forest green or somethin' like that,colored S2000 from the Type R Meeting in the Amatuer League.I was like,"don't give me the crusty green one!" and it gave it to me....bastards =P.hehe,well,anyways..it doesn't even show the name or the icon of the car in Arcade/Free Run/or 2 Player Battle ^_^.it's strange :odd:

FrustratedPalm, I don't think displacement = speed. I've seen cars in this game that can't move for the life of them, and they can't touch the turbo 2.5 in the escudo. 1800hp, baby. That's 720hp per liter.

Realistically: Pettit Racing Mazda RX-7. 20B motor. 2.0 liters, twin INI turbos, and 275hp per liter. On pump gas.
 
The Spoon Civic Type R isn't built for the 400m, Spoon built it to go fast and handle well in turns. So it's not going to be good in the 400m but it's a 🤬 fun car to drive on the complex string course and any other courses with lots of turns.

I agree with Savington, displacement defiantly doesn't = speed. To much displacement = weight and weight is not good (weight = slow). The best cars are the cars that make at least 100hp per liter and are light weight (for example the Civic Type R and the Integra Type R)
 
Have you seen the Speed World Challenge. The Civic cant keep up. It even has a few more horses than some other competitors. Liters are important. GT3 isnt perfect to real life so its hard to compare it.
 
I would prefer to use a ITR over CTR. In some opinions the CTR might have good handling and acceleration for the car but I just can't get myself to like that car all that much in the game. In real life the Si (which obviously isn't a Type-R) isn't all that bad of a car for the 160 hp it has.
 
Integras are usually way heavier than they outhg to be for the amount of torque they have. Civics are, too, but less so.
 
Litres are important. More means a car will be refuelling a lot. Otherwise the Dodge Viper would have to be faster than just about any car in the world..but it isn't.
 
12.694, that the fastest ive been able to hit in the 1/4 mile. I wish you could turbo charge it, irl you can do anything to any car if you have the $. And you cant even port and polish, bs you can p&p anything. You also cant do any wieght reduction, more bs
 
I will try it as soon as i get home, work owns me now.

I love my EK CTR. With that much power in FWD car fully customizable LSD is a must have.

You can't beat the fun of beating the NSX's in the Type R meeting with a civic.

The Spoon Civic would pretty much be ruined with forced induction of any kind. The point of Spoon's reworking the motor isn't to stress it, it's to tune it - make it produce more power naturally, with lighter and tighter internals working more efficiently. That's why their cars are so darn light. That crank can spin at 15000+rpm for the same reason - not much weight to knock around.

Plus the compression on that baby is through the roof.
But I suppose you could turbocharge it, if you really wanted.
