Set to go sale in the UK in the third quarter of the year, the Mugen-enhanced Civic Type-R comes with a four-cylinder, 2.0-liter i-VTEC engine that gets a minimum 200 horsepower, as well as uprated shocks and springs and Mugen’s new ‘I-TCMS’ tire monitoring system. Brembo has also been called in to supply huge 12.6in slotted discs up front and 11.1in units in the rear. Euro-spec Mugen Civic Type-R engineers have removed the rear seats and added lighter carbon-fiber accessories. New lightweight 18in alloys and a pair of Recaro bucket seats also make the cut.
