Jay2ohh Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 i know they made the race base version but surely not like that ? it literally has nothing in can see rusty things and them seats are not the blue recaro interiors ... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Civic-EK9-Type-RX-B20-Road-legal-track-car-Integra-PX-SWAP-R-VTI-B18-Spoon-/331011004951?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4d11cb1a17 is he wanting ££ for something that its not?

Spoon_tuned Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 They are rare cars the rx type r and i'm not sure wether they even had carpets from new. Quote
PaulStarletSR Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 uv answered your own question without postin if uv read the letter on his sale ad Quote
loguey Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Pretty sure the lightweight model came with carpets and a full interior but it was missing creature comforts, A/C leccy windows and i dont think they even came with power steering.The RX was more for your money, alloy pedals, tints and a few other special bits. It was kinda a last hurrah for the dc2(not sure if they did an ek9 rx?) Quote
MARC MOSS Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Nice manifold lol and the bolt hanging out is an interesting mod Edited September 4, 2013 by MARC MOSS Quote
kavan-k Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Yeah they did an ek rx, rare to find tho! No luxuries at all lol im all for toyotas but the ek9 type r is a hell of a car! My mate had one and it was an animal! Easy the best type r out there imo Quote
Starlet-Joshy Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 The light weight model came with seats and carpet, But no air con, abs, windy windows and no luxuries lol, Not a great model (Imo) , also didnt come with recaro's as standard!, Tbf if you have just spent 6k on a ek9, why the hell would you put shitty bucket seats in?, At least invest in some decent seats lol.

morgey Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Light weight glass? rumours have it Type R's have thinner glass than normal models. whether its true or not isn't know and most people joke about it lol Quote
StarletSr? Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 rumours have it Type R's have thinner glass than normal models. whether its true or not isn't know and most people joke about it lolI see haha thanks never new that! I wonder if it is true lol Quote
Jay2ohh Posted September 4, 2013 Author Posted September 4, 2013 I just didn't know if it was one of them people trying to say basically a stripped out car was worth loads, I know they did a race base but not looking like that :s they had sporty recaro style seats in blue, not them ones tho there universal eBay specials I should know I had some back in the day an for the glass god knows. Just wondered if the lad was trying to sell a knock off for a silly price Quote
kavan-k Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) rumours have it Type R's have thinner glass than normal models. whether its true or not isn't know and most people joke about it lolThey do indeed, front window i know is fact anyway! Mate had to replace his but autoglass had to get them and it was 500+! So a standard one went in instead lol. Dunno about the other windows but! Edited September 4, 2013 by kavan-k Quote
jimbolina25 Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 came with thinner glass in the windows, no sound proofing, steel wheels, everything that was dead weight was removed and there was a little more seam welding then even on the type r. I think they're actually illegal on the roads in malta due to them beeing deemed a little OTT. Quote
TimD Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 Shit box, anyone who buys this thinking they get a "special" car is very special indeed. Quote
Addymk2 Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 They do indeed, front window i know is fact anyway! Mate had to replace his but autoglass had to get them and it was 500+! So a standard one went in instead lol. Dunno about the other windows but!DC2s are the same, my mate shit himself when he cracked his screen and got the quote lol Quote
morgey Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Mitsi cyborg windscreens Are £1200, my mate went though a stint of breaking 3 within the same amount of months, they then limited him to 1 a year Quote
Addymk2 Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Haha that's a right effort, I can't see how they justify a price like that for a screen tbh, it's mental! Suppose its just because of the sheer rarity of them, there's only 3 1985 Civic GTs left on the road, had the windscreen changed the other day and auto glass have 9 left in UK stock! Quote
morgey Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 They need importing as they are tinted glass and only misti JP sells them. if you werent that bothered you could use proton satria or normal colt windows but i suppose you pay for insurance on a imported car you want it replaced with Oem stuff! And if i were you id be buying up a couple of them as spares haha Quote
Glanza-Ben Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 The bloke told me the blue recaros where removed and these expensive ones were fitted as there fia approved for the track my reply was bollocks I also asked what's goin on with the bolts and studs on the mani his reply was they were half way threw fitting in and decided to take the picture lol Quote
jambo Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Changing from a 5stud in a normal EK9 to a 4 stud on this to save a bit of weight , Thats Ridicularse Quote
