4 door type r

[whitestivo]

today i was trailing a 4 door civic type r. the fd2 shape it think.

now, is this possible?

if it was custom, it was well done, it had black on underside of rear spoiler, and white on rest.

had underbody diffuser

sides of rear bumper were tailored in nicely

ran on 17' black wheels with red h in the middle

ran away from me in 2nd, so something reasonable under the bonnet?

is it possible a 4 door type r?

I thought they were Japan only.

except for the wheels, that is exact copy

notice the black on the rear spoiler, and the dishing in the front and rear spoilers

and it was at sunnybank, so if anywhere had one

what is weight compared to two door aussie delivered tardy 1380kg

Sound like someone is getting ideas.

[whitestivo]

so someone tell me how it got here, i didn't think it was possible either.

no way was it not a type r, it went ballistic right before the sportivo 6000rpm, and changing gear into second, he was off

or it could have been a normal civic type-r'd and with a bolt on turbo kit hanging off the donk

I remember reading on OzHonda, that someone from the UK.. was moving to the Gold Coast and was bringing in their FD2R with them. So that might be the one.

Here's the article:

Private import, if it is an import...

Can't grey import them.

It's a real FD2R. The guy moved here with his family. It's exactly as whtiestivo describes it:

Black/CF middle piece on the rear spoiler, white, with gunmetal rims

[whitestivo]

that's it, that's the rims. taht's the car.

man, four door type r. i've always said i'd get a type r if they made it in a four door. sad.

as one article states, you wonder if it's real or not, and i had a very intense look at it.

if it was a turbo, it would not have hit lift/vtec around the same time as mine. and he changed gear after i did.

I reckon the FD2R looks heaps more aggressive than the FN2R.. The triangular parts don't quite do it for me..

[chicaboo]

As phat as the FD2R is, it's got poor visibility in the front with those swoopy A pillars.

[whitestivo]

i would buy one if same price as current type r

[whitestivo]

if i'd known it was the only one in the coutry, i could have car jacked him on kessels road

brilliant...:) they are a beautiful car

Apparently there are a total of 4 FD2R's in Australia. However I think the other 3 are not registered for street-use.
