Mugen Motorsports developed an upgraded version of the JDM Civic Type R, with a sport exhaust system and engine tuning, special Mugen Grille, and anti-roll bars for pro racing activities. Note: JDM (Japanese Domestic Model), EDM (European Domestic Model). Performance (all figures are manufacturer claims) Based on Honda literature, this facelifted (FL) model was targeted at addressing customers' and critics' feedback such as understeer on the limit (due to the front MacPherson strut setup), numb steering response and lack of low-end torque. In 2003, the EP3 was updated with many improvements вЂ“ revised EPS with quicker steering, revised suspension settings, projector headlamps (JDM came equipped with halogens only while the EDM came with an option for HIDs with self-leveling motors), lighter clutch and flywheel assembly, etc. The EDM has more relaxed gear ratios and some high rpm torque traded for low rpm torque compared to the JDM. The JDM EP3 was also available in the traditional Type R Championship White while the EDM was not. All of the Japan-spec K20A Type R powertrains were built in Japan and shipped to the Swindon plant to be installed in the Japan-spec Type-R EP3. Other differences of the JDM model included a more track-oriented chassis/undercarriage settings as compared to the European model as well as a more powerful engine having a power output of 215В PS (158В kW 212В hp) (designated K20A) had a fully balanced crankshaft assembly with the different intake manifold, exhaust manifold, higher-lift camshafts, higher-compression pistons, chrome-moly flywheel and ECU programming. However, Honda marketed a JDM ( Japanese domestic market) version of the EP3 (which was exclusively manufactured in Swindon, UK and was shipped to Japan), which retained the highly renowned helical LSD similar to that of the EK9 and red Recaro race-seats. This European Domestic Market Civic Type R featured a 200В PS (147В kW 197В hp) 2.0-liter i-VTEC engine (K20A2) and the regular Type R treatment of seam welding, close-ratio 6-speed transmission and upgraded brakes, but did not include some of the other higher-end features, such as the helical LSD and red Recaro race-seats, that were standard on the EK9. In 2001, Honda introduced the next generation of the Civic Type R as a unique 3-door hatchback to the UK market, which was manufactured in Swindon, England. In 1999, Honda tuning company Spoon Sports designed a N1 racing version of the Type R that had the B16B engine redline increased from 8,400В rpm to 11,000В rpm. Production of the EK9 Civic Type R totalled 16,000 units. The Type Rx was the final model of the EK9 generation. The Type Rx model introduced in 1999 was given a CD player, body-colored retractable electric door mirrors, power windows, auto air conditioning, keyless entry unlock system, aluminium sports pedals, and a carbon type centre panel.

It came with steel wheels, the standard grey EK interior, manual windows, no a/c and without any other creature comforts. In 1998, the Civic Type R Motor Sports edition was introduced. The EK9 could attain a top speed of 225В km/h (140В mph). Performance figures include a 0вЂ“97В km/h (0вЂ“60В mph) acceleration time of 6.7 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 15.3 seconds. The EK9 was only available for sale in Japan. The interior featured red RECARO bucket seats, red door cards, red Type R floor mats, a titanium shift knob, and a Momo leather-wrapped steering wheel. For the first time, a strategically seam welded monocoque chassis was used to improve chassis rigidity. The B16B engine boasted one of the highest power output per liter of all time for a naturally aspirated engine with 185В PS (136В kW 182В hp) at 8,200 rpm and 160В Nв‹…m (118В lbв‹…ft) at 7,500 rpm of torque from 1.6В L (1,595В cc) of displacement. The EK9 shared many characteristics with the Integra Type R DC2/JDM DB8 such as omission of sound deadening and other weight reduction measures, a hand-ported B16B engine, front helical limited-slip differential and a Close-ratio transmission. The first Civic to receive the Type R badge was introduced on August 19, 1997, as the EK9.
