Honda have gone and done it, the type RR. 260bhp N/A passing emissions :shock: :shock: :shock:

Vtec in at 5100rpm.

Awesome machine by the looks of it. Dont like the air vent though!

I bet the UK won't see it unless its import and then it wil lcost a fortune.

limited run of cars. £65k.

man that looks good, but probably a little uncompromising for the road!

 

[DC5.DiBz]

Could probably just about live with it on the road if it wasnt for the sequential box.. :x Bet it shifts! wonder what uprated parts have been used, i did read the article and it said the extra power was mainly from the ECU?!!!

That is 2nd hand gt3 money, I know what I would go for....

Yeah - or newish NSX. Crazy money.

I bet you could get 260BHP out of a standard FN2 with a KPRO fully tuned ECU (when they crack it), Better / more aggressive cams / valve springs, A Gruppe M (assuming that they'll design one for the FN2) and a racing header / Cat back. This along with some good Coilovers, strut braces and uprated brakes and clutch should match the performance of this RR leaving you with enough for a CW respray and some fancy cosmatic touches and around £35,000 in your back pocket.

mmm-I could have a very nice 6R4 for that too-with plenty of spare dog boxes and diffs :lol:
