Does this engine look pretty familar??? Another hint, the Dipstick position and shape

 

Engine has same head as f20c - but completely different setup with the ivtec - it has the roller rockers etc that the f20c has too.

Sorry guys - but that engine is another step ahead - not sure if it uses the same construction techniques as well.

oh and for those who think the type r is going to lose appeal - its 162KW!! Brembo brakes, 17inchOzs (i think)

Its a very quick car, even with FWD - the japanese rags have got their hands on it and are highly impressed.

For those interested, http://www.drive.com.au has an english review.

 

Looks like Honda's comback for toyato's Alttiza or the lexus IS300...

 

Austin_S2000,

Great pics! Thanks!

The car looks good...

 

We won't be getting the Type R in the U.S., at least not initially. We get the base and Type S, both of which are pretty cool too.

It's an impressive prototype, let's hope the final production version is somewhat close. Remember prototype S2Ks as well? Some like the rear end lights and some didn't, maybe this one will spot a couple of final production changes as well.
