Toyo R1R update!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well folks the R1R’s are out of the bag and many ppl are starting to get them ready for the Dixie Tour. From the pix you can see how much wider the R1R are to the RE-01R’s. And i mean alot wider. From the 1st pic the tires are as follows:

RE-01R 205/45/16(16×7) vs R1R 195/50/15(15×7) vs RE-01R 205/45/16(16×7.5)

Looks like the RE-01R have to be stretched on 7.5 to match up to 195 on the R1R’s. That means really good news when the 225/45/15 comes out! And at the current moment i’m trying to find out how much these tires are in my local area.

I’ll update again soon as there is feed back after the Dixie Tour. Enjoy the pix for now!

Mugen Civic Type RR 2.2

Mugen has done it again. This time for the Tokyo Auto Salon they bring us the brand new Civic Type RR 2.2L As you can see from the pix is the Civic has many many pieces of carbon fiber. I’m sure this a way to keep the weight down. The 2.2L is delivering a whopping 260hp and 175tq. This is much more than the Mugen RR car that we just saw just over 5 months ago. Its uncertain if this car will come in production, if it does it will be coming in very limited run.

One very interesting thing is that the cluster has switched places compared to a regular Civic. The tachometer is on the top vs. on the bottom.
