Twenty-five years separate the first and the most recent R-badged Honda models. Yup, a quarter of a century of high-performance development stands between the original NSX-R and the latest Civic Type R. Just how different are they?
The technical improvements are immediately evident in the two cars’ power outputs. In period, Honda claimed 276bhp for the NSX-R’s charismatic 3.0-litre V6, but legend has it that was more like 300bhp-plus. This was impressive for an early 1990s supercar, but these days the NSX-R has to give best to the Civic Type R, which boasts 316bhp from a four-cylinder turbo drivetrain clothed in an eminently sensible four-seater hatchback body.
The Civic’s day-to-day usability extends to a special Comfort chassis mode, while there’s a front limited-slip diff plus stupendous brakes and steering. Its family car roots are clear – in stark contrast to the NSX-R, which took the already faintly ridiculous, mid-engined NSX as its base and then took the slightly berserk route. More than 100kg of ‘unnecessary’ components such as sound deadening were stripped out, and “lightness added” with the likes of Recaro carbon-Kevlar bucket seats. The result was a 1,230kg missile.
