About the Civic Type R 2.0 K20A (200 PS) FWD
The EP3 was the first Civic Type R sold outside Japan, and it set the template for everything that followed. 200 PS from the K20A - no turbo, no supercharger, just a high-revving naturally aspirated four channeled through a six-speed manual. Built in Swindon and exported back to Japan, it was the Type R most Europeans could actually buy. The DC5 Integra Type R stole the headlines at home. But the EP3 started the conversation everywhere else.
