Mugen Civic Dominator

Mugen has presented the Civic Dominator at the Tokyo Auto Salon: the Mugen Prototype Civic Dominator, a real bomb that only Mugen could have made.

This Dominator has a Tune KA20 + Supercharger engine with a displacement of 2.0l and it develops more than 300bhp, hooked up to a 6-speed manual gearbox.

The brakes are from Brembo:
Pad : Type Competion
Rotor / FR : Active Gate Brake Rotors
Rotor /RR : 5-Slits Brake Rotors
Hose : Micro mesh brake lines.

Tyres and rims have these specifications:
Rims : 18 in X 8.0 JJ Forged Alloy Wheel "GP"
Tyres : 225 x 40ZR18 (Michelin).

For the aerodynamics, we have:
Front Bumper : Carbon Flat under floor bumper
Rear Diffuser : Carbon Rear Diffuser
Rear Wing : Carbon Active control rear wing.

It's Mugen's speciality to bring together power, technology and beauty, and this Civic Dominator proves that the manufacturer excells in this. Dressed in red, more specifically Fire Cracker Red, this monster sits on Michelin wheels that look the part on this Civic. The small yellow line really adds to the looks too. As stated above, the Civic has been kitted with body elements made out of carbon fibre, and one of the most important elements concerning the body kit is that the rear wing is adjustable to get the best performance and handling out of the Dominator. Last but not least is the central double exhaust, just like on the prettiest 2 and 4-wheeled vehicles.

We can say that this is a truly magnificent creation by Mugen...

8th Generation Civic Sedan in Singapore

The new Honda Civic FD is already in Singapore. I have seen quite a few on the roads of Singapore.

Labeled the 'Advanced Dynamic Sedan', the new Civic is available in two specifications;

Honda Civic 1.8L
- New 4 cylinder 16V chain driven SOHC i-VTEC engine (after 17 years) with a DBW (drive-by-wire) system.

Honda Civic 2.0L
- 4 cylinder 16V chain driven DOHC i-VTEC engine

Both come:
- a Multi-tiered dashboard display that positions the speedometer, and other frequently checked displays on an upper tier near the driver's line of sight for minimum eye movement while driving, whereas the tachometer, and other gauges are located on the lower tier.
- 5 speed automatic gearbox.
- Dual airbags, active headrest and ABS. However, the Civic 2.0L comes with extra side airbags.

Senior Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer of Honda Motor Co., Ltd.'s Asia-Oceania operations and also Asian Honda Motor Co., Ltd.'s President and Chief Executive Officer, Satoshi Toshida (He will take over as Chief Operating Officer of Honda Motor's global power products' operations on 1 April 2006):
"For many of our customers, the Civic defines Honda. When it was first introduced 34 years ago, the Civic quickly became Honda's first mass market automobile sold on a global scale. To date, over 16 million customers in some 160 countries have purchased it. Our goal for each new generation of the Civic is to achieve substantive improvements in all measures of an automobile's value, including driving performance, fuel economy, safety, environmental friendliness and packaging. In so doing, we want to ensure that each new generation of the Civic immediately sets a new, global benchmark for its category".

But too bad Singapore Kah Motor did not bring in the much more nicer Civic Si.

V-AFC II - VTEC Air/Fuel Controller

The highly anticipated release of the new A'PEX VAFC II marks a new revolution in piggy-back style fuel controllers. Building upon the world wide success of the previous VAFC, the new VAFC II has taken the proven technology of the last VAFC to the next level. For optimal fuel control, the VAFC now allows for 12 point fuel manipulation in 100 RPM increments. The VAFC II also allows for the VTEC engagement point to be manipulated from 3000-7000 RPM, including the new i-VTEC systems. The redesigned case features a center push button with a rotating outer switch for easy and precise data input. To protect data maps from being tampered with, the new VAFC II features a password protection system.

Like the Super AFC II, the VAFC II displays data in three different modes: Numerical, analog, and graph. Numerical mode allows the user to monitor up to four different values in numerical format and also shows peak hold values on demand. The analog mode displays up to two values in an easy to read meter style display. Peak hold is included in analog mode as well. The graph mode offers real time graph plotting with a built in ghost map trace feature. The graph can relay movement up to 60 seconds.


New Features Include:

- New case design with center push button and rotating outer switch
- VTEC engagement control from 3000-7000 RPM in 100 RPM increments
- 12 point fuel control for LOW and HIGH VTEC maps (total of 24 points)
- i-VTEC compliant
- Monitor i-VTEC VVT movement in real time
- Password protection
- Red LED light indicated cam switchover point
- EEPROM chip for maximum data storage
- VTEC Match/Unmatch correction for smooth VTEC engagement modification
- Versatile mounting bracket




CONCEPT:
Piggyback Fuel Computer with Integrated VTEC Controller

CHARACTERISTICS:
Modifies manifold pressure signal and alters VTEC engagement point on Honda VTEC engines; Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD).

APEXI RSM For Honda VTEC Cars

The new Rev/Speed Meter GP is a complete multi function measuring device designed to measure and monitor data such as vehicle speed, engine RPM, and elapsed times. However, the strength of the new unit lies in its differences. Probably the most obvious being its completely redesigned look. This new aesthetically pleasing model was crafted to match the likes of other highly popular A'PEX electronics such as the VAFC (VTEC Controller) and the AVCR (Boost Controller). The new screen utilizes the easy to read VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) with built in light sensor used in many of A'PEX's line up.

The new unit also delivers a host of new functions. Standard features include: Engine RPM, Vehicle Speed, Travel Distance, and Battery Voltage (All which can be displayed in real time graph mode, numerical mode, or analogue mode; 1-4 channels at a time.), Peak Hold, Replay (With 60 second playback.), Speed Limiter Cut, 0-100m, 200m, 400m times with trap speed, 0-100km/h, 200km/h, 300km/h times, 100km/h, 200km/h, 300km/h E0 times, user defined Mid Range Acceleration, Stop Watch functions, Best Time Memory, RPM Warning, Speed Warning, RPM and Speed Outputs (For external devices requiring an RPM or speed signal.), Tire Size Correction (For acceleration and timing accuracy.), and Vehicle weight input.

One of the most exiting of the new features is the option to utilize the revolutionary A'PEX G-Sensor (Sold separately). The G Sensor allows the unit to measure G forces in 4-way front/rear/left/right directions. This data can be plotted in a graph display to map acceleration characteristics and lateral G's on the race track, or used in an array of new features including: Highly accurate 100m/200m/400m times with trap speed and wheel-spin correction, Horsepower Calculation, and Loss Power Calculation. By taking advantage of the optional G Sensor, the user can produce extremely accurate acceleration measurements. Usually, when measuring acceleration times using the speed sensor signal alone, the meter will end measurement too early (shorter distance) due to wheel-spin. Using the G Sensor modifies the speed sensor signal, compensating for wheel-spin and producing impeccably accurate acceleration times.
CONCEPT: Multifunction monitoring and timing device CHARACTERISTICS: Variety of functions such as tach, speed, 0-400m time, etcEin one unit.

2006 Honda Civic Type R Concept

When Honda unveils a new sports concept there is always a sense of anticipation and the new Civic Type R is no exception. To please all its fans, Honda engineers have designed a 'superhatch' to deliver blistering performance from the same power output as the previous incarnation (200 bhp). The aggressive, lower and wider-looking body encases a new 2.0 liter engine and the model, built in Britain, will go on sale in early 2007 priced around £18,000.

What is a Type R?

The Type R name was introduced by Honda Motorcycles, where the letter R was added to conventional bike names to indicate a performance derivative. For example, the CB – a standard 4-cylinder across-the-frame bike – became the CB-R, a sporting model.

One of the earliest Type R cars was the Honda NSX-R, a stripped-down, lightweight version of the NSX supercar. This was developed in response to claims the NSX did not have enough power to compete with rival cars from Porsche and Ferrari. The key factor in this argument – and a point proved by the NSX-R – was the importance of the power to weight ratio.


Philosophy

The Type R philosophy is not about building the most powerful, or fastest car in the world. It is about creating a car that provides a well-engineered, but exciting driving experience. To offer this, every Type R needs to have certain key characteristics:

Racing: An exhilarating driving experience similar to that felt when piloting a racing car.

Involvement: High levels of feedback and involvement in terms of sound, steering response and handling. The driver should feel part of the machine.

Not just speed: Going fast is part of the Type R experience, but not everything. The Type R should have above average levels of performance in gear change quality, braking, steering and handling.

Pure: The driving experience should not be diluted or interfered with by driving aids or sound proofing that could detract from the driver’s involvement.

Stripped-out: A Type R is not equipped with luxuries such as satellite navigation, hands-free telephones or leather upholstery. It should look and feel like a racing car.

Engineering: To meet the aims set by the philosophy, a different approach is taken during the design and development of a Type R. Therefore, each car possesses a special set of engineering qualities.

Normally aspirated: No bolting on of a turbocharger to give silly power figures. All Type R engines are normally-aspirated, which deliver smoother power delivery throughout the rev range, allowing power to be transferred through the chassis more easily, improving traction and acceleration.

Torsional rigidity: A stiffer chassis improves the handling of the car in terms of balance and adjustability. This makes for a more involving drive.

Simple technology: No traction control, stability control or four-wheel drive. Or indeed any other driver aids that can distance the driver from the experience. Instead, a Type R is based on clever, but simple engineering solutions rather than electronic gadgetry.

Type R Time-line

February 1992: NSX-R introduced. Weight is reduced by 265 lbs. Recaro seats and MOMO steering wheel fitted. Stiffer suspension adopted. Production limited to 1995 units.

September 1995: Honda announces the launch of the DC2 Integra Type-R. The Integra Type-R is powered by the B18C 1.8-litre DOHC VTEC engine, specifically developed for the Integra Type-R, with 200 bhp at 8,000 rpm. Standard equipment includes a helical LSD, sports suspension, a front lip spoiler, a rear spoiler, alloy wheels, a leather wrapped MOMO steering wheel, Recaro seats, and a titanium shift knob.

August 1997: The EK9 Civic Type-R is launched in Japan. It is powered by an exclusively-developed 1.6-liter DOHC VTEC B16B engine that makes 185 bhp at 8,200 rpm. The lightweight B16B engine features a new valve system allowing higher engine speeds, reduced engine friction, improved breathing, and increased compression ratio. Main features of handling include increased body rigidity, reduced weight, sports suspension, torque-sensitive helical LSD, sports-tuned ABS, and Bridgestone Potenza RE010 tires.

Jan 1998: The Accord Type-R goes on sale in the UK, with a tweaked version of the H22A engine on board. In addition, the Accord Type-R boasts a limited-slip-diff, Recaro seats and a stiffer chassis.

July 2001: An updated version of the Integra Type-R (DC5) is launched for sale in Japan and USA. The special color of Championship White celebrates Honda’s first victory in F1. The DC5 Integra Type-R is powered by the K20A 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine with 220 bhp and a new 6-speed manual gearbox. The suspension adopts clever front suspension and reactive-link double wishbone rear suspension. The Integra Type-R is also equipped with Recaro front seats, a leather wrapped MOMO steering wheel, aluminum pedals, aluminum shift knob, exclusive aero parts and Brembo front brakes.

October 2001: A Type-R version of the 7th generation Civic is announced. It is built at Honda in the UK Manufacturing in Swindon, Wiltshire. The CTR – as it becomes known by enthusiasts – is powered by a 2.0-liter i-VTEC engine that produces 200 bhp. The Civic Type-R goes on to sell over 35,000 units and pick up numerous Hot Hatch of the Year awards.

February 2006: An all-new Civic Type R, based on a three-door version of the 2006 Civic is unveiled at Geneva Motor Show.

The Original Honda of Japan's K20A article

Fuel Economy, Ample Torque, Clean Emissions
- The i-VTEC provides it all depending on engine load -

The DOHC i-VTEC utilizes smart valve control technology

The i-VTEC system utilizes Honda's proprietary VTEC sytem and adds VTC (Variable Timing Control), which allows for dynamic/continuous intake valve timing and overlap control.

The demanding aspects of fuel economy, ample torque, and clean emissions can all be controlled and provided at a higher level with VTEC (intake valve timing and lift control) and VTC (valve overlap control) combined.

VTC (Variable Timing Control mechanism)

The VTC actuator, installed on the intake camshaft, is controlled by oil pressure, to allow for dynamic and continuous valve timing to fit the load of the engine.

Additionally, the intake manifold length can be adjusted.

Combined with the DOHC i-VTEC, in order to obtain both ample low/mid-end torque and high-end output, a rotary valve is used inside the dual-passage intake manifold.

During low/mid rpm,, the rotary valve is closed, while it opens during high rpm's. By varying the intake path length according to engine rpm, ample torque is gained at all rpm levels. Additionally, the rotary valve design is superior over past butterfly valve (flap) in that it reduces intake resistance.

The K20A : Honda's 1st DOHC i-VTEC Engine

The K20A used in the new Honda STREAM is the first of the new generation i-VTEC engines. Eventhough the engine does not produce a humongous amount of power in absolute terms, the importance of the engine is that it tells us of the new technologies that Honda is working on, and directly indicates the technologies that will be used on the new generation i-VTEC super high-performance engines that is to come.
Do not judge the K20A by its mere 154ps power rating. What is important is not its specific power output but the sheer amount of technologies that Honda has put into it. It is truly a new generation VTEC engine - the DOHC iVTEC. As can be expected, a lot of wonderful current technologies have been carried over to the K20A, frequently enhanced in a way that makes the K20A overall a wonder-engine in its own way.

i-VTEC

i-VTEC introduced continuously variable camshaft phasing on the intake cam of DOHC VTEC engines. The technology first appeared on Honda's K-series four cylinder engine family in 2002. Valve lift and duration are still limited to distinct low and high rpm profiles, but the intake camshaft is now capable of advancing between 25 and 50 degrees (depending upon engine configuration) during operation. Phase changes are implemented by a computer controlled, oil driven adjustable cam gear. Phasing is determined by a combination of engine load and rpm, ranging from fully retarded at idle to maximum advance at full throttle and low rpms. The effect is further optimization of torque output, especially at low and midrange RPMs.

In 2004, Honda introduced an i-VTEC V6 (an update of the venerable J-series), but in this case, i-VTEC had nothing do to with cam phasing. Instead, i-VTEC referred to Honda's cylinder deactivation technology which closes the valves on one bank of (3) cylinders during light load and low speed (below 80 mph) operation. The technology was originally introduced to the US on the Honda Odyssey, and can now be found on the Honda Accord Hybrid and the 2006 Honda Pilot. An additional version of i-VTEC was introduced on the 2006 Honda Civic's R-series four cylinder engine. This implementation uses very small valve lifts at low rpm and light loads, in combination with large throttle openings (modulated by a drive-by-wire throttle system), to improve fuel economy by reducing pumping losses.

With the continued introduction of vastly different i-VTEC systems, one may assume that the term is now a catch all for creative valve control technologies from Honda.

Honda Integra Type R

Introduced in '97 the Integra Type R is a track racer with all the practicalities of a normal car such as 4 seats, a usable boot and reasonable miles per gallon.

The Integra model had not been seen in the UK since '87. With the R denoting 'racing', the Integra Type R is lightened even down to the windscreen, stripped and strengthened, and some red badges.

The main feature this car has is the engine - a hand finished 1.8 litre, 100bhp per litre naturally aspirated VTEC engine. The B18 VTEC engine urging your to rev to the redline peaking 190bhp @ 7900rpm.

The UK car gets the Japanese Recaro interior - Red in the Championship White models and Black in the Black or Red variants. The US quad lamp front end was installed from the launch. The Japanese did not switch to this design until later so same year JDM imports may have the large rectangular lights.

As with many of Hondas cars build quaility remains high. A stainless steel exhaust is standard equipment, and is hard to improve on. A helical Limited Slip Differential is alkso standard fare to increase road holding - a great asset where so many manufacturers use computers to cut the fun.

The Integra Type R has gained a reputation as one of the best handling front wheel drive cars, thanks to impressive structural rigidity and double wishbone suspension front and rear.

Thanks to its ability both on road and on track the ITR is a great one car solution to having an everyday car and one for the weekend. Use on track can lead to the path of upgrades - though often at the expense of everyday ride or power delivery. It is worth noting that Honda put a great deal of research into attaining 100bhp per litre and into see gains on this will require careful selection of parts and a reasobale amount of money.

The ITR begs to be driven and is rewarding to do so. It does require dedication, with little low down torque, and VTEC not even engaging until around 6000rpm but put the effort in and the rewards are there. A lack of sound proofing adds to the experience as the VTEC switch over turns the engine note into an F1 howl all the way upto 140mph. The dash to 60mph comes up in 6.7 seconds, but it's not just about the raw acceleration. The whole package works so well together and even though it pushes the boundaries in technology it remains reliable.

The DC2 Integra Type R will no doubt claim a space in classic motoring in the future.

Honda's VTEC system is a simple and fairly elegant method of endowing the engine with multiple camshaft profiles optimized for low and high RPM operations. Instead of only one cam lobe actuating each valve, there are two - one optimised for low RPM smoothness and one to maximize high RPM power output. Switching between the two cam lobes is controlled by the engine's management computer. As engine RPM increases, a locking pin is pushed by oil pressure to bind the high RPM cam follower for operation. From this point on, the valve opens and closes according to the high-speed profile, which opens the valve further and for a longer time. The VTEC system was originally introduced as a DOHC system in the 1989 Honda Integra sold in Japan, which used a 160 hp (119 kW) variant of the B16A engine. The US market saw the first VTEC system with the introduction of the 1990 Acura NSX, which used a DOHC V6. The DOHC VTEC system has high and low RPM cam lobe profiles on both the intake and exhaust valve camshafts. This resulted in the most power gain at high RPMs and DOHC VTEC engines were thus used in the highest performance Honda automobiles. In contrast to the SOHC implementation which switches between cam profiles seamlessly, when the DOHC version switches cams there is a definite change in the engine note.
