When Martin arrives, I'm sure he'll post some vids, in which it appears to be THE best handling car ever, bar none

6750 + 2250 = 9000

Cool, I take it the EG and EK must be quite a bit different then. I seem to remember the EK9's aren't cheap though

I will bet you your house, car, brother, and all your money that an EK9 Civic Type-R revs to more than 6750 rpm.
Thanks.

If you notice, peak power and peak torque aren 't that much below the redline. I think the actual rev limit is 8900.
To the clot who states it revs to 6750 - the rr graph i've posted states that the peak power is at 8300 ish. Thats higher than 6750 isn't it?

Are you joking??? Why would the manufacture put the red that high up if it only revved to what you say.

again, that wasn't aimed at you. it was aimed at that kiddy fella saying that it will only rev to 6750
