How many Honda Civic Type R EK9 were made? ›

The Type Rx was the final model of the EK9 generation. Production of the EK9 Civic Type R totalled 16,000 units. In 1999, Honda tuning company Spoon Sports designed an N1 racing version of the Type R that had the B16B engine redline increased from 8,400 rpm to 11,000 rpm.

The B16B engine featured a hand-polished cylinder head, lighter flywheel, redesigned cam profiles, high-compression pistons and balanced crankshaft. The chassis was given the designation EK9.

The length ranges from 4180 mm to 4450 mm.

First generation (EK9)

The first-generation Honda Civic Type-R, also known as the EK9, was a high-performance version of the sixth-generation Honda Civic, manufactured between 1997 and 2000.

For its third act, Honda gave the EK9 Civic the Type R badge to go along with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder that made 182 horsepower all the way up to 8,200 rpm, and 118 pound-feet of torque. Like the Integra Type R, the Civic Type R also got a five-speed manual transmission.

The new Civic Type R is powered by the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder as the previous-generation car, but a redesigned turbocharger with a more efficient exhaust system has increased power output to 315 horsepower at 6500 rpm with 310 pound-feet of torque at 2600 to 4000 rpm.

Depends on the year of the Honda EK9 you plan to import. As a car that was exclusively launched for Japan, you cannot buy a Honda Civic EK9 in the US. However, as the first batch of cars was released in 1997, some of the EK9 are now legal for import to the United States.

Eventually the mechanism evolved into Honda's VTEC (Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control System) engine.

The EK9 was the original, and for many, it's still the best. A genuine EK9 is so much more than simply a sixth-gen Civic hatchback with a racy motor dropped into it. Built in Suzuka from 1997-2000, these cars used the EK4 Civic SiR as a base and stripped out all of the sound deadening.
