@Parsifaal you can clearly see Akira was not pushing the NSX hard. He had oportunity to pass the civic from the first lap but he didn't. Maybe he knew he didn't have to push really hard to win and also as you say, he was saving his tires.
The NSX had several opportunities to pass and didn't take them but I do know those JDM civics are much faster than our European offerings, I got beat on the way to hastings by one in my VR6 and Type Rs were usually neck and neck.
I think they should have actually tested the Nismo Z, since that's the dedicated track package. I'd love to see a matchup just between the NSX and the Z.
Wow, I'm impressed at how well the civic type-r handles. Crazy. Of course, out of all the cars I'd rather have the Z. It tore by the S2000 at 4:34 like it was standing still, and had the 2nd fastest lap time, right behind the NSX. Not bad for an affordable Nissan.
Good showing by the 350z HR even with the ridiculously inadequate factory tire size. That thing would be in the same class as the NSX with an appropriate wheel/tire/brake setup. The NSX has always been super impressive straight from the factory.
@TamanLinkin yep! the BATTLE RESULT scores/times at the end at 8:31 shows you that it was the NSX in first, Z in second, CTR in third, s2k in fourth and the ITR in fifth time wise.
@Gred922 It still wouldn't over take them because the Z's brakes were already weak and they will continue to weaken. Not to mention the cars weight also would have put more pressure on the tires thus it would only get slower. Magnificent car though.
@eg2171 I found it weird also that the guy in the Integra was not accelerating hard. he was shifting at 7500rpm which is well short of the 8400 redline.
Agree with you 350gtrs, for sure the "z" is faster but, you have to consider the fact that the z have 100 hp more than the civic and both are very similar in weight. The z should be compared to the nsx because both are over 280hp were the z have 350hp.
4:34 brute horsepower at work lol. not bad for an affordable sportscar. 2nd best time too. the only reason Z behind the civic is because tsuchiya drives it.
Can someone please explain to me how the NSX can be so slow or the Civic so fast ? I know Akira is waiting on purpose to save his tyres but even after overtaking Tsuchiya he's not that fast...
The NSX won before the race even started LOL well in my opinion. MR cornering machine in a circuit dedicated to cornering. Auto win for NSX. And if it was the Nismo Z package, NSX should get the NSX TYPE R package. Since thats the track dedicated package xD
Less power = More grip as Tsuchiya proves... and that he can whoopass in any car no matter what the power. Although I wish he was driving the integra R since I own one :P
ah no its not check the time attack stats the civi got 1:08:97 and the Z got 1:08:87 which is thus far faster than the civic even without the racing suspension.. now if they had pinned the nismo 350z trust me theat little civi would of been left far behind.
Sure : 1 The civic is a generation newer, 2 the civic is a lot lighter then the nsx, 3 it is no ordinary civic but a type-R, 4 this civic has the new 2 liter V-tec engine K20, 5 the nsx was not an nsx-r, 6 this track is small and more suited to a light nimble car like the civic type-r. If you add all that, you got a recipe for a car that can keep up with a more higher powered car. And honda is in general very good at making fast FF cars.
Jurgen Haagen , Well they wouldn't need to worry about early upshift too much on a new turbocharged Civic Type R. Yes you're right about those drivers though.
Can some one explain to me at the start why the integra type r with the same engine and power as the civic but weighing less was slower. And why he was shifting early at about 8k when the civic was hitting the 9's.... something tells me that teg had a shit driver ? Or am I missing something.
Thanyawisit Saguanvong yeah that's what I'm talking about. It's so frustrating cause I believe with the right driver that dc5 would have easily been all over that civic. Do you think alot of these races are set up then?
I'm not sure for that. I mean just one time when you see something not a make sense such as.. suck shifting from a real (ex)racers. It hard to believe that is real test . When I saw that I just stop watching an immediatly no. ps.sorry my english is not good.^^' ,But however nice to talk with you.
D Watkins The FD2 Civic Type R is a much newer car than the DC5 Integra.. The differences were explained in other Best Motoring videos. There is a BM video showing the technical details and development of the FD2 CTR, it is a lot faster than the ITR and can match the old school JDM supercars around Tsukuba. The car is really that good...

Tsuchiya is so good he kept ahead of the NSX in his CTR!
The Z should have pulled behind the NSX at the dig. The race would have been NSX vs Z, with that Civic out of the way.
Fairlady z did a good job, it fast enough to get the 1st place
@Parsifaal you can clearly see Akira was not pushing the NSX hard. He had oportunity to pass the civic from the first lap but he didn't. Maybe he knew he didn't have to push really hard to win and also as you say, he was saving his tires.

I wonder why the Integra driver was early shifting in the beginning, he was shifting at 7500rpm
This Regional is actually impressive
I meant the Z had the 2nd best time. Their finishing order is irrelevant.
I think they should have actually tested the Nismo Z, since that's the dedicated track package. I'd love to see a matchup just between the NSX and the Z.

god i am so glad i own a civic type r they are by far best car for the money and best hot hatch ever made honda's rule
@eg2171 I found it weird also that the guy in the Integra was not accelerating hard. he was shifting at 7500rpm which is well short of the 8400 redline.
lmao you can tell tsuchiya is having mad fun
@TamanLinkin The only Reason why the Z is behind the Civic is because the Civic is much more Sophisticated....
Omg it looks like the same person drove every car :O
Agree with you 350gtrs, for sure the "z" is faster but, you have to consider the fact that the z have 100 hp more than the civic and both are very similar in weight. The z should be compared to the nsx because both are over 280hp were the z have 350hp.

Actually the Hondas finished in 1st and 3rd. 2nd was the Z. But yeah, I'm impressed with that civic.
Go by what you see it will be less oppressive
The NSX won before the race even started LOL well in my opinion. MR cornering machine in a circuit dedicated to cornering. Auto win for NSX. And if it was the Nismo Z package, NSX should get the NSX TYPE R package. Since thats the track dedicated package xD

NSX all the way baby!
ah no its not check the time attack stats the civi got 1:08:97 and the Z got 1:08:87 which is thus far faster than the civic even without the racing suspension.. now if they had pinned the nismo 350z trust me theat little civi would of been left far behind.
the nsx and then the civic was 1,2. the z had the second fastest lap time, but when crossing the line the nsx then the civic was 1,2
NSX is same as yours but it's in the rear
nice battle! honda gets a 1,2 win! yeah the s2000 didnt stand a chance once the 350z caught up. idk why the integra was in there... lol
that is one fast civic!
加速でシビックがNSXを離すの！？凄い
@TamanLinkin
The civic type-r is MURDEROUSLY fast around a track.
🗣💬see the size of the engine??
@Parsifaal fd2 civic is pure racer + it is 10years younger then nsx-s
FD2の音がいいな
the civic type r very fast stock beats the integra type r and the 35o z
まあ丁度攻めてるはずのところでNSXの車載映像を見せない時点でお察しなんだけどね。
中谷さんがベスモを離れた理由も見えてくる。
Honestly, i knew NSX would win way before watching the Video
下の書き込み何？
Can someone explain to me how a 4doors FF sedan can keep up with a mid-engined two seater sportscar ??
Sure : 1 The civic is a generation newer, 2 the civic is a lot lighter then the nsx, 3 it is no ordinary civic but a type-R, 4 this civic has the new 2 liter V-tec engine K20, 5 the nsx was not an nsx-r, 6 this track is small and more suited to a light nimble car like the civic type-r. If you add all that, you got a recipe for a car that can keep up with a more higher powered car. And honda is in general very good at making fast FF cars.
@w00t692 i have to agree. honda certainly make the best n/a 4 pot engines in the world, period!!!
🤩💬now....relaX...700 hp....is different HiH San Diego ??
Do you understand...now????????
I have an dc5 my one. Dc5 driver shifts way to early. shitty driver
Jurgen Haagen , Well they wouldn't need to worry about early upshift too much on a new turbocharged Civic Type R. Yes you're right about those drivers though.
Relax the 350z is.... the new supra

Keiichi Tsuchiya was driving xD
D Watkins Look at 2:01 k20a can hit 8400 rpm. but he wasn't. its set up for lose.
Thanyawisit Saguanvong yeah that's what I'm talking about. It's so frustrating cause I believe with the right driver that dc5 would have easily been all over that civic. Do you think alot of these races are set up then?
