In this video, we take a deep dive into the legendary 2003 Honda Civic Type R EP3 JDM Import, a true hot hatch icon from the early 2000s! This JDM-spec EP3 Civic Type R is powered by the high-revving K20A engine, delivering that unmistakable VTEC kick that made these cars so beloved. Unlike the UKDM version, this Japanese-import Civic Type R features a factory LSD (Limited Slip Differential) and a more aggressive 220BHP tune, making it an absolute joy to drive!
For many enthusiasts, the EP3 Civic Type R represents peak Honda performance-a lightweight chassis, razor-sharp handling, and a rev-happy 2.0L VTEC engine that screams all the way to 8,600 RPM. To capture the nostalgia of the early 2000s hot hatch scene, I’ve used Feeder’s “Just the Way I’m Feeling,” a track that perfectly embodies the era when these cars were king of the streets.
A huge thank you to DCY Europe for lending me this stunning JDM-imported Civic Type R for the afternoon.
