5 Zigen Civic Type-R
* The stock hood has been retained. 5Zigen estimates this CTR to weigh about 1100 kilos (2425 pounds) with no driver.
* The Ings+1 body kit is used both for looks and aerodynamics.
* Compared to racecars, time attack cars abide by a fairly open rulebook. There are no rule sets for each base platform and modifications that would kick you out of any 'normal' race class; body kits, aftermarket forced induction and engine swaps, are allowed. There are no specific weight penalties or concessions made to level a car compared to those of other makes, of which there are many. Time attack cars also don't need to be run that long and don't normally go wheel-to-wheel against each other.
* All glass windows have been retained by 5Zigen and all four doors are fully intact. There has been no cutting to allow the intrusion of roll cage door bars.
* The carbon fiber rear wing is from Honda Veni, a Honda dealership in Osaka. This dealer also manufactures a line of aftermarket parts for Hondas. Go figure.
