==In-Game description==
"A time attack Civic customized in the classic JDM style."
The overwhelming popularity of Japanese performance cars on the international circuit led to the creation of the "JDM" (Japanese Domestic Market) category. This Honda Civic is one such JDM-themed custom car to win the Gran Turismo Award in 2017, a prize presented to the very best custom cars at the SEMA show. 
In 2006, Philip Robles purchased an almost stock condition 1992 model "EG" Civic and began gradually customizing it with his son Jesse. Their aim was to compete in regional Time Attack and Time Trial classes on race tracks in the Southwest. There was a 10-year span of continuous track weekends that resulted in several Time Trial and Time Attack championships. In 2017, Philip was asked to display the Civic at the SEMA booth of Mackin Industries, an importer of tuning parts in the USA. This prompted the car to be further customized and refreshed for the show. 
The most obvious modification to the car is the wide body kit from Japanese aero brand PANDEM, along with a front splitter and rear wing. Another notable feature is the bold design of the carbon-fiber hood, which was based on a design by Japanese tuner J's Racing. The interior has been stripped bare and reinforced with a roll cage, leaving only a single bucket seat. 
The original engine was swapped out for a Honda K24 inline-4. When this car appeared at the 2017 SEMA show, the engine was naturally aspirated, but it later underwent an extensive tuning process, adding a turbocharger and greatly increasing engine power. The transmission is a 5-speed sequential gearbox made by Quaife for K-series engines. 
On both the front and rear axles, the brakes were upgraded to a high-capacity system with Brembo calipers. Naturally, the suspension was upgraded to a circuit specification setup.

This Garage RCR Civic is a finely-tuned mod of the EG Civic, a popular Japanese hot hatch from the 1990s. Garage RCR is a body shop located in Phoenix, Arizona. They specialise in fitting PANDEM widebody kits and other Japanese tuning parts to cars. This car is, without a doubt, a JDM custom hero. Powered by a swapped-in 2.4L K-series engine with turbo, it can push 400 horsepower, and drives like a dream. In 2017, it was crowned with the Gran Turismo Award at SEMA, the world's largest custom-car show.

Why, this is the Garage RCR Civic, the winner of the Gran Turismo Award at SEMA 2017! 'Garage RCR' refers to a body shop in Phoenix, Arizona, and the 'Civic' on which this car is based is the '92 EG. The custom parts are genuine JDM! From its widebody kit to its front bonnet, a wealth of Japanese tuning parts have been expertly used. Built to excel at time attacks, its chassis and engine transmission have also been tuned to perfection. You'll be blown away by its five-speed sequential gearbox and 400ps of turbocharged power. I hear that Phil Robles, the owner of this car... built it piece-by-piece with his son Jesse!
