Yum yea, the TYPE R is a beautiful car. It's lighter than the RSX, though not by much. Has a LSD, 8400 redline, and is 1.8 liters vs. 2.0. The Type R is a raw vehicle, no sound deadening, some don't have A/C, and is easy to work on. Both cars are nice, however if you own a Type R you must become a track ***** or you will be flamed for just being a ricer!

I still miss mine and will someday own another Champion White DC2R. The DC5R shouldn't even be talked about since we live in the U.S., if you want a showcar thats cool, but R's are meant only for the track not the strip!

Hey thanks for the links but I either need a dealer that has them for sale or someone who wants an evo so I can trade. The JDM type R is to expensive.

Cause the LS doesn't have the same suspension setup as a Type-R?

ive owned an rsx-s and loved the car, a friend of mine had a type r and that car was amazing as well. either way you will have a great time and a good platform to mod.

yeah, i came from a type-s. after owning the evo though, i'd wonder where the performance in a na 4-banger is.

car was great, but just doesn't compare, different league.

best of luck.

I am surprised you actually need to ask. Type-R is the one. Try to get the latter model...I am not sure the year anymore. But the earlier 97 model is actually very finicky with its tail. The latter 98 model is much better, but less exciting.

I desperately miss my Type R. It is the only car that I must have again. A real purists car. Even though the Evo is "more" car, it has never brought such a lasting smile on my face as the R did.

ITR has a crazy crossover, one of the loudest imo. the rsx-s respond amazingly to simple modifications though. both great cars, but id take an ITR of the rsx any day


Quick Reply: Integra Type R or RSX type S?
