I owned a 97 GSR, a friend of mine had a 97 Type R. They were two different animals. Not really even a comparision. The Type R was more than the sum of its parts. A truly amazing piece of LSD equipped, super ridged, nimble handling, excellent brake having, machinery. I tried in vein to replicate the performance of the Type R with a manners of bolt on parts from Neuspeed/HKS/Greddy etc. and ever came close. The R was an engineering masterpiece in its day.

the fact that this car is more expensive than some first gen NSX’s blows my mind

[DrRyan]

Oh yeah. I remember 7 years ago when a couple of these were near me for 12000

RCR spends a decade hyping up 90s japanese cars, and here we are.
YOU DID THIS, CONGRATULATIONS

I miss my old type r kids never trade in something you've always dreamed about for a smart eco friendly German diesel shit box

I do lament that GSR's get that "oh, not a type r :(" reaction when they are so good on their own merit

Remember seeing VTEC red cover as a kid, getting excited and curious. All these years later, still a kid.

“If you’re gonna let BS live in your brain, you might as well make it pay rent.”

That’s really good advice right there.

The sound of the V-tec is automotive nostalgia.

"It's still running!" sums up 90s Japanese cars and pretty much every car my family owns.

2000 I was looking for a used 2-door car. The dealer showed me the Integra and I thought it was too small inside . I wanted more space & "comfort" for a 2 door so I bought a used Cutlass. LOL

[kinaritakashima]

so my dad was on the design team for this Integra. I can ask him a few questions about the car if you want.

edit: so he wasn't the chief designer but was the lead exterior designer for this car
