This well-maintained 1998 Honda Integra Type R has just 64,000km on the clock, and is currently up for sale with Asphalt Classics for just €32,900 EUR (approx. Additionally, it came with a punchy 9000 RPM redline which makes for incredible VTEC noises, and independent double-wishbone front and rear suspensions that make the car poised and handle fantastically. The 1.8-liter VTEC naturally aspirated engine is good for 190 HP, which may not sound like a lot but when the car only weighs 1.2 tonnes, a power-to-weight ratio makes for a 0-62 MPH time of 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 145 MPH. Aside from this, the Integra Type R is left in stock condition - which is no bad thing by any means. It also comes with the coveted selection of three keys, one of which being a never-opened “Red Key” presented in its original packaging. For example, most Type R’s came with red Recaro bucket seats, but the original owner actually opted for black Alcantara instead, with red Recaro branding embroidered into the headrest area. Two colors were available for 20: Phoenix Yellow ('00-'01) and Flamenco Black Pearl ('00) or Nighthawk Black Pearl ('01).Finished in the desirable “Champion White” color, this Integra Type R was purchased from Honda Bruxelles in ‘98 under a special order program that means a number of unique elements were added as stock to this model. The Type R was not available for 1999 but returned in 2000 and remained until the end of DC2 production in 2001. In the US, the car would only be available in Championship White in 19. The Type R was introduced as a 1997 model to the US market under the Acura brand with the only option being air-conditioning. The interior was revised as well to include a 10,000 rpm tachometer with an 8,400 rpm redline along with revised sport cloth seats and a titanium shift knob. Other features such as a moonroof, vanity mirrors, cruise control and a rear wiper were eliminated to save weight. The 1998 JDM Type R would receive 5 lug 16" alloy wheels wrapped in 215/45/ZR16 tires. Larger rotors and calipers were included and the ABS system was revised as well. The 1995-1997 Type R has four-lug 15 x 6 aluminum wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE010 195/55R15 tires. The Type R had revised springs and dampers as well as larger sway bars. The Type R has larger strut tower bars, rear performance rods on the rear frame and numerous body reinforcements. ![]() The focus of the Type R was to minimize weight while enhancing rigidity. In 1998, the JDM Type R and other international markets would receive a revised final drive ratio of 4.785 while the US Type R only had a 4.40 final drive ratio. In addition, the Type R came equipped with a Helical limited-slip differential. First gear and the final drive were identical to the GS-R transmission but gears two to four were spaced much closer. The Type R came only with a close-ratio five-speed manual transmission. There were numerous differences between the Type R engine and the DOHC VTEC engine available in other Integra models (GS-R) but the increased power was primarily due to the higher compression, larger throttle body, high lift camshafts and high-volume exhaust manifold. JDM cars and cars sold in other international markets came with an 11:1 compression ratio whereas the US Integra Type R has a compression ratio of 10.6:1. In the JDM Type R this engine produces 200 PS (197 hp 147 kW) at 8,000 rpm, whereas in the US models it produces 195 hp (198 PS 145 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 130 lb⋅ft (176 N⋅m) of torque at 5,700 rpm. The Honda Integra Type R is equipped with a 1.8-liter DOHC VTEC in-line 4-cylinder (B18C) engine. In 1995, Honda introduced their first Integra Type R to the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM). ![]()
