OOOK. The coolthing about the Type R integ is that it redlines out at 8000rpm's!(GSR got to 8100). I believe the Type r integra had the legend 'B18Ci' engine while the civic was armed with the less potent B16. These cars were made to handle the rather curvacious roads of japan, not the straight line.

The type R actually has the B18c5 engine. I could be wrong.

here in cyprus we had a race like that a type-r integra vs a gt-4, the both of them with heavy mods the gt-4 was better on the start (4wd) but the type-r was the winner of that race!!!!! the type-r was n/a!

did the person with the gt4 know how to mod it?

cuz that doesnt seem right

the gt4 has 255 while the teg has 210 (if its type R). with the same mods the gt4 should've still won the race.

yes the both cars had hevy mods!!!! i was there if anyone alse told me i would not belived him, the guy who moded the type-r has a civic sir with 600+ hp his name is <jp motis> i thing his got a web page or something he came 3 place in greece drag by using nos

You know, that's really impressive. I wonder if the usdm has a rev limiter,or different internals...

i wish the my car redlined the same as an S200...the rev limiter doesent kick in on that beast till 10,200 RPM's

ok revs dont really have that much to do with max power persay.


there are boost controllers and these like that that you can make max boost at like 6 grand or something like that.


i guess for an N/A car its real good.

but its just sweet to have a car that will rev that high..when i drive my dads S2000 i love watching that **** go up to 8 and 9000 RPMs cause its so much better than the 6 thousand my car will do..plus i love how loud that car is when the revs are that high

gsr had the b18c1
type r had the b18c5

the major differences between a type r and a gsr is the engine, lack of a sunroof, interior is race oriented, lack of AC in the late 90's models, and all different body pannels, they were made thinner in order to shave the weight, which another bonus to the type r

yeah, the jdm version does have 210 hp but where is the fun in having all the power in the top end with almost 1/2 as much torque as hp? and a high redline in most cases means the power is higher up in the revs.

and yeah, there are electronic boost controllers that adjust the amount of boost depending on the gear and rpm.

as for a heavily modded gt4 vs a heavily modded NA type r, that would probably be close. but with a factory turboed car, high hp numbers come more easily than with an NA 1.8 liter engine. the ITR probably had all the mods you can do to a car without going FI(turbo, SC, and Nitrous are all considered FI)

An easy way for you guy to tell real type r's from fake ones is that a real type R has a b18c5r engine if you can see the block and that they all have 5 lug rims while all the other integras only had 4.

And for comparing the horsepower numbers of the ITR and the GT-4 I dont know who would win the race because while the GT-4 puts out approixmately 40 more to the fly then a USDM ITR the ITR weighs around 2100 while i believe the GT-4 weighs around 2800-2900 lbs.

honda's and acura's got wayyyyy more option parts compared to celica's .....just an example of how much performance a honda can achieve, there is a vid that 94trdceli posted..REALLY fast and really reliable
