ONLY NOOBS HATE HONDA'S - INTEGRA TYPE R DC2 K20 REVIEW
#VTEC #HONDA #NA
Integra Info from Evo Magazine:
Honda Integra Type-R DC2
The first Honda to wear the Type-R badge, the Integra, was an instant hit with keen drivers and today is still lauded as one of the best front-wheel drive cars ever made
Every so often a car comes along that’s truly groundbreaking. One that years after its debut is still revered as a brilliant piece of engineering, one that has stood the test of time so well that it wins plaudits for the way it drove, even against more modern machinery. One such car is Honda’s Integra Type R (DC2), a car that back in 2006 we proclaimed was the best front-wheel drive performance car ever.
Such a proclamation is bound to spark lively debate and while you might agree/disagree with the Integra’s abilities there’s no getting away from what a great package it was. Even if you don’t see it as being the pinnacle of the front-drive breed you have to admire what Honda achieved with the first Type R to hit these shores.
We knew that Honda was capable of making sublime sporting machinery - witness the NSX - but its mainstream offerings, in the UK at least, were nothing if not a little bland in the mid-1990s. But that all changed when the Integra Type-R came along. Driven like a normal car it failed to excite, but get that VTEC four-pot up towards the top of its rev range and the Jekyll to Hyde transformation was complete with the sort of power to bring the chassis alive.
The Integra Type-R inspired a generation of quick Hondas with red R badges but even considering how good the latest generation of machines are it’s hard to argue against the poise and delicacy of the original. You’ll need to be quick though if you want to experience the original Integra Type-R - prices are on the rise and the British climate hasn’t been kind to them. Our advice? Find a good one and cherish it before it’s too late.
The Integra started life back in 1985 as both a hatchback and a saloon but by the time the first model arrived on these shores in 1997 the Integra was actually into its third generation. Until the arrival of the Type-R the hottest version had been the GS-R with 170bhp - a pretty impressive output from an atmospheric 1.8-litre.
There was more to come from the 1.8 ’four though with Honda’s skilled technicians releasing a further 17bhp for the Type-R. Its finely honed engine was treated to revised inlet valves, lighter conrods, a larger throttle body and molybdenum-coated pistons along with a bigger bore exhaust. The engine was assembled by hand which limited output to just 25 cars a day (with the UK receiving an official allocation of just 500 cars) and was ported and polished as it was lovingly put together.
