2001 Acura Integra Type R - Less Is More
While some opt for monster-like power figures, Goran settled on a more subtle approach. Check out this 2001 Acura Integra Type R here.When one takes ownership of an Integra Type R, two truths become painfully evident. The first, and perhaps most obvious one, is that the ITR is more than just an Integra plastered with a few fancy stickers and a slight power bump. Though some would refer to it as no more than a glorified GSR, true R enthusiasts are able to sway opinions with just a few minutes worth of discussion to point out the real differences between the chassis. Or, if they wanted to make things easy, they'd simply hand over the keys and quickly make a believer out of even the most stubborn Type R naysayer. The unfortunate consequence of ITR ownership, however, is theft. Everyone knows that most of the "extras" that make the ITR what it is can be swapped over to lower-model Integras, as well as many Civics, with ease. The very thought of getting some alone time with a toolbox and a hot Type R is enough to have most any thief foaming at the mouth. Goran Nikolic of Redwood City, Calif., has been on both sides of the fence.
