thicker rear damper gusset
aluminum strut bar
thicker rear lower arm bracket
performance rod added to rear cross member
theicker rear wheel arch extension
(got all that stuff from acrchived notes i have )

it would be cheaper buying a type r in the first place. how are you going to duplicate the chassis.

 

Just get a 5-lug and put a type-R sticker on it. Oh, and make sure you get a manual; the AT ones are a dead give-away h:

You'll also need to replace/remove the moonroof.

Make sure the car is black or white also.

Presto! Integra Type-R!

Shingo

ps. The frame of the ITR is different (among other thigns). Forget everything I said and save your money for a turbo. After you turn in consistent 12 second timeslips you can put all the type-R stickers you want on your car and noone will tell you otherwise.

 

i'd do a jdm type-r front end conversion w/ a b18c5 and call it a day.

 

I'm pretty sure you can fool everyone by transforming an RS into an ITR. The RS doesnt have a mooroof, and after you repaint everything and shave the mouldings, and install everything the guys mentioned esrlier, you can fool people, but when they wanna know what num itr u have you won't be able to answer them.

 

how can you say shiit about the blue itr in SS? look at how much work he put into it. your car will never look as good as it, nor will it be as fast as it.

 

Not to mention the VIN issue.

 

Much simpler way to find out. RS doesn't have ABS so when you pop the hood to show off your lovely red valve cover, anybody who notices that you don't have ABS is gonna know it's fake.

 

i think the itr comes stock with hid too.

 

Not in this country.
