They don't make the ITR anymore, well they do, but it's called the RSX-S here.

no actually you're wrong.

we dont have any variance of the ITR in the US market.

in Japan, the UK, and Austrailia, there is an ITR, or "RSX-R" if it were here. and no, the engines are not quite the same.

the 05' RSX is slightly more like the ITR in other countries than previous years, (10 more horses throughout the powerband)

the block is the same and so is the stroke, and it's alot like having a b18c1 vs a b18c5... it's just different, yet the same

USDM RSX Type-S is the same thing as the Australian Integra Type-R.

Japanese Integra Type-R has more power, LSD, Brembo brakes, Recaro seats, etc etc etc.

The Japanese Accord Euro-R also has the same motor as the Japanese Integra Type-R.
