Seller says it's a real type r but it doesn't have some things like the oem type r brace holes on the strut top?

I have the chassis/VIN number if you can tell from this?

Awful seats! Possibly Type S? I don't know!

 

[DC5RS]

nah type S have different interior.
The car seems a type r but awwww looks rubish (those rims heart my eyes).
It is cheap but i would buy all OEM parts to make it have a proper JDM look.

that speed dial looks funny lol kmh to mh and has sticker back to km lol not worth buying or look at it

lol i just noticed the stickers on the speedo

LOOK AT THE 240 STICKER ON TOP !!!!!

/caps

 

[ckh]

looks like a Type R but not very well looked after,

the speedo seems to have been converted to MPH but the car was used in Ireland so that explains the reason for the stickers

Seats has had leather patch added on to prevent wear

best to get a VIN if interested

What a strange mix!

Seems to be a Type-R but has a few bits from the Integra iS....

Brake Ducts for one.

 

[Type K]

why does that lip kit look so bad?
the skirts are bad but looking at the front and rear lip they look similar to mugen ones but they just seem to look horrendous on this car

 

[Zani]

DC5 Front lip missing
Brake cooling ducts covered up
Cant see brembos when zoomed in
Front strut brace missing

I would say Type S

Oh, it would be back to total standard if I even thought about buying it. But I was just curious.

Seller believes it's a genuine Type-R he really does. I have the VIN number how can I tell from that though?

 

[G Man]

VIN number has 'DC5' in it.

 

[Modmedia]

It does. But wouldn't any of them?

 

[Nickyyy]

Maybe it's one of them Aussie Type Rs

 

[G Man]

It does. But wouldn't any of them?

Good point, now that I think about it lol

 

[TyperItr]

Converted type IS?

 

[dave7368]

the VIN plate should also have TYPE R stamped on it, below the chassis number

 

[Topgeezer]

Here is the vin plate of my old Integra Type iS. I'm sure they only came with an auto/sequential gear box as well.

The pic's of that white Teg are awful and they are not Type iS seats. Personally i think it looks a mess all round

Ooops double post.

DC5 is just the bodyshape, rsx etc is also a dc5.



IMO that is not a type R as-
-it is missing the studs on the strut tops for the oem strut brace, which all the type r's had. something looks odd with the way it sits, if it is a type S it has different suspension components just like the rsx.

-no hid's (were std)

-no brembos front or red calipers rear.

-no holes for original rear wing (although these could have been filled/welded when other bits were painted)
