Spoiler!

Fucking LOL at some of the lines taken by those M3 drivers though.
I gotta say though, the most fun I had at any of the track days were with type R, cayman and FR-S drivers.

Clean cars are hard to find.

After spending a few days getting to know the R I have to say the handling and balance far surpassed my expectations. What a chassis. This car handles better than my 993 did. (993 probably could have used a suspension upgrade).

If this car had a Porsche badge it would be $100k easy like the 964 RS America. I think many people write this car off because it is FWD which has kept prices sane. They don't know what they are missing.

I now understand why people keep their R for a long time. :jiggy:

^ Handling & braking is :sweetjesus: That's why I'm in love with the ITR chassis..

!e.lo_ 04-08-2016 09:52 PM

My cars always for sale, for the right price. Comes with plenty of parts lol
(I'm dreaming)

The chassis really comes to life at speed. It's baffling how responsive and controllable it is at the limit. Especially in stock form. After having a modded one for so long I always wanted a stock one to get that feeling again.

tofu1413 04-09-2016 01:58 PM

yeah. stock chassis in fresh condition, with stock suspension is just magic.


better pads and a slightly more rigid bracing makes a difference on these cars :sweetjesus:

tegra7 04-12-2016 06:19 PM

Is this the same one that was FS here with a chipped front bumper a while back?

There is something incredibly satisfying about taking a car that looks somewhat unassuming and just MOWING expensive cars down in the corners. Mind you then the average minivan leaves you like you have the e-brake one when you hit the straightaways, but at least you have the corners...

yes i know it's shady velocity cars and it's RHD and it's a 96spec 4x114.3 and they put cheap chinese deathmaster tires on it to pass inspection and it's expensive... but it's black, black recaros, grade 4B:

As cool as it is, I just can't understand getting a RHD car if it was available in LHD.

Price would be the #1 factor IMO. Look at FD RX-7's and Supra's. RHD variants are a fraction of what a LHD version would be. ITR's are in the same boat now with insane pricing. You're lucky to get a rebuild for $10K nowadays.

As much as I hate RHD, I would fuck with a '98 spec DB8R in CW or VSM. Sedans are dope.

Owner dropped his price.
Integra Type R

VR6GTI 04-14-2016 12:28 PM

$500 lol
I don't think its as clean as the owner has stated for that price anyhow
With 3 WTB ITR on craigslist. You would think someone would have wanted to purchase it.

it's for sale. i don't know much about it other than it has had a lot of cosmetic reconditioning and the original mileage is low. ask for cyrus.

the dc2r next to it is also for sale, but it's big $$$. LHD, but all new spoon and jdm everything... ask for raymond.

Jgresch 04-14-2016 02:49 PM

yes

tofu1413 04-14-2016 02:50 PM

U know an ITR is expensive when.... even SR auto has one in their showroom.

westopher 04-14-2016 02:59 PM

What kind of pricing are we talking here. Like 25k big money or like 50k big money.

Jgresch 04-14-2016 03:28 PM

They aren't actively trying to sell them, parts are still being added to both. So if someone comes along at the right price I'm sure they'd let them go.
