Re: This place is dead...
I know the type R has a ton of upgrades.. different shocks/springs, no sound deadening in the back, strut bars from the factory, 5 lug(prolly bigger brake rotors), bigger sway bars, lightweight wheels, badass seats/interior, solid motor mounts, completely diff. engine(200 hp, 8,750rpm or so redline).. and prolly tons of other stuff I don't know about or can't remember
EDIT: I am gonna have some new pics/videos up tonight of my car so I can post it.

Key performance features of the Integra Type R include:
195-horsepower 1.8-liter dual overhead cam 16-valve VTEC inline 4-cylinder engine that provides more horsepower per liter than any normally aspirated mass-produced engine in the U.S.;
Hand-polished intake and exhaust ports and single-port intake manifold;
An exhaust system with a larger diameter to allow larger volume flow;
Overall vehicle weight reduced by 93 Ibs. (42 kg);
Torque-sensitive helical limited slip differential;
Lower overall vehicle height (by 15 mm) and aerodynamic refinements that result in 30% less lift (CI) and 1% less drag (Cd);
Racetrack-calibrated suspension and high-performance tires;
Larger disk brakes with performance-oriented calipers;
Refined Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS);
Reinforced unit body structure.
A number of other features were added to heighten the sporty appeal of the Type R, including:
Chin spoiler, wing-type rear spoiler, and body-colored side sills;
Lightweight aluminum alloy wheels that match the Type R's exclusive color -- Championship White;
Sport-style seats;
Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter knob;
Exclusive Type R ignition key;
Special serial number plate affixed to the center console;
Carbon fiber-like instrumentation design with amber illumination;
"Type R" graphics.
In the true spirit of racing, a select number of comfort and convenience features on the Integra Type R have been eliminated in an effort to minimize the vehicle's overallweight. These include items such as a sunroof, vanity mirrors, cruise control, rear window wiper/washer. Air conditioning becomes optional equipment. Other items that haTie been eliminated for weight considerations include dashboard insulator, transmission mount , drive shaft and shifter dynamic damper, and meltsheet for the floor stamping.

This is all referring to the 97-98 model USDM Type R. For the 2000-2001 Production years (not produced in the US in 1999) we lost Championship White. Only colors available were Pheonix Yellow and Black (forget the name) so the wheels were gunmetal instead of white. Same recaro seats. Shift knob changed from leather to titanium. Lost the Type R specific Key because of the imbolizer. Here's a pic of the chassis rigidity specs.
