Turbo Integra Type R for Sale in the Forums is Ready to Race
Integra Type R for sale is built, boosted and road-hardened. If you don’t mind a few bumps and scrapes, this looks to be one stellar ride.
As of late, it’s been the Integra Type R leading the way for the Golden Era Honda revival. As enthusiasts mature, in both age and wealth, they pine for the old school, analog cars they dreamed of as kids. That means cars like the ITR and the EM1 Civic Si are shooting up in value as people snatch them up.
Of course, when you hear about $63,500 Integras, those are Concours-level specimens of perfection, often hidden away from things like daylight, or actually being driven. What about the drivers, or the cars that actually have some miles on them, and have been enjoyed, as they were always meant to be. That sounds a lot like this turbocharged Integra Type R we found for sale in the forums.
This clean title 2001 ITR is described by it’s owner, forum member shifts, as being “…by no means a garage queen and will have minimal dings, scrapes.” Our seller goes on to provide a rather lengthy list of modifications:

Our seller says that they have owned the car since January, 2012, and that the turbo build was handled by the original owner. Interestingly, no engine bay pictures are included, nor is a power figure for that built, sleeved and boosted B18C engine. Though, the seller states that it is conservatively tuned at 10 PSI.
With 72,000 miles on the odometer, and an asking price of $21,500, it’s seems well priced for a Type R, though being heavily modified and not in the collector car condition we’re used to talking about obviously dings the value. Still, if you want an absolute riot of a ride, this ITR ticks a lot of boxes. So, would you buy it?
