bizarre noises
..i don't know if it's because acura decided not to put sound deadning in the type R or not, but do a lot of your "R" 's have too much road noise? Do your R 's also rattle a lot? I can always hear everything inside the car, like the panels rattling, road noise. Do your "R" s chassis creak sometimes? I can also hear the fuel or some type of liquid sound in the back along with something creaking like the axle or something. Please help and tell me if your R also has this problem. I use to have a LS and it was much more forgiving. I don't nkow if there's something wrong with my R or not. I plan to get it checked out at an Acura dealership asap.

dude, dont spread misinfo and lie to the guy.
the honest truth is, your car is on its last legs, and if you keep driving it will blow up on you.
sell it now, for $5 to me. I'll fix it.

Or maybe it's just the oil he's using. You know, dripping back into the pan and sloshing around and stuff. Switch to a 60 wt race oil and see if the problem disappears.

Yeah dude, your exhaust is WAY too quiet if you can hear the road noise.
Road noise is mostly because of the specific tires you use, but yeah the lack sound deadening doesn't help.
Fuel tank isn't baffled-- but unless you're running a gutted interior (no back seat) I'm gonna have to say your exhaust is too quiet again.
Be wary of suspension rattles and wheel bearing noise. Wheel bearings might sound like road noise, but you should be able to tell the difference (1 wheel vs. 4, doesn't depend on the road surface, might change sounds when turning left or right).
