the R trim was not an option for the 97-97 styled accords...the "top of the line" was the SiR....its bascially your basic accord, with an H22A....chassis codes are CD6 for the sedan and CD8 for the coupe

ok, the euro-r and ATR are totally different cars...just google them dude, you'll se plenty of pictures.
what the **** do you mean by a JDM conversion. i already told you all you need is an H22a w/o LSD, a different climate controls, a rear lip spoiler, and a couple of different badges. theres a TON of swapped accords.

Re: (di3go)
alright buddy, you need to start off by using punctuation...i had the hardest damn time reading your first post...but i did get a kick out of it because for some reason the way you wrote things just made me think napolean dynomite was posting online...but anyways, back on topic...
as for your original question, I will give you a brief history of the world pertaining to performance accords...
the 5th gen accords were only available as an SiR for the "sportier" end of the line...as was stated, they came in both coupes and sedans, sporting the original h22a...an lsd was available on the manual transmission cars only...the SiR's look like this:
now, once the 6th generation of the accord came about, that's when the usdm and jdm cars took different routes...the accord we got in america was called the Inspire in Japan...unfortunately, we never got their 6th generation accord...but it came in all the regular models (dx-ex), plus the SiR-T and Euro-R...they look like this respectively:
now there was also a very rare car over there called the Accord U.S. Wagon which carried the engine designated H23A...this was the rare 11:1 2.3 vtec motor making 220 hp and 169 lb/ft tourque mated to an lsd equipped tranny...it had a blue valve cover, but should not be confused with the all too common h23 vtec that many engine dealers create from the stock h23 bottom end and h22 vtec head sold at insanely high prices...this motor is EXTREMELY rare and I'd be very surprised if you could find one...
and finally, the infamous Accord Type R which was the European only car...it used the H22a7 which had 220 hp and 163 lb/ft tourque...it also came in the full type-r fashion of red emblems, larger wheels, dual exhaust, recaro seats, and the wing in the back...it looks like this:
now, onto your inquiry into doing a "jdm conversion" on the accord...the only conversion you can do with a 5th gen is to change out the headlights for the black housing headlights, change the front amber blinkers for the clear with amber insert blinkers, add the side markers, remove the side moldings (on sedan only), and finally perform the engine swap with an h22...good luck getting the digital climate controls to hook up to the usdm car...
the type r and euro r are both significantly smaller than the american accords in both width and length...performing such a conversion would require a ton of custom fabrication as it's not a bolt on affair...the integras and civics both complete conversions easily as all the parts are bolt on...since this is not the case, cutting, welding, and creating new pieces and parts would be in the works...since you said you merely wanted a daily drive, i doubt you would want to go to such lengths to perform such a pointless conversion...

Re: (fw190bvi)
For the 96/97 model, do they make the clear bumper lense with the orange center tab like the 94/95 model. I have never seen em for the 96/97 accord yet if they do make them.

Re: accord type-r/euro-r years (Imported_Illuzionz)
tail lights look different, and the wing.
the front end i don't think u can swap parts from, without a lot of modification.
Type-R grill might be possible.
I think the bolt pattern is different.
Steering wheel, and recaro interior.
lots of work to convert
your accord will look closer to this (you should look at finding the Accord SiR)

The reason most people don't have a H22-T as their daily driver is 1)unless built, anything over 4-6 PSI WELL tuned is unreliable. 2)if you own a sleeved and built h22, and then you turbo it, more than likely it's worth more money than the accord chassis times two or three, sure your insured for that if you crash it? 3) most people (MOST) don't really want a 400 WHP FWD car to drive to work every morning, it's a waste of money. Waita throw 10k into a motor just to put your daily driving mileage on it. I bet you make hella gas mileage when your boosting 15-20 PSI too.
