Default I wanna know about the accord type r...

Hey guys what's up Im new around this place. My friend's told me you ppl are pretty smart about ne thing Honda. ok well I gotta a few questions about the type r. what engin is it? h22 or f20? is there a japanese type r accord or are they all european?

ok I have a 98 accord LX although the body styles are a little different I was wondering if any of the type r front end parts match up with out any really heavy modification. I kinda wanna make a type r look a like but I know the rear end is quiet different from the rear doors back. Ohh and where could I pick up true type r parts besides ebay? thanx

i believe the accord type r motor is a F20. it has 200 hp and 145 torque. it would be the best motor to put into an accord in my opinion.

You're wrong. Accord Type R was made in the UK. Engine H22A7 212hp 157tq. I doubt this engine is available in the US. I'm sure you meant Accord Euro R made in Japan with F20B engines which happen to be imported to the States.

isnt the euro r european?
I kinda wanna keep my car JDM but I heard that there arent many JDM parts for my car. I was suggested to get euro r parts for my car and that it could be done. I just have no idea where to go.

It is. But EURO-this-and that is a marketing ploy in the JDM.
