when i read reviews on the integra, and they mention the trim levels, i always see them talk about the gsr and then when they mention the type r, they say it is a modified version of the gsr.

so im wondering, does the type r body and gsr body have any dramatic differences, in terms of suspension parts and handling?

 

yes, there are several differences. The type R uses the Base model chasis (non sunroof) stiffer springs, a b18c5, bigger better brakes, lighter, nicer interior, stiffer chasis. Larger front and rear sway bars.

 

oh, that makes sense, i have been wondering because u realli never hear people swapping gsr parts with type r parts
