What is the context?

Because I'm not going to sit here and build a list of the technical specs if you're not going to understand it.

Changes made to the Integra Type-R over the GSR include:
  • Lower overall ride height by 15 mm (0.60 in.)

The following modifications have been made to the Type R's front suspension:
  • A new aluminum shock tower bar complements the 24mm stabilizer bar that is now equipped with ball joints instead of rubber bushings.
  • The spring and damping rates have been greatly increased to improve performance handling.
  • Front spring rate has been increased by 22%, with a 115% increase in compression damping, and a 70% increase in rebound damping.
  • Damper mounting bushing stiffness has been increased five-fold.

The following modifications have been made to the Type R's rear suspension:
  • The spring has been changed from a straight-rate to a progressive-rate spring, increasing for across the entire range.
  • Damping rates have been increased with compression damping settings in the progressive-valve unit increasing by 66%, and rebound damping doing up 31%.
  • The diameter of the stabilizer bar has been greatly increased from 13mm to 22mm to reduce body roll.

Other notable difference the Type R has over the GSR:
  • The rear wheel bearing span within the rear-wheel hub has been increased by 10mm. These larger bearings increase bearing rigidity by 30% and improve camber rigidity by 10%.
  • Performance rods (structrual braces) have been added to the rear frame end and rear suspension lower arm.
  • Body reinforcements (thicker sheet metal) have been made in several key areas, including the rear wheel housing, rear piller upper garter (c-pillers), rear roof rail upper, rear wheel arch extension, rear lower arm bracket (rear cross member), and rear damper gusset.
