Ok, i've searched both archive and recent and got through with some mixed info and alot of dead links. Heres the dilemma. So I have been looking for an oem itr muffler for quite some time now, found one on craigslist, bought it today. The listing was for $125.00 he said it was a typo and wanted about 200,we settled at 150. I went ahead and purchased it. It looked legit till i started browsing Honda-tech, and realized something wasn't right. Now the pics are shitty ill try to get better ones asap. So i just need to be reassured if it is a real ITR or not.




I know theres alot of type r guys here who will be able to help me out. It will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hard to tell from your pics.

 

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, the pics suck, but what i need to know is if the tip is bolted on or welded on. Mines is bolted on and every type r one i see is welded. Which is confusing me.

OEM Type R muffler has a tip which is welded on.

 

Thank you very much for the solid information. I guess i will be contacting him tomorrow and getting a refund!

 

I hope you get the refund, good luck

 

in for results

 

yep, that's a GSR... not a TYPE R

 

for sure not type R

 

That's not a type r muffler. The tip doesn't have a bolt under it.
Here is a picture of a type r muffler.

 

thanks guys

 

200bucks asking price holy shiet! i boought mines for 50!

 

Not only did you pay 150 bucks but you paid 150 bucks for something that looks like crap.

 

Yeah, i got screwed over. Today I called him up, he refused to believe me. And now isn't answering my phone calls. Im gonna try a few things since I have his place of work "supposedly" since he is a business owner of a performance shop. Hopefully i can get my money back, and i think im just going to get a vibrant since finding an ITR is somewhat difficult.

 

i have a bone stock itr catback for you or anyone who needs it - just sitting in my garage taking up space. buy now! (just to help out a fellow itr owner of course. )

 

I bought a brand new ITR axle back the other day from this place Showcase Honda for $197 shipped.

 

I have just the axle back if you are wanting one still. Shoot me a pm if you are interested. It is USDM Type R and it is off of my car.

 

Craigslist is full of slimeballs...hope it gets resolved in your favor

 

that **** is hella fake..lol..man get your $$$$$back

 

Beside scammers lurking on Craiglist, there are a lots of in-experience sellers who can not tell from one part to another.
