I just finished the 98 Spec R in time for the show, along with Jspecwest US ITR with the Cwest kit. I will try and post pics..
Its a complete JDM RHD 98 SPEC R w.HID..4-1 stock..etc..
Mods include:
Spoon Front Lip
Carbon Fiber hood
WW Side skirts
Shaved Wing
Arogosta Top line suspension w/pillowballs
Mugen Pedals
Volk 17" GTN wheels in gunmetal with Pirelli P7000
Pictures are a little ricey from the show, but hey got to support the sponsors




The engine is all stock..the Venom bottle was just a hood prop

 

Here is a couple shots from the track..
The car was able to manage a 14.7 w. NO engine mods, on 17's w.Pirelli tires



BTW..it has a Washington State Clean title

 

Marry me please. I love it love it love it love it. And it has no wing . Please dont ever ever put a wing on it.

 

No wing ever planned
BTW: RHD means RIGHT HAND DRIVE..completely legally registed with clean title
The car has stayed low, like thsow pics..it was a bit high at the track. Believe it or not the Arogosta coilovers actually ride just as good..if not better the lower they go

My friends 2001 US ITR. JDM front

Together creating some attention

 

1) how does one get sponsored, what do u have to do once u have sponsorship?

2) is it really werid driving on the right i cant even imagine...

 

I'm more interested in how you got the car here legally with a clean title.

BTW, your car is BADASS.

Just thought I'd share.

 

yes sir, may i have another

 

Beautifull car! Is that a Venom N20 bottle holding up yer hood? Any plans to squeeze?

Jon

 

Pat, if that's you lol. I was goin to import one myself awhile back, but they were charging me a arm and a leg lol.

Nice car.

 

Arogosta? How do they ride compared to a normal ITR's ride? I'm looking to supply them to the US and Canada but didn't know how they do since there not known here...except in Europe and Japan.

 

dohcvtec19:
Are those the Volk Racing GTN wheels?

 

alright...i believe everyone here wants to know how you got that street legal.

so please, please, please, purty please, with cherry on top...spill it! lol

c'mon...it's torturing enough to see it in the pics...just tell us.

 

Ill tell you...

1) You have to have CASH
2) The rest is a secret...

Pat your car is tight...you should come up to Boom in Canada and park next to me...The two Speed Concepts cars

 

it's that car again oh man.. so super nice.

and please enlighten us on your suspension.

 

dood you forgot to switch over to jdm right hand drive rmirrors. they are pointing to the left seat still! lame

 

You guys cars are very nice. It's hard to believe that peeps in Vancouver, WA are pulling the strings on these cars. j/k (I'm from Bellevue. hehe.) One question that I have is... is the scene down there more towards "show" then "go"? Just wondering 'cuz I saw 3 ITR's posted with major body mods, but not enough engine mods. Just wondering.

 

so what? I can save up some money. Take a little trip to Japan to visit the famous Spoon Headquarters. Drop the check in their laps. Pick up a Spoon ITR and fly home with it?

What about different emissions standard? What about different windshield glass? What about different crash-test standards?

Man, that is something worth doing.

 

Step #1: Cut off front half of car.
Step #2: Weld on front half of JDM Type R
That's how you get a clean title RHD Integra Type R.

 

Well wrong guess...
there is no cutting, or welding a front clip...and using a US ITR...
This is a complete JDM 98 SPEC R from firewall vin, to emergency flare..to backseat...to rear LCA's
The car was given a complete new US vin..and how it was done is a secret..and if someone needed it done..I would show them..but to tell everyone would allow everyone to potentially have a RHD type R...and well I am selfish (but like I said H-T members I will help if they need it)

The suspension honestly is the nest I have ever expereience..I hace riddenin the likes of H&R, Sustec, GC, Progress, Apex N1, and in my personal experience the agrogosta blows them away. Don't get me wrong they are all good, but these are 14 way soft-stiffen with pillowballs. I got 2 tickets in 2 days testing these out on turns

Those are the VOLK GTN w/pirelli tires in gunmetal, thanks to Tony @ speed concept 503-356-2222. He is also offering a show special brand new Drag 3 turbo kits $2500 +sh. Give him a call and tell him the RHD type R sent you (shameless plus)

Jared when is the boom show? I am down, but I am on vacation until july 24th, so let me know whats up. Your car looks damn good btw...

If anyone is interested I would consider selling this car for 36k. Considering it has 23km..so ~12k US miles...all stock engine..HID..real authentic JDM R w. clean US title you can't beat it. You might end up spending this much between car and mods to get where this one is, and still be left hand drive.

Honestly RHD is more fun in my opinion. It took 2-3 days toget used to it, and positioning it..but now it would be hard to go back.

Thanks for the comments..
feel free to ask any questions..

 

Attn Racer-X.
If you started to distribute them there is a good chance I would be your biggest customer. My friends would all buy them, and myself for furture cars. It was a real hassle getting my current ones...but well worth it...

The registration process is not an easy process..and I think in any other state it would be impossible. Washington does not require emission on 97 or newer..this being a 98 fits the exception. There are various other details, and things you must do..and a considerabe amount of money..and tax. Was it a hassle? YES!! Would I do it again? YES!! I have 2 more coming

 

$36,000! Do you know what you can get with that? I dont like the rims, I hate the side skirts (C-Westin, right) and the worst of all the side markers!!! Damn I hate those things! I dont know why they even sell them as aftermarket items.
Cutting a hole in the side of a car is not good. It's nice and clean though. I would spent all that money on the motor or building a hybrid and whoop *** all over the place.
Whatever floats your boat.

 

very, very nice man!!!!!
i wish mine looked that nice, gotta be weird driving on the wrong side though.

 

ok. As of right now, I officially expressed interest in the car.

Anyone who gets in the way will be dealt with.
