DC5 Honda Integra type R 2001.07 :
Honda announced the release of DC5 Honda Integra type R in Japan on July
2.
The Honda Integra type R is a limited edition model aimed purely at the
most serious street racers. The special color of the championship white
with the red emblem comes from 1965 when Honda won the F-1 for the first
time.
DC5 Honda Integra type-R is powered by the K20A 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine and adopts a new 6-speed manual transmission. The suspension adopts a newly developed toe control link front strut suspension and reactive-link double wishbone rear suspension.
The Honda Integra type R is also equipped with RECARO front bucket seats, a leather wrapped MOMO steering wheel, aluminum pedals, an aluminum shift knob, an aluminum side brake knob, exclusive aero parts, BREMBO front brakes, and aluminum 4pod calipers.
The K20A type-R engine combines the high-rev intake/exhaust valve timing
and lift variability of VTEC1 technology with VTC(variable timing control)
to achieve a maximum power output of 220PS. Short single-passage isometric
intake manifold ensures excellent intake inertia even at high engine speeds.
Connecting rods and a high-rigidity crankshaft are fashioned from high-strength
materials. The K20A type-R engine is approximately 10kg lighter than the
B18C type-R engine.
A newly developed close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission uses multiple
synchronizing cones for all gears, including a triple-cone synchronizer
in 1st and 2nd gears and a double-cone synchronizer in 3rd through 6th
gears. An ultra-lightweight forged chrome-molybdenum steel flywheel and
Torque induction-type Helical LSD are installed.
2003.09 : DC5 Honda Integra type R is equipped with keyless entry system
with answer back and colored washer nozzle.
2004.09 : There were some minor changes. Suspension performance has been
improved. A mild facelift for the Honda Integra type R includes new front
headlight and taillight design, new front and rear bumpers, and side garnishes.
