Is the iconic Integra DC2R actually any good? | ReDriven Honda Integra Type R used car review.

Check out the Honda Integra Type R Cheat Sheet here: redriven.com/cheat_sheet/hond...
Looking for a used Honda Integra Type R? - carsforsale.com.au/honda/integra
With the world's motoring press labelling the Honda Integra Type R as the greatest front-wheel drive performance car ever and one of the best handling cars of all time, the DC2R has quite the reputation to live up to.
However, as the DC2 Integra Type R is now pushing 20 years of age and many examples are topping 200,000kms, the focussed performance car has most likely been driven very hard on a number of occasions during that time. While it is becoming an icon of motoring, are they worth the ever-increasing asking price and should you buy one at all?

At ReDriven, we’ll be taking you through the pros and cons of a huge range of used cars to see how well they’re going now that they’re a few years old, have thousands of kilometres on the clock, and are coming toward the end of their warranty, or maybe don’t have one at all.
Plus, thanks to our resident mechanic, Jim, you’ll find out what commonly goes wrong with them and what might need to be fixed.
Most importantly, we want to make ReDriven a voice for the most in-the-know used car experts there are...you guys.. See, you’re the ones that actually buy, live with, love and sometimes unfortunately hate the cars we’ll be reviewing.
So we want to hear your thoughts. Hit us up in the comments, or on Instagram and Facebook.
We’d love nothing more than for you to give us as much feedback as possible, so we can make this channel the best it can be.

Revving a Honda to it's limits is the MOST socially acceptable way to overtake someone period. If they don't like it they shouldn't be on the road.

[@sdi1111]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts (and feelings) about the Honda Integra Type R (DC2) What you experienced with this car is what I experience every day when I get into the driver's seat. I bought the car (Championship White - build No. 0101) in 2000 from a rich Chinese student. It was a year old, with 1,450 Kms on the clock. It also has the full body kit, AC and alarm (which still works). Now, after 21 years, I am about to clock 310,000Kms and have never touched the motor. I rev the car regularly to 9,000rpm and it never misses a beat. It has had 5 sets of tyres, 3 distributors, one wheel bearing and one radiator - simple repairs which I've done myself, at a total cost of less than $5,000 over 21 years.The original discs pad were replaced after 230,000Kms. As I say, the feeling of exhilaration and pleasure I get when I drive this car is hard to explain. I have the money to buy a new hot hatch, but simply cannot part with this car. The roar from the 1.8 litre engine at V-TEC is huge. True, most new little suburban cars can beat it at the lights, but it's the character and rawness of this car which will forever make it a legend!

[@dochvtech22]

[@pam18888]

Please don't ever sell it. It's a legacy that will be ruined with cheap mods, aftermarket 18" wheels and cut springs once sold. It's a collector's hopefully you can hand down in the future.

[@sdi1111]

The car is stock, except for a better air filter system. I promised it to my son, who keeps asking for it, but I just can't part with it. Clocking 320,000Kms now and coming home today let rip along our winding hyway, leaving a few V8 utes eating my dust! This car seems to run better every day! Yes, it's an orgasm every time I drive it!

Meh, the K24A3/K24A2 is a more practical platform for everyday use. Because it has way more torque for putting around and overtaking. It takes a lot of modding to get it to rev this high though, not saying its without trade-offs.

[@danbywaters6123]

I worked with a guy who bought one of these brand new back in 2001. There is something really magical about the noise that these engines make on the upper 1/2 of the tacho. A real special little machine.... Sadly, the owner overcooked a corner in his and binned it into a power pole. Thankfully all occupants escaped uninjured, but the car was written off. I suspect that a lot of Type R's probably suffered this kind of sad ending....

Sold my similar Civic VTiR (B16A screamer) a few years back. Your review captures the feel of these types of 90's Honda screamers. You sound like you're qualifying for pole on an F1 grid (when they used to sound good), but you're just driving to work. So a great car to enjoy, push hard enough to enjoy, and not go so fast that you end up catching a bus due to no license. The lack of torque when using one as a daily does get old however. But as a fun weekender, hills drive, track day fun machine, well, you could do far worse.

I had the pleasure of owning a 1999 DC2 here in Melbourne (Australia).... in which I clocked up 165,000 kms (from new) & enjoyed 13 track days during my 5.5 years of driving nirvana. I was utterly addicted to the VTEC scream of the B18C engine, the wonderfully slick gearbox, dynamic handling & complete package of Honda engineering. Even 17 years on & after driving many higher spec cars, the memories of the DC2 remain as some of my best driving experiences ==> I would buy another one anytime, for future track fun!

Before that i had been in an accident crashing into a medium sized 4x4 while doing 70 km/h (the 4x4 was actually reversing quite fast) , i was also completely unharmed , except for a bruise on my knee from hitting the ignition key. 10 years ago i traded in a E46 BMW M3 for my second ITR , and have had it since then.

I'm really enjoying these reviews. You guys absolutely "get it" with each car. Taking into account what it is, when it was designed, and what it was supposed to do. From the 60 Series Landcruiser (if you thought this was gonna be fast, then you're an idiot 🤣), to the no-torque but all-revs of the Integra. They are both exactly what they were supposed to be. I totally understand that some people don't like the way the early VTEC engines worked. But they did exactly what they were supposed to do. I love a torquey (yeah, that's a word) engine, but that isn't what this car was. These were more like a motorcycle engine in a car. They love to rev. They feel and sound fantastic when they are revving. And they can do it all day long. Forget the fuel consumption and just rev the damn thing. The look on your face when you VTEC'd it (yeah, that's a word) made me so jealous. Kind of made me feel like I was right there with you. That review was fantastic. It really captured the spirit of the car.

I think atleast for the us models you have to understand something in the states at one point these could be had for 7-12k usd and most examples were driven and had repairs done of the common and low value driver car. These cars are worth saving. If the car is driveable and for right money all of these cars are worth saving or using for right purpose. Shoddy repairs from past when cars were done are now worth correcting but obviously make cars worth less money up front.

[@peteh3313]

Quick note re: your fact sheet. It says that the 4 round lights changed in Australia, the UK and US to rectangular ones. They didn't. JDM style rectangular lights are entire front clips that were imported and bolted up, unless you mean that was the release date of the car that your are referring to. The paragraph is a bit obscure - most likely a grammar issue. In fact Aussie DC2R with the JDM nose are not how they left the factory - if you are after a "pure" Aussie spec, it needs the quads. Both nose cones look great though. One other fact sheet nit-pick: Aussie spec came with 4-2-1 header, 4-1 is JDM spec

biggest issue with most honda's is crunch going from 2nd to 3rd, also burning oil...which is to be exected from a 25 year old 9000rpm engine

[@touringteg]

On my second Integra Type R and never had that crunch. My last one burned and just needed valve stem seals replaced.

As a current long time owner of a 149,000 km 2001 Championship White model, I can say it truly is an amazing car to drive and own, I get regular envious glances from Porsche and Ferrari owner's. Two pieces of advice for any future DC2 owner; don't modify the suspensions too much or excessively alter the weight distribution through lightening, it's perfect for the street as is, and carry oil with you, at all times, B18C's are thirsty:)

I owned a 2001 Itr, Bought it in 2003 under 20k miles and those few years, car has been beaten to shit and not taken care of. I was left with a mess.. i can’t imagine a car that is 20+ yr, that hasn’t been very very well taken care of.

Please Don’t Forget to Review the CLS 63 AMG 2012-2017 Mate😄😄🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@ReDriven]

100% mate. We're currently trying to find one to review. Fingers crossed it happens soon. - AK

[@NickV1978]

Spot on review! I own one of these in the UK and its hands down one of the the best cars I've ever driven; the overall package is unmatched in its class and beyond IMHO....V685 ELT for sale on AT check it out!

Second on the most Aussie review ever. 😂 Good though. Have one myself as a daily driver(JDM 98 spec) for 15 years. I can even get it under 6litres per 100k. If I really want to... Those yellow Recaros are daft money on the secondhand market. Japan, Australia and a 200 run of cars in Switzerland of all places got them. I've done over 100k in mine and it's been scarily reliable. I've replaced a dizzy cap and coil(known weak spot) and various bushes, a rebuilt alternator and that's it other than oil/beltfliter changes. Oh and recently a clutch at 170k. Engine still doesn't burn any oil. You can even get under 6ltrs/100k if you _really_ try. Weak spots? Like you say change the oil regularly. Don't go near Vtec until it's fully warmed up. Not doing both of those has left a lot of these running like two strokes. Rust. Now I'm in Ireland and we only see the sun on the telly, so... but the main place to look for is the rear sill and wheelarch area. A tiny bit of bubbling there almost certainly means a lot of hidden rot. Make sure you get an original example with no fast and furious "upgrades" as original parts can be hard to track down and expensive. Funny enough I found them much more prone to oversteer on the limit. That LSD really pulls the front in. Put a couple of bald Chinese ditch finders on the back wheels and you could damn near enter a drifting competiion. 😄

Awesome comment mate. Thanks so much. - AK

[@jaykazama9132]

Beautiful vehicle. I wish you guys had access to a drag strip or a track. I really wanted to see you hit VTEC 0-100kph and the quarter mile. I just wanted to hear her scream.

One day Jay, one day it'll happen. Then I can fulfil my dream of racing Mat Watson and Doug DeMuro! - AK
