Is the Acura Intergra GS-R the Type R ? If not, how can you tell.

I believe it is. I have a friend who rambles for hours on end to me about street racing cars, and remember him talking about the Integra engines being a Type R. I would call an Acura/Honda dealer to be sure.

Type R's are really good

No its not a type R. Its just the beggining letters on the block stamp. You can have a Type R Civic/Teggy imported from Japan, but they dont sell any USDM versions of the type R here.

ummm... no... type-r's and gsr's are different. the motors are different. the gsr produces 180 hp at the crank, whereas the type-r produces 200hp at the crank. thats the usdm models of each. i think the jdm type-r puts out 220 at the crank. the gsr is not the best integ out there, the type r is. but good luck finding an american spec type r, let alone a jdm type r. i believe they only borught about 200 usdm type r's per year for a couple of years.

when i said the GSR was teh best one, i was referring to the normal integra's not including the type R
