Received my OEM center caps (4) and OEM tool bag today. The bag was just $13 CAD.
The caps were $25 CAD each. There are 6 more in stock in Canada (Calgary warehouse) with a few more coming in January and February according to my local dealership. The caps are on back order in the USA.

Wow that seems crazy cheap for something like those. I just ordered OEM RR calipers

tegra7 12-20-2017 03:21 PM

Do they have the caps in keiser grey?

TouringTeg 12-20-2017 05:36 PM

^ I didn't ask about the grey caps.

The really amazing part is the white caps retail for $50 CAD each in the US and my dealer sells them for $25 CAD. That never happens!

Price is posted at $16k now. Seems reasonable. What kind of stories does this R have?

twitchyzero 12-20-2017 08:10 PM

^ no interior or engine bay shots, 200km+, highly modified

wow dealerships still carry USDM ITR center caps? thought they would've been phased out 15 years ago

^ already gone but I see a few details;



No Longer Available - 2000 Acura Integra Type R Coupe $16,000.00


Original ITR with matching engine and transmission, upgraded parts but kept almost every original part that was removed. Not interested in dealing with tire kickers or individuals that want to part the vehicle out. Price is firm unless the cash is ...

Akord 12-26-2017 10:38 PM

wow good deal on the caps. need a replacement set

I remember someone mentioning a story for this car before?

Seems like a good deal at this price.

tofu1413 01-02-2018 02:32 PM

lots of people owned it.

used to have a real Mugen Kit on it and other Mugen parts.

was white but painted monte carlo blue.

PK-EK 01-02-2018 02:53 PM

That car was at a track day event that i attended this past summer in Edmonton (owner lives in Calgary)

can confirm it doesn't blow any *visible* smoke while hitting vtec
lol

TouringTeg 01-02-2018 03:05 PM

^ impressive lol

Looks strange with the OEM white wheels

twitchyzero 01-02-2018 03:11 PM

she's been around the block
surprised how relatively clean it still looks...even the wheel well was painted

tofu1413 01-02-2018 04:05 PM

I remember jmanhas owned it at one point too


I bought a used intake from the one of its owners 7 years ago........ (when it was still full mugen) it had bronze wedsport wheels on it too

TouringTeg 01-07-2018 08:11 PM

Sold my JDM Momo ITR SRS wheel about 2 yrs ago and tonight I bought it back! lol The wheel sat on his shelf since ever since he bought it. I missed the wheel a lot and reached out to the previous owner. Great guy and a fellow Honda nut. He had a GSR and now has a genuine CW 98 CTR and a different 100km 2000 GSR he is restoring.

VR6GTI 01-07-2018 08:17 PM

looks good

TouringTeg 01-07-2018 08:21 PM

Thanks VR6GTI for reminding me how much I missed the wheel haha What method did you use to clean yours up?

I want to try the DC2 titanium now as well and leave the OEM leather stitch on the shelf.

VR6GTI 01-07-2018 08:33 PM

I had vinyl/leather professional restore it

Iron Chef 01-08-2018 09:25 AM

Once you go aftermarket wheel it's hard to go back. I went personal neo grinta and I don't think u car ever go back to my 98+ srs wheel. There's just something about a smaller diameter wheel that just feels right on an ITR. That wheels is the best OEM you can get though.

What's the going rate for 98+ SRS wheel? How bout oem usdm wheel? I have a bunch of steering wheels I should prob just unload.

TouringTeg 01-08-2018 10:04 AM

I think I sold mine April 2016 for $340 and bought it back for $375. At least he delivered it to me within an hour of contacting him :jiggy:

The hard part with these OEM wheels is shipping with an air bag. If I was to sell it again I would not deal with shipping and sell to someone on the island or lower mainland.

I agree. I run the same Personal wheel in 330mm size and it's perfect. I find the 350mm sizing a bit too big but wifey likes the Spoon wheel in her car so that led me to sell my SRS one to VR6GTI, knowing that I wasn't going to use it in either car. I'm glad he got it restored and will put it to use.

Hard to find locally but they pop up on various FB groups for $300USD depending on condition. TouringTeg getting one delivered to his door from another local for $375CAD is a solid deal and would be difficult to replicate. As he mentioned, most importers had a hard time getting them due to the airbag and shipping issues so they are pretty rare up here. A USDM version is only worth about $100, give or take. Not a big market for those.

TouringTeg 01-19-2018 12:47 PM

This is random but an old friend told me today he owned 01 1316 CDM (full red interior intact) and sold it in 2006/2007 to someone in White Rock for $27k. It had 47,000 kms when he sold it and was all stock.

Anyone know if this ITR is still around?

Also I think this PY has been posted on CL before. 12k rebuilt:

A revscene member checked it out last time it was for sale (revyouup) I think? He mentioned that the front suspension was clunking.
