Did you had a current loan with Honda? Seems like oldsnail couldn't get it due to not having current loan. I still have my Honda loan open but I was going to pay it off before getting the CTR. I was reading that they consider loan within last 365 days.
EDIT: To answer my own question as my SA replied back to me. I will get 1% loyalty off the current rate of when I take possession of the car so it's not too bad. Just have to hope the financing rate doesn't increase when my car arrives next year.

If you had a loan within 365 days before purchase, you would've qualified according to Honda rep.

i never tried the otherway around, but the MDX is much heavier, and these rims are really easy to bend

I definitely will! I know that black OEM mats are still available but asking prices are just ridiculous($500+USD) for a pair... Unfortunately lloyd's doesn't offer the checkered print, So I ordered mine in black velour carpet. I've seen their product first hand at SEMA last year and was quite impressed with the quality.

I got them from jasonturbo when he sold his 01 ITR and had some spare parts. I think I paid around $550 CAD for them in 2016. I think they were around $600 to $650 CAD at the time. Getting them new is not super easy. My local dealer said they were NLA. Yet some dealers on ebay have the 2001 brand new.
Just an FYI 97-00 mats are checkered and are discontinued. I actually had a pair of gently used front checkered mats and sold them when I bought the car. They ended up in a PY in New York and that car sold on BAT. I should have kept them.
I know the Lloyds mats are popular with Porsche owners. I am curious if their durability is better than the euro R mats.

How do you keep track of your old MATS? i do not even know where any of my previous owned vehicles are right now.

Mostly a coincidence but the ITR world is small. The location of the BAT seller was the same as where I shipped the checkered mats to just a few week prior. I also recognized the wear pattern.
I just spoke to Campus Acura Victoria parts as I ordered a new ebrake button this morning. The chrome on mine is chipped and you can replace the button only.
They can still get the 2001 OEM mats for $570 CAD plus tax. For kicks I asked about getting new carpet. It was $920 CAD but is NLA.

The wheels are:
Enkei Ammodo
https://www.1010tires.com/Wheels/Enkei/Ammodo
18" x 8", Offset: 32
No spacers (the offset is pretty aggressive, and you can see they are near flush)
I bought the rims off craigslist for a whopping $200 for all 4. Fixed all the curbing damage, primed and painted them gold. I'm super happy with the result.
The center caps are from eBay, paid I think around $15. Painted them at the same time as the wheels. They do not fit these wheels, at all. And are being held in place right now with clear silicone... we will see how long that holds :-P
Tires:
Toyo Celsius
235/45/18

Looks like 1010 jacked their price back up for this size to $250+.

My biggest worry was clearing the Brembos, since no one seems to have tried these wheels on the CTR. And 1010 says they won't fit. But they do, and I'm quite surprised how good they look. Especially since I got them for cheaper than steelies.

Personally don't like the look of those.
I've seen one person that took the normal civic mudguards and trimmed them down to fit his CTR. We can't even get the Sport hatchback mudguards here in Canada yet. I think those would require the least amount of trimming to fit.

No more worse than any other new sub-$40k car on the market. Personally, I consider the Type R to be "sub-$40k" because it is, at the end of the day, a Civic...
Both my 96 4Runner and 96 Integra GSR had better paint than my TSX or my R. A lot of that is because paints of today are cheaper and are kinder to the environment. Unfortunately this is how it is across the board. My neighbor's brand new S3 has a fair amount of orange peel as well.
EDIT: Put my winters on today. Very pleased with the result. Looks a lot better than the stock wheels IMO...

Nice EK9 but that Spoon horn button looks fake to me. The ring is incorrect and the face looks too flat. Throwing ITR B18C bottom end parts in a B16B does not make it a "built" motor, especially since it smoked pretty bad in the video. If anything it takes away from the originality of the EK9 motor itself. Even considering a car to be a "Spoon" car without having the staple SW388 wheels is a bit cheese bag, especially since reps are sitting in their place. With that said, a $10K price would seem more reasonable and could be a good starting point for either a track car or a full-out resto.

Been doing maintenance for next season.
Oil and filter change
Stock wheels back on
Diagnose door panel rattle
Rear OE rotors, rear OEM brake pads
Replace ebrake button (pita)
Finally solve CEL P1457 evap after 5 months. Replacement P73-C04 ecu acquired from a friend and immobilizer bypass chip installed.
(discontinued and only 400 00 01 CDM ITR sold)
Wheels are refinished and new A center caps installed.

What VR6 said is accurate, the prep took a long time. Full clean, clay bar, further decontamination, then ceramic. The first coat took the longest as I let each panel sit 2.5 min to bond before wiping down. Second coat I let it sit about a minute. It turned out well, there is a insane glossy shine. Letting it cure 48 hours.

https://jalopnik.com/how-the-acura-integra-type-r-makes-modern-sport-compact-1795295614
his is a very real Integra Type R from Canada, folks. It’s number 50 out of only 197 built. As for the sunroof, Craig, the owner, bought the car second-hand from his local Acura dealer when he was 18. Imagine owning a car like this when you’re that age. Like all immature teenagers at the wheel of a Honda Type R, he did a few stupid things with it. He also crashed it. Thankfully, he was OK
But the car was beaten up pretty badly and needed an entirely new roof. The problem was that the only roofs that were readily available at the time were from an Integra GS-R, which all came with a sunroof. Craig could have waited for a real Type R roof section, or one from an Integra GS, but that would have taken weeks or even months.
He was 18. The kid wanted his car back, fast, so he could get back to racing the other kids with it. Plus, he figured a sunroof would be a cool creature comfort on his Type R. I mean why not, right? So he went with it.
He admits regretting his decision ever since and has plans to delete the glass.

Hey guys.
Yup that's my car for sale. If there's any questions, or thoughts on pricing adjustment, I honestly would appreciate that sorta input. I want it to be a fair asking price, because I know it's not a pristine example of the R. It's a mechanically sound ITR for around $11k usd that you can use as a track toy or weekend warrior and not feel guilty about it.
Owned the car since 2011, but it's time to move on now that I have different priorities in life.

Story is strange. I actually spoke to the seller and he sold a 99 earlier in the year and had a bunch of other cars. Flipper for sure.
It annoys me a bit when a car that was clearly very treasured by someone ends up in the hands of a flipper. They always seem to end up just being passed around endlessly and never actually enjoyed by anyone.

They're part of why the asking price for my car is so high. I know it will have to come down to sell, but a flipper will just see the price and scroll past while an enthusiast who actually wants it is more likely to reach out and see if the price can come down (it can, quite a bit actually). Maybe my thought process is way off and that's a stupid way to do things but it's not the end of the world if it doesn't sell.

How do people enjoy cars if they are treated like collectors to begin with. No one wants to "molest" it cause the resale value will plummet.
Different thought process for me, but I would do what I would do with my cars, and resale comes secondary, not a big deal if I can't get optimal value back.

It is kind of a balance. I modified my car a little but can easily go back to stock. I bought my car cheap enough I will still track it as intended.
With my 993 C4S I started to worry about other drivers too much. Plus it was not a good for track which I wanted to do again.
As cars get older people usually do reversible mods and focus on preserving and maintaining them. Also stock piling OEM parts before they are discontinued.

See how can you sit down in that and have a bad day? You’re stressed or tired or broke and your car might be super old, but you sit down in that atmosphere and everything is so simple and elegant and just works / feels right... gives your soul something to centre itself around.

I had a 95 V6 (very briefly) and holy shit that was a nice car to drive. It had the air purification system (not just some stupid filter, an actual air purifier), memory seats, even a car phone! Everything was electric, everything worked, going down a FSR it was so smooth I accidentally pulled too far ahead and lost the Jeeps and truck that were following me because they couldn't match the pace over the bumps :pokerface:
It was purchased cheap for a bachelor party and was not treated gently, in the end we only managed to kill it by jumping it 25ft and the nose down landing set off the airbags so it wouldn't restart. It was still running until we shut it off though. That thing was tough as nails and I wouldn't hesitate to pick one up as a daily driver.

all-weather mats for integra should be easy to come by, few pages back there's also carpets with very convincing OEM replacments
the recaro-made leather buckets i have have slight wear on the bolsters, nothing some simple dye and conditioning can't fix
the leather-wrapped momo is also 98% of its original condition 150k later
take good care (garaging it probably helps) or get professionals like upholestry service and you don't have to worry much about stockpiling costly Type-R/TRD/M etc specific parts...everything else you can find relatively easy...except for the radio! don't ever toss out a stock one even if you think it's a piece of shit from the 90s

Yeah, I have the same sounds coming from my FK8. Sounds like springs compressing/creaking at full left or right tilt.
I assumed it was the LSD or tires.
I also have a creaking sound while driving, only noticeable from the outside or with the window open when the noise can bounce off of something.

Exterior screeching noise ? low speed only? does it come from near the wheel? if it is, it is probably pebbles of rock stuck in your Brake calipers.

My steering wheel would shake a bit too when that happened.
When was your FK8 delivered?
I am thinking us FK8 owners shall drive to a Honda dealership at the same time and ask them for a through inspection of the LSD/transmission/suspension.
Plus, arriving in a group of FK8s with the same issue should get their attention.

Mines R-01818. It was probably delivered to the dealership sometime in mid 2017.
I was thinking of going in to Honda just cause I'm still under warranty, but haven't found the time yet. Also wanting for them to check out my other creaking noise too.
I did think it could be something was stuck in between my rotor dust cover, but again, haven't had a chance to take the wheel off and look at it.

I had my FK8 since OCT 2017
It happens often. (brakes in pebble)
I avoid going on unpaved roads now.
i removed my brake calipers at least twice so far to remove pebbles.
I have taken my car in and they have taken care most of my concerns.
LSD making noise is NORMAL.
Brakes making noise is NORMAL. This is what you get with race brakes. (i changed mine to HAWK , so sequel)
Suspension noise - peek under your car and look at the roof of your suspension. If you have orange cubes.. it should have been removed from PDI.. remove it if it is there.
Summer tires - probably not the best idea to have them on right now. but they are SOOO loud to begin with just normal driving
