Tyee Imports has had an ugly one for months. (Maybe over a year?) Needs lots of work but just 76kms. Good for a track car or someone who has a lot of spare OEM parts.

A DB8R is the next build for me. The only acceptable ITR RHD variant. CW only though. Been saving all my Spoon parts for it.

That's a nice black one, but not $18K nice :rukidding:

CL1 was a slightly heavier, more refined shell than the DC2.


Nicer torque on the H22, just didnt rev as high or quickly as the B18C.


its like a daily driver variant of the DC2 imo.

That's where I'd be at as well. I dislike the '96 spec with the 5 lug swap. I'd much prefer the '98 spec and would probably pay the asking price if it was. I may pop by, have a look at it and make an offer. Velocity had a '98 DB8 in CW that sold last year but apparently it was rough.

Vogue Metallic Silver is a boss color and Jay from ITR Expo has a nice '96 spec. I'd love me some R81 action but no DB8 in that color. An EU LHD example is still on the bucket list though.

if this is still in the cards in a few years with a strong dollar again, I'll be interested too haha

[white rocket]

^^yeah, that's the one. Price got down to $9,800 at one point. Pretty sure it sold for less than that. It had rough paint, oxidized bolts throughout, trunk leaked, engine bay looked terrible, etc. Don't recall any mention of the mechanical integrity.

I'm curious if the ITR tax has hit the JDM versions now. There were a handful of '96 specs for sale locally here over the last few years and they all seemed to average in the $10K range. The U.S. market is so vastly different(and crazy expensive with the exchange) so it's hard to compare it to Canada considering that the import rules are different. There's a '98 spec with 154,000kms for $17,000USD on FB. That just seems ridiculous to me but the average U.S. enthusiast goes freaking bananas for RHD stuff to the point that they covert LHD Intregra's and Civic's.

I don't follow the JDM auctions or anything but for those that have, has the stock dwindled or has pricing gone up at all? Are local Japanese enthusiasts interested in these cars more now than before and are they staying local? I'm completely out of touch on the European market but curious on the current worldwide demand and if it has increased, therefore raising prices and depleting inventory.

[twitchyzero]

i want to say it'll vary state-by-state
driving anything newer than 25 years old just seems like massive risk as I'm sure most of them are through loopholes/grey areas.

havent followed it for a few years but given that the hype for it locally appears to have died down but USDM stuff has shot up, I want to say its inventory if drying out is due to

1. UK folks buying them ( so I've read)
2. most are striped away for parts...remember photos of the Type R grave several pages back? (this is probably a bigger factor)

just make sure that the hub is dc2(r) and not ek(9) because the splines don't match. back in the day i had to have a custom hub machined out of steel and a dc2 splined neck welded together to make it work...

From what I read ICBC changed their policy on special editions. The Type R is considered the same as all Integra's so it does not qualify as low production.

Same goes for other cars. I looked into it for my 993 C4S and although the C4S had just under the production limit, the 95-98 911 (993) again are all considered the same.

We have to wait until our cars are 25 years old. That is unless they extend the time to 30 years or more like ICBC is hinting at. They did a survey recently to collect more data on what people want out of the collector program etc.

but because ITR none of the above applies :D

[SumAznGuy]

Where did you get them? What's a better setup, with a high budget?

Koni yellows with CG is the best bang for the buck suspension setup.

That being said, what is your plans for the car?
I thought you were still planning on giving it to your son?

If you go with Koni's and GC's, what your plans on with the car will dictate what spring rates you get.
I can't remember what spring rates they recommend, but I would go with minimum 400 ft/lb springs.
Stock Koni yellow's can handle up to 600 ft/lb springs.

[tofu1413]

Where did you get them? What's a better setup, with a high budget?

THmotorsports... shipped to Point roberts.


its all the set 80% of what people would need....

[white rocket]

What's a better setup, with a high budget?

Eibach R2, KW V3, Spoon N1, and Tein Super Racing are all pretty high end. Mugen N1 or NZ (if you can find them). JRZ and Moton if you're darn near a professional driver.

The Koni/GC combo will serve it's purpose for a street driven vehicle that sees lapping days. You can always get stiffer springs as you progress and have the Koni's revalved to handle the stiffer springs if you go stiffer than what the off the shelf versions can handle.

Garage Five would be my first source but there are plenty of companies that can source these for you.

[snake]

Thanks for the info and advice. I contacted Ground Control direct, not sure if taxes/duty and shipping will kill the deal.
Kick myself for missing out on Tofu and Loong selling their old GC Koni!

I'd love to go back but life, kids, job, etc always gets in the way. I do consider going each year though. Perhaps we'll chat closer to the date so I know what my schedule looks like.

[SumAznGuy]

The KW V3 for $1600 should've scrubbed it down, before taking pics. Looks like something I just threw out.

The other thing, and I hate to be the one saying it, is that seeing how worn they look, I would also factor in about the $600-800 (might be $1000 with our shitty exchange rate) to ship and have them rebuilt.

[Iron Chef]

Attending expo is definitely on the bucket list but there always on the east coast and it would be hard to justify the road trip and track day on the other side of the country. Eibach honda meet with ITR section would be the next best thing and the road trip down the pacific coast highway would be worth it. The only crappy thing about Eibach is , its only a hard park fest. Best thing about Expo is being on track with the other ITR's, paying homage to its racing heritage.

unless everyone scuffs their front lip like that, i think you are right... wasn't it pretty rough?

[TouringTeg]

Oo LHD with all the JDM goodies. Looks like a fun car.

I think it is a lot safer to leave your ITR in a parking garage these days since the Honda / Acura modding scene has passed it's prime. Golden era Hondas are disappearing, kids grow up and and tastes change. Many have moved away from modding Civic's.

I've fixed up a few over past couple years and finding parts at the junk yard is getting more difficult (ex CRX parts). I have talked to the owners and the cars have been picked over, less people are keeping them on the road and wreckers need the space for more profitable parts cars so they get crushed.

[white rocket]

unless everyone scuffs their front lip like that, i think you are right... wasn't it pretty rough?

Rear end collision for $4K, needs repaint, rings were gone, needed a clutch, overall generally beat up. Someone mentioned that the seller would have taken $8500 at the time it was for sale. A decent deal and I considered it but to get it to a quality level you'd be spending well over $10K and now your stuck with a 210K kms ITR that had previous damage. Or a DIY'er could re-ring it, fix the clutch and have it as a track car.

[SumAznGuy]

I got v1s in better condition than that for $400. By the time they are like new again, you could have purchased new, because I'd certainly plan for a rebuild on almost any used coils.

"If" I was to buy them, $180 usd per corner to rebuild plus $50 for shipping to them and return ship.
With the exchange rate, That is just over $1000 cdn. The rear springs are too soft so factor $80 usd per spring plus $20 shipping, that is an additional $243 cdn.
$1600 plus $1000 plus $243 = $2843.
Right now, TR has them on sale $1949.50 usd plus shipping. Not sure, gonna guess $100 usd for shipping.
That is roughly $3100 tax incl to the border.
All that to save $250. :awwyeah:

DC2 > DC5. I'll take a B18C and double wishbone over K20A and MacPherson struts any day of the week.

Isn't K20A something like 40 lbs lighter than B18 though?

I think the Integra Type-R should've been DC2 with K20

IMO, the EP3 is the red-headed step child of the "R" lineage. DC5R would be more desirable. I'm pretty biased though and don't really like either one.

if you don't mind heavily modified this RSX could be worthwhile.

https://www.revscene.net/forums/711544-2004-pwp-acura-rsx-type-s.html

interesting how the DC5 is less alluring because of macpherson struts..and I guess looks? I think the mid-cycle refresh looks better than DC2 (i'm biased). Despite its chunkier looks and reinforced safety features, it doesn't weigh more than the previous generation.

The K20 is a lot more potent and responds well to mods. Some don't like its dentist drill audio. I feel the DC2 experience is more visceral and raw...but I wouldn't discredit the DC5.

[R. Mutt]

The DC5's are really fun cars to drive. My good friend had a semi-stripped, fbo DC5 with toda cams tuned with a Hondata KPro. It made just over 250 whp all motor on a dynojet. When I took the car for a spin he told me to be careful because it's faster than you think. Sure enough I pooped a little giving it the beans. I'd never experienced so much torque steer in a fwd car. It was obnoxiously loud and pulled extremely hard for a naturally aspirated car - one of the few N/A cars that I consider fast even to this day. And while I do think the DC2 wins in the looks dept, the DC5 is a good looking car in it's own right...but that's all relative. Still no n/a B18C will pull like a K20C

[white rocket]

^^^Agreed. The K series is a superior motor in many respects although I dislike the cable shifting. However, companies like K-Tuned and Hybrid Racing have nice shifter boxes that may better the shifting feel.

A K swap DC2R is a wicked combo and 300whp is not unobtainable with todays parts selections.

Just for shits and giggles, let's talk about this car and what it would take to make it stockish and how much a comparable sold for on BAT.

Full sand down and repaint. Get rid of any sign of blue. I am guessing $3-5K?
Sell off the Spoon brakes and get reman stockers.
Look for stock suspension.
Would you leave it as JDM front end or make it USDM front end again?

[TouringTeg]

I was quoted 6k plus tax no parts for respray and rear quarter rust repair. Plus you need new stickers $300 and other trim that breaks or is worn out

[westopher]

Car has a clean title right? I bet you could definitely make money on it if you put some effort and money into it, but I wouldn't put the time in to make 5k or so. It would be fun bringing it back to glory though if you wanted to keep it.

[TouringTeg]

I would probably leave the JDM front and Spoon brakes. Paint it CW again and enjoy it. It will still sell for good money down the road.

Some cars that are tastefully modded will still bring in good money. A heavily modded single turbo 600 whp Supra TT 6 spd is still doing to do well even it was originally an NA auto

[white rocket]

First and foremost, a chassis check is needed to ensure that there have been no collisions. A collision on a track would not show up on any accident check as there is no insurance. Once that has been established and that there are no major accident claims already on the car, throw at least $15k at it for a full restore. The amount of work that goes into a color change is astronomical although the bay is still original so perhaps the jambs and whatnot are still white as well. Who knows what's missing and needs replacing. What's the mileage again? 160k kms?

I dunno, if you own a body shop and put in your own work then yeah, perhaps a profit is possible. That poor car has been passed around more than a salty hooker.

Interesting about the Supra. That's crazy an NA auto converted to 6 spd TT will fetch enough to make the swap worth it.

If you planned on keeping the ITR, then that is different. But from a flipping POV, I kind of agree with Westopher. All that work to make $5K.

So say $6500 for respray and misc parts. Car cost $10K.
Sell the brakes for $1K and buy remans for $300.

Buy used ITR correct wheels $400
Sell JDM Recaro's $1000

[white rocket]

From what I remember in previous pics, the Mugen cluster is fake. It had a weird line showing where the "redline" should be. The original one from Mugen never had that marking. The silver bezel looked real from what I can recall though. Clearly the Mugen-ness of the car had been stripped over time as it passed from owner to owner.

Car had 175K's.
For sale post on CL showed door jams and doors behind the rubber was properly painted blue. Only white was the engine bay and underside of the car.
I remember one of the fenders were dented and had some surface rust.
16 inch rota's gotta go.

[Iron Chef]

At 175k you really gotta ask yourself does it still drive like an ITR and if not what would it take to mechanically restore back to ITR specs.

90% chance it's burning oil and has a grind or 2. What's the point of having an itr when you can't drive it like one.

Budget 10k for a mechanical resto to refresh engine trans and suspension. I'd say your into for 15k + the cost of the car to get it back to its former glory and a trackable condition. You could do it all in stages over the course of a couple years. Let's be realistic , any 20yr old car is gonna be a project. I'm going through this process right now with my 92 EG with 400000km. Did full mechanical resto over the last 4yr, moving onto interior this yr , next next yr is bodywork. If you love the car and it's a keeper, money and time is no object.

That car needs to find the right owner, I wish I could save them all.

[twitchyzero]

If you love the car and it's a keeper, money and time is no object.

how is time no object unless you are retired or inherited wealth and don't need to work?

Safe to assume very few will drop 10's of thousands on a Civic let alone ITR unless they either wrench for a living, sponsored or jasonturbo.

Agreed, if it's your keeper, you will enjoy the whole journey of the restoration. Step by step, since 99% of ppl have normal life and need to pay the bills like myself, and yes of coz u wanna do all the work all at once so u can enjoy the car u wanted. But reality comes first, I brought a em1 last yr and already did some work with it, I cannot tell u how eager I wanna do a K swap and repaint the whole car, actually I think about it every single morning when I check this forum. And tbh I asked my mech buddy about this blue itr, I was so close of going to the bank, get the cash and bring the car home. The truth is this car needs shit load of work but the most important is the history of this car is just too horrifying. I assume along the restoration u will find hidden problems and it will empty your bank acc, in my case I won't be able to afford to continue. That's the reason y I walked away from this itr.

[SumAznGuy]

I didn't look at the car, but the thing that made me feel the same way is the history and why it keeps going back on the market and takes forever to sell.

going on a dozen years with my DC5....still remember taking delivery of it when I was barely legal to drive. I do my best to keep it in decent condition as I plan to keep it as long as it runs. Might be nice to do the cross-country thing with it one day.

I still stand by what I say though. I baby my toys but don't pretend like it's my child and invest a small fortune at them. At the end of the day, it's just a dinosaur burner in a metal shell. Maybe I'll think differently if it's a limited production car passed down from previous generation(s)...not an econobox Honda.

[teggy604]

Do people actually go check out the car in person before placing a bid on BAT?

[SumAznGuy]

Wondering if it was an inside job. They had to have had a garage to swap the 5 bolt hubs.
Plus, I think they are building a regular integra into an ITR hence why they took the doors and rear panel too.
Surprised they didn't take the hatch as well.

[twitchyzero]

just had to be a '97...breaks my heart

[white rocket]

I thought that a dealer bought that '97 from BaT. Makes sense now that it's "stolen". Realized the massive rust issue when they took delivery and bam, stolen! haha! Good move. Probably sold off the parts they "stole" to recoup even more money.

I'm just making assumptions but finger pointing on the internet is fun so fuck it.

[TouringTeg]

It certainly is suspect. I didn't think ITR's were still a big target for theft. I suppose values have risen and many of them are hidden away in garages and less likely to be left unattended in parking lots.

teggy604, in the majority of BaT auctions which I followed the buyer never travelled to view the car prior to purchase. On occasion there is a local interested party who views it and speaks with the seller and posts more details in the comments section. It is more likely that a local will make a BaT purchase (save on shipping, get to see and drive it, meet in person to assess the seller).

Flying out to view a car that is up for auction only to lose the auction because of higher bidder would be a PITA.

Is there any insurance company willing to insure for track? I heard they might insure you if you go through approved driver training school with your car.

[white rocket]

I'd feel much safer on a closed course with any car rather than on the street. At least on the track, if something happens, it's most likely the fault of the driver or a mechanical error. The thought of some jerk-off crashing into me because they are not paying attention is the #1 fear for most that cherish their car.

I understand values of the NSX has increased over time, but when I had my NSX, it was my daily driver

Side skirts are molded to a factory stock one for rigidity and allows for oem installation. (clips underneath etc)

Hey guys what do ITR wheels and tires go for these days considering the sky rocketed price of the car itself? Both white and GM.

[tofu1413]

locally been $500-$1000 dependent on condition for USDM 15"

[VRYALT3R3D]

So how much would these be worth:

-Stock Canadian ITR with 180k, stock, flawless condition
-JDM ITR with 45k, stock, auction grade 4B

CDM - dependent on year, 2001 worth the most, but should be $15-$20k dependent on condition.

at 180k km im skeptical its all original "flawless"


JDM - $10-$15k landed probably. has to be mint and bone stock and have a floor pan so clean you can eat off of it.

Nice caR, definitely not "flawless" cosmetically. Also vin tags are missing on front fenders.

[VR6GTI]

Not stock aswell

[tegra7]

^Intake, lowering and aftermarket stereo isn't a big deal imo. Wonder what the toggle switch under the driver side heater vent is for. Depending on accident and maintenance history, I can't see myself paying more than 15k for that caR.

[TouringTeg]

Nice R! I see AEM CAI, Alpine CD player, random switch to the left of the steering wheel. Seats, checkered mats, shift knob etc look like nice condition. I like the front license plate plugs.

15-20k is probably accurate even with missing vins. These cars are in demand right now. If it had all matching VINs it would be worth a lot more.

I see a lot more WTB ITR ads then cars for sale. The ones that do come up have plenty of stories.

Remove the stupid shit and it's a decent caR. I'd be more concerned with the motor build. The stupid shit can be removed and replaced. Perhaps it's a time constraint but the seller should have removed all the dumb stickers, hood, grill stuff, etc. I doubt this will see $20K and rightfully so.

[westopher]

Looks nice from that pic. With 208k and these cars seeming to be missing the usual Honda reliability from that motor though it's going to cost you more quickly I'd bet. What's the story with the motors? Are they kind of like the e30 m3 where they were just high strung for their time making them in need of more maintenance?

[thumper]

if the motor is well kept, it's usually compression-related issues that come with the high mileage. thankfully rebuilds don't even come close to e30 costs.

the other area of concern is the transmission.... synchros :(

[edit]i'm only basing the above on my obvservations of someone's itr a few years back that had over 180k kms on the odo. original motor, ex-burrard acura car, multiple owners, one of whom tracked it early in its life. it had broken a valve spring and was showing low compression in one cylinder that the seller didn't want to spend money on to diagnose and ended up selling it for a low price because it would barely run and had to be towed away. the buyer had the drivetrain pulled and when they opened it up they found the valve spring and the hurt valve. it was also getting significant blowby past the rings, and both sets of lobes (vtec) on the camshafts were worn enough to warrant replacement. the head gasket appeared to be original and was on its way out, as there was oil in the coolant. the buyer had budgeted for a full rebuild (except for the cams... i think he ended up getting TODAs) so it was expected. valve seat grind, cylinders cleaned up (i cannot remember if they were overbored), head decked... it was all done.

the transmission was a little scary but still okay. someone had mixed up some concoction in the trans fluid to try and hide a 2nd/3rd grind due to worn out synchros, which was all replaced because it ended up getting a 4.785FD installed. somewhere in this was a new clutch and flywheel that went in as well.

the trans and engine mounts were soft and those had to be changed out. the steering rack was also leaking... i think that was because of a core exchange from one of the previous owners that was not put together well.

i think the only other thing to go bad was the brake booster which was dying. otherwise that was it.

[westopher]

Yeah it seems like just more of a time related hassle than a financial catastrophe like with an M motor.

[tofu1413]

ITR's arent that bad to maintain.


parts are easily sourced. there are a few items that are rare for the discerned ITR owner: oem shift knobs, oem carpets, red canadian seats, oem valence kit, oem front ITR specific leather bras, full factory cat backs.... and so forth, those minor things that fetch top dollar.


Finding a so so condition one to restore or resto mod is a treat, since there is tons of aftermarket support.

Like what thumper said, more of time and logistics issue.

[ravenhill]

Agreed with what Tofu and Thumper have said. They're old cars now. Also, even Honda reliability can't stand up to neglectful owners beating on them and not doing preventative maintenance.

Easy to forget that it was only a few years ago when ITRs could be had for 10k or less. Reliability took a nosedive when the buy-in was low and they weren't seen as anything special (though I'm not saying they should be considered the super special cars that a lot of people seem to think they are now).

[thumper]

i think the shop had the drivetrain done and back in the car within three weeks, mostly due to delays with the machine shop they went with. they had all the oem parts ready to go beforehand with the exception of the camshafts.

[tofu1413]

really appreciate the ease of working on those cars... so simple and straight forward.


disassembling and reassembling the car is a pleasure. everything is just there and actually goes back together... *cough* BMW and broken clips *cough*

that era of hondas are just fantastic hobby cars. heck if i had a big enough back yard, i'd probably find me a nice EK CTR to play around with.

[white rocket]

Darn near bulletproof yet easy and not all that costly to repair when the time comes. To put reliability in perspective, I did a full track day season (7 or 8 events) with weak compression on 2 cylinders. Kept oil in it and you wouldn't even notice a power loss only some smoke out the back. I even blew the clutch in Seattle and was still able to drive it home no problem. 99% of the money I have spent on mine in the last 14 years of ownership is all go fast goodies or bling/rice parts. The clutch replacement in 2007/2008 was the biggest "repair" I'd done up to that point. When I compare the ITR to other cars like STI's, Evo's, M3's of all variants, and most other Euro cars I almost feel like I'm cheating with how easy ownership is.

IIRC Westopher replaced the entire cooling system in his E36 M3 only to have more problems in the same area not too long after. I couldn't even fathom the headache that would be and applaud those who endure ownership even with those pangs. The ITR has Corolla-like reliability, end of story.

Easiest way to check is look at the adjuster knob on the side.
If it is Triangle, then it is most likely real.
If the knob is roundish, then it is fake.

Either way, $1600 is too much for them.

^ Touring Teg, I have a few buddies who have recently purchased NSX's.

1991 NSX 38K kms for $56K from Mtl

1991 NSV 202K kms for $39K from Mtl

The worst deals for NSXs seem to be in BC....high demand low supply, however back east cars seem to at least $10K less expensive, especially from Mtl. I know, I was skeptical too buying cars from Que, but as long as you get them inspected you should be fine. If you want my car broker friend's number, pm me. Cheers.

[TouringTeg]

Wow both of them were good really good deals. Those are great examples thanks! I would rather have a 39k NSX than a 29k ITR any day.

Buying an NSX or other exotic from a cold climate is not so bad because odds are low it was ever winter driven. Inspection, Carproof and away you go.

I would love to add an NSX to my collection but my wife will divorce me and take my ITR and sell it on BaT. :chop: I appreciate the offer.

Would love this on Racing Hart Type C (OG) Just sold but it was 92k miles, $40k USD

So true. NSX tended to stay in the hands of mature owners.

So many ITR's have been modded and hacked up. Funny to see them come to market with sellers thinking they can cash in.

Like this one in Ontario... No working stereo, gutted interior, lots of stock parts long gone.
