difference between dc2 type r & dc2 type r 'sport'

[davidvtec]

Ive noticed on carsales, there are two types of type r's available. the integra type r & integra type r 'sport'. tbh i see no difference in them. i also checked on redbook through there specs and are pretty much the same. can someone care to tell me the difference between them?

[mnc]

there is no real difference.

Unless the seller is talking about the 2001 limited edition dc2r's that came with things such as yellow recaroes.

no difference.
people put their car in the 'sport' category because they think it gets more exposure.
all audm type rs are the same spec and simply called type r.
as above i think yellow seats was a limited edition option for yellow r's but dc2rs were limited edition regardless so....

yeh most of them i see in the "sport" section are the limited edition 2001 models, so i assume thats what they mean.

I looked at a DC2r "Sport" back when I was in the market for one before I got the EM1

The only difference I noticed was that the sport had some kind of stabilising bar in the boot and it had pods on the rear bumper..these were probably optional accesories anyways with the normal DC2R..

Yes there were some limited edition yellow ones with yellow recaros in 2001. I had a deposit on one but it fell through..

ohh yeahh.. the yellow recaros. altho limited edition, i didnt like it at all cause i hate the yellow color overall lolol

yer type r sport got some freebies that were options on normal dc2r.

eg, sports pedals, type r floor mats, sticker on the rear window that says ''integra type r'' and a strut brace in the boot

*some may call it a chassis brace coz its bolted onto the chassis

Mine wasn't a "sport", but it had the chassis brace... you mean the one right in the back of the boot yeah?

why does everytime this thread comes up, someone posts this. how would you even know mate? you did a survey on this? maybe they bought they're dc2r under sport model so they are just relisting it as that. and i hardly see any ads with the "sport" at the end


no difference.
there is a diffence, it was posted above. if there was no difference why would there be an option on carsales, and why would redbook have it aswell.. whats with these clueless guys spreading the wrong information. guess this is why we have the PQ system

No they all get that.. Im talking bout the "strut bar" evn tho technically its not a strut bar..

[TheSaint]

the front bar on a type-r isnt a strut brace ... but the one in the boot actually connects the strut tops
the little bar right at the back is a chassis brace
