Any differences b/w dc2rs over the year? 99-01?

[chop]

does anyone here know the difference of dc2r b/w in 99, 00, 01? if any?
and just to make sure myself :) , does honda start selling dc2r in 99 ?

and also i ve seen a jdm 97 dc2r for sale, whats the difference between the aus dc2r ? (beside the performance aspect)
e.g. body wise, cosmetics? accessories? decals? interiors? others?

thx ppl :)

yeah mate,
type r integra's were produced in '99 for the australian market.

[skoota]

Besides JDM Type R being ummm... a little faster - the front is totally different to the AUS spec. It has flat lights and well the whole front is different - looks a little like the previous generation Teggs - better IMO. I'm sure someone in here has a pic of it they can post up. And yeh AUS stopped production of DC2 VTi-R and made way for the DC2R in 1999.

[chop]

ok, so there is no other cosmetics difference between the JDM and AUS dc2r beside the front end, right?
what about rear end, tail lights, interior, gauges, etc? are they all exactly the same?

then any difference between the 99, 2000, and 2001 aus dc2r ?

i'd like to know this, coz i m in the market for dc2r soon after i sell my car.


thx ppl.

Yes there are quite a few differences cosmetically
starting from the inside ..
-JDM has a clock cover in the place of a clock
-JDM steering wheel is not as fat as the audm coutnerpart
-JDM dash (as per usual JDM cars) has cluser that goes to 180km/hr

exterior wise
-AUDM has rear wiper, JDM does not
- AUDM ITR rear lights have clear indicators, JDM's indicators are amber like the audm vtir and gsi tegs

there is also difference between 96 spec and 98 spec JDM ITRs
- 98 spec has HID headlights ...
- 98 spec has 5 lugs 96 has 4 lugs
- 98 has abs, 96 does not ..

im yet to confirm this ..
but i think the 96 spec jdm's and the pre 98 audm integras in general ..
have a rounded side miror as opposed to the AUDM ITR and JDM 98 spec side mirrors which have a "horizontal gash along them " the same as the EK series civic ..

thats all i can think of
i think its all right :oops:

[mugsee]

jdm 98 also got bigger brakes than the 96's.

Here, all you need ;)

I don't know of any changes through the line of AUS DC2R's. The DC2's had their changes in late '97 ie) dual airbags, change in lights and the whole the front section had a makeover compared to what it was from '93 to early '97. So I think the ITR's were the same all the way through until AUS DC5R's came out.

Could be wrong though - there are ppl in here who r in the know about this more than I am. :D

I'm pretty sure this is correct.

Another thing with the 2001 DC2R is that black cars got red recaros, and yellow cars got yellow recaros, white and red as per normal. One thing I am yet to find out is whether the 2001 DC2R got the CTR intake cam.

[tofu R]

hmm 2001 DC2Rs got CTR intake cam?
where did u hear this from
ive never heard of such a thing before
what year model is yours jim?

[chop]

CTR = Civic Type R. Usually parts such as those in Civics are a little more aggressive than the ITR. A lot of ppl get CTR cams cos of this.

[chop]

ok kool,

thx for the infos, you guyz are great helps :)

and one last question, is there any red dc2r that comes with red recaro seats? or do they only come with black recaro seats?

Mine is a 2000. I read that some of the Euro Spec Rs have the CTR intake cam on their 2001 cars, not sure if this is the case for AUSDM but we are very close in spec to the Euro cars.

[tofu R]

JIMBOY

CHOP

I think red seats in a red car is too much red. :shock:

[tinkerbell]

ctr intake cam = 01 ITR intake cam

By chance anyone know if the radiator and a/c condensor for DC2Rs in general, so both AUDM and JDM, are the same? Reason asking is i'm in the process of repairing a 01 AUDM DC2R and need this information. :( :( :(

Just comparing it to standard dc2s and dc4s the earlier models had a different radiator design compared to the later models.



Hoping to hear from you, sorry if you all think this is a dumb question.
But atleast i'm resurrecting a dc2r ;) ;) ;) ;)

DC2R have thinner radiator i think.... not too sure about it
But the radiator for auto are bigger than manual...

You could always choose what colour seats you wanted. the yellow seats option was made avail for PY ITRs 2001+

Ive seen a carbon copy of an ITR customer requirement report.

lol pretty much the only options they gave us was aircon and colours :P

[r3xtc]

nope...red came with only black seats.... red is the worse colour on a dc2r in my opinion....go yellow!!



ok kool,

thx for the infos, you guyz are great helps :)

and one last question, is there any red dc2r that comes with red recaro seats? or do they only come with black recaro seats?

[Bludger]

red is HOT

[AjMikkO]

i have red with black recaros, yes red is Hot but if i had a choice i think id get yellow with yellow recaros..HOT

[mikey1717]

Are the doors the same compared with a 96jdmtype r and aus? Passengerdoors!

[Moey.C]

yellow in yellow is nice
