New 05 Integra info on Aus Honda website

The Type-S is alright but not like a Type-R...
- No Recaros (which is the main reason for bringing the Type-S out because it will suit the "older" drivers and Honda want to appeal to a wider audience rather than us racers/ricers)
- No LSD on Type-S so handling is not as good
- Not the same suspension as Type-R so handling again affected
- More luxury items to suit wider audience...
- But they have the same engine (Type-S having a bit more power)

I know what you mean but we already have the type S. You can always do the same as Honda Australia and wack on a type R badge. As alot of people say, modify it to where you want it. Honda Australia has to sell cars too. Mazda is taking alot of the market with the mazda6 and mazda3.

Most average Australians cannot fit in the recaro's and really are a "wider" audience!
