New Type S - 154kw! up 7kw

**FANATK** · 08-10-2004 01:40 PM

The new Integra Type S made its debut at the motor show yesterday, replacing the Type R.
Power is now to 154Kw up 7Kw and also gets a new six-speed close ratio box and bigger/louder exhaust system for better sound. Also usual cosmetic changes to lights bumpers etc.

Thats all i know so far

Good and bad news i guess, no type r but a type s with more power!

Is this for real? Honda Aus are gonna sell this in showrooms? I'm gonna trade in my dc2!!!

well we've always had the type s here (badged type r) now we actually get it badged type s and also gain the 7kw due to usual power increases on a model updates along with cosmetic changes.

It is missing many of the things the present type r has and 7kw doesnt amount to much in a car that is likely to be heavier

i agree, bet it weighs more than the type r due to luxury items and some lightweight type r items...

current type-r = type-s

no it's not

the engine is not k20a2...it's k20z1 with modified intake manifold
our type R has LSD...new type S doesn't

7kw doesn't make up for the weight...
