The Honda Integra Type R compact coupe knows only one passion: gas, gas, push the gas harder!
Maniacs, who love the smell of burned tires and hot oil, they will give you everything, to make your dreams come true. When they don't have money, they take out on karts. When they get rich, they go to the dealer, where they can buy a kart that is admitted to normal traffic – Honda Integra Type R.
Body / interior. Type R is a coupe in the style of Manta and Scirocco, that is, it is a number bigger than Puma or Tigra. Form 2+2 on the Honda Civic platform, it has only one function, which explains so: be as flat as possible, short, wide and streamlined. A car designed in such a way is already standing, gives the impression of ultrafast, which, however, does not mean exciting. Its huge rear spoiler is overwhelming, It is superstitiously large, but the eyes of the headlights are kind of sleepy. In the interior, the highly profiled Recaro seats try to provide the right sense of space. There is a tachometer in front of them, whose "red" rotation starts after 8500 RPM and speedometer, the arrow stops only at 270 km/h.
Engine / gearbox. Only the driver can have fun here. The engine is one big orgy of rotation. It has a lot of strength from low revs, in the upper range of the tachometer, the motor "bites" like a boxer. Above 3000 RPM follows a racing rhythm. With a beautiful sound, hellish and fast. Above 6000 RPM behaves like a Japanese Ferrari, Honda NSX. well, Honda can in the Integra z 1,8 l capacity to conjure up 190 KM. Such performance per liter (106 KM) neither offer Ferrari, or Porsche, a and BMW only with turbocharging.
Driving system. To, that weighing only 1130 kg car with a power 190 KM has traction problems, is a simple matter of physics and front-wheel drive. But how Integra tires finally manage to catch traction, this car goes like Satan and sticks to the road. Brakes are at the Porsche level: from "hundreds” to zero 36,7 m.
Comfort. The Type R rides more comfortably, than you might expect.
