  1. Type S Transmission Question.

    I noticed this too, my driveway is slightly sloped toward my garage. Parked in 2nd, it rolled forward about 4 feet. I guess the lower compression of the turbo engine isn't enough to hold it. My s2000 will hold position in 3rd on the same place in the driveway. As a side note, never place the...
  2. ITS owners -- what is your biggest surprise with the car so far?

    What I like: Ride, mostly in comfort. I may run in sport with winters, they're noticeably softer. Brakes! By far, the best feeling, operating brakes of any car I've owned. Makes my S2000 brakes feel terrible, by comparison. Individual settings capability. Comfort ride; Sport+ engine...
  3. Torque Steer Rant

    The ITS doesn't have torque steer, in the same way a regular fwd car, with an open diff would. With the lsd, the two wheels will pull the car exactly in the direction the car is steered in, it doesn't fight you, if you turn the wheel it will go where you point it. So you have to be careful...
  4. Alcantara Center Console with Stitching

    The console trim panel: 83431-3S5-A21ZA from Acura parts for less is 35.69 pre shipping. I've been thinking about ordering it and sending one in.
  5. Oem tires in the snow.

    I've been using mine below 45, but.... I leave my garage in the morning, which is in the upper 50s to mid 60s, take it easy the first 5-7 miles and not push it hard in other corners on my way to work. It was noticeable the lack of grip in low 40s, rainy conditions, not hydroplaning but turning...
  6. what are your annoyances with your Integra Type S?

    My '03 S2000 has no rev hang, cable throttle (best IMO), '04 S2k is cable throttle also, correct? My '03 still has its original clutch at 140k, it picks up a bit high, but doesn't slip. Every time i drive it now I have to re calibrate myself to "drive it like you hate it" to rev the snot...
  7. Review of 5 things to improve Type S

    My 1 month of ownership will be on the 20th. I love the car, a few tiny niggles. - homelink, the three ounces it weighs isn't that much. --wish it would have a more cable throttle "feel", like my s2k, that 2-3, 3-4 rev flare, whether rev match is on or not is annoying. - fuel tank is...
  8. Wheel chip (Type s)

    I need to read the tire protection I took on my car. I just rashed the crap out of my LF wheel. In my sister's driveway, lined with damned Belgian block. I guess I'm not used to the extra track width compared to my old car. I feel so old and stupid. 519 miles. :doh: Mangled the outer...
  9. Type S Winter Wheels / Fitment Specs

    I'll be running Enkei Raijin, 18 x 8, 42 offset. 235 40 18 Vredestein Wintrac Pro. Here's a trial fit pic. Clears no problem. Suspension isn't settled, I just lowered it to the ground after spinning wheel to check spoke clearances. I'll probably put them on when the lows are forecast...
  10. Too Old For ITS?

    56 here. I had a 1995 Integra GS-R, loved that car. Never wanted to sell it, but needed larger. That led me to almost 20 years of 6 speed V6 Accord coupes, a 2004 (new HFP) and a 2017 (pre owned). Once I saw the Integra coming back, then the Type-S, I got the new car itch again. I drove...
  11. Paint, fit and finish.....an issue?

    My 3 day old Tiger Eye, I just spent 4 hours detailing and ceramic coating it. It has a slight mismatch at the RF top of the bumper cover to fender. If I remember from years ago, Honda still paints bumper covers and other plastic parts on a different line. I also had a small scratch on the...
