Description
1997 Honda Integra Type R (DB8)
imported from Japan jdm vin db8-1100823
I will personally deliver/transport the car to the new owner at no charge within the United States excluding Alaska and Hawaii.
Ultra-rare unicorn of true collector quality. This is one of only a handful of possible known 4 door DB8 ITRs in the entire United States. With even fewer of them having actual titles as this one does. An unmolested specimen. Real deal right hand drive car, NOT a conversion. The jdm DB8 is the rarest of the jdm type R’s with only 5,135 being produced. Compared to the 24,860 jdm DCs
What makes this car even more unique is the fact that this vehicle is registered for street use, and insured in Wisconsin. Not just a Florida title, which a lot of jdm cars come over with, and are sometimes not legit. The title states the cars actual vin no extra digits, it is also clean and in my name. The car has been titled in multiple states with no issue. I guarantee there will be no issues with registering and insuring the vehicle. I will assist whoever purchase the vehicle with both.
This is considered to be a 96-97 spec, which came from the factory with 4 lug (4x114.3) as opposed to the 98 spec, which had 5 lug (5x114.3). Also with the 96-97 spec they are the lightest and most performance orient of the type R’s. With the closer ratio gear boxes and with the 96-97 specs being roughly 100 lbs. lighter
The car very original, clean, and in excellent condition. The only modifications are mild and tasteful:
Real Mugen Twin Loop Muffler
HIDs,
Tein Flex 16 way fully adjustable coilover suspension.
Has stainless steel brake lines. Also has OEM Honda Access rain guards as well as OEM mudflaps. OEM rear strut tower bar and Honda Integra Type Rx pedals. It also has a custom dash guard made and installed to protect the flawless dash from the sun.
Upgraded sound system sounds very clear, crisp, and clean. I recently upgraded to a Kenwood deck with Bluetooth. Already in place was a 12” Kenwood Excelon subwoofer, 5 channel amp, and upgraded Phoenix Gold front and rear component speakers and tweeters with separate crossover.
Everything else is all original including B18C motor, LSD transmission, Black Recaro interior, MoMo steering wheel, titanium shift knob, power folding mirrors, front and rear sway bars, ultra-lightweight wheels…everything.
At some point in its history this vehicle was involved in an accident and was repaired while in Japan. The right rear and front right was impacted. The vehicle was inspected by an Acura dealership in Florida subsequent to arrival and was found to be excellent driving and mechanical condition.
The car has no rust or mechanical issues. The engine idles and accelerates nicely and transmission shifts perfectly with no grinds. Car runs and drives excellent. Everything works as it should including the heat and A/C.
Timing belt, water pump, thermostat, tensioner, valve cover seal, cam seals, accessory belts all changed recently along with new oem Honda axles.
The original US owner had the vehicle resprayed in its original color, (championship white, code: NH-0). There are a few minor issues with the paint. Such as minor rock chips primarily on the front bumper and lower lip spoiler. There are also two small dings on the driver’s side fender and some very small dings on each rear door which are difficult to capture in pictures. The shop did not want to remove the glass for fear of breaking it so there is a small amount of over spray on the rear window trim. So the glass is still original. Also the driver side floor mat is a little torn located near where the hole is. Very minor issues for a 20 year old car.
I possess extensive knowledge about this vehicle and can provide more information upon request. Vehicle is in excellent mechanical condition with no known issues whatsoever. Any questions or if you would like any more information feel free to contact me 715-301-3836 call/txt
Serious inquiries only and more pictures available upon request. I reserve the right to end this auction early.
