CalipersCar Cave purchased this vehicle from it's long-term owner
in the dry climate of Nea Smyrni, Greece. The town of Nea Smyrni is
located in South Athens and not a far drive from Acropolis. The
previous owner stated he was the second owner and was in his
possession for over 15 years. He was sad to give up this beauty but
needed to make room for a car seat (a lot of us have been there
before!). Honda Factory Service Records show the Integra was sold
new on February 2, 1998 to a Michal Charvat. The selling dealer was
Roman Bartyzal of Ceske Budejovice of Czechia who also performed
the pre-delivery inspection. Contact us to review the service
records and history file for this Honda.The Integra Type R features
a sleek and aggressive design that sets it apart from its
counterparts. It sports a compact and aerodynamic body, with sharp
lines and smooth curves. The exterior is often finished in a
vibrant Championship White (paint code NH-O), which is the
signature color for this particular model. It may also feature
unique Type R badging and decals, denoting its high-performance
nature. The car sits low to the ground, further enhancing its
sporty appeal.Inside the Integra Type R, you'll find a
driver-focused cabin designed for performance. The interior teim
color is officially 'red/black' due to the front Recaro racing
seats being delivered from the factory in red. The rest of the
interior is finished in a combination of grays and blacks. The
steering wheel is leather-wrapped and provides a firm grip, while
the instrument cluster is sporty and easy to read, featuring a
prominent tachometer and additional performance gauges. The
interior is simple yet functional, with a focus on weight reduction
to enhance performance.Upgrades and Features:205/50R15 Bridgestone

R's suspension is specially tuned for improved handling, featuring
stiffer springs, upgraded shocks, and a limited-slip differential,
providing exceptional cornering abilities and a thrilling driving
experience. High performance Nissen Spoon front calipers were

suspension upgrades to stiffen the chassis.While the focus of the
Integra Type R is primarily on performance, it still offers a few
notable features and technologies. Standard equipment includes air
conditioning, power windows, power mirrors, dual airbags, rear
