  1. So much hate for this car! Are you disappointed with your purchase?

    I've never owned an older Integra, but I'm old enough to have friends and colleagues with 1st, 3rd and 4th gen. I do understand where you're coming from, but the gap between the Civic and the Integra were already becoming narrower even before the initial discontinuation. For example, 7th gen RSX...
  2. If you were in charge, how would you spec the Type S?

    Why would it need better ELS system tho? It's supposed to be a performance trim. TLX has the same 17 speaker system in the Type S. MDX Type S does come with better sound system but only in advance trim. Obviously I can't say anything about how you'd spec the Type S, but I don't think it 'should'...
  3. Will Acura PMC the Integra too?

    So far, Acura has built PMC editions of TLX, RDX and MDX. Considering the ILX is basically done now, the Integra's the only one left in their line-up. Do you think they will give the Integra PMC treatment too? RDX PMC came in Long Beach Blue pearl and Thermal Orange pearl. TLX and MDX PMC used...
  4. Front plate mount alternative options?

    Don’t you guys have vinyl license plate or something like that in CA?
  5. Aftermarket Wheel options

    I'm not buying mine anytime soon but I have a question. So I happen to have a set of 18x7.5 wheels sitting in my storage. That would be a little too narrow for 235s, right?
  6. My Integra w/A Spec & Tech package in Platinum White - Video

    IIRC 10th gen Type R had gear indicator and it was very useful. All the other manual cars I’ve driven at least had the “shift to this gear now” feature so it’s kinda disappointing to hear that the new teggy doesn’t have it. But then I was 100% fine without it 15 years ago so I don’t know lol
  7. If you were in charge, how would you spec the Type S?

    Based on A Spec Tech 6MT and 10AT, identically equipped 272hp FWD 10AT open diff taken from the TLX 306hp FWD 6MT + LSD with dual axis set up straight out of the CTR 19inch 245/35/19 TLX brakes for 10AT Brembo front brakes for 6MT Slightly more bolstered front seats Button type gear selector for...
  8. What’s it gonna take to get you to buy a Type S?

    I'm OK with Acura going straight to EV. What I'm worried about is how it might affect Acura's ICE plan. I know L15 sips gas but K20C is still a pretty big engine and the MDX still has the J series. And then we have the Type S V6, of course. lol Acura isn't a very fuel efficient brand on average...
  9. What’s it gonna take to get you to buy a Type S?

    It's true that both 3rd and 4th gen ITR had a little more power than the CTR, but we're not talking about ITR here. Also, the 9speed on the NSX is mounted very differently, so it just won't work with any other Honda or Acura. But ITR would be nice tho. I really hope Acura does this for its final...
  10. 2023 Integra OWNERS MANUAL!

    I 100% agree that the Mitsubishi units in those cars were absolutely disastrous. However, it's irrelevant here as newer Honda/Acura models (including the Integra and 22+ Civic) don't use them anymore.
  11. To Rev Match or Not to Rev Match?

    It might sound a little weird but I just felt like switching things up a bit every few weeks. And by double rev mathing, I meant exactly this: So when it’s on, there’s no need to do anything. Push the clutch in, shift, and then just let go of the clutch like how you’d upshift. When it’s off...
  12. To Rev Match or Not to Rev Match?

    You'll get used to it. There's nothing to be nervous about. You can always turn it off or turn it back on, although I wish they put an actual button for it like other manufacturers. I turned it off/on whenever I got bored lol I recommend keeping it off for few weeks since you're used to doing...
  13. 2023 Integra Reviews Are Here (Full List)!

    I mostly agree. The base, even in 6MT configuration, isn't exactly for enthusiasts. It's for someone who want the badge, features, "luxury" without giving up the fun part. Remember when a lot of compact luxury cars came in manual? I'm actually a huge fan of the concept so I've been so close to...
  14. Integra Type-S Predictions - PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

    I really do hope they modify the whole section for next model year or at least for the mid cycle refresh. But I thought the new Integra's only going to be sold in North America.
  15. Integra Type-S Predictions - PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

    TLX-S is supposed to go against S4/5, M3/440i, C43. The Integra's German competitors are A3, 2 GC and CLA. So ITS would need to undercut S3, M235i and CLA35 in terms of pricing. I just don't see it being mid-upper 40s. Chinese Integra is quite literally a rebadged Civic. That's why the...
  16. Integra Type-S Predictions - PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

    Previous gen MDX and TLX didn't have Type-S because there was no Type-S program. Their Type-S trims were announced right after the re-launch of the Type-S branding. But I do agree that it probably has something to do with the new Type-R's release schedule. That makes sense. Most automakers...
  17. Integra Type-S Predictions - PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

    It's quite strange they haven't said anything about the ITS yet. They hid the TLX-S well enough but the announcement itself actually happened before the base TLX's launch. MDX-S was unveiled with the base MDX. Why are they so quiet about the ITS? It was clearly on the model release plan thing so...
  18. Integra Type-S Predictions - PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

    I don't think it will come with a rear brace. Maybe a dealer installed option? Not many hatchbacks have oem rear braces. Most 2 seater special edition hot hatches have it, but regular mass production versions of them don't. In fact, the only example that I can think of right now is the i30N with...
  19. Kia K5 GT (w/GT1 package)

    It's on the long list of "the cars that I almost bought" lol It's not for me, but many people will be happy with it. Much better than 2.5T Stinger if you don't care about the RWD dynamics and the hatch. The 8DCT in it is absolutely amazing and it looks much, much better than the Sonata...
  20. Official: 2023 Acura Integra Full Pricing & Availability (June 2022) Released!

    Imo Acura doesn’t exactly know what they are and we probably don’t either lol But something like Cupra would have been fun.
