This 1998 Acura Integra Type R is #199 of approximately 1,000 examples delivered to the US market for the model year, and it remained with a single family prior to its acquisition by the seller. The car is finished in Championship White over black cloth upholstery and powered by a 1.8-liter B18 VTEC inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transaxle, and equipment includes air conditioning, a factory CD stereo, body-colored 15″ wheels, and power aLessories. Work completed during current ownership is said to include respraying the right side of the car and replacing the timing belt, valve cover, water pump, shocks, and bumper covers.
The exterior is finished in Championship White (NH0), the only color offered for US-market Type Rs in 1998, and features a front lip spoiler, a raised rear wing, black splash guards, and Type R decals. Damage on the left side as the result of a sideswipe collision is listed on the Carfax report in September 2004, which resulted in replacement of the left mirror.
White-painted 15″ factory wheels wear Acura-logo center caps and are wrapped in 195/55 Toyo Proxes R1R tires. Slotted and cross-drilled rotors are fitted at all four corners, and the seller states the shocks were replaced in September 2020.
The black interior features seating surfaces upholstered in micro-suede with peppered cloth inserts and red stitching, along with a black dashboard and carpets. Amenities include air conditioning, a factory CD stereo, an aftermarket shift knob, Integra Type R-branded floor mats, and power windows, locks, and mirrors.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames factory instrumentation consisting of a 10k-rpm tachometer, a 150-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows under 97k miles.
A plaque on the center armrest denotes this example as #199 of approximately 1,000 US-specification Type Rs produced for the 1998 model year.
The 1.8-liter B18C5 inline-four features VTEC variable valve timing as well as dual overhead camshafts, and factory-rated output was 195 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque when new. Service completed during current ownership is said to include replacement of the timing belt, valve cover, water pump, and miscellaneous hardware, and the oil was most recently changed in September 2020 at 96k miles.
Power is delivered to the front wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle, and the clutch components were replaced in 2018 at 94k miles.
