- K20A/K24 'Frankenstein' Build producing 270BHP
- Iconic Championship White over Red
- Lauded Japenese-market only hatchback-coupe
The Honda Integra DC5 Type R is a Japenese-market only hatchback-coupe lauded for it's blend of performance and distinctive styling. SB are thrilled to offer this example finished in the iconic Championship White, a colour synonymous with Honda's racing heritage. Step inside, and you’re greeted by eye-catching Red Recaro (SR4) seats, paired with matching carpet and door card inserts create a cohesive interior. Originally sold in Japan and re-registered in the UK in 2015, the DC5 Type R is a true driver’s car, boasting a high-revving 2.0-litre K20A DOHC i-VTEC inline-four engine that churns out 220BHP, hitting a thrilling redline of 8600rpm. The power is sent to the front wheels via a close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox and features a limited-slip differential for improved traction and handling.
However what truly makes this Integra standout is its “Frankenstein” engine build. By pairing a 2.4-litre K24 bottom end with the original 2.0-litre K20A head, this particular example now produces 270BHP (+50bhp from the original) on tap. This upgrade increases torque with the stronger power delivery perfectly complementing the car's naturally aspirated character. Alongside this the car benefits from a handful of tasteful modifications which can be viewed in the Key Equipment & Features section.
