If you could create your own version of how a first gen Acura CL type R how would you build it. Here are some variables to consider: Exterior Paint-job, Interior Color, Interior bits and pieces (Seats, steering, shift knob) Engine, Transmission, Brake Set-up, Suspension, etc. (i.e. removing the moonroof).

legendaryCL98

a first gen type R?

i say.. take VXCL's old first gen.. then put a supercharger in..

your set.. and maybe the Type-R badge

CL Platano

Racing leather seats
short shifter
tighter suspension
240 hp
everything hand stitched like in the NSX
17" alloys
brembo brakes

i second that!

Smalls

omg

Dont forget the WW Type R wing.

CL Platano

Yuck!!!!!

I would agree with this except on the Supercharged part. a Factory Type R would have to a highly tuned version, not a boosted one. Keep the 3.0 v6 but it would be tuned with a red valve cover. i think thats a little mo realistic. Also it would have Leather seats, bucket style, with the Inverted leather. (like the IS 300). No wood trim, graphite one, like the newer cl-s.

Zerostatic

Here's my version:

Paint-job either Championship white, electron blue, or that yellow (you know which one)
A better looking version of the WW type R rear wing
Red Cloth interior
Get rid of the sunroof
Get rid of the power seats for some manual sport seats
a hi-compression H24 (2.4 liter version of the H22) pumping out 240 HP
6-speed manual tranny
Carbon-fiber trim
3 spoke momo steering wheel and shift knob
Studded pedals
17 inch forged light-weight wheels
Bigger Brakes all around
An inch or so lower ride height and stiffer suspension all-around
Red Acura Logo
Type R sticker

Lol Pheonix (piss) yellow. i dont know if that would look good on da Cl..
But I think weve all got the same idea.
What car has an H24?

VXCL

THANKS! hell yeah! i was going for SEMA 1st gen but TYPE-R is compliments enough.

i say jdm h22 since that what was avail during cl introduction.

I sure do miss my CL

pebe

until u hit the gas in the suby im sure.

VXCL

yeah but then i have to pay for it. like $2+ a gallon for 93 and 25 vs 32 mpg on highway compared to the cl.


i was getting 12mpg when i first got the car. heh now thats its broken in and i dont feel the need to feel the power every second it went up alot.

pebe

Yeah, I hear ya. My CL's on the way out also. Theres only so much u can do to this car and I dont' feel like ploppin more money into it.

Zerostatic

No car, I just made it up to give you some kind of idea of what I was thinking. Basically an H22 with more displacement to provide the torque needed to move the heavier CL (as opposed to a prelude)

azian21485

this car has an h24 =) well...sorta...2.44 liters running 12's and 11's soon in a n/a in a cb7 accord =)

site is down that has actually pics of his car...but it's a two tone cb7

Motohip

Why a Type-R, why not a Type-S like the rest of the Acuras? But since you said Type-R, Ill throw in some things as well...

You guys are forgeting projectors. At least projectors, but HID would be even better. Needs a lip kit all around. Needs like an 800lbs weight reduction. Thinner windows, no sound deadening, aluminum suspension components, 8k redline, 11:1 compression...

legendaryCL98

cause.. type-r is unique..

like the RSX Type-R

my friends friend has one! its so sweet! steering wheel is still on the right though.. but who cares?!

lnsyone

I'm sorry, this is a stupid thread.

LoL...

All motor for me.....with individual throttle bodies to make it sound sick......

I'd put the biggest fucking fin on that bitch. It would look like the Wright Brothers plane that was built back yonder. Somebody erase this thread before anyone else see's it.

bkmc24

actually element's and cr-v's have 2.4's

CLpower

w/ an h22a


I'd say Marks car is the closest to a type R

ib_jimmy

this is the CL-GTR.

Motohip

So does the TSX, but those are K-series motors, not H.

otokoyama

I would do it in the tradition of the other type-Rs.

Appearance
Make it white and have a red interior with Recaro seats. Have a small lip spoiler and small rear spoiler. Have 17" inch wheels.

Suspension
Revised suspension that is 1/2 inch lower. Bigger swaybars, shocks, brakes, etc.

Power
Port and polished heads, modified intake and exhaust, revised timing, and a 6-speed. That should add about 50HP.

Most importantly, make the car 90lbs lighter.

sumdumguy

sorry, you mean integra. if it's an RSX it's a type-S, with a steering wheel conversion.

I second the VX style (esp. projos), with int. like the real type-Rs, lower stance, bigger brakes and wheels. accord type_r motor( i think that's the euro h22)a little taller spoiler than stock, dual tips like the TSX, and keep all my power stuff(roof, windows etc. except seats) only comes in black, red, and blue ahh dreams....

baka_t

Fuck, this is the gayest thread ever.

lnsyone

I'd like to see one of you folks run a Type-R badge on your CL.

legendaryCL98

haha.. no..

it is the RSX Type-R! he got it imported for his shop last year

Motohip

Well if it was imported then it's a Honda Integra Type-R.

legendaryCL98

ah geez.. same o same o..

i got owned...

Motohip

I just noticed you live on the freeway

Ken1997TL

H22 from the Prelude Type S (JDM) I believe it made 220 hp or so.

ATTS for superior cornering

Stage 2 weight reduction

Track suspension

6 speed manual

azian21485

no an integra type r in japan is NOT the rsx type s here

legendaryCL98

he knows that.. haha.. he was just trying to correct me

so he's saying.. if it says RSX.. and Type-R at the same time, its a fake

but if the badges read, integra Type-R.. then its the real deal..

i think thats what he was trying to say.. i just got confused thats all

azian21485

i was referring to this statement:

the rsx type-s is not the equivilent to the integra type r...the type s is not a type r with the steering wheel on the left side...hell the type-s doesn't even resemble anything from honda's type r line lol

VXCL

some does have that but i forget who. IT WAST CLTYPER! he just had the name thats it.
