The 3rd character in the VIN will be a 4. 4th to 8th characters - DC231 (DC2 is a 2 door Integra, 31 is a Type-R)

^^^^ That's the BEST way to tell!! Most ricers (read: all) dont change that and most other people dont pickup on a 'Type R' badged Teg with 4 lugs being faux.

About the doors, the ITR has NO door mouldings. All the others do. I think the best way to find out is to check the VIN like mentioned above. Anyone can do a conversion, but most won't go through the trouble of swapping VIN plates.

A turbo ITR is a force to be reckoned with.

ITR in the US was rated at 195hp at the crank.

The ITR came only in three colors: Championship White, Phoenix Yellow, Black.

The ITR does not have a sunroof (they add weight, something they expressly tried to cut in the ITR).

The ITR has a 5 lug spindle as opposed to the 4 lug on all other Integras.

The ITR has a huge wing on the back and unique body colored skirt kit.

The ITR is around 0.5 to 0.75 inches lower in ride height than a standard Integra.

The ITR is only available with the gunmetal 7-spoke rims from the factory.

The ITR only came with a manual tranny (5-speed).

That's all I can think of for now.

That info seems to matchup with my brochure (1997).
