Difference between Type R and Euro R?

[Turbonetics]

anybody knows what are difference between the DC5R and CL7R other than the Brembo on the DC5R?

does the Euro R comes with LSD also?

I suggest you goto www.integra.sg to find out more.

 

There're a few bro's who switched from DC5R to Euro R when family outgrew the coupe.

 

DC5R and EuroR gear ratios are same up to Gear 3, after which the Euro R has taller gear ratios as it's not a pure track machine.

 

EuroR comes with its own LSD.

 

This is a good guide forgear ratios comparisons:

Err... what's the point of swapping gearboxes? If you need shorter ratios, drop in a shorter final drive first.

 

Anyway the key difference is weight - DC5R/Integra is 200kg lighter than CL7R/Euro R so if you really want to build a non-turbo track monster, get a DC5R.

 

The CL7R can be modified to run quite well at Sepang but 200kg weight disadvantage really hurts since squeezing more power/torque out the already high-revving K20 engine isn't as easy or cheap as turbocharged engines.

Another difference is in the suspension.

DC5R has front MacPherson struts and back double wishbones while CL7R has all double wishbones.

thanks all for the reply.

[Turbonetics]

are you sure their weight differ by 200kg?seems like too much for me.

Slightly OOT but.

 

Both are coming to the end of production right?

 

Any news of their replacement?

[Vblaster_w211]

Euro R is still in production. Integra has stopped production.

[Turbonetics]
