Re: Type R: G Stock in 2000? "Dreaming...."

Actually, the Type R has 15x6" wheels, as compared to the 14x6" of the Neon.
Both cars can only fit 225 width tires.  True, the Type R has 2 ft-lbs less
torque(130 vs 132), but the peak comes at 7500rpm(195hp @ 8000).  Since I
own both a 98 Neon ACR and a 98 Type R, I can tell you that the Neon WILL
pull the Integra in the low rpm range with its fatter torque curve.

Yep, they sure do.  They also have wider 15" wheels, (compared to the Neon's
14.")   And at 195hp(?), about 45 more hp than the ACR coupe, and nearly 60
hp more than an ACR sedan.  Torque numbers are about the same...
