Just some stupid kids that bought the Type R sticker out of JCW or went into their local autozone and was infected with the "decals = performance" disease. I'm sure they also had the fart exhaust and APC stickers on the side, right?

type r is a honda thing. everything else you see with a type r sticker is fake. the only car in us that is a type r is the integra, and soon to follow is the s2000 with a 2.5 l engine

Moo.
There's a kid at our school with a way riced out 3rd gen Integra, pains me to look at it with what he's done to it. Aluminum wing, altezzas, 6 inch exhaust tip, a really ugly gold paintjob, stickers... He even claims he has a Type R engine under the hood. Threatened to kick my ass when i pointed out the ITR has an I4 and not a V6 like he was saying...
 EDIT: Oh ya, forgot to mention, he races just about everyone, haven't heard of him winning against anything but my friends stock '98 Accord. He's lost to my Durango, he's lost to my friends stock '95 Civic LX Sedan, he's even lost to my friends stock Saturn sedan.

that is some slow ass car hahahhaa, hearing you say that make me feeling better that at least my car can whipped some one behind. btw, I saw some Accord has a Type R sticker on the car, and I was wondering it's there really a Type R accord??? And I'm not talking about if they actually did a swap, but straight from factory like the Civic has the Type R hatch. |

There is, but it's not available in the US and this is the last year they're making them.....

The U.S. gets shafted out of a LOT of the best imports. Not fair.
