- In this episode of this series, we will be working on this 2001 Acura Integra Type-R in Phoenix Yellow. First off is a set of Continental Extreme Contact Sport tires. Following with height adjust on the Koni struts and H&R springs. Then we refinished all of the caliper to the OEM-like finish and paired with brand new OEM rotors and brake pads. We also clean up the front fender well with a pair of brand new OEM inner fender liner. Last, we topped it off with a 4-wheel alignment.
Result is the OEM+ look where filled with gap with the original and fun factors.

How the hell this channel doesn’t have a million subs is beyond me !!
Much appreciate it
With the quality work and care and the unicorn Hondas we have all dreamed of, these guys should have way more subs than they do. Mad respect for the passion for our classic and also new beloved Hondas. Makes me appreciate my 06 S2000 so much more. 10 years of owning it and multiple offers, I'll never let it go...unless an NSX is involved lol.
Thank you so much for the compliments. We can definitely understand when a NSX pops up. :-)
Nice to see the wheel caps are set like they should be, right inline with the valve stem
Yes, detail matters
Been seeing so much of those integras with the JDM front end I forgot how beautiful the circle head lamp ones still look, beautiful car and great job again 👌🏾👌🏾
Miss my 98 ITR and 92 civic Si, this channel is kind of like therapy to me.
Facts!!!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
these guys get a hold of the cleanest examples
To make them even cleaner
I was born in 93’ and can tell your an O.G when it comes to cars! Your an inspiration to get my gsr sorted to a higher level 👊
Right on!!
This was great! I was looking for something along these lines for bringing my own DC2 back to life!
You should do it. The result is very rewarding.
@@ahcgarage thanks for the detailed content! I found your channel when looking for a full Spoon bushing kit install review video...know of any like that? Bushing on my car is toast and that's more the avenue I'm leaning versus aftermarket arms.
We have negative experiences when pressing out the original bushings at the front lower control arms. The new bushings do not sit tight at times, all bushing from other companies, not Spoon specifically. We like to replace the front lower control arms with Hardrace Oem style control arm assembly. It comes with stiffer bushing and still retained the Oem look.
@@ahcgarage thank you for your response and sharing your feedback - I'll definitely take that into consideration! Thank you. New to Hondas and the DC2 chassis but it's been fun so far! Just looking to get it refreshed/road legal and then start the learning to grip drive.
Hands down best channel on TH-cam !! Man I love this channel !!!
Cheers!!!
the work you guys do is incredible
Thanks so much for noticing!!
It's quite difficult to wrap my mind around the fact that this gorgeous machine is 20 years old. Truly timeless styling. It still looks WAY better than everything else Honda/Acura is selling today.
Right on!
It is a classic!
Always like the AHC Garage videos. The best videos on TH-cam in my opinion. Keep up the great footage.
Wow, thanks!
Agree, he deserves more than subs. Quality content
I love the ride height. The owner won't have to turtle speed drive on...drive ways.
Right on!!
Nice work Mike, came out very clean.
Thanks a lot 🙏🏼
My dream car thats a beautiful machine
Cheers!!!
Koni Sport shocks are legit! I have almost 275,000 miles on mine! I run GSR stock front springs, and ITR stock rear springs, perched on the lowest setting all around. It’s a perfect daily driver setup. I installed those shocks in 2002, ran H&R Sport springs for a couple years, then Ground Control sleeves for a year, then finally settled on the current spring setup in 2005.
Thanks for the insight
Factory Acura and Honda wheels use lugnuts with acorn/ball seat. Aftermarket “tuner” lugnuts are cone style. Never mix the two. There are washers that allow using tuner lugnuts on ball seats.
Great facts!!
I recently saw some TE37 with ball seat lug nuts 😟
That right there is my dream car. Watching you guys gives me that encouragement that everything will into place. with just a little patience,faith & hardwork. You can achieve anything, never stop innovating I will always be here for support. Great Video
Thanks so much for continued support Mark!!! Mean so much to us.
What a great car. I've owned a 2006 Acura RSX in the past.
Right on!!
Best Honda/Acura channel EVER! Thank you AHC for the continued outstanding content.👍🏻
Our pleasure!
5 years ago I sold my 2000 DC2 ITR for less than $10,000 now people are asking $30,000 for the same car here in Australia, I miss that car! and yellow looks amazing on these.
Amazing how the market shifted so quickly
Ive just ordered koni yellows to go with some spoon springs i have. Great to see a video of how easy it is to adjust and set up. I cant wait for them to arrive!
Glad it helped
These videos are so satisfying 😊
Glad you like it
Lovely.. my 5 lug comes tomorrow for my white 97 RS . Gotta pick out some fun track day tires.
Have fun!
Sounds like the aftermarket lug nuts are doing their intended job. 💯
Working until they failed
Instant like ! Beautiful car, glad it's getting that much needed maintenance ❤️
Couldn't agree more!
Great video guys! Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks for watching!
Great episode Mike, I love the phoenix yellow it really stands out in the crowd I sprayed a front wing in this colour a week or so back and it's not a good colour for coverage. This Integra is in really good condition and the paint finish is still like new you wouldn't believe it's a 20 year old car, look forward to the next. John UK
Thank you so much John
Muy buen video. Muchas gracias por subir este proyecto.
Estoy al pendiente del siguiente episodio.
Saludos! 🙌🏽
Thank you!!
Awesome videos! Would love to see FC1 content, gotta see what y'all can do to an L15B7😁✌🏾
Nice type r def needed some love I spy the clean CL 👌
Great Catch!!
Great job Mike!
Thank you as always
Funny I just bought a set of Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus for my 4th gen Acura TL x)
Awesome refresh vid!!
Appreciate it!
Nice car!! Looks awesome.. a Real classic!!😍
Cheers!!
Very nice!!
awesome work
Thank you
Great work guys! I’ve been watching a lot of your content. You guys are so meticulous. I have an ‘01 ITR with 52K miles. It’s all stock. My front right shock is blown and the Honda shocks are discontinued. You guys can’t source an OEM one for me, can you? 😉 If not, I may have to get some Spoon Sports coils 🤣. One thing I need for my ITR is the yellow covers for the license plate holes in front. OEM parts are getting harder to find!
Front struts are long gone for ITR. We do have a set of Spoon coilover :-)
As for the front bumper caps, the original yellow are discontinued. We are planning to do some new cap but repaint them yellow and black. Shoot us an email if you are interested:
AcuraHondaClassic@gmail.com
@@ahcgarage Sweet, I’ll shoot you guys an email! Keep up the fantastic work. Loving all the ITRs you’ve worked on. Too bad I’m so far away in California 😁.
I wish Honda OEM brake pads would come with new hardware.
I believe they did that to keep the cost of the parts down since they do not required replacement on most brake jobs
Hi Mike, Continental's grip nice but I find them too noisy. You need to try a set off Good Year F1's, They are very quiet and you can push so hard wet or dry. I have them on my DC5 and on my Suzuki Swift Sport. The Weather here is going to be good today so the DC5 is going out for a Spin!
Thanks for the tip!
Beautiful!!
Thank you! Cheers!
The inner fender didn’t get rubbed on because the car is lowered. The inner fender most likely came loose and rubbed the tire. I’ve Han lower in a gsr and didn’t rub the fender there, nor did I come close to..
H&R springs are the closet to factory they are really good ... ah! actuator is bad :P #normal
Car is 20 years old, that falls into the "wear and tear" catagory
@@ahcgarage well the actuator is actually a big known problem with this cars, mine is 2001 and its been broken since 2003, but finally fix it last year lol
That DA in the background had me all distracted.
Great catch!!
Dude y’all do such quality work! Can y’all do factory refresh on my 1997 accord wagon ViX RHD?!?
👍🏼👍🏼
30 mins of AHC + ITR on a Saturday! Wheel weights on the face and improper lugs. Not good.
Thanks for your support 🙏🏼🙏🏼
i see a AHC video dropped I automatically click
Thanks very much
Love the show .. keep going ahead.. with what you do.. tell everyone good job and do you have dis one in Championship White
Thanks so much for watching and your support.
@@ahcgarage hey what do you think of a armiran Honda Accord..will look like if the body is a 98 to 01... type r
What!!!! They put weights on the alloy lip, on an ITR? I’d sell everything I have to buy one of those cars. Best car Honda ever made right off the factory floor.
Right! Unfortunately, some just don't care
@@ahcgarage Always appreciate the content! I actually have my original Bridgstone Potenza RE010's on my OG ITR rims and they have Honda branded weights mounted on the outside delivered from the factory. Pretty crazy. I noticed you went 205/50/15 rather than stock 195/55/15. Do you have any clearance issues? I have the Tein Flex set-up as well. Thanks!!
Those wheel locks look like they'd be easy for a thief to hammer a socket on to get them off. I personally run Gorilla wheel locks with spinning collars.
That's a great alternative
@@ahcgarage keep up the great content, Mike!
Thank you
Nice Type R, it's a rare gem! I'd like to ask Mike where can I source a good used OEM passenger side headlight assembly, mine 1998 4 door GS has water inside can't get rid of it. I know there are Dorman brand and other cheap crap. Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately OEM headlight has been discontinued for over 2 years. Used and aftermarket are the only option. As for the aftermarket, we recommend these headlights. They are by far the closest to the oem with great fitment. We have use them on a few Integras:

@@ahcgarage
Thank you for the quick replied, I appreciated. I may order it from Rock Auto with the Dorman Brand. Thanks again.
22:12 yall dont clean the hubs and spray them before installing new rotor? In Canada thats a must otherwise the corrosion will create an uneven surface and removing them next time around wont be fun.
Those are surface rust
the calipers are a goldish color when new. at least im pretty sure about that. also I noticed when u opened the trunk that u had to hold the key turned over while lifting the hatch. my Pheonix yellow ITR is the same way. actually all 7 type r's I've owned were like that. I can hear the relay click when I pull the lever to the side but doesn't open. can u help me know why? thanks and keep up the great videos.
You are correct. They were almost an anodized color in between gold and silver. I'm currently restoring my 2K ITR and painted them silver. They look nice and clean. As for the trunk they replaced the modulator in the back. I'm not sure how they get all of these new OEM parts but I can't find 3/4 of the parts they are able to get their hands on but you have to remember they are also an Acura dealership with a lot of connections. I found a used one on ebay that worked perfectly. Good luck!
@@cwillistyle I recently got a new actuator and fixed my trunk after having to use the key for almost 10 years 🤦♂️
Love you guys work! Are you guys a business and can I pay you guys to work on my car?

Did y’all fix the face of
The rim when y’all remove the wheel weights all aggressive and it scratched the face? :((
2:32 😐😐
Hi guys, always a good show to watch. Do you know the parts numbers for the wheels nuts and lock nuts ? I am refreshing up my car too. Thank you.
Thanks for tuning in. Lug nut (90304-SA5-013) and lock set (08W42-S6M-202)
@@ahcgarage Thank you for providing me the details. I can't wait for your next car that is FD2. The white type r. 😍
On Koni shocks, the highest front perch setting, and the middle rear perch setting represents the OE perch heights. Curious why you went for the highest rear setting?
It also has H&R lowering springs
Hi Mike, looks really awesome, do you mind to share what spray paint you use for the caliper? i’m planning to do the same on my ek9, thank you.
Dupli-Color Engine Enamel
Any chance you could source some new 98-01 fender liners for me? Mine are absolutely trashed.
Left side is discontinued. Right side still available. I grabbed a clean pair from a wrecker. I noticed 94-97 is different.
@@touringteg yeah that’s why I need them. I did a 98+ conversion many years ago but never changed the fender liners. Had to use a few zip ties to keep them in place.
Unfortunately, both fender liners are discontinued for the US market at this time
Do you do refresh on my 01 ITR, it is exactly 20 years old now, most factory parts need to be looked at or replace? Thanks.
Are those fender liners available?
Where do i order integra type R rear quarter panel decals

Might be dumb but what is he putting on the back of the pads
No dumb question. We applied Moly Grease on the back of the brake pads. They are high-temperature synthetic brake grease with a high solids (moly)is recommended for lubricating critical brake components.
@@ahcgarage i have more questions is there a messager i could use
Forget acura go honda duble white paint and wheels
