Model overview
Model description
The Acura Integra Type-R returned for its sophomore year in 1998. The Type-R can be distinguished from the rest of the Integra lineup by its pronounced rear spoiler, lower front lip, and aerodynamic side skirts. The Type-R was only offered in a coupe body style, and for 1998, was again sold in only one color – Championship White.
White Integra Type-R wheels were wrapped in Bridgestone summer performance tires and larger disc brakes were found at all four corners. Many chassis enhancements were made over non-Type-R trims, including body reinforcements, a stiffer suspension, and removal of sound deadening materials. Acura also deleted cruise control and the sunroof for the Type-R, and air conditioning was optional. Even the windshield glass was thinner than normal in an effort to save weight.
The beating heart of the 1998 Acura Integra Type-R is its high-revving VTEC four-cylinder engine. Although it has the same 1.8-liter displacement as the rest of the North American Integra offerings, Honda extensively reworked the unit and assembled it by hand. The result was a rating of 195 horsepower at a 8,000 rpm and 130 pound-feet of torque at 7,300 rpm. Power goes to the front wheels through a close-ratio five-speed manual transmission.
1998 Integra Type-Rs included a rear window wiper—a feature that was absent for the 1997 Type-R. The 1998 model year is also the second rarest for U.S. market Type-Rs, with just 998 examples sold here that year.

Many factors can increase a car's value including excellent condition, exceptional originality, a recent restoration, low mileage, unique provenance, desirable options, popular or unique color choices, and excellent maintenance records. Upgrades and modifications that enhance performance or aesthetics can also add value.
Factors that can decrease a car's value include unusually high mileage, poor maintenance history, visible wear and tear, accidents or damage, title issues, and gaps in ownership history. Additionally, less popular color choices and extensive modifications that don't appeal to a broad audience can reduce value.
Mileage plays a significant role in a classic car’s value. Lower mileage usually increases value because it indicates a higher degree of originality, is rarer, and suggests less wear and tear. However, cars with exceptionally low mileage may also have maintenance needs due to lack of use. Whether someone should pay more for a vehicle with lower miles will depend on how they plan on using it, and the vehicle's specific condition.
The value of modified cars differs widely based on the type and quality of modifications. While some modifications can significantly increase value, especially performance enhancements and high-quality custom work, others may not add much or could even detract from the car’s value if they appeal to only a limited audience.
