Actually the red H is just a Honda Racing emblem. Not really reserved for type-R cars.

Speaking of Type-R's....I really wish I had a camera the other night. I saw an old busted up like 93 Integra Type-R...just had to laugh. Euro tails and HUGE fart can muffler. I just don't understand how people can disrepect the Type R like that.

That would be like me taking the Spec V emblem on my car and changing it to V-Spec. I would never disrepect the Skyline like that...just my $0.02

New Honda Tuning has an SI type R that is going to Europe for 2004. Wish they would export them to the US, but in a coupe rather than the hatch.

Oh yeah? Well one time I saw a Daewoo Civic Type-R, or at least that's what the badges would have you believe.

I wish I had my camera that day.

I wish I had my camera many times when I am out. Up at Carlisle Compact Nationals this past spring I saw a 94 Ford Escort GT with a GT-R badge on it...it makes me sick when I see people do that.

I bet that Daewoo Civic Type-R was getting like 400 hp to the wheels....morons.
