Anmerkungen

Das Acura Integra GSR DC2 Fahrgestell stellt die Spitzenvariante der vierten Integra-Generation dar, die von 1994 bis 2001 produziert wurde. In Japan und auf den Weltmärkten wurde es als Honda Integra verkauft, während es für nordamerikanische Kunden das Acura-Emblem trug. Die Bezeichnung GSR (GS-R) stand für eine leistungsorientierte Spezifikation mit dem VTEC-ausgestatteten B18C1-Motor, der 170 PS bei 8.000 U/min aus 1,8 Litern Saugmotorleistung erzeugt und die Kraft über einen frontgetriebenen Antriebsstrang mit einem eng abgestuften Fünfgang-Schaltgetriebe überträgt. Mit einem Gewicht von etwa 2.760 Pfund in der Coupé-Konfiguration erreichte der DC2 GSR bemerkenswerte Leistungsgewichtswerte im erschwinglichen Sport-Kompakt-Segment, was eine konkurrenzfähige Beschleunigung und ein mitreißendes Fahrverhalten ermöglichte. Die Doppelquerlenker-Fahrwerke vorne und hinten boten eine überlegene Geometrie im Vergleich zu den bei Wettbewerbern üblichen MacPherson-Federbeinen, was zur legendären Kurvenfähigkeit des Integra und seiner kommunikativen Fahrwerksdynamik beitrug, die von Enthusiasten hoch geschätzt wird. Das Interieur verfügte über unterstützende Vordersitze, ein fahrerorientiertes Armaturenbrett und eine minimale Schalldämmung, die Hondas Performance-Philosophie für die GSR-Spezifikation widerspiegelte, während Basisvarianten des Integra eher komfortorientierte Ausstattungen boten. Der DC2 GSR nahm eine zentrale Stellung in der Import-Tuner-Kultur der 1990er Jahre ein und diente als erschwingliche Basis für Modifikationsbegeisterte, die SCCA-Autocross-Wettbewerbe, Amateur-Straßenrennen und Street-Performance-Projekte verfolgten. Die B-Serie-Motorarchitektur ermöglichte umfangreiche Aftermarket-Unterstützung mit Anbauteilen, Zwangsbeatmungs-Umbauten und kompletten Motorwechseln, etwa durch leistungsstärkere B18C Type R-Varianten oder K-Serie-Motoren aus späteren Civic- und RSX-Modellen. Die Produktion unterschied zwischen der japanischen Domestic Market Type R-Spezifikation mit 195 PS starkem B18C-Motor und Sperrdifferenzial sowie dem nordamerikanischen GSR mit leicht gedrosseltem B18C1-Triebwerk und offenem Differential, wodurch eine Leistungshierarchie innerhalb der DC2-Familie entstand. Der Integra GSR konkurrierte direkt mit dem Volkswagen GTI, Mazda Protegé MP3 und Nissan Sentra SE-R im Sport-Kompakt-Segment und bot überlegene Fahrdynamik und Abstimmungsfähigkeit gegenüber amerikanischen Pendants. Heute erzielen DC2 GSRs auf dem Enthusiastenmarkt hohe Preise, was den nostalgischen Reiz, die zunehmende Seltenheit unverbastelter Exemplare und die anhaltende Bedeutung in Vintage-Rennklassen und Time-Attack-Wettbewerben widerspiegelt.
