what the 92-93 tegs are called in Japan?

Sigh. You would drive a DB2, not a DA6. Just a friendly reminder. :wink:

ahh, ok, forgoet all you people know tegs by heart. Most normal people just say “Honda Integra? You meant Acura?”

I meant to say “I drive a 1992 Honda Integra Xsi”… actually even in Japan, unlike skyline series, if I just say DA6, I think not many except for those who own an Integra will know here neither.

Did they even make a DA in 93 in Japan? I thought they went to the DC in 93-94 with the foureyed front.

Yes they did because my friend has a complete front clip looking at him every day in his garage… it’s a 93 front clip w/B16A in it (OBD-1 2nd gen B16A but with cable tranny - obviously). Also, they never made the “foureyed front” in Japan… all of their DC Integras were all JDM style (like the ITRs) headlights and frontends. The cool thing also, my friend got a rare OBD-1 PR3 ECU with it… not like that matters since it’s exactly the same as a P30 :stuck_out_tongue:

no u’re wrong. They did make it for one year when the DC first came out. It was something like in 93/94, but everybody hated the 4-eyes so they redesigned it

Agreed. I was just wondering which years it was that they had the 4-eyed front on them. Can’t seem to remember. I was thinking it was 94 (at least by then).

1st generation - 85/2 - 89/3
2ng generation 89/4 - 93/4 (DAs)
3rd generation 93/5 - 95/8 (the foureyed-front ugly car)
4th generation 95/9 - 2001/6 (Did it came out in U.S./Canada?)
5th generation 2001/7 - now (RSX)

for pics of them all, check HONDA JAPAN page.

Ignore the unreadable stuff (IF ANY), and click on the pictures.

People in Japan refers to chassis code all the time with popular cars. DA6, DC2, EF9, EG6, R33, R36(skylines), etc… I was caught by surprised when I overheard my friends talk about cars…

I think its not that bad of an idea because with the chassis code, you know the generation and roughly when the car was made. Instead of saying “Oh I drive a 1992 Acura Integra GSR”, you just say I drive a DA6. of course, if you drive a Toyota Tercel, then no one will know your chassis code then… [/B]

Thank you.
