Are you talking about the Civic Type-R (which I know nothing about) or the Integra Type-R? The ITR has 11.1" (282mm) vented front rotors and 10.2" (260mm) solid rear rotors. All other integras have 10.3 in front and 9.4 in back. Not bad considering the cost of the car, but certainly not Porsche standards. However, the engine is a work of art (much of it modified to type-R spec by hand) and the suspension is very well sorted..

You could be right, I though they had 13" rotors. I can check next time I see one.

Best combo would be that 195hp VTEC in a 1800-lb CRX! Had one walk away from me at Willow Springs back in August. Actually, he outran a modified Viper and RX-7TT as well. He ended up 5-sec faster than them, and 10-sec faster than me.
