Not really including speed as they would all be exact equal in engine specs. In my time I have notice that a company can make a perfect design for one thing, and make a crappy design some years later because they have to make something and can never surpass the design perfection that they had earlier. I own three 2 gen tegs, sold my 1 gen, never drove a 3 gen, test drove a RSX over the weekend. I was really nice, but when I hit a sharp turn that I always take with my 2 gen I notice that it was just not as smooth. I am going to test drive a 3 gen today. Thinking about buying a new Teg. I wish I can just take all 4 of the gens to the track, throw in the same engine in each, and see what handles the best. |
Hmm...as far as handling goes, stock-for-stock, the 2Gs and the 3Gs have basically the same suspension. With the 2G being slightly lighter, I would say that it's just a bit more tossable than a 3G. But with mods, that's different story. Now that's just the "regular" 'Tegs. The ITRs are totally different animals, as evidenced by stock ITR vs modified GS-R comparos I read about in SCC when the ITR first came out.
So...stock-for-stock, ITR wins.
Anyhow, about your 2G, have you driven one with an LSD? It's a NIGHT and DAY difference with handling. The JDM b16 I had in mine came with an LSD, and that thing can power thru corners like nobody's business
. Besides the fact that my straight-line acceleration improved, since I was able to hook-up both tires at the same time.
