I dont know about best handling(newer should have better Id think), or fastest(noticeably) but 94-95s are usually the top choice because of there OBDI capabilities. As for appearance, the 94-95s have those fat 5 rims that everynody likes, and I think 98/99 till not sure when have the GSR blades that are also pretty nice. Plus the 98 ups have a little bit different front end and rear bumper which are also more popular. Also, I think the 98 or is it 99(its been covered before) GSRs come standard with leather seats.

i've been told by many people on this forum that the 93 gs-r is the quickest of the gs-r family. if you look up times for it i think it runs something like 15.1-15.2 amd the 94-up run like 15.3-15.4.

I'm not sure about handling but probably the newer ones, even though mine handles great.

if this is wrong i'm sure someone will correct it.

Yea the 93 gsr is faster not by very much though, and I think i would rather have a DC2 b/c the interior is much nicer IMO. Also the 93 gsr is a hard to find car, but got to like the B17 with a really nice r/s could be a good N/A motor p&p cams high compression pistons and some N20 has alot of potential but so does the DC2 gsr's. Just a matter of what you like in the long run.

I agree with that, and finding aftermarket parts for my engine is really a pain. sometimes i think of engine swap but i love the fact that i have never personally seen another 93 gs-r. It makes me feel special , anyway I do like the bady style of mine better or at least the first half of it. I like how it looks wide and low from the front.
If I had a 94-up I would have to do a jdm swap on the front end cuz i don't really care for the round lights.
eventually i am going to do some intenal work on the 1.7, raise comp a little, and get some higher profile cams. still awhile away though...

stock, the fastest usdm integra is the ITR and will out-handle any of the others as well. simple as that.

as for gsr's, the 2nd gen runs 15.1-2, compared to the 94-95 which runs 15.2-3.

i do enjoy the styling of the 98-up DC2's, jus don't like the OBDII (even tho it doesn't matter THAT much.)

the 3rd gen tegs are better handlers than their younger brothers, but do weigh a bit more, which explains the slightly slower 1/4 times.

I totally agree. I have a 91 Integra and like the fron ends much more than the newer body styles with the round lights. The 90-93 just look meaner Not many suspect an 12 year old car to have the power it does. After most races if I talk to the guy I beat they say "Ya mines an auto otherwise I might have had you" then I reply, "really mines an auto too" and walk away. The higher power engines are much harder to find but who doesn't love a good swap?
