I need everyones opinion please.

Okay, I just joined up with this forum and I have a few questions seeking knowledgable opinions. First off I drive an escort, second I am selling it, third I plan on buying an Acura Integra. I am open for suggestions as to bonebreaking swaps, etc, anything you all have seen and think might be interesting for me to know. I have been reading up a lot about the Acura Integra, and I have a feeling it would do me justice. If any of you have been turned down or have crossed an Acura Integra, let me know the circumstances eh? I would like any input. Thanks alot! I look forward to keeping up with threading as well!

-Casadint, aka the White Snail. (White Escort is what I drive, go figure.)



Editting: Btw, just to clearify everything, my intention is to stay within the years of 94-97 integra. Most likely GS-R.

Thanks all, I'll be in and out talking about this and that. After I get my integra you can bet I'll be landing a few stories on your doorsteps. heh.

Re: I need everyones opinion please.

the 93 gsr was the fastest year with the B17.
few cars handle better than the integra with the correct tires and suspension mods. as stated earlier, try to save up and go turbo. bolt ons do not do much to these cars. hey, i owned an '01 LS from 12 miles to 56k.

Re: I need everyones opinion please.

I currently own a '97 gs-r, and I love it. It's stock as of now, but an intake is in the mail as we speak (err.. type.) I've seen people in gs-r's with I/H/E or some combination thereof run anywhere from 16 flat to 14.7, depending on the driver. They're excelent quality cars, and very fun.

And a basic I/H/E/C will generally net you 15-odd hp and a half-second or so in the quarter. Mild cams will give you another 20 or so if you want to deal with the instalation. For more information than you'll ever want to know about the integra, go to www.team-integra.net.
