    Seems like you would have said the RSX then cause its better looking and performing than any integra ever produced IMO. Guess ppl just don't care to steal it then huh

You dig? Later, QD.
    I would never build a car without a dd to take out, hell my new eg doesn't even have locks..... its got sedan rear door handles on it for a cleaner look, lol

    Nothing about a 240sx is expensive or complicated to repair or replace. Nothing money eating about it. Cheap parts that are readily available... you know... theres a reason these cars are popular right???


    Also, i dont want a new car. To me a new car is the worst investment you could ever make. If i really really really really wanted the 2012 mustang...... id wait 2 years and buy it.

    Your opinion flat out makes no sense. Looks are opinion based though. But performance......

    0-60 times and quarter mile times stock

    1997 Acura Integra Type R 6.5(0-60) 14.7(qtr mile)
    2003 Acura RSX Type S 6.7(0-60) 15.1(qtr mile)

    And how about the handling??? EVO magazine named the Integra Type R (DC2) the best handling front wheel drive car ever produced. This was done in 2006, well after your cute RSX was made.

    "Indeed, in 2006, some six years after production of the original Integra Type-R had ceased, evo didn’t hesitate in including it in a test of 15 all-time front-wheel-drive greats, pitting it against the likes of the 205 GTI, Clio Williams, Clio Trophy and Mini GP. And after commending the Type-R for its ‘organic feedback’, ‘tremendous traction’, ‘miraculous’ grip levels and ‘searing pace and total involvement’, we named it the greatest front-wheel-drive performance car ever."

    here's the full article.....

    Everyone has their own opinions. My girlfriend has an integra and I have an rsx. I would choose my car any day, but I'm also not looking at every performance aspect. Just simply over quality visually and driver and passenger comfort.

    Look back at the thread, I wasn't the one who said his GSR was at much to insure as his mustang..... But BTW i drop money into my hobby because im smart.... garage... no kiddy shit here





    Go back to google. Acura RSX is the replacement for the Acura Integra in america. Oh wait thats just my common sense talking hmm



    You have no faith because you don't know how to build an engine. Look at the ls/vtec you fucked up! You have more faith in somebody else because you don't know what the hell you are doing, how in the hell do you strip a arp stud in a block anyway, it says hand tight, can't u read?

    BTW your spelling is ridiculous....once is an accident twice is just dumb.... ITS TORQUE, and WARRANTY, of course you don't trust yourself building a motor. I wouldn't even trust you with my keyboard....

    AND for $30,000 I can build quite a few engines. More then ford will replace.



    Bwahahaha You really are a moron and talk like you know me. I have never built a ls/vtec. I built a gsr for boost 6 or 7 years ago and its still running to this day

    I would trust a new car over an built car I dont care who built it even if jesus him self built it in his human form he was still human and makes mistakes. Also

    I don't know you. I know that you have no clue when it comes to engines, that's why u trust new cars so much. Watch the name calling btw, makes you look like a kid. Btw ur gsr for boost wasn't built. Keep your religious mombo jumbo out of this. Do u think aliens build new cars or something? New cars don't break? Lol wow u r a joke....

    GTR vs Zr1 is a fair argument, but i'd still take the vette even with the price factored in. The Skyline was legendary and always had an I6 and pretty unique look. The new GTR looks like a bloated 350z and switching the v6 completely ruined the historical significance of the car. 100 years from now, when we're all cruising around in electric cars that drive themselves, the ZR1 will still be cherished, not sure if i can say the same about this new GTR. It lacks all the class and sophistication that previous models had. Corvette is an icon.

    Once again "MORON" You dont know me from adam you have no clue what was in my gsr that is still running to this day!

    Yes I trust a robot that has built 100's of thousands of motors over some builder that has built a few. I trust a factory warrenty
    over alot of fly by night shops that might not be open in a year or two. I know i could take my vett to any chevy dealer in the country
    and wont get turned away becase they will want me to buy the next hot vett that comes out in a few years.

    BY the way isnt this your build thread that started with a blown up "BUILT" motor? hmmmmm......

    one 15 year old nissan in particular has probably held its resale value better than any car in history, but i agree with you. Zr1 will hold its value until the end of time, its a special car.

    a $80,000 v6 that keeps side by side to a $110,000 v8......and that runs RIGHT behind the lexus LFA ($400,000)in the 1/4mile.... im sure we thought we would forget about the r34 too right? The New GTR is a legend, like Tim Tebow <----- see what i did there!

    im pretty sure we wont forget this gtr
