If u want to get a reliable, fun, quick car and dont want to do any modding or anything, then id say type r all the way, its a great car w/ some great honda engineering, i mean pushing 195 hp out of a 1.8 liter 4 cylinder is pretty damn awesome along w/ great handling.

However, if ur wanting to do a lot of modding, supercharger/turbo or something then i would just go w/ the gsr, still has 170 hp stock but is a little easier to work w/ when it comes to boost and it will cost u alot less even w/ mods added on, plus ive always believed type r's should stay NA since thats what they were truly made for.

Both great cars tho.
