Type R no good for boost because of their Compression 11.1:1 against the GS-R 10.1:1
but whats alredy been said is very true... both great cars
only way to really determine what which one is what your gonna do with it...

That is a lie there. I know of two that are boosted and have no problems.Originally Posted by Whatthatslame
If you really want to get down to the differences and which one would be better to build then Talk to Mike (Vteckidd). Also he will tell you that a high compression motor can be boosted. It is all in the tuning.
I hope you two never post in the tech section with your knowledge...
600lbs??? what the hell could you take off a honda to make it 600lbs lighter? We have two completely stripped honda challege prepped del sols and couldn't get that much weight off before the full cages...and ITR's are no where near stripped.Originally Posted by HondaCRXVtec
The rev limiter is just under 8,700 on the ITR...i think mine is 8,622 with a '98 OBD2a P73 ECU.
The brace under the seat is on the GS-R and ITR, i think it's more for safety then making the chassis rigid...i pulled mine out and saved about 30lbs.
...tell that too anotherRRR that's running 10's in his...compression is nothing a deck plate and pistons won't fix. Overall the B18C5 is a better engine to start with but you have to pay the price for it.Originally Posted by Whatthatslame
600lb is wayyy off, even gutting your interior won't take off 600lb, but either way go get a R dude, you won't regret it, except when insurance kicks your ass.
