hey, if u get a type-r, u dont care bout going fast any more... if i got a type r? i'd leave it STOCK everything..

its hot stuff man. if u can get ur hands on 1? dont let go.. man when u drive a type r, who cares, drive slow.. the bastard next to u wanna race? let him go off all fast feel'n cool.. hahaha, then u drive like normal.. he'll feeeeeel mighty dumb.

remember, if u dont race, u cant lose.. my new motto

oh ya.. u also have to remember, sometimes its not how fast u can go in a straight line.. the type-r is KING at the curves yo! its up there with the M3 when it comes to a narrrrrowwwww curvey road

Yeah, the biggest strength of the Integra is it's handling. Of course, everyone seems to think the 1/4 mile is the one and only test of performance.

I would stick with your LS.. R's are nice and all, but for everyday driving I would stick with your LS, since you have put money into it allready

I would stick with the LS. I've got a GSR and it's gearing is starting to annoy me.. The most annoying part is when I'm on the highway.. It's freakin loud, especially if you've got an exhaust on.. With a ITR.. It'll be even louder on the highway..

--My point is, if you want a daily driver, stick with your LS--

Sell your GS, buy a Type-R and a 1986 Accord for everyday driving. Store the Type-R in the garage for 20 years, sell it and retire!:thumbup:

as good as it sounds to make the ITR more low-key, you would have to sink at least $3k-$4k into paint and body work to make it look right, and the value of the car would go out the window.

Hmm. I'd keep the LS and turbo it- Insurance on an R is bound to be a lot higher. On top of that, TypeR = steal me!
