GET THE GSR OR GET THE RSX (non Type S)?

juniorhaven · 03-01-2002, 06:30 AM

since its not a type s or the up and coming rsx type R, go with the lightess of the two. I would say rsx cause it looks sweet, but thats not the point. ITS SPEED DUDE

IMO GS-R, but there are alot of unanswered questions like what are your future goals for the car. the non-type s isn't gonna offer performance anywhere near a GS-R, so if you want looks and piece of mind about being a 1st owner then get RSX, but if you want to kill some v8's and hang with most imports and want to see your new shinny SS Header then get the GS-R.

With the money you save buying a GSR, you can use for mods on it. In fact I'm at the same point of the road as you, I been deciding whether to stay with the Integra family, or go to rsx, but now that I read more about it, and learned more about the RSX. I decided to stick with another integra. The rsx is nice in its way, but if its not a Type-S. its probably not worth it. There is way more aftermarket support for the integra, and yes I know that in a couple years the RSX will have tons of stuff coming out, but I think the Integra, is overall a better car. Unless its true and we do get the Type R, then that would be a different story, but thats me, Ijust decided with Integra, and I'm probably going to pick one up this weekend

Even the RSX base is as good or better than the GSR in many aspects. For those that say there are more performance goodies for the B18 in the GSR, keep in mind that the K20 is also offered in the upcoming Civic Si. I didn't really consider the previous gen Si and the B16 to be a lesser motor to the GSR B18. There will still be a lot of go fast goodies out there for the base RSX simply due to the fact that many people who buy the 2003 civic si will still like to soup up their cars.

Anyways the RSX is much more refined than the Integra and its a current car, not some previous gen. model like the 94-01 GSR. Go with the RSX, you won't regret it.

You tell me if this is not a tight a$$ RSX (originally posted in the RSX forum):

SEEN! that looks like my car.

just kidding. thats a hype ride.

Get a GSr, cuz RSX's still can't fill the GSR's shoes. Plus they look whack.

drPheta · 03-01-2002, 11:32 PM

Why?

double wishbone suspension (read Tuan's post on how crappy the McPherson is on the RSX...nothing like the BMW)

Light
the RSX actually feels very cheap inside (though road noise is a little better in the RSX)

RSX is in it's first year of the generation...so give it time to mature and get some tweaks done.

GSR is cheaper = mods

OOOORRRR

you can save your money and wait for the RSX Type-R to come (if it does).

GSR all the way, I still love the '98-'01 look on the tegs much better than any teg they have had or any RSX. The RSX just has a nice interior and IMO, I think it is ugly on the outside...Go with 3rd Gen GSR

cheezthis · 03-02-2002, 01:31 AM

I'd say GS-R. Not that I don't like the RSX, but you can get a much better deal on a GS-R. The RSX is nice; I'm not going to say anything like how "it's not a real Integra" or some other stupid, no fact, crap like that. However, I think the cost is a little high on those when compared to the cost a used GS-R w/low miles.
