Help/Advice on Integra

I'm 17 and thinking about buying a integra, cause I'm really into them.

I see theres 5 types, the RS,LS,GS,GSR,TYPE-R and the VTEC engines.

I also see that for the LS you can put a VTEC engine inside it, and turbo it.

Iv been hearing theres a big difference between Turbo and VTEC, I'm not quite sure about them.

My questions:

1. How can you tell the difference between a GSR and a TYPE-R?

2. Do the Type-R cars have the logo showing on the exterior of the car making it a legit Type-R? or it doesn't have to show?

3.Whats the difference between VTEC and TURBO? Are they both the same? Or are they different?

4.How do you know what's good mileage on a Integra?

5.What is the standard HP for the RS,LS,GS,GSR,TYPE-R?

---------------
Misc Questions:

1. Is driving stick(manual) hard?

2.Is a integra good for a first car?

3.Do I have to do alot of checkups If I were to get a VTEC based car engine?

4.How can you tell the difference between a good integra and a bad integra?

Thank you for reading this and I hope I can better understand the 'INTEGRA'

Since I'm bored I'll attempt to answer these questions..

1. If the car was unmolested, easiest way to tell is to tell by the emblem, the Type R has a bigger spoiler, I THINK the Type R is 5 lugs, the RPM redline probably reads around 8400rpm or so..If the car was modified, many of that was changed to duplicated the Type R look..you can tell by the engine code.

2. Out of the factory, all Type R's had that logo, I believe. But then again, it could be an imposter if you don't know what you are looking for.

3. They are two completely different systems. 'Nuff said.

4. Since they are pretty old cars, I want to say around 100k or so is decent. Personally, I try to stay away from ridicoulously low mileage cars being that old because it has been barely driven and a car likes to be driven.

5. GS-R is 170, Type R is 195, RS and LS are around 140, I believe.

Misc.

1. At first, yes, but the best way to learn is to get out on the street and DRIVE!

2. Yes.

3. Whether it be VTEC or not, checkups are important, preventive maintenance, etc. on every car if you want to keep it for a long time.

4. Same as any other car and most likely a GS-R has been abused unless it's from an old person or someone that doesn't know what they have.


This is just out of my head withouth researching anything so if I'm wrong on something, feel free to correct it.
