for those of you that know about Acura Integras..



Which is is the greater one..
i know there are gs, gsr, and ls's////// so what is the order. meaning which is better than other and wahts teh difference? thanks..

 

ls< gs< gsr

 

so being GRS the fastest then comes the GS and then 3rd place the LS? or wrong shit /// i hate being in a hurry..

 

GSR is the fastest then GS then LS

 

gsr<type r

 

typr R's are sick

 

the GS and the LS have the same motor. they're just trim levels. The GSR has The VTEC, Type-R is the best

 

Type-R = Rare and $$$

 

ok,

LS has same motor as GS ...GS has leather interior.


GSR has a VTEC motor in it which makes it faster stock than the LS/GS

The Type R is obviously the fastest out of all of them....however...

if you are planning on forced induction you may want to think about the LS as it has been proven to respond better to turbo/super charging.

Good luck.

 

Correct.

ITR > GSR > GS=LS

 

friend looking into getting one... one with 70,000 miles for 7000.00 LS... wat you think. i looked into auto trader and only 2 came out and abot same price.. she wants it for transportation.. not to hook up or watever. just reliable..and gas saver too.. thast why she looked into this one. and she has hook up at AC dealer if any problems later on. even though she is taking her friend mechanic to check it out before..

 

what year?

 

make sure the motor wasn't driven into the ground. Lotta kids out there think they're in a ferrari and beat the shit outta of these integra's. What year is it? 70,000 isn't a whole lot of miles on that engine. If you treat it right it'll run for 200,000.

 

opps how could i forget... 2000

 

i got an error message.. i dont get it. then i got disconected from aol.. well its a 2000... wat you think

 

gs=ls

 

welcome to the conversation. Your input is greatly appreciated.

 

2000 integra ls, it depends on the seller, if the seller doesnt seem like the type of person to beat a car in, then go for it, if its a teenager, or early 20s id be careful

 

I had 3 Tegs, 93 RS, 95 GS-R, 98 GS-R...loved them all and they were all built much better than my CLS was.

 

i had a 90 ls with a jdm b16, loved the car sold it for the down payment on my tl

 

I autocross with a few guys with Integras. I've driven an LS and a GS. It's okay if she's not gonna "hot rod it " or really get into it. my one buddy has a GS-R which on an Integra stock scale 1 being a POS and 10 being DANNNNNNG. I'd give it like an 8 and type R a 9.5. The Type R in it's day was the pioneer for the WRX Sti and Evo 8. It was the poor boy's vette.

 

WEll thank alot guys. i know i can always come here and count on someone helping out.. well she will go with her friend mechanic to check it out before she buys it. But i dont think she will have any luck knowing who drove it since its from a local dealer..

 

Werent the later model Teg GS and LS sohc vtec while the GSR was dohc vtec

 

if u have teggie type r you better sleep with one eye open... they are stolen from driveways here... really nice car, hard to find a orignal type r in mint condition...

goddamn thugs steal a nice type r and put the parts on their shitty integra... fuckin haters

 

gs ls didnt have vtec but are DOHC

 

GS and LS have identical motors. only difference is the luxury level. Get a gsr(or type R)

 

Are you from Richmond Hill? Cant have any type of Honda over there. My friends SI got stripped right in his backyard while everyone was home. Cant have shit in that neighborhood.

 

Richmond Hill?

 

The Tegs were never SOHC, AFAIK.

 

Ny not Canada.

 

I hear ya but a turboed ITR is sick. BTW why is this in Ramblings????

 

Type R is the legendary, even RSX cannot beat it

they do have a RSX type-R in japan, but still lacks the perfformance of the old type R

 

I had a 98 GS-R as well. Still the best car I've ever had.

 

my g/f drives a GSR stick

 

I have this Best Motoring tape (pic below) comparing both the DC3 and DC5 ITRs and the DC5 totally outperformed the DC3. The USDM RSX-S is not as sharp as the DC5 ITR.

 

Integra
See sig

Love it, surely lots more fun than my CLS was.

 

I have a 2001 LS. The 2000 and 2001 models are bulletproof ... people said "it's getting old!" past 1999 but they last few years had no recalls and are well-built.

Yes, the 140 hp engine in the LS/GS is DOHC.

Very reliable, well built, practical and sporty cars with high insurance. Economical on fuel and maintenance though.

Past 100 mph, the engine makes a lot of noise but it's not bad or anything.
A Honda engine is quite happy at 4000 rpm. Handling excellent.
[I've been told that past 90 mph, a Pontiac Grand Am/Oldsmobile Alero handles like crap. That's funny because you see so many of them going that fast, say, between Detroit and Lansing on I-96.]

 

I have an '00 Integra Type R, and I'll tell you its by far the most fun car I've EVER driven; and I've driven ALOT of cars! The only other car that comes close or is slightly better IMO is an EVO. It has been completely reliable; except for a few tranny issues; but warranty covered that! If you can find any I would highly suggest it, but as far as safety goes; be careful! This car has given me headaches because of fckin ricers. I get a lot of looks and this is a highly stolen vehicle. You have to be extremely careful where you bring it; because its not safe anywhere! Thieves are def. on the look out for this car and as a matter of fact one of my buddies og. '97 R was stolen right out of his driveway in a somewhat upperclass neighborhood. So caveat emptor!

 

I'd never own a EVO I've driven one after 30-35 k on the odometer the clutch craps out.
Now as far as the Type R is fun to drive. I agree with that 100%. however have you drove a 05 RSX Type S. It's right up there man.

 

I have an 04 Type-S, its fun and all, but i just miss my torque out of my old 3.0

Also had a 96 GSR and that was a fun car, and with the bolt-ons I had on it I think it would take my RSX
