GSR or RS???

my hatch + $1000 for stock 1995 Silver RS with 75k clean title
my hatch + $1300 for stock 1994 Black GSR with 140k salv title
both integras bodys are clean
im pretty sure im going with the RS because of the mileage...but what do you guys think?

I'd go for the RS as well. The GSR is one year older, has about twice as many miles, and has a salvaged title. On top of that, you'll have to pay $300 more for it. Yeah, go with the RS.

you may not care about a salvage title but blue book does.
go for the RS you will be much happier, it will be worth more in the long run not only because of the title but because of the year and miles as well.

Get the RS!
Why?
Color:
Silver is much better than black in terms of keeping it nice looking. I used to have a pristine repainted black hatch and it was bitch to keep clean and keep cobweb looking scratches off of it.
I now have a repainted silver hatch and it looks better at well over a year old than the black hatch did a few months after it was painted.
Weight:
The RS will be a great deal lighter than the GS-R due to the lack of moonroof. It will also be stiffer - look at why Honda/Acura made the Type R with no moonroof.
Mileage:
140K isn't bad, but 75K is much better. You can go with a nice turbo set-up on that LS or even build the LS engine with either a nice built LS head with good cams and CTR pistons to up the CR, or you could go LS/VTEC (I'm not a fan, but it's an option) and be faster than the GS-R.
Salvage title vs. Clean title:
Salvage titled cars aren't wroth their weight in donkey **** in terms of resale value.
