Go with the gsr, you will be much happier in the end. I have driven both and I really didn't like the B16 motor. If I was you I would go with the gsr.

all these plans to do to the gsr
what year gsr?

I would go with the gsr! if it was for free! They are a really nice car!

The b18c1(guessing) is a really nice power plant. The gsr is eye turning, fun to drive car!

If I were to keep your brothers car... I would swap in a b20 block and go with a NA "vtec monster"!

Good Luck

get the GSR, take the motor out. sell the body, buy your brothers car, sell the b16, swap in the b18c and buy a turbo kit with the extra money. then you will have a hella fast car

Not that the b16's bad or anything, but you'd just be happier wih the gsr.

go for the gsr, maybe if your brother had a b16 pwered EG hatchback then it would be more difficult to decide.
