si handling vs gsr handling
aight i got a gsr but im getting a EG. I know the EG cant be faster so I just gonna make it better handling.
with full coil over set up, LCA and lower tie bar will an EG handle better than a stock Gsr? I know gsr is actually a "sprts" car and a civic is just well a civic hahah

quality parts of the following:
1. 22mm rear sway bar from ITR with ASR subframe brace
2. Good coilovers or GC/Koni, no cheap ebay or no-name
3. good tires. I'm talking Azenis RT-615
those 3 and you'll get better handling then a Integra R...easily. Most of it will come from the tires.
forget, strut braces, forget tie bar (ASR acts as a tie bar anyways), forget that crap and focus one what will give you the biggest upgrade. The 3 things i've posted.

Re: si handling vs gsr handling (alwaysoverkill)
i have 2 of the 3....i need a sway bar for my hatch....really swirly in the rear...does that sound right
it seemed like the rear wouldn't follow the front
i have
GC's on KYB 8 ways
and falken ziex's 50 series...
but no sways and only a front strut bar
i think i hvae a GSR sway bar for free coming from a friend so i'll use that and see what happens....sorry to thread jack

Re: si handling vs gsr handling (DC2jdmIntegra)
when you REALLY start to mod the car, all your left with is which frame is stiffer, which has the shorter wheelbase, cause the Teg and EG's suspension are almost identical, front and reart suspension geometry is the same. So stiffen the EG cause its light, and there ya go. Now if your talking one vers another per cost per item, thats anothe story.
You WILL want a sway bar on the back of the EG, regardless of anything, it makes it SO much better to steer.
