I think its a decent trade just because the motor it has it makes it worth it.

both are very sexy, but remember when you change vehicles you run the risk of the other one not working properly and there isn't anything you can do about it. Just something to keep in mind. .

Edit- It says next to your name that you're from Georgia and yet you have Connecticut plates?

borrow the car for a couple of days before you decide. there are little differences that may get to you later.. steering rack is different on ek; turning is going to require more turning of the steering wheel. power brakes, power windows, power steering, abs? sun roof? i've had both cars, and i have different likes and dislikes for each one...

Damn tough choice, hatch is lighter so it will be quicker, i say the hatch but go with OpTiX619's idea.

i would keep the DC and i just love the color. the ek is cool and all but not worth trading your DC for.

i say do what optix619 suggested, it's good to test out the merchandise before taking the plunge.

my vote is to keep the teg if your turboing it.

The difference from the ITR and the GSR will slim down once you hit boost, the tuning is more important.

Kepp the teg.

dude. your gsr is tight as ****. i wouldn't even consider the trade for an EK (even though i &lt;3 ek), EXCEPT for the fact that it has the b18c5 in there. if it were me and i felt like i needed a new change/project, i'd go with the EK, but the nsx color is sick. good work with the teg. i plan to do the black top with bottom painted scheme on my ek too.
