ctr motor will cost more... i'd go with the gsr, even if it is slower you can build it up better. 1.8 > 1.6 .. you will like hte torque

Get a GSR with a B16 tranny. No LSD like the CTR, but still fun

Get the ctr motor it has more overall power than a gsr motor even though its a 1.6.
1.6 stock ctr motor &gt; 1.8 stock gsr motor.

Go 4 a JDM GSR, more torque but with 5 less horsepower. (JDM = 180 hp) It's cheaper and you could add an LSD for like 300 bucks.
