im just posting in her because it involves the s2000, opinions may be biased though - lol - anything i should be looking out for?

I MAY have the opportunity to sell my car and get an s2000 in great condition for pretty good money.

background on the cars:
MY 1998 Integra GSR 19,000 original miles
- Greddy 18g turbo kit, LOTS of mods
- made 200whp and 170ftq at 7psi with stock cat and Mugen exhaust

2004 S2000 with 12k miles (fairly desperate sellers, moving in a month)
- white with tan interior
- otherwise stock

If i could get GOOD money for my GSR would you guys opt for the s2000?

 

 

do it ... you wont be disappointed ... i guarantee

 

do you really have to ask a question like this???

s2000 > any gsr (doesn't matter what you go under the hood)

thanks for the responses, this is what i expected from the s2000 forum

funny the Integra forum is leaning toward the teg... haha

too bad there isnt a General Honda/Acura forum

 

so y dont you test drive one and find it out urself ...

 

I don't own an Integra, or an S2000. I have, however, driven a few S2000s and plenty of Integras (including 2 turbo'ed GSRs). And I say get the S2000.

 

If you like playing in the sandbox, stick with the integra turbo...if you're ready to move up to the playground with the big boys...the S2000.

Integra owners are going to say the integra turbo is the better car...and of course, you'd think the same about the S2000 owners, but seriously, its all about what you like to drive. Personally, i find fixed up integras terribly "rice boy"ish (not that the cars are ricey, but their like the epitome of street racers, especially with a turbo). The S2000 is a class up...not just in presence, but also in drivability, you'll never go back to an integra or civic once you've had one of these cars...and quite honestly, once you've driven one, and really ripped on it for a while...you'll totally understand why.

Nothing against front wheel drive cars...but ya know, i like the nice feeling of a squirrley rear end over torque steer myself.

 

That's a very pretty GSR you have there.

If you can, keep it and get the S as a second car. The Greddy turbo isn't going to put your GSR in the range of comparing the two. In my case though, I have a 280hp B-series with a suspension and body rigidity that outdoes the S in stock form.

I get to drive my friend's S all the time as I am the main care taker of it. I had a chance to run both cars on a mountain run and I have to say I prefer mine. There is nothing like boost.

I do love the S very much and it is much classier than the GSR by far. Yes, the S is the grown up car that will get you the looks and the ladies. I keep wanting to trade mine too but just can't justify giving up 60hp and paying 2x the money when I can smack around stock S' right now anytime.

My opinion may change once we put some more toys on the S though...

So yeah, in your case, go for it but only if you're done with upgrading the GSR.

 

If you dont pick up the S, hit me up with an email of the people selling. Im in the market.

Nice teg btw, super clean.

Judging by the way you worded the poll questions, I think you have already made up your mind.

 

getting both cars is totally out of the question due to insufficient funds - lol

 

S2000.

Gotta grow up sometime.

shuttup .. ure OLD

 

gsr = fwd
s2000 = rwd

enough said with that...

 

At 19, it may not be worth paying the higher insurance rates. Call your agent and find out how much they will go up.

FWD doesn't suck.

 

I voted to keep the gsr. i always liked mine. i also like my s. your car is real clean and it looks like you put a lot of time into it. keep it!!!!!

 

that's a VERY clean looking dc2. 18k miles in 7 years..might as well keep the dc2 since u drive it sooo little..

 

that is a gorgeous integra, I like it alot but I would say if you have the chance go with the s2k, I test drove one and loved it, the only thing I didnt like was the wind noise but I'm sure you get used to it

 

The interior design in the S is soooo perfect. The placement of the wheel, pedals, seat & shifter can't be better in my opinion.

don't know if I would trade in an integra that nice super clean!!

 

that's an hard trade....BUT i'd still go with the S

 

That's a real purdy GSR ya got there...

Yeah...it kinda does.

 

Both car are awsome but personnaly I would move to the S2000 with no hesitation... buy another car for a beater and slowly upgrade the S2000.
