DA GSR vs. DB8
I've been contemplating of maybe if possible to find a good condition, decent mileage and prefferably at least mostly stock DA GSR of just doing a straight trade with my DB8. I know the DA is rare as hell, although the 4door GSR is also rare. Anyone have any thoughts on which one might be rarer. Any inputs of whether this would be a fair trade or is the DA worth more since it is pretty rare?

The 92-93 GSR's are DB2. Yea they are pretty rare but in the end its all up to you which one you like more. Even though they are rare there are very few people out there that will pay good money for them. I had one and when it got totaled the insurance only gave me $3k for it to give you an idea, and mine had no prior body damage, interior was mint, and it was only on 170k.
Yea, insurance was only going to give me $1700 for my 92 LS with 146k after it was totalled, I miss my DA though and I've always loved the GS-R ones even if the motor is a little smaller than what I got now.
Thanks for the DB2 thing, I couldn't remember whether it was a DB1 or DB2, so I just put DA GSR. I guess the DA 4 doors are the DB1's then.

Sell your DB8 to me
Just got into a 4 door integra myself and like it very much for a daily driver. Not a fan of the DA chassis very much at all.... in any aspect

if that's the chassis code for a four door 2nd gen integra... now that's pretty unique... more than the db8

yeah, they're hit or miss. you either love 'em or hate 'em. at least the 98-01 front is more pleasing than the 94-97 <--- now that one is straight up bug eyed! i can say that because i own both.

just got a 93 da9 and swapped a b18c1 into it, after my 98 gsr was stolen. id have to say that although i miss the dc2, i love my da9 so much more. just be prepared to solve funny little da problems for the first few months. http://www.g2ic.com ftw!
