i dunno, we would need more details on both cars to really tell you. look them both up and kbb and see what it says for a general idea.

Depends on what you want. Too many factors come into play. Mileage, condition, year...so on.

i would only do it if its has the same title status, if not better (Clean), and within 1 or 2 year difference 98+..

the kbb value of a gsr clean title is surely more valued than a civic si. if they were in the same year w/ same usage

If KBB has the prices off by that much, you might as well keep it, especially considering you said your Si is in mint condition and the Integra not so much. Also, you said your Civic has about 35k less miles on it.

The GSR is faster, but in this case, it's not worth a straight trade. You want to ride in a clean car. <-- just my .02

Depends on what you like more.? If your SI is clean and you don't gotta do any cosmetic work then i say stick with that.

Agreed.

I'd keep the Si over the Integra though. Sure, the power is good, but I just can't get used to the Integra. For one, if I were buying one I'd have to swap the front. I just am not a huge fan of the beady eyed headlight look. Then the second thing is the dash just looks too dated to me. They should have changed it in '98 when they changed some other things.

I completely agree with NOFX. Without a jdm front the tegs look silly. With that 1.5K difference you could boost and be much faster than a b18 if you are worried about power that is.

i restate my last statement, the si is more valued than the gsr.. maybe cuz of rarity..
but
i how ever disagree with all the others, i actually perfer an integra,

i used to have a b20vtec ls with 98 conversion and now i have a 99 civic ex w/ si full conversion (motor, exterior brakes everything)

without hesiatationm, i would choose the teggy over the civic, i feel that the teggy has more options to mess around with, i.e jdm conversion, itr conversion replicate, as for the civic, all you can pretty much do is another motor swap which is pretty pointless since u already started with a b-series... no matter how much u spend, your si will never look like a real replica civic type r.. lol

2nd. i feel that the teggy handles better than civic and feels more sportier,..

thats just me though
