Default which honda/acura has the best handling chassis in your opinion?

I'm looking for a new honda/acura project to start on so I can something to play with. I used to have a '95 civic coupe with us gsr swap, ctr cams, skunk2 intake manifold... etc etc and I miss it

So I'd like to see what you guys think is the best handling honda or acura chassis.. please keep in mind that if it is something like a civic or crx etc that I will be swapping the motor (K20, B18, etc)

STOP go back and search the forum

Go back and read the search sticky.
Return from whence you came and read.
Stinky will banish you if you dont read. (its been covered before)

Although the 95 coupe chassis isnt bad at all.

The correct answer to the question is the Acura Integra Type-R.

Scott, who is amazed at how many people can't properly answer a question like this...

Not quite. You need the DC2R. It is truly equal to more than the sum of it's parts. And then you put expensive parts on it - Motons, etc. Then you go and humble, humilate, and destroy your prey.

Scott, who is serious...and that's just nutz...

Honestly...what he said...that and pick the lightest chassis of the bunch.

Scott, who gets carried away sometimes...but you don't know the power of the Type-R...

Search for "chassis" and have fun with the 190,097,435 results you get.

The easy way out here is always to search. The harder way is to TRY being easy, and then have me or someone else tell you to go search. In other words, you waste time by being lazy.
