Default EK Coupe with GSR Swap

Alright, I've done all my homework, and I know what I need to do, and how to do it, but everybody's doing hatches with B18c swaps and all this stuff, but what about the EK coupes does anyone have a GSR swap in there coupes, and if so what kinda numbers would the EK coupe see with a GSR swap EX due to the body weight? and would the EK out run the Integra GSR body with the same hp and torque and same mods?

it all depends on the driver. you can have a new driver driving an h22 coupe against an integra gsr and have the gsr smoke it cuz the h22 would be spinning down the road.

well i have an lsvtec ek coupe and my friend has a gsr ek coupe and we never know who is going to win when we race becuase it is so close. we both pull on gsr's with the same work and i know atleast i can bairly pull on a type r with i/h/e/vtec controller. i have raced a gsr hatch eg and he pulled out of the whole one car and i was closing the gap the whole race. so take it for what its worth

I heard the B series is kinda heavy...but when my pops and his friend did the swap, I didnt seem heavy at all..but people say its almost the same size as the H series.

i have a 97 coupe with a gsr in it. i love it, honda should have put that engine in the si instead of the 1.6, the extra displacement helps alot. the extra tourqe makes all the difference in the world.
