I can kinda of see how they had the integra so they didnt need the Lude. But the Integra was stripped down, it weighed less but on the other hand it didnt have all if the features a Lude has and even being heavier a DOHC VTEC and Sh are still quicker from the factory than a GSR. Type Rs dont count cause they werent a major production car. Werent they kind of limited. But the Price tag on a GSR being quite a bit cheaper and only being a couple of tenths slower might have something to do with it. I think overall it was just a time and a place in the market for a front drive sports coupe heaftilly priced that it just couldnt survive.
