hey if anyone can help me i just really neew to know wich tops out higher a gsr or an integra type r? tell me before i buy my first car.

 

If that's all your worried about, get a GSR. The gearing is slightly longer on the GSR, so it's got a couple MPH on the R.

 

but wich one tops out higher? the gsr?

 

oh yeah and i need to know wich year is the best to buy.

 

The GSR has longer gears, so in theory, it's faster top-end. There isn't a governer, it's drag limited (not enough power to fight the wind). The Type-R has more power, so I'd assume it would get closer to top end.

Really though, I took my Type R to 142 indicated on the highway once. No one needs to go that fast.

94-95 had an older diagnostics system (OBD-I) that responds pretty well to mods. If you're getting a GSR, those are the years to get.

They only brought the Type R over in 97,98,00,01. You'll be paying a premium for it, so if you aren't willing to plunk it down, just get the GSR.

 

aights thanks

 

What are you looking for....

 

The Type R is drag limited to 143 mph. Its redline is 8400 rpm whereas the GSR is redlined at 8000. Type R can safely be revved to 9k rpm and many people with aftermarket ECU's (Mugen, Spoon, Hondata) do just that.

 

if you're asking this question i'm not sure if you need a type-R for your first car

 

If you're basing your car purchase on which car TOPS OUT higher then I don't think you should be on the road, period.

The ITR has a higher top speed rating than the GSR. Have fun exploring 140 mph in that street race of yours.
