id think that the 95ls would have better acceleration than the 91, being that it has a different motor with more displacement. But i don't know the exact times, just my perception. :/

you're wrong... they are the same motor with the same displacement.... 91 has b18a1 and 95 has b18b1... the codes are different but the only difference (other than obd-0 vs obd-1) is that the cams in the b18b1 are a little more aggressive.

the b18a1 makes 130 hp dont know the torque specs.
the b18b1 makes 140 hp and i *think* 117 ft lbs.

so, in theory, the 95 will be faster but the power difference is minimal and it will really boil down to drivers and the condition of the motor. if you are asking cuz you dont know which you wanna buy, go based on price or condition or which style you prefer. the cams are an easy upgrade, you can find them in for sale forums everywhere and have the same power ratings as the b18b1

yup, the main factor would be body style and price with those two...pretty much the same car other than that.

my g2 (90 LS for the record) was a much harsher ride in stock form than is my 94 LS.... much stiffer, less body roll... maybe something else you would want to take into consideration. a drive longer than 45 minutes or so required stretching and backrubs
