GS-R performance specs?
That is an great resource. Now my question why is it so many people switch to a GSR motor?
I own a 98 GSR myself and like the car but it is only .4 seconds faster in 0-60 and around one second in the 1/4 mile vrs RS GS etc?
When I test drove a special edition before I bought my GSR I actually felt like it was a bit quikcer off the line.
Why all the swaps? Is it easier or more worth while to modify a GSR engine?

The LS engine has more torque so that is why it feels quicker off the line. A GSR engine can give you a nice relatively quick daily driver with a few mods. However many people with the LS engine either turbo it or to a LS/Vtec which both will be faster than a GSR motor. Most people swap the GSR motor into their hatch since it is usually an easy way to get into the 13s.

Not on my watch.
I have half a mind to close this thread down now...as a pre-emptive strike.
