well there is a huge difference in torque between the 2 cars so in essence it should pull harder.

I have experience with a few flavors of Civic and Integra, and I can honestly say the Integras feel better within the same chassis.

The B18A cars pull every bit as hard as the later models, perhaps better thanks to the 3G's added weight. There is no noticable difference between the 90-91 "130hp" B18A and the 92-93 "140hp" B18A.

As a general rule, the 1G was stiff (suspensionwise,) the 2G was soft, and the 3G is fairly inbetween.


Oh, yeah, the G2 looks better then the bugeye 3G, too. hfawk:

Hate to pick on you man, but almost any decent coilover setup will handle significantly better than having air springs

Wow, guys, thanks for all the insightful replies. I was surprised to get so many replies from people who've had or at least driven both Civics and Integras. Rock on! :irock:
