Honda's aren't meant to be compared 1320 to 1320 in the first place, it's just silly.
Three of my friends just bought GSRs (2000 stock, 2000 stock, 1998 w/ short ram), all of which I've driven. I don't regret paying thousands more for my R, it's a much better starting point.
Shingo makes a good point, if you're going for boost, stick with the GSR. You'll hate the short gears & high compression on the R.
