You're the same guy that was looking to help me out w/ a mechanic in southern/central PA, and now you're calling me a dick, nitpicker, pathetic, and telling me I have no life? Thanks, you sound like a great guy.

I was simply correcting your mistake.

Here's my proof, where's yours?

2.) http://69.53.28.141/specifications.html

No it doesn't. And it is good that you tried to search the Honda website for you info. But, you don't need to go off on someone who corrects you. We want people to get the facts.

My buddys RSX-S which i ****in love will rape my GS-R, they run like 14.8-14.9's stock, whereas GS-R's run 15.3-15.5 stock

WHACK!

GSR'S OWN YOU!

The streets hate me,
but it made me an animal.
Always listen to an old man when hes speaking,
and learn how to analze a man when he creeping.
Thats street knowledge,
write it down and speak about it!

ITS ALL MATHEMATICS:bandito:

of course the k20 is the future of honda and motors.. responds well to bolt ons.. but it will not be compared to the ITR.. it isnt all about going in a strait line seeing who can beat who.. if your going to autox or worry about handeling.. the GSR outpreforms the RSX in many ways.. now bringing the ITR in the picture is a totally different subject. The ITR is one of the best handeling FWD car in the world.. with the power to back it up.. ITRs are just a work of art h:

Once again...

Car and Driver
But don't be deceived. Although the RSX--even the hot-rod Type-S--exhibits the resistance to turn-in (read, understeer) common to virtually all front-drive cars, there's far less of it here than in the GS-R, and it's balanced by a willingness for the rear end to slide when the driver backs off the throttle or applies a touch of brake. It's called oversteer, a trait treasured by enthusiasts and rare in cars with a pronounced forward weight bias (61 percent of it up front in the Type-S) and with front wheels that are required to transmit both power and steering inputs. And it's all the sweeter here for its forgiving nature. The Type-S can be coaxed into a modest four-wheel drift, but it returns to the path of righteousness with a little waiting and perhaps a hint of opposite lock.

Understeer is the usual penalty for overdoing it, but we were pleasantly surprised at how responsive the Acura is to the throttle. Simply ease off as the car drifts wide of the chosen line, and it obediently tightens back up. There is some body rotation available if you brake deep into the bends, but the RSX is mainly yaw averse.

It's also important to note:

Car and Driver
Turns out that was a bit conservative, because this new 200-hp replacement for the Integra got the job done in just 6.1 seconds. Furthermore, it bested the GS-R's quarter-mile time by 0.8 second and 5 mph (at 14.8 seconds at 95 mph) and even eclipsed the Type R's time of 15.2 seconds at 93 mph.

Overall, although the RSX might not feel quite as responsive as the old GS-R, the new Type-S provides a comfortable balance between extreme sportiness and luxury cruising.
