You're gonna regret giving up the gsr, you already put alot of work into it. And now you're gonna go back to 200 hp just to have a "new car" and warranty when your teg works perfectly fine? You already mentioned you'd wanna do a few mods of on the type-s but acknowledged the fact that you know it'll void the warranty. Right there you can tell you love a tuner car. Use that $500 you need to get your 400 whp FTW!!!

Yes K > B, agreed.

I can comfortably afford my Evo too, but it would be nice to have that extra money a month and be able to mod a cheaper car more.

Yes, you guys are right. I'll probably hate myself for not finishing the Integra. I guess a used RSXS in a year or two wouldn't be so bad when I can afford both. Having a brand new car would be nice, but I don't think life will be the same without a project. Thanks for everyones input! Helped me make my decision!

:cheers: :yay: good for you. i was in a similar boat as you, as was the person I bought my turbo from. he never finished his project, but when he drove my finished project, he was uber bummed out that he didnt do it.

but i do understand the desire for a newer, close to stock vehicle.

Yea, the itch was just overwhelming me. I love rsx's and am angry that they are discontinued. I'll just get a used one in a year or two.

I can't part with the teg, tooo much money and time has gone into it.

yeah i feel u on the not wanting to part with something that you spent so much time and money on.

with me, i just didnt want the car to blow up, get wrecked, stolen, or vandalized while it was in my possession. low and behold, it gets totalled shortly after I sold it.

oh well.
