Default CRX v Integra

Ok so i decided to sell my CRX to free up some cash for my new house but i'm not sure whether to keep my other rex or sell that too and go for an integra, I've never been in a teg and i dont know how they handle? I know that the type r's are like one of the best handling front wheel drive cars in the uk, but i cant afford a type r so it would have to be an import 1.6 and then HMT it

Basically i'm just after some input for those who have had/driven both as the integra is quite rare over here, we only got the type r unless its an import

I've only been in newer integras, (96 GSR's and so on) and I would rather have a CRX any day!! Smaller, lighters, better looking. If your gonna drop the money into buying a integra, drop it intothe crx instead!

I have driven them all from the normal LS Integras to the all mighty Type R beast

The type r is the ultimate for handaling, and the motor is good as well, but nothing beets a GSR the motor is boost friendly, the handaling is all most the same except the braking part is a bit dif, cause the type r is a 5 bolt, biger rotars, and the gsr there 4 bolt a bit smaller, but bigger then the sir... If I were you just import an LS or a GSR them both are good, the LS wasent realy made for the track so don't expect much cause it's the lowest model ever for integra and cheep as well, but the motor is low compresion so when it comes to boosting that biach! It's a beast! so yeah....

Here is some pics, chose which one you like!... hehe

They feel very similar to me. I drove my friend Bill's old Integra (91), same engine as me and everything.. Handling felt a little stiffer than my CRX, but mostly felt the same. Both are good cars, GL with whatever you do.

the power steering is nice but if your are track racer it doesn't really help you to get the corners in as smoothly or if you are on the drag strip.
