I'm on the fence. I am either going to buy an Eclipse GSX or Integra GSR. I'm going to make the car into a sleeper. I know the GSX is turbo and has AWD. The GSR has V-Tec. Which car would be the better choice. Both cars are manual and have under 100k, they are about the same price.

gsx, I don't even know why you would think of getting a gsr it may have a high hp to liter ratio but no torque what so ever. I'd say your best choice is a GSX with the turbo, and dsms are cheap to make fast I know somone with a 11 sec type r and he spent almost 3 times as much than my friend did with his tsi and that tsi hits 11s also. Plus vtec is very over rated and awd if better than fwd, fwd is the worst for racing.

yes a gsx is cheaper to build up than an integra, but it all depends on what yoiu like more, they are both great cars to build up. My friend has a low 13 second all motor gsr full weight and its only getting faster i think thats pretty cool. Also, just turboing an integra you can easily run 12's with out many other mods at all. They are around 600 lbs lighter than an eclipse and that make a big diference. Eclipse is easy to build up, awd is awesome, but in general is more likely to give you problems.

You will love the awd compared to just the fwd...
