so i am wondering opions im starting to like the acura integras im kinda intrested in a 01 gs-r but i also do want to do the KLZE swap so i would either do one or the other but it would be nice to hear from people and possibly tell prices of complete motor swap

i get to test drive alot of cars like 50+ per week.
the civic si and integra gsr have a nice sweet spot and a norrow power band and a very well matched trans to keep it in its power band. with lots of mods you can make a terrifying car.
but.
driving it kinda suks . the engine makes no tourque .
you take of in 1st and try not to stall it hit the gas and wait wait then 5k 6k VTEC! then it wakes up and hauls a--. pulls to red line and makes it all seem worth the wait.
so it you putting around town and wana get on it you better down shift in to first to keep up with me.
now.
driving a kl mx3 you got wheelspinning grunt loads of tourque . any time you hit the gas you feel it if will pull . no long wait very drivable
so its all a mater of your driving style and likes.
if you want the fat lady in your lap shoving you in to your seat feeling than go masda an squease the crap out of it!

I drive a very modded klze packed into a 323/interplay 2door hatch
modded as in fat heads and 2.7litre displacement.
its ozzes fat inthe tourque and beg's to be thrashed.
line up a honda, by the time his Vtech kicks in im gone!
even a 2.5 on basic mods in a the mx3 is nice to drive
